Abstract
A meta-analysis study was conducted to assess the influence of the wound adjuncts therapy of closed incision negative pressure wound therapy (ciNPWT) on stopping groin site wound infection (SWSI) in arterial surgery. A comprehensive literature examination till January 2023 was implemented and 2186 linked studies were appraised. The picked studies contained 2133 subjects with groin surgical wounds of arterial surgery in the picked studies' baseline, 1043 of them were using ciNPWT, and 1090 were using standard care. Odds ratio (OR) in addition to 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to calculate the consequence of the wound adjuncts therapy of ciNPWT on stopping groin SWSI in arterial surgery by the dichotomous and continuous styles and a fixed or random model. The ciNPWT had a significantly lower SWSI (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.33-0.55, P < .001), superficial SWSI (OR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.33-0.66, P < .001), and deep SWSI (OR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.25-0.63, P < .001) compared with the standard care in groin surgical wound of arterial surgery. The ciNPWT had a significantly, lower SWSI, superficial SWSI, and deep SWSI compared with the standard care in groin surgical wounds of arterial surgery. Although precautions should be taken when commerce with the consequences because some of the picked studies for this meta-analysis was with low sample sizes.

Xie R, Li B, Wen F. Effect of prophylactic negative pressure treatment for post-surgery groin wounds management in vascular surgery: A meta-analysis. Int Wound J 2022; 20:269-277. [PMID: 35818744 PMCID: PMC9885472 DOI: 10.1111/iwj.13870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 05/29/2022] [Accepted: 06/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of prophylactic negative pressure treatment for post-surgery groin wounds management in vascular surgery. A systematic literature search up to April 2022 was performed and 1537 total number of groin vascular surgery incisions at the baseline of the studies; 729 of them were using the prophylactic negative pressure treatment, and 808 were using control. Odds ratio (OR) and mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the effect of prophylactic negative pressure treatment for post-surgery groin wounds management in vascular surgery using the dichotomous, and contentious methods with a random or fixed-effect model. The prophylactic negative pressure treatment subjects had a significantly lower surgical site wound infection (OR, 0.26; 95% CI, 0.16-0.42, P < .001) in subjects after vascular surgery compared with control. However, prophylactic negative pressure treatment did not show any significant difference in revision surgery (OR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.52-1.00, P = .05), readmission (OR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.66-1.32, P = .69), mortality in hospital (OR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.29-1.01, P = .05), and length of hospital stay (MD, -0.24; 95% CI, -0.91-0.44, P = .49) compared with control in subjects after vascular surgery. The prophylactic negative pressure treatment subjects had a significantly lower surgical site wound infection and no significant difference in revision surgery, readmission, mortality in hospital, and length of hospital stay compared with control in subjects after vascular surgery. The analysis of outcomes should be with caution because of the low sample size of 2 out of 10 studies in the meta-analysis and a low number of studies in certain comparisons.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Groin incision surgical site infections (SSIs) following arterial surgery are common and are a source of considerable morbidity. This review evaluates interventions and adjuncts delivered immediately before, during, or after skin closure, to prevent SSIs in patients undergoing arterial interventions involving a groin incision. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL databases were searched. REVIEW METHODS This review was undertaken according to established international reporting guidelines and was registered prospectively with the International prospective register of systematic reviews (CRD42020185170). The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL databases were searched using pre-defined search terms without date restriction. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies recruiting patients with non-infected groin incisions for arterial exposure were included; SSI rates and other outcomes were captured. Interventions reported in two or more studies were subjected to meta-analysis. RESULTS The search identified 1 532 articles. Seventeen RCTs and seven observational studies, reporting on 3 747 patients undergoing 4 130 groin incisions were included. A total of seven interventions and nine outcomes were reported upon. Prophylactic closed incision negative pressure wound therapy (ciNPWT) reduced groin SSIs compared with standard dressings (odds ratio [OR] 0.34, 95% CI 0.23 - 0.51; p < .001, GRADE strength of evidence: moderate). Local antibiotics did not reduce groin SSIs (OR 0.60 95% CI 0.30 - 1.21 p = .15, GRADE strength: low). Subcuticular sutures (vs. transdermal sutures or clips) reduced groin SSI rates (OR 0.33, 95% CI 0.17 - 0.65, p = .001, GRADE strength: low). Wound drains, platelet rich plasma, fibrin glue, and silver alginate dressings did not show any significant effect on SSI rates. CONCLUSION There is evidence that ciNPWT and subcuticular sutures reduce groin SSI in patients undergoing arterial vascular interventions involving a groin incision. Local antibiotics did not reduce groin wound SSI, although the strength of this evidence is lower. No other interventions demonstrated a significant effect.

