Identify the risk factors for complications as well as study the evolution of wounds sutured in the emergency room towards complications such as superinfections, necrosis, disunity of the stitches linked to inadequate initial care.
All traumatic injuries should be considered contaminated upon presentation to the emergency room. This is why the main objective of this study was to describe the attitude of patients towards their wounds, to identify the risk factors for complications as well as to study the evolution of sutured wounds in the emergency room towards complications such as superinfections, necrosis, disunity of stitches linked to inadequate initial treatment.
This is a prospective, observational, monocentric study carried out in the emergency services of the Fattouma Bourguiba hospital in Monastir.
