Last updated 2024-09-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

When using the rolled ring of a sterile glove as a loop drain in incision and loop drainage, is it superior to incision and drainage for treatment of a cutaneous abscess in 18 to 65 year-old patients presenting to the Emergency Department, Family Health Clinic, Family Medicine Residency Clinic, or Internal Medicine Clinic?

Hypothesis: When treating a cutaneous abscess, incision and loop drainage utilizing the rolled ring of a sterile glove as a loop drain is superior to the standard (incision and drainage) yielding a treatment failure rate of 1% at seven to ten days.
