To determine whether circular plastic wound edge protectors (CWEPs) significantly reduce the rate of surgical site infections (SSIs) in comparison to standard surgical towels in patients undergoing laparotomy.SSIs cause substantial morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, and costs and remain one of the most frequent surgical complications.
