This trial studies a new device designed to clear blockages in Jackson-Pratt drains placed in the abdomen after surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces complications and improves drain function.
This study tests if wearing a special coverall gown while moving around after surgery helps reduce anxiety and improve comfort, privacy, and satisfaction. It is for patients who have a urinary catheter and surgical drains.
This trial compares taking off the surgical dressing one day after surgery versus waiting about 6 days after elective (planned) abdominal surgery to see which approach reduces the risk of surgical site infections.
This trial is testing whether wearable sensors can help doctors monitor patients more closely after major surgery to catch problems early. You might be able to join if you are having a surgery with a cut of 2 inches or longer.
This trial enrolls adults who are scheduled for planned hernia/abdominal wall surgery to learn more about patients’ experiences and follow-up through questionnaires. If you qualify and agree, your study participation may help improve how care is planned around surgery.
This trial compares reusable and single-use surgical drapes and gowns to see which is better for the environment. It includes people having certain types of surgery with at least one incision larger than 5 cm (or 3 cm for children under 16).
