Barbed suture has been demonstrated to be safe in primary hip and knee surgery and retrospective data suggests barbed suture represents no increased complications in the revision setting. Barbed suture may represent a faster, more effective way to perform revision arthroplasty closures. There are no Level I studies comparing traditional and barbed suture closure. The purpose of this study is to assess the surgical complexities of closures using closure time without sacrificing cosmesis or wound complications between the traditional closure and barbed closure.
