简要总结
The purpose of this study is to learn how effective each of the two dressings, Silverlon® and AQUACEL® AG, are in preventing post cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) procedure wound infections.
详细描述
This is a single center, prospective, 2-arm randomized, non-blinded study. A total of 100 participants will be assigned to the Silverlon arm and 100 to the AQUACEL AG arm.
The number of procedures to implant CIED has risen in recent years. With this rise has also brought a rise in post-procedure infections. Infections will happen and there is a continued need to improve all aspects of the surgery and post-operative care. Wound coverage with appropriate dressings is one aspect that needs to be studied in CIED implant patients. Silverlon and AQUACEL AG are two options of dressings available for these patients. This study will look to see if one of the two is a better option for post-operative CIED implant patients.

结局指标
主要结局
Pocket Hematoma, Moderate-Severe
时间窗: 7-10 days post implant
A pocket hematoma is an accumulation of blood in or near the surgical incision which occurs because of a defect in hemostasis such as injury to blood vessels. Pocket hematoma is associated with local discomfort, an increased risk of infection, and may require surgical intervention or lead to lengthier hospital stays. Mild - Ecchymosis or mild effusion in the pocket, no swelling or pain to device-pocket (watchful waiting) Moderate - Large effusion in the pocket leading to swelling and causing functional impairment or pain to device-pocket Severe - Any pocket hematoma requiring: Reoperation and/or resulting in prolongation of hospitalization (defined as extended hospitalization or rehospitalization for \>24 hours, postindex surgery, primarily due to hematoma) and/or requiring interruption of OAC (defined as reversal or intentional withholding, in response to pocket hematoma, resulting in subtherapeutic anticoagulation for \>24 hours)
次要结局
- Rash After Removal(At time of dressing removal, up to 10 days post operative)
- Pocket Dehiscence(At time of dressing removal, up to 10 days post operative)
- Site Itching/Burning(At time of dressing removal, up to 10 days post operative)
- Wound Drainage(At time of dressing removal, up to 10 days post operative)
- Skin Erythema(At time of dressing removal, up to 10 days post operative)
