Awareness on the management strategy of stitch abscess among dental students

Stitch abscesses are abscesses that develop following surgical procedures as a result of suture infections. Because of nonabsorbable sutures, the material reacts with connective tissue, generating adhesions around the stitch. The use of this type of material increases the risk of infection. The aim...

description Stitch abscesses are abscesses that develop following surgical procedures as a result of suture infections. Because of nonabsorbable sutures, the material reacts with connective tissue, generating adhesions around the stitch. The use of this type of material increases the risk of infection. The aim of this study was to establish awareness on the management strategy of suture stitch abscess among dental students. An online survey consisting of ten questions about suture stitch abscess along with sociodemographic factors was circulated among equal numbers of 2(nd) years, 3(rd) years, final years, and compulsory rotatory residential internship (CRRI). The data obtained from the questionnaire were transferred to Microsoft Excel and imported to SPSS software for statistical analysis. Interns are more aware about the complications and management strategy of suture stitch abscesses compared to others. Awareness on the management strategy of suture stitch abscess is important, and it helps to reduce the side effects to improve the outcomes. Educating the risk factors, signs and symptoms, and management strategy is the best way to help raise awareness.
