Surgical site infections (SSIs) are among the most common and most costly health care-associated infections, leading to adverse patient outcomes and death. Wound contamination occurs with each incision, but proven strategies exist to decrease the risk of SSI. In particular, improved adherence to evidence-based preventive measures related to appropriate

Acta Clinica Belgica, 1998
The New CDC-definitions for surveillance of surgical site infections (1992) take into account 3 classes of surgical site infections (SSI): superficial and deep incisional SSI, and organ/space SSI. The most important host-related risk factors for development of SSI are advanced age, morbid obesity, disease severity, an ASA score > 2, prolonged ...

Dexamethasone and Surgical-Site Infection
New England Journal of Medicine, 2021The glucocorticoid dexamethasone prevents nausea and vomiting after surgery, but there is concern that it may increase the risk of surgical-site infection.In this pragmatic, international, noninferiority trial, we randomly assigned 8880 adult patients who were undergoing nonurgent, noncardiac surgery of at least 2 hours' duration, with a skin incision ...

Surgical site infection surveillance
Journal of Hospital Infection, 2000Surgical site infection (SSI) is the third most commonly reported nosocomial infection and accounts for 14-16% of all nosocomial infections among hospital inpatients. A successful SSI surveillance programme includes standardized definitions of infection, effective surveillance methods and stratification of the SSI rates according to risk factors ...

Prevention of surgical site infections
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2006In the current era of pay-for-performance standards, the incidence of surgical site infections is increasingly becoming an institutional marker of quality assurance. Surgical site infections lead to increased morbidity and mortality in the surgical population and contribute to an already rising healthcare cost.

Surgical site infections and their prevention
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2012Recent studies have assessed interventions and bundles of interventions to prevent surgical site infections (SSIs). We reviewed numerous studies to identify those with the strongest evidence supporting interventions for preventing SSIs.Bundles that included more than one intervention to decrease the risk of Staphylococcus aureus wound contamination ...

Surgical Site Infection Prevention
JAMA, 2023ImportanceApproximately 0.5% to 3% of patients undergoing surgery will experience infection at or adjacent to the surgical incision site. Compared with patients undergoing surgery who do not have a surgical site infection, those with a surgical site infection are hospitalized approximately 7 to 11 days longer.ObservationsMost surgical site infections ...

Management of Surgical Site Infections
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2020The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons has developed Appropriate Use Criteria for the Management of Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) (website: http://www.orthoguidelines.org/go/auc/default.cfm?auc_id=225018&actionxm=Terms). Evidence-based information, in conjunction with the clinical expertise of physicians, was used to develop the criteria to
