      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Prevention, Randomization description: We will use the quadruple block randomization method. For this purpose, we prepare four sheets of paper. On two sheets we write the letter S meaning "semi-plastic" and on the other two sheets we write the letter C meaning "subcuticular". The sheets are mixed together and with the reference of each eligible patient, one of the sheets will be drawn randomly and based on this drawn sheet, whether it is S or C, they will be assigned to one of the two intervention groups. After all four sheets are randomly drawn, the above procedure will be continued for the next four patients until the desired sample size (80 patients) is reached, Blinding description: In this study, the participants and patients are aware of the general process of the research, but they are unaware of the division into intervention groups in randomization. Also, the person responsible for data collection and the person responsible for data analysis are also unaware.</study_design>

      <hc_freetext>Appendicitis.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: The first intervention group: closing the wound with a semi-plastic suture. The method of conducting the study will be that after randomization, the patients, if placed in this group, will undergo surgery by a surgeon and scrub with a similar method. After appendectomy and after ensuring hemostasis, the layers of peritoneum, muscles and fascia will be sewn separately and then according to the placement of patients in this intervention group, they will be sutured in the relevant skin area, which will be sutured using Nylon thread (Kat, No. 3-0, Supa Co., Iran) will be used by the surgeon in a semi-plastic way. Intervention 2: The second intervention group: closing the wound with subcuticular suture. The method of conducting the study will be that after randomization, if the patients are placed in this group, they will undergo surgery by a surgeon and scrub with a similar method. After appendectomy and after ensuring hemostasis, the layers of the peritoneum, muscles and fascia will be sewn separately, and then according to the placement of the patients in this intervention group, they will be sutured in the relevant skin area, which will be sutured using nylon thread. (Cut, No. 3-0, Supa Company, Iran) will be performed subcuticular by the surgeon.</i_freetext>
