简要总结
The goal of this single arm intervention study is to investigate the safety and performance of a suturing device for closure of the midline incision after open abdominal surgery. The study population consists of 38 patients selected for open abdominal procedures for malignant and benign colorectal disease.
The main question it aims to answer is:
• If the device facilitates a Suture-Length to Wound-Length (SL/WL) ratio of 4:1
Participants laparotomy wound will be closed with the device at the end of the operation and closure related data as closure time and SL/WL ratio will be calculated. The wound will be assessed for infection during the postoperative stay and the chart will be reviewed for wound dehiscence and wound infection.

- •Allergy: history of anaphylaxis to drugs or allergic reactions in general, which the Investigator considers could affect the outcome of the investigation
- •Diseases: known or identified at surgery disseminated cancer disease; collagen diseases and immune deficiency disorders, according to the Investigator's opinion. Significant history of renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, respiratory, skin, haematological, endocrine or neurological diseases that according to the Investigator's opinion may interfere with the aim of the investigation

- •Vulnerable subjects: Individuals unable to fully understand all aspects of the investigation that are relevant to the decision to participate, or who could be manipulated or unduly influenced because of a compromised position, expectation of benefits or fear of retaliatory response (ISO 14155:2020 §3.55) will be excluded
结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of patients with Suture length/Wound length (SL/WL) ratio ≥ 4
时间窗: Measured during laparotomy closure.
SL/WL-ratio of patients laparotomy closures will be calculated by measuring (centimeter) and dividing the length of used suture with the length of the laparotomy wound.
次要结局
- Numbers of sutures used(Counted during laparotomy closure)
- Surgeons´ satisfaction with final closure result(After laparotomy closure)
- Incision closure time(Measured during laparotomy closure)
- Stitch count(Measured during laparotomy closure)
- Surgeons´ comfort with device during closure(After laparotomy closure)
