Study Summary
Pancreaticoduodenectomy is associated with high perioperative morbidity, with surgical site infection (SSIs) being one of the most common complications. A retrospective study at Hopkins on SSIs in these patients identified the rate of SSIs to be 16.7% and pre-operative bile stent/drain and neoadjuvant chemotherapy were independent predictors of surgical site infection. Patients with these factors having a predicted risk of up to 32%. Another subsequent retrospective study demonstrated that the use of negative pressure wound therapy device was significantly associated with a decrease in the rate of SSIs. The hypothesis of the investigator(s) for the current study is that placement of Prevena Peel \& Place Dressing (Negative Pressure Wound Therapy, NPWT) in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy who are at high risk of SSIs will result in a significant decrease in their SSI rate.
