Monoglyde suture study PP data

This is a prospective, single-blind, randomized (1:1), multicentric, two-arm study. The primary objective was to compare subcuticular skin closure with Monoglyde® or Monocryl® suture for wound composite outcomes in the first 30 days postpartum (SSI, wound dehiscence, seroma or hematoma). The secondary objectives were to compare the resultant scar and cosmetic effects, overall intraoperative handling, tissue reaction and other adverse events, bacterial accumulation/growth, time taken to resume normal activities, and the post-operative subject satisfaction score in both the groups. On the day of surgery (Visit 1), all routine procedures were followed pre-, peri-, and post-operatively, according to the standard institutional protocol. After completion of the abdominal procedure, either Monoglyde® or Monocryl® suture was used to approximate the abdominal skin. Post-operative follow-up was conducted on Day 3, Day 4-7, Month 1 and Month 4.
