General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
Randomised controlled trial testing if the antiseptic subcutaneous applied solution SERASEPT is capable of reducing postoperative wound infections compared to NaCl-Solution in visceral surgery
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
All patients were interviewed 30 days postoperatively and asked for pain and satisfaction with the cosmetic result. In case of questions or need for clinical examination, all patients were advised to come to our emergency department.

Notes [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same. Justification: Control group: 228 assigned wound irrigation with 0.9% saline, but due to 3x consent, withdrawn, 5x no wound irrigation: 3x laparoscopic surgery, 1x no skin closure, 1x transanal surgery, 10x wrong irrigation, 2x refusal of surgery only 208 had wound irrigation with 0.9% saline. Experimental gruoup: 228 assigned wound irrigation with 0.04% polyhexanide, but due to 8x consent withdrawn, 1x no wound irrigation: ostomy in incision, 16x wrong irrigation, 1x double randomization 1x surgey canceld |

Statistical analysis description |
The biometric outcome assessor was blinded to the allocation
for the analysis of the trial. The primary hypothesis was analyzed
with cross tabulation and the chi-squared test. We analyzed the
primary endpoint—the rate of SSI within 30 days postoperatively—
with the per protocol population and confirmed the results
with the intention to treat population. For categorical outcomes such
as our secondary parameters, statistical group comparisons were
performed using chi-square test. Because of
