TRICLOSAN COATED POLYDIAXANONE SUTURE VERSUS NONCOATED POLYDIAXANONE SUTURE IN PREVENTING SURGICAL SITE INFECTION IN PERFORATION PERITONITIS: A COMPARITIVE STUDY
Manisha Aggarwal, Ashwani Kumar, Paras Kumar Pandove, Bimaljot Singh Anand.
Triclosan coated suture, surely, helps in preventing one of the most dreaded post operative complication i.e surgical site infection which not only increases short term morbidity of the patient but also has long term implications. The desire of a good cosmetic result post operatively both by the surgeon and the patient is hindered if postoperative surgical site infection occurs. Also, surgical site infection and consequent wound dehiscence can lead to incisional hernia which leads to long term morbidity. Triclosan coated suture cuts down the cost for management of surgical site infection though it is slightly costlier than the conventional non coated suture. So, it can be concluded that triclosan coated PDS is a new hope in the prevention of surgical site infection post operatively.
