Dyed vs. undyed stitches in skin surgery

This study compares four types of dissolvable stitches used in gum surgery to see which ones cause the least discomfort and irritation. If you have healthy gums and teeth, your feedback about how each stitch material feels could help dentists choose better options for future patients.

This study looks at whether different types of stitches (sutures) can lower the chance of pigment changes—skin color looking lighter or darker—after dermatology surgery. It may help patients who want to reduce the risk of visible skin color changes as their wound heals.

This trial tests if one type of stitch (PDS) is better than another (Vicryl) for closing groin incisions after planned vascular surgery. If you're having elective groin surgery, you may be able to help doctors learn which stitch leads to fewer problems.

This trial compares two types of stitches (polypropylene and polyglactin) used to close wounds on the upper arm or hand after surgery. The goal is to see which one leads to better healing and fewer complications.

This trial is studying whether one type of stitch (polyglactin) works better than another (polypropylene) for closing the belly wall after abdominal surgery. It may help reduce the risk of hernias or other complications.

This trial compares two types of dissolvable stitches to close wounds after abdominal (belly) surgery done through open surgery or small incisions. It aims to see which stitch option works better or is safer for healing and recovery.
