Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate if a negative-pressure dressing placed over a surgical incision can reduce the risk of developing a surgical site infection compared to a commonly-used sterile gauze incision dressing. In this study, the negative-pressure dressing will be compared to a standard post-surgical sterile gauze dressing. In this study patients will either receive a negative-pressure dressing or a standard sterile gauze dressing

Primary Outcome

Results will be analyzed initially using descriptive statistics. The proportion of SSI in the NPT group will be compared to the standard post-operative dressing group using a chi square test of proportions.