Abstract
Surgical site infection (SSIs) in lower extremity vascular procedures is a major contributor to patient morbidity and mortality. Despite previous advancements in preoperative and postoperative care, the surgical infection rate in vascular surgery remains high, particularly when groin incisions are involved. However, successfully targeting modifiable risk factors reduces the surgical site infection incidence in vascular surgery patients. We conducted an extensive literature review to evaluate the efficacy of various preventive strategies for groin surgical site infections. We discuss the role of preoperative showers, preoperative and postoperative antibiotics, collagen gentamicin implants, iodine impregnated drapes, types of skin incisions, negative pressure wound therapy, and prophylactic muscle flap transposition in preventing surgical site infection in the groin after vascular surgical procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Surgical site infection after groin incision is a common complication and a financial burden to patients and healthcare systems. Closed incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT) has been associated with decreased surgical site infection rates in published literature. This meta-analysis examines the effect of ciNPT (PREVENA™ Incision Management System; KCI, San Antonio, TX) versus traditional postsurgical dressing use in reducing surgical site infection rates over closed groin incisions following vascular surgery. METHODS A systematic literature search using PubMed, OVID, EMBASE, and QUOSA was performed on 3 January 2019, by two independent researchers and focused on publications between 1 January 2005 and 31 December 2018. The review conformed to the statement and reporting check list of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses. Inclusion criteria included abstract or manuscript written in English, published studies, conference abstracts, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), ciNPT usage over closed groin incisions in vascular surgery, comparison of ciNPT use and traditional dressings, study endpoint/outcome of surgical site infection, and study population of >10. Characteristics of study participants, surgical procedure, type of dressing used, duration of treatment, incidence of surgical site infection, and length of follow-up were extracted. Weighted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated to pool study and control groups in each publication for analysis. Treatment effects were combined using Mantel-Haenszel risk ratios, and the Chi-Square test was used to assess heterogeneity. Overall, high-risk patients, normal-risk patients, and Szilagyi I, II, III outcomes were assessed between ciNPT and control groups. The Cochrane Collaboration tool was utilized to assess the risk of bias for all studies included in the analysis. RESULTS A total of 615 articles were identified from the literature search. After removal of excluded studies and duplicates, six RCT studies were available for analysis. In these studies, a total of 362 patients received ciNPT, and 371 patients received traditional dressings (control). Surgical site infection events occurred in 41 ciNPT patients and 107 control patients. The heterogeneity test was nonsignificant (p > 0.05). The overall RCT meta-analysis showed a highly significant effect in favor of ciNPT (OR = 3.06, 95% CI [2.05, 4.58], p < 0.05). High-risk, normal-risk, Szilagyi I, and Szilagyi II meta-analyses were also statistically significant in favor of ciNPT use (p < 0.05). The varying RCT inclusion/exclusion criteria, such as differences in procedure types, and patient populations form the major limitations of this study. CONCLUSIONS A statistically significant reduction in the incidence of surgical site infection was seen following ciNPT usage in patients undergoing vascular surgery with groin incisions.

Abstract
Groin wound infections in patients undergoing vascular procedures often cause a lengthy process of wound healing. Several clinical studies and case reports show a reduction of surgical site infections (SSIs) in various wound types after using closed incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT). The aim of this prospective, randomised, single-institution study was to investigate the effectiveness of ciNPT (PREVENA™ Therapy) compared to conventional therapy on groin incisions after vascular surgery. From 1 February to 30 October 2015, 100 patients with 129 groin incisions were analysed. Patients were randomised and treated with either ciNPT (n = 58 groins) or the control dressing (n = 71 groins). ciNPT was applied intraoperatively and removed on days 5-7 postoperatively. The control group received a conventional adhesive plaster. Wound evaluation based on the Szilagyi classification took place postoperatively on days 5-7 and 30. Compared to the control group, the ciNPT group showed a significant reduction in wound complications (P < 0·0005) after both wound evaluation periods and in revision surgeries (P = 0·022) until 30 days postoperatively. Subgroup analysis revealed that ciNPT had a significant effect on almost all examined risk factors for wound healing. ciNPT significantly reduced the incidence of incision complications and revision procedures after vascular surgery.
