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.

Keywords: arterial surgery; closed incision negative pressure wound therapy; groin; surgical site wound infection.
