Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Based on the findings of the present study it may be concluded that, using polyglactin suture material to fix mesh is a safe, simple as well as an effective alternative to the conventional usage of polypropylene sutures for fixing the mesh in Lichtenstein hernia repair. The post- operative pain on day 1 and day 3 is similar with both vicryl and prolene sutures but on the day 7 and after 3 months it is significantly less.Timepoint: Post operative day 1, 3, 7 and 3 months | — |

|---|---|
| Hence our study helps use to understand the benefits of using polyglactin sutures & also enables us to recommend its application to fix the mesh in Lichtenstien’s hernioplasty. So, routine usage of polyglactin (vicryl) sutures for mesh fixation in a Lichtenstien’s hernioplasty is safe & simple & thus a reasonable option. Timepoint: Post operative day 1,3,7 & 3 months | — |
