Wound infections remain a major source of postoperative morbidity, accounting for about a quarter of the total number of nosocomial infections. Today, many of these infections are first recognized in the outpatient clinic or in the patient's home due to the large number of operations done in the outpatient setting.

Surgical management of a wound whether elective or post-traumatic requires strict adherence to certain basic precepts if a successful outcome is to be expected: 1. The patient must be stabilized. 2. Blood supply to the tissues must be adequate in order for the wound to heal. 3. All necrotic tissue must be debrided as it provides an excellent medium for

Abstract 104 OPERATIONS in North and Central America were carried out with the operation wound isolated in an inflated, free-form plastic bag. The purpose was to achieve, not absolute asepsis, but a safe surgical field in an otherwise highly contaminated environment. The operating-rooms varied from highly contaminated to clean.

People are the major source of bacterial contamination in the hospital environment, and to control environmental bacteria, the shedding potential of people must be controlled. In a conventional operating room, the more complete the surgical attire worn by everyone in the room, the better the control; i.e., body exhaust equipment for the ...

SURGICAL ALTERNATIVES FOR WOUNDS
Nursing Clinics of North America, 1999Surgical alternatives in wound care are a primary consideration for the treatment of nonhealing and traumatic wounds. Using the Reconstructive Ladder as an outline, this article provides an overview of preoperative wound care and the indications for surgical options in wound care. An overview of nursing care is highlighted as each option is reviewed to

It is clear that the alterations in wound healing caused by irradiation and chemotherapy are due to reduced rates of collagen production, probably from adverse effects of irradiation and chemotherapy on fibroblasts. The effect is to slow the process of wound healing so much that there is significantly more time for a complication to occur.

Abdominal incisions typically are covered with conventional gauze or not dressed at all, since it is commonly believed that dressings do not influence the healing process. Also, patient personal hygiene is not facilitated when gauze type dressings are used, and frequent changes are time consuming and sometimes painful. Following creation of an adjacent
