Objectives . Groin wounds following vascular surgery are highly susceptible to healing disturbances, with reported site infections reaching 30%. Negative pressure incision management systems (NPIMS) believed positively influence the prevention of surgical wound-healing disturbances (WHD) and (SSI). NPIMS placed directly after closure wound is thought result in fewer infections; we analysed its effect on postoperative patients via groin. Methods From May 2012 March 2013 included 90 patients;...
