Use of Silk Fibroin Dressings in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty
Sponsor: The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston
Summary
The purpose of this study is to document the incidence of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to silk fibroin and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate mesh dressings, to document the incidence of acute wound dehiscence requiring reoperation after application of silk fibroin and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate mesh dressings, to identify differences in clinic utilization for complications related to silk fibroin and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate mesh dressings and to collect patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) related to patient comfort and satisfaction for silk fibroin and 2-octyl cyanoacrylate mesh dressings after total hip arthroplasty.
Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate Wound Complications After Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty Using Silk Fibroin Versus 2-octyl Cyanoacrylate Mesh

Conditions
Interventions
Dermabond PRINEO
Participants will have the Dermabond PRINEO wound dressing applied after surgery and will undergo standard postoperative examination that will evaluate and remove the dressing, as well as examine and document a physical examination of the surgical wound. Photos of the surgical wound will be uploaded to the patient's electronic medical record during dressing removal.
Silk fibroin
Participants will have the Silk fibroin wound dressing applied after surgery and will undergo standard postoperative examination that will evaluate and remove the dressing, as well as examine and document a physical examination of the surgical wound. Photos of the surgical wound will be uploaded to the patient's electronic medical record during dressing removal.
