ObjectiveTo evaluate existing predictive models for surgical site infection (SSI) following colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery, aiming to provide a scientific basis for refining risk prediction models and developing clinically practical and widely applicable screening tools. MethodA comprehensive review of existing literature on predictive models for SSI following CRC surgery, both domestically and internationally, were conducted. ResultsThe determination of SSI following CRC surgery primarily relied on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention standard of USA, which presented issues of consistency and accuracy. Various predictive models had been developed, including traditional statistical models and machine learning models, with 0.991 of an area under the operating characteristic curve of predictive model. However, most studies were based on retrospective and single-center data, which limited their applicability and accuracy. ConclusionsAlthough existing models provide strong support for predicting SSI following CRC surgery, there is a need for multi-center, prospective studies to enhance the generalizability and accuracy of these models. Additionally, future research should focus on improving model interpretability to better apply them in clinical practice, providing personalized risk assessments and intervention strategies for patients.

Objective To probe the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens causing surgical site infection in patients after gynecologic operation, and provide reference for prevention and treatment. Methods Seventy patients with incision infection after gynecologic operation in West China Second University Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2010 to May 2015 were selected. Species of the pathogens from the submitted specimens and the results of the drug susceptibility testing were analyzed. Results Seventy-two strains of pathogens were isolated, including 36 strains (50.0%) of Gram-negative (G–) bacteria and 36 strains (50.0%) of Gram-positive (G+) bacteria. The main G– bacteria were Escherichia coli (36.1%) and Enterobacter cloacae (5.6%); the main G+ bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (18.1%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (12.5%), and Enterococcus faecalis (8.3%). Escherichia coli showed low sensitivities to ampicillin, ceftriaxone, and gentamicin, with resistance rates of 76.9%, 61.5%, and 61.5%, respectively. Staphylococcus aureus showed low sensitivities to penicillin G, clindamycin, and erythromycin, with resistance rates of 92.3%, 69.2%, and 61.5%, respectively. Staphylococcus epidermidis showed low sensitivities to erythromycin, penicillin G, and ciprofloxacin, with resistance rates of 88.9%, 77.8%, and 77.8%, respectively. No carbapenem-resistant G– bacteria or vancomycin-resistant G+ bacteria were detected. Conclusion Postoperative surgical site infection is the most common nosocomial infection. The main bacteria related to postoperative incision infection in the gynecology department of the hospital are Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Enterococcus faecalis, which become resistant to common antibiotics currently. Therefore more attention should be paid to bacterial isolation and drug susceptibility test results for rational use of antimicrobial drugs and effectiveness of the treatment to nosocomial infection.
Objective To explore the application methods and values of using health failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) to prevent surgical site infection (SSI) in patients undergoing bone fracture and craniotomy surgery with class Ⅰ incision. Methods Patients undergoing bone fracture and craniotomy surgery with class Ⅰ incision at the Chengdu Pidu District People’s Hospital between January 2020 to December 2021 were selected. Based on whether receiving HFMEA-based risk management or not, the patients were divided into conventional group and intervention group. The compliance rates with infection control measures, changes in risk priority numbers (RPN) at various stages (1 month and 10 months after intervention) of HFMEA implementation, and the incidence of SSI between the conventional group and the intervention group were compared. Results A total of 884 surgeries were included. Among them, there were 399 cases in the conventional group and 485 cases in the intervention group; 16 cases SSI occurred. A total of 7 SSI prevention and control measures had been formulated. Except for proper surgical attire (P＞0.05), there were statistically significant differences in the compliance rate of the other prevention and control measures between the two groups of patients (P＜0.05). In the intervention group, the RPN values of pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative risk factors at the 10th month after intervention were all lower than those at the 1st month after intervention (P<0.05). Except for the incidence of SSI during craniotomy surgery (6.1% vs. 1.8%, P=0.375), there were statistically significant differences in the total SSI incidence (3.3% vs. 0.6%) and bone fracture surgery SSI incidence (2.7% vs. 0.5%) between the conventional group and the intervention group (P>0.05). Conclusion Applying HFMEA-based risk management techniques to prospectively identify, assess, analyze, manage and track the risk of SSI in bone fracture and craniotomy surgery with class Ⅰ incision can effectively enhance the adherence of preventive measures and reduce the incidence rate of SSI.
ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of comprehensive interventions on the prevention of the incidence of surgical site infection (SSI) after hip or knee arthroplasty.MethodsPatients who underwent total hip and knee arthroplasty for the first time in orthopedics department of Chengdu Fifth People’s Hospital from January 2016 to March 2018 were selected. The patients were observed after surgery for 1 year, and divided into the control group and the treatment group according to the odd or even hospitalization number. Basic precautions were taken in the control group, while further comprehensive preventive measures (preoperative chlorhexidine bath, intraoperative body temperature maintenance, using antibacterial film over surgery area without shearing, health and education after discharge from hospital) were taken in the treatment group. The incidence of SSI of the two groups was compared to evaluate the effects of comprehensive interventions.ResultsA total of 341 patients were included, including 174 in the control group and 167 in the treatment group. No one failed to be followed up. Among the 341 patients undergoing surgery, 13 had SSI, including 11 (6.3%) in the control group and 2 (1.2%) in the treatment group. The incidence of SSI in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group (χ2=6.102, P=0.014). Single factor analysis showed that sex (χ2=10.933, P=0.001), preoperative chlorhexidine sponge bath (χ2=8.837, P=0.003), intraoperative thermal insulation (χ2=13.917, P<0.001), health education (χ2=12.671, P<0.001), skin preparation methods (χ2=6.102, P=0.014), perioperative blood glucose control (χ2=17.512, P=0.003), and surgical type (χ2=8.360,factor P=0.004) were the effect factors of occurrence of SSI. Logistic regression analysis showed that surgical type [odds ratio (OR)=0.129, 95% confidence interval (CI)(0.026, 0.640), P=0.012] and strict blood glucose control [OR=9.868, 95%CI (2.158, 45.131), P=0.003] were the independent factors affecting the occurrence of SSI.ConclusionsComprehensive intervention measures can effectively reduce the occurrence of SSI after hip and knee arthroplasty. It is not confirmed that preoperative chlorhexidine bath can reduce the occurrence of SSI. But choosing selective operation and controlling the perioperative blood glucose below 200 mg/dL can reduce the risk of SSI.
