Effectiveness of Topical Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Inguinal Hernia Repair

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Aim of this study is to measure the effectiveness of topical gentamicin to prevent post-operative infection in inguinal tension-free hernia repair operation.Secondary aim is, if it is effective as a prophylactic agent, to compare it's effect with intra venous single dose cefazolin sodium prophylaxis.

Clinical Trial Description

This study is a single blind prospective randomized trial. To measure and compare the effectiveness intra-operative topical gentamicin application in tension-free inguinal hernia repair in contrast to intravenous peri-operative prophylactic cefazolin sodium and combination of gentamicin and cephazolin this study is designed.

The patients are grouped randomly in to two groups:

- Group1;intravenous cefazolin sodium

- Group2;topical gentamicin

- Group3:topical gentamicin and intravenous cefazolin sodium

As a control group we decided to use the data of control groups ( without any prophylactic agent usage ) of previous studies done in our clinic and medical data base reviews. ;
