Brief Summary:
This study aims to determine whether cyanoacrylate glue is a non-inferior alternative to continuous suturing for wound closure following adult circumcision. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate and compare operative time, pain, cosmesis, complications and patient satisfaction associated with the use of cyanoacrylate glue versus standard suturing for wound closure. To the best of our knowledge, this will be one of the first studies to investigate the use of cyanoacrylate glue for wound closure following adult circumcision. The findings from this study could provide valuable insights into the potential benefits of using cyanoacrylate glue as a non-inferior alternative to continuous suturing for wound closure. Additionally, this study may also inform clinical practice guidelines on the most effective techniques for wound closure following adult circumcision.
Detailed Description:
This non-blinded, randomized controlled pilot study is to be conducted at the Men's Health Clinic in Winnipeg, Manitoba. All eligible patients undergoing circumcision will be invited to participate in the study. They will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio using a computer-generated random list. Patients will be randomized to 2-Octyl cyanoacrylate (2-OCA) with four interrupted sutures vs. standard suturing alone. In the post-operative recovery area, patients will be asked to complete a VAS questionnaire. Patients will then be brought in for their routine visit 6 weeks post-op. During the visit, closure of the wound as well as any potential complications will be assessed by a research team member. At that time, a questionnaire will be administered to study participants to assess variables such as post-procedure pain as well as their satisfaction with the recovery process and cosmesis post-circumcision. Cosmesis and complications will also be assessed 12 weeks post-op.
