Surgical site infection in vascular surgery is a relatively common event with reported incidence as high as 43%. When considering the groin alone, the incidence is around 20% (30% when considering any wound complication). This complication may sometimes lead to heavier complication (leg amputation, longer hospital stay, high costs...) and affects the early postoperative quality of life of the patients.
270 studies on the registry are indexed under Wound Infection; 33 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 160 is above the median of 141 across 228 interventional studies indexed under Wound Infection.

Exclusion Criteria:
Device: Standard cutiplast®
Device: PICO®
Our standard dressing consists in a usual ready-to-use Smith and Nephew Cutiplast®. This dressing is open 48 hours after the operation (CDC recommendation) for the first time and then changed every day after wound disinfection.
PICO® is a negative pressure wound therapy consisting in a 4 layers ready-to-use dressing connected to a small console, responsible for the aspiration. The system is canister free. The fluid drained from the wound is lost by evaporation for 80% of it and only 20% remains in the dressing. This permits to the dressing to be kept in place for maximum 7 days. The wound is not checked during the hospital stay, allowing the patient to leave the hospital earlier after the operation.

Start is estimated for Mar 2018; primary completion for Nov 2019, 20 months later.
Of 59 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Wound Infection, half reached primary completion within 19 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 53. This study's planned 20 months is close to that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 64 studies reached it within 19 months; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 53.
