Prevention of Infection in Closed Fractures: Cefazolin Versus Vancomycin

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence rate of infection in surgical patients with closed fractures treated prophylactically with Cefazolin versus Vancomycin in the peri-operative period.

The hypothesis of this study is that patients undergoing surgical treatment for closed fractures who are treated prophylactically with Vancomycin will have a lower incidence rate of infection than patients who are treated prophylactically with Cefazolin.