ObjectiveTo study the effects of PDCA cycle in the control of surgical site infection (SSI). MethodsA total of 1 761 surgeries between January 2012 and December 2013 were chosen to be monitored. PDCA cycle was used as a tool of total quality management evaluation to enhance the control of SSI. ResultsAfter 2 to 4 cycles of PDCA, the preventive medication rate of ClassⅠ operation incision was decreased significantly (χ2=309.513，P<0.001) and the postoperative incision infection rate did not change significantly (χ2=1.474，P=0.669). ConclusionUsing PDCA cycle can increase SSI management level and quality significantly and total quality management can be operated effectively.
Objective To study the influence factors of surgical site infection (SSI) after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery. Methods Fifty patients suffered from SSI after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery who treated in Feng,nan District Hospital of Tangshan City from April 2010 and April 2015 were retrospectively collected as observation group, and 102 patients who didn’t suffered from SSI after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery at the same time period were retrospectively collected as control group. Then logistic regression was performed to explore the influence factors of SSI. Results Results of univariate analysis showed that, the ratios of patients older than 60 years, combined with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, had abdominal surgery history, had smoking history, suffered from the increased level of preoperative blood glucose , suffered from preoperative infection, operative time was longer than 180 minutes, American Societyof Anesthesiologists (ASA) score were 3-5, indwelled drainage tube, without dressing changes within 48 hours after surgery, and new injury severity score (NISS) were 2-3 were higher in observation group (P＜0.05). Results of logistic regression analysis showed that, patients had history of abdominal surgery (OR=1.92), without dressing changes within 48 hours after surgery (OR=2.07), and NISS were 2-3 (OR=2.27) had higher incidence of SSI (P＜0.05). Conclusion We should pay more attention on the patient with abdominal surgery history and with NISS of 2-3, and give dressing changes within 48 hours after surgery, to reduce the incidence of SSI.
ObjectiveTo analyze the relevant factors for surgical site infection. MethodsA total of 677 cases of surgery in one hospital from July 1 to December 31 in 2012 were surveyed (not including implant and cardiac intervention surgeries), which were divided into different groups according to the preoperative incision contamination level, and the postoperative healing of incisions were observed closely. After the patients were discharged, we investigated the situation of incisions by phone or periodic review, and forms were filled in on schedule. ResultsBy follow-up evaluation of the 677 cases, the incisions in 12 cases were infected and the infection rate was 1.77%. Polluted and infected (14.28%, 30.76%) incisions caused more infection than the clean and clean-polluted incisions (0.00%, 0.59%). The patients who stayed in hospital for 4 or more than 4 days before surgeries (infection rate was 4.55%) took more risk of infection than the patients whose preoperative time in hospital were 2-3 days (infection rate was 0.60%) and 1 or shorter than 1 day (0.68%). Perioperative use of antibiotics for longer than 72 hours will increase the risk of incision infection than those within 48 hours (7.69%, 0.00%; P=0.002). ConclusionSurgical site infection is related to the incision type. Shortening the preoperative in-hospital time will reduce the risk of infection. Long time use of antibiotics in perioperative period cannot prevent the postoperative infection effectively, but may increase the risk of infection.
ObjectiveTo analyze the current situation of antimicrobial agents using in day surgery patients to guide the rational use of antimicrobial agents in day surgery.MethodsThe day surgery performed in Day Surgery Center of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from June 2016 to September 2017 was selected. We retrospectively collected and analyzed patients’ hospitalization data and return visit data, statistically analyzed their use of antimicrobial agents, explored whether there was an unreasonable phenomenon in the use of antimicrobial agents, and analyzed the reasons.ResultsThere were 4 054 surgeries included in this study, and 1 293 patients using antimicrobial agents, the use rate of antimicrobial agents in day surgery patients reached 31.89%. Aseptic, clean-contaminated, contaminated and dirty surgery accounted for 12.22%, 65.20%, 7.27%, and 15.31% separately. Whether the application of antimicrobial agents in aseptic surgery patients had no effect on the outcome of the incision (P=0.073). The most common type of antimicrobial agents used by patients are cephalosporins (57.50%), mainly used as single drugs (97.91%) and mostly oral used in patients’ home. Most of the sources of antimicrobial agents were purchased by patients after they were discharged from the hospital (65.43%). The antimicrobial agents more used by Stemmatological Department (23.98%), Ear/Nose/Throat Department (22.58%) and Obstetrics and Gynecology Department (22.51%). The average used time of antimicrobial agents was (5.37±1.86) days, and 7.42% of patients still had surgical site infections after the use of prophylactic antimicrobial agents, most of them from General Surgery Department.ConclusionsThe unreasonable phenomena in the use of antimicrobial agents in patients with day surgery include: a high proportion of preventive medications for clean-contamination surgery, a high level of initial medication, and most patients take oral medications at home and lack of guidance, and long medication time. There is an urgent need for scientific guidance on the use of antimicrobial agents for patients undergoing day surgery.
