Preventive wound care for high-risk gynecologic abdominal surgery
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a special type of wound dressing called ciNPWT (a vacuum-assisted bandage that removes fluid) before surgery can prevent wound problems in women having gynecologic surgery who are at higher risk for complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult woman scheduled for planned abdominal surgery for gynecologic reasons (such as fibroids, endometriosis, or cancer)
- You are identified as 'high-risk' for wound healing problems based on a clinical assessment when you arrive at the hospital
- You are willing and able to sign informed consent to participate in the study

This study is testing a special bandage (closed incision negative pressure wound therapy) on the groin wounds after ECMO tubes are removed. The goal is to prevent wound problems like infection or slow healing.
This study tests whether placing a small drain under the skin after a deep abdominal incision for gynecologic cancer surgery helps prevent wound problems. It may be a good fit if you have a thicker layer of belly fat and are having a planned surgery.
This study tests a special vacuum bandage (called NPWT) to prevent wound infections after emergency belly surgery in people with diabetes and high infection risk. The goal is to see if this dressing helps heal better than standard care.
This trial tests if negative pressure wound therapy (a special dressing that uses gentle suction) helps heal large cuts from emergency belly surgery better than a standard dressing. It may reduce infections and improve recovery.
This trial tests whether a special vacuum-sealed dressing (called VSD) helps heal surgical wounds that became infected after obstetric or gynecological surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment speeds healing and reduces complications.
This trial tests a special vacuum bandage placed over your closed surgical cut to help prevent infection after open abdominal surgery. It's for people whose wounds are clean or only slightly contaminated.
