What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Adhesion Characteristics
Time frame: Up to 1 year
Zuhlke adhesion score (1 - minimum to 4 - maximum) 1. = filmy adhesions, easy to separate by blunt dissection 2. = stronger adhesions; blunt dissection possible, partly sharp dissection necessary; beginning of vascularization 3. = strong adhesions; lysis possible by sharp dissection only; clear vascularization 4. = very strong adhesions; lysis possible by sharp dissection only; organs strongly at
Sponsor's own description
The goal of this study is to test the effects of Seprafilm adhesion barrier on patients who are undergoing open abdomen damage control management for traumatic injuries when compared to no adhesion barrier use. Specifically, the researchers wish to study the effects of Seprafilm adhesion barrier on: * the number and intensity of adhesions, * whether there is any difference between treatment groups (Seprafilm vs. no Seprafilm) who go on to successful definitive abdominal closure, * rate of occurrence of secondary complications (such as abscesses) associated with short- and long-term beneficial effects of reducing adhesion formation,and * whether there is any difference between treatment groups regarding patient functional recovery.
