Table A2.
Intestinal Wall Integrity Score.
| Layer | Points | Finding |
|---|---|---|
| Mucosa | 1/4 | Completely re-epithelized |
| 0/4 | Incompletely re-epithelized | |
| Submucosa | 1/4 | Completely healed |
| 0/4 | Purulent infiltration, necrosis | |
| Muscularis * | 3/12 | No distance (≤0.09 mm) |
| 2/12 | Distance 0.1 to 1.99 mm | |
| 1/12 | Distance 2 to 3.99 mm | |
| 0/12 | Distance over 4 mm | |
| Serosa | 3/12 | No purulent infiltration and necrosis |
| 2/12 | Purulent infiltration and/or necrosis from the muscular layer to area of nanomaterial ** | |
| 1/12 | Purulent infiltration and/or necrosis from the area of nanomaterial to the peritoneum *** | |
| 0/12 | Purulent infiltration and/or necrosis passes to the peritoneum |
* Distance between the two anastomosed muscle layers. ** 2/12 points for purulent infiltration and/or necrosis from muscular layer to half thickness of the serosa in the Control group. *** 1/12 points for purulent infiltration and/or necrosis from half thickness of the serosa to the peritoneum in the Control group.
