Why SSI?
• 3.7% of patients experience serious adverse events related to medical management
• The top three causes were: – Medication-related (19%)
New York State 30,000 hospital discharges 1984
– Medication-related (19%)– Wound infections (14%) – Technical complications (13%)
• All of these events led to disability or prolonged stay; death occurred in 13.6% of these patients
• 58% of these events were preventable

Opportunity to Prevent Surgical Infections
• An estimated 40-60% of SSIs are preventable:
– Appropriate timing, selection, and duration of prophylactic antibiotics (occurs in as few as 25-50% of operations)50% of operations)
– Appropriate Hair Removal– Post-operative glucose control (major cardiac
surgery patients)*– Post- operative normothermia (colorectal
surgery patients)*
* These components of care are supported by clinical trials and experimental evidence in the specified populations; they may prove valuable for other surgical patients as well.

Use of Antibiotics
Appropriate use of prophylactic antibiotics
– Selection – Selection
– Timely administration
– Timely discontinuation of prophylaxis

Timing of Antibiotics
• Most studies indicate that optimum timing for prophylactic antibiotic is within one hour of incision time.one hour of incision time.
• Up to 2 hours if drug requires a longer infusion time

Hair Removal
• Appropriate:– No hair removal at all– Clipping – Clipping – Depilatory use
• Inappropriate: – Razors

Peri and post operative operative Normothermia
• Hypothermia reduces tissue oxygen tension by vasoconstriction.
• Hypothermia reduces leukocyte superoxide production.superoxide production.
• Hypothermia increases bleeding and transfusion requirements.
• Hypothermia increases duration of hospital stay even in uninfected patients.

Measures
• Surgical patients with appropriate hair removal • Appropriate selection of prophylactic antibiotics • Timely prophylactic antibiotic administration• Timely prophylactic antibiotic discontinuation • Timely prophylactic antibiotic discontinuation • Major cardiac surgery patients with controlled post-
operative glucose • Colorectal surgery patients with normothermia• Measuring Surgical Infection Rate
