91: Predicting postoperative day 1 hematocrit levels after hysterectomy: Evaluating the Swenson model

Abstract

While various surgical specialties are increasingly adopting the use of negative pressure wound therapy in an effort to decrease surgical site infections and wound complications, the field of benign gynecology is conspicuously lacking in high-quality evidence to support or refute the use of NPWT in this specific patient population. This systematic review demonstrated a lack of research conducted to date on NPWT in the field of benign gynecology, indicating a need for high-quality research before further use of this technology in gynecologic patients.
