Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Changing the surgical team and instruments   After the primary task is done each patient will be assigned one of the two groups through use of set of sealed envelope method of generated random numbers.In the baseline group closure of abdominal wall and skin will be performed by main surgical team, the same team that performed the whole surgery.In the intervention group closure will be performed by second surgical team with new sterile instrument.Timing of intervention will be during intraoperative wound closure only. 
Comparator Agent  Surgical site infection  The baseline group will be the same team but will use new sterile gloves during sheath closure.

Brief Summary  

Surgical site infections (SSI) are the most common and financially burdensome infections acquired within hospital environments. Mortality within the 30-days of surgery ranks as the third most substantial contributor to global mortality.

The purpose of this study is to see whether the rate of surgical site infection can be reduced by changing the surgical team and instruments during closure of wound.
