Definition of CDC
Wound infection is most commonly characterized by the classic signs of redness (rubor), pain (dolor), swelling (tumor), elevated incisional tissue temperature (calor) and systemic fever. Ultimately, the wound is filled with necrotic tissue, neutrophils, bacteria and Proteinaceous fluid that together constitute pus.

Surgical site infections: are the third most prevalent HCAI in hospital inpatients are present in 1% of hospital inpatients surveyed (2011) account for 1.4% of overall HCAI incidence in England developed in 10% of large bowel operation cases* are largely preventable
*this figure applies to procedures tracked under the national SSI surveillance programme

Important Definitions
Colonization
Bacteria present in a wound with no signs or symptoms of systemic inflammation Usually less than 105 cfu/mL
Contamination
Transient exposure of a wound to bacteria Varying concentrations of bacteria possible Time of exposure suggested to be < 6 hours SSI prophylaxis best strategy

Require patients to shower or bathe with an antiseptic agent on at least the night before the operative day. Thoroughly wash and clean at and around the incision site to remove gross contamination before performing antiseptic skin preparation.

The surgical site and surrounding areas should be clean. The skin around the surgical site should be free of soil and debris. Removal of superficial soil, debris, and transient microbes before applying antiseptic agent(s) reduces the risk of wound contamination by decreasing the organic debris on the skin.

Superficial incisional infection: this is defined as a surgical site infection that occurs within 30 days of surgery and involves only the skin or subcutaneous tissue of the incision, and meets at least one of the following criteria
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 25
Supporting Evidence
Criterion 3: At least two of the following symptoms and signs: - pain or tenderness - localised swelling - redness - heat and a. the superficial incision is deliberately opened by a surgeon to manage the infection, unless the incision is culture-negative
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 28
Symptoms include:
Redness and pain
around the area where you had surgery Drainage of cloudy fluid from your surgical wound Fever
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 29
Further Classification
Etiology
a) Primary The wound is the primary site of infection
b)Secondary
Infection arises following a complication that is not directly related to wound
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 30
Contd;
Time
a Early Infection presents within 30 days of procedure b Intermediate Occurs between one and three months c) Late Presents more than three months after surgery
Dr.T.V.Rao MD
32
Contd; Severity
a Minor Wound infection is described as minor when there is discharge without cellulitis or deep tissue destruction b major When there is pus discharge with tissue breakdown , Partial or total dehiscence of the deep fascial layers of wound or if systemic illness is present.

Preoperative factors influences Preoperative antiseptic showering Preoperative hair removal Patient skin preparation in the operating room Preoperative hand/forearm antisepsis
Antimicrobial prophylaxis
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 35
antiseptic showering
Decreases skin microbial colony counts No evidence of benefit to reduce SSI rates
Preoperative
hair removal
Shaving: @ immediately before the operation: SSI rates 3.1% @ shaving within 24 hours preoperatively: 7.1% @ having performed >24 hours: SSI rate > 20%. Depilatories: @ lower SSI risk than shaving or clipping @ hypersensitivity reactions
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 36
Intraoperative phase
Prepare the skin immediately before incision using an (aqueous or alcoholbased) antiseptic preparation povidone-iodine or chlorhexidine are most suitable Cover surgical incisions with an appropriate interactive dressing at the end of the operation
Changing a dressing
Before you start, make sure you have gauze pads, a box of medical gloves, surgical tape, a plastic bag, and scissors. Then:
Prepare supplies by opening the gauze packages and cutting new tape strips. Put on medical gloves. Loosen the tape around the old dressing.
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 40
Cleaning an incision
To clean the incision:
Gently wash it with soap and water to remove the crust. Do not scrub or soak the wound.
Do not use rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or iodine, which can harm the tissue and slow wound healing.
Air-dry the incision or pat it dry with a clean, fresh towel before reapplying the dressing.
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 43
Do not
Don't expose your incision to direct sun for 3 to 9 months after surgery. As an incision heals, the new skin that is formed over the cut is very sensitive to sunlight and will burn more easily than normal skin. Bad scarring could occur if you get sunburn on this new skin.

swab of a wound should only be taken if clinical infection is suspected. Or else the results are misleading
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 52
Details of the Wound and Antibiotic Therapy should be included in the Requests to Laboratory
The details regarding the wound should be recorded on the request formDocument condition of wound and evidence of infection including clinical symptoms any antibiotic treatment the patient on must be recorded, Clinical details will assist the microbiologist in making an accurate diagnosis.

Wound Cleansing
- Normal
Prophylactic antibiotics
Class 1 = Clean Prophylactic Class 2 = Clean contaminated antibiotics indicated Class 3 = Contaminated Class 4 = Dirty infected Therapeutic antibiotics
Dr.T.V.Rao MD

Do Remember
Once the incision is made, antibiotic delivery to the wound is impaired. Must give before incision!

Use/Choice of Antibiotics
Use only when indicated Start with broad spectrum antibiotics designed to cover likely pathogens Take cultures when possible Deescalate spectrum once pathogen is know Have a plan for duration
Dr.T.V.Rao MD 60
The SIR compares the actual number of HAIs in a facility or state with the baseline U.S. experience (i.e., standard population), adjusting for several risk factors that have been found to be most associated with differences in infection rates.

Infection is every bodys concern, it is not just Nursing staff, but Doctors have a great Role. Infections can make or break the future of Hospitals including the career of the Surgeons I wish every body is partner in Prevention of Hospital acquired infections.
