About this trial
This is an interventional prevention trial for Complications Wounds
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients undergoing panniculectomy in preparation for renal transplantation at the University of California Davis Medical Center. Patients who are entered into the trial and have 30 days of follow up, and those in the INPWT study arm who successfully complete 7 days of treatment, will be included.
Exclusion Criteria:
- All patients who previously demonstrated a hypersensitivity reaction to adhesives and qualify for panniculectomy in preparation for renal transplantation, or all patients who are undergoing panniculectomy for reasons other than in preparation for renal transplantation (i.e. after massive weight loss or for cosmetic reasons). Patients who do not complete the duration of treatment of negative pressure wound therapy (7 days), or patients who do not follow up for a minimum of 30 days from the date of surgery will be excluded. Adults unable to consent, infants, children, teenagers, pregnant patients and prisoners will be excluded. It is also extremely unlikely, based on our study population, that we will encounter any of these patients.

Arm Type
Placebo Comparator
Active Comparator
Arm Label
Standard Closure
Incisional Negative Pressure Wound Therapy
Arm Description
After surgical closure is complete, the patient receives standard of care operative incision treatment (dermabond/topical skin adhesive).
After surgical closure is complete, an incisional negative pressure wound therapy device is applied to the incision in its entirety. This device is placed on the wound, sterilely, in the operating room, at the conclusion of the procedure. The incisional negative pressure wound therapy device is to remain in place for 7 days, and is removed in clinic after completion.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Major Wound Healing Complications
Abscess, Hematoma or any wound complication requiring return to the operating room.
Minor Wound Healing Complications
Cellulitis, Seroma, Superficial Wound Separation
Secondary Outcome Measures
Time to Drain Removal
Time to final drain removal after the operation

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Incisional negative pressure therapy (INPWT) has previously been shown in certain patient populations to decrease wound healing complications, decrease the rate of hematomas and seromas, as well as have better scar quality. We have found a group of patients, those who have panniculectomies in preparation for renal transplant, with significantly higher rates of wound healing complications. We believe the best way to demonstrate benefits of incisional negative pressure wound therapy will be in this group of patients known to have significantly higher rates of wound complications.
