ABSTRACT

Antibiotic prophylaxis is a recognized concept in surgery. We studied the need for prophylaxis in clean and clean contaminated surgery in the setting of third world tertiary care center. A randomized single blind study was conducted with three arms. 278 patients of ASA and 2 were included in this study. They were randomized to prophylaxis with Cefuroxime, triple regime and placebo. The placebo wing was terminated prematurely due to unacceptable infection rate and Cefuroxime was found to be equal or better than triple regime in our study

ABSTRACT

Las infecciones relacionadas con la cirugía son una causa importante de morbimortalidad. Su incidencia varía de acuerdo al tipo de cirugía, al tipo de hospital considerado, etc. Producen un impacto muy importante en la salud pública, con gran costo económico, físico y psicológico para el paciente. En estudios clínicos controlados se pudo establecer el beneficio de la administración de antibióticos en forma profiláctica en las intervenciones quirúrgicas, lo que ha disminuido la incidencia de infecciones posquirúrgicas. En esta publicación tratamos de establecer pautas racionales para el uso de la profilaxis con antibióticos en cirugía
