Phase III, Prospective, Multinational, Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled, Two-arm, Double Blind Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of D-PLEX Administered Concomitantly with the Standard of Care (SoC), Compared to a SoC Treated Control Arm, in Prevention of Post Abdominal Surgery Incisional Infection.
Postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) is associated with unnecessary use of heath care resources including prolonged hospitalization and increased hospital readmission. Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis is one of the most important strategies for prevention of SSI. If there is a beta-lactam allergy, second tier antibiotics (vancomycin and clindamycin) are recommended alternatives to first- and second-generation cephalosporins because of fears of possible allergy. This prospective, randomized, and single-blinded clinical trial is designed to examine causality between second tier antibiotics use and surgical site infections in the subjects with a documented unverified penicillin allergy. Unverified beta-lactam allergy could be associated with antimicrobial treatment failure with second tires antibiotics during postoperative period.
This study is to analyse risk factors for wound complications or surgical site infections and to analyse whether risk factors for wound complications or surgical site infections are also factors for other complications. Based on the data from this study it will be investigated whether a risk score can be build up to predict individual risk for a complication after surgery.
The overall objective of this study is to identify the best strategy to eliminate unnecessary antibiotic use after surgery in pediatric surgical procedures considered low-risk for an SSI. Based on literature and our preliminary data suggesting surgeons will not fully accept standardized order sets based on current guidelines, the investigators hypothesize that order set modification combined with ASP facilitation will outperform standard order set modification alone in de-implementing unnecessary postoperative antibiotic use.
Laparoscopic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis seems to be associated with several short-term benefits. It could reduce the postoperative infection rate and shorten the hospital stay. This study aimed to evaluate the postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) rate after laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis, compared to extracorporeal anastomoses.
The primary aim of the study is to compare two methods for a relationship with total knee infection: regular changing of dressings and not changing dressings.
TITLE: Effect of prophylactic prosthesis placement with versus without omega-3 at the umbilical trocar level on surgical site infection and herniation after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with risk factors. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether the placement of a synthetic prosthesis with omega-3 in its composition at the level of the umbilical trocar after laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus the placement of a synthetic umbilical prosthesis without omega-3 in its composition decreases the rate of surgical site infection (SSI) and trocar site hernia (TSH) in patients with risk factors for infection and herniation.
Infection after spinal surgery is one of the serious complications. Spinal surgery infection can cause high morbidity, mortality, and costs. In spite of different prophylactic methods, up to 15% of infection appears after spinal surgery. Vancomycin powder, which is one of the most applied methods, seems to be effective and inexpensive. However, vancomycin administration may be inconvenient in elderly participants with high comorbidity and especially kidney problems. The investigators aimed to reduce the rate of infection in the post-op 90-day period by adding per-op Teicoplanin powder onto the implant in participants scheduled for lumbar posterior instrumentation.
TITLE: Application of hyperoxygenated fatty acids (PrevOmega) in a surgical wound of the umbilical trocar after laparoscopic cholecystectomy with placement of prostheses in patients with risk factors. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of topical application of hyperoxygenated fatty acids (AGHO), PrevOmega, at the umbilical trocar level after laparoscopic cholecystectomy with prosthesis placement, regarding its non-application, on the infection rate. of the surgical site (ISQ) and eventration of the trocar orifice (EOT), in patients with risk factors for ISQ AND EOT. METHODS: A prospective, double-blind, randomized study was performed in patients operated on for scheduled cholelithiasis, who also had any of the following risk factors that increase the appearance of SSI or OOT: BMI> 30kg / m2, Diabetes Mellitus, age> 65 years and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Group A was administered physiological saline (SSF) at the umbilical trocar level at the end of the intervention versus the administration of PrevOmega to group B. The study was carried out between January 2018 and January 2020 and is registered in the European Database of Clinical Trials with the EudraCT Code: 2018-002260-67.
