In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This prospective randomised trial will investigate the effect of four different suturing techniques (Monocryl, Vicryl Rapide with Indermil skin glue, Dermabond Prineo, and Stryker Zip) on the amount of aberrant wound recovery within 14 days after total hip arthroplasty at the RHOC in Zoetermeer, The Netherlands. This will be done by assessing photographs of the plaster and photographs of the operation wound with a self-developed classification model. The photographs of the plaster will be taken by the test subject at home at 3 days and 11 days postoperatively. The photographs of the operation wound will be taken by a member of the research team, and the doctor's assistant, respectively, during a visit to the outpatient clinic at 7 days and 14 days postoperatively. Hypothesis: Monocryl sutures give the highest amount of aberrant wound recovery within fourteen days after primary THA.
