Wound Healing Abnormalities in Major Abdominal Surgery (INWOUND)

April 21, 2017 updated by: Armin Sablotzki, MD, Klinikum St. Georg gGmbH

Incidence of Wound-healing-abnormalities in Major Abdominal Surgery - Association With Factors of Coagulation

This clinical observational study investigates the incidence of wound healing abnormalities in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Second aim of the study is, if wound healing deficits may be accompanied by abnormalities in blood coagulation parameters.
