| Core Tip |
Balhara et al pioneer randomized, low-cost dynamic fascial traction via serial Bogota bag tightening, accelerating skin-to-skin closure (9.94 days vs 13 days) and hospital stays in septic open abdomen, bedside feasible, universally accessible, and ideal for low- and middle-income countries overburdened by sepsis, bridging the gap until advanced therapies proliferate. |
