Abstract:

Surgical site infections (SSIs) are defined as infections occurring within 30 days after a surgery or within one year if an implant is left in place after the procedure. This was a hospital based Prospective Observational Study carried out at department of Microbiology, Dr S.N medical college, Jodhpur, Rajasthan. The study was done between December 2021 to December 2022. Total 210 wound samples were collected. 210 patients were enrolled in the present study. Age-wise distribution shows more SSI in age group of 21-30 (58.57%) years. Escherichia coli was most predominant isolate in 45.83% cases followed by Staphylococcus aureus39.25%.42.08 % MRSA and 55.55% ESBL were found in the present study. Appropriate preoperative, intra-operative and post operative patient care, proper infection control, sterilization protocols in OT and Post operative ICUs and juidicious use of antibiotic can decrease the risk of Surgical Site Infection and cost of treatment.
