Antibiotic Prophylaxis for Inguinal Hernia Repair
Mazaki.JACS 2013; 217: 788-801
Antibiotic ProphylaxisDemonstrated Benefit: All Procedures??
• Review of prophylaxis meta-analyses suggests that there is a consistent relative risk of wound infection less than one associated with antibiotic prophylaxis.
• This is independent of the type of operation or of the baseline (placebo) rate of infection.

Relative Effect of Prophylactic Antibiotics Arranged by Wound Category
Bowater. Ann Surg 2009;249: 551–556
Prophylaxis for Clean procedures?Relative reduction of SSI with prophylaxis is the
same for all procedures (30-70%)
Absolute reduction is less if baseline rate with placebo is less.
Decision on whether to use depends on 1) cost of prophylaxis ($, side effects,
generating resistance) and
2) cost of infection ($, disability, etc).

Timing, Dose, Redose, Weight
All the evidence suggests that having effective drug levels in tissue and blood (more is better) during the entire operation reduces SSI risk.
Dosing close to incision, redosing, and using weight based dosing are logical ways to accomplish this.

Dose of Antibiotic for Prophylaxis
• Always give at least a full therapeutic dose of antibiotic.
• Consider the upper range of doses for large patients and/or long operations.
• Consider repeating doses for long operations.

Antibiotic ProphylaxisDuration
Most studies have confirmed efficacy of ≤12 hrs.
Many studies have shown efficacy of a single dose.
Whenever compared, the shorter course has been as effective as the longer course.

Multivariate Analysis
Odds ratio = 1.27 for every20 mg% increase in mean glucose level during hospitalization (p=0.008).
Mean glucose more significant than any single level above 200 Mg% or not.

Practice guidelines for preoperative fasting and the use of pharmacologic agents to reduce the risk of
pulmonary aspiration: application to healthy patients undergoing elective procedures: an updated report by the American Society of Anesthesiologists Committee
on Standards and Practice Parameters. Anesthesiology 2011;114:495-511
It is appropriate to fast from intake of clear liquids at least 2 h before elective procedures requiring general anesthesia, regional anesthesia, or sedation/analgesia. Examples of clear liquids include, but are not limited to, water, fruit juices without pulp, carbonated beverages, clear tea, and black coffee. . . . The volume of liquid ingested is less important than the type of liquid ingested.

Glucose Levels & SSI• The exact “best” level of glucose control in
the perioperative period is not known.
• High glucose levels unequivocally increase the risk of SSI and other perioperative infections.
• Tight glucose control in the perioperative period is tricky.
• Hypoglycemia increases the risk of morbidity and mortality.
• When algorithms are followed at UWMC hypoglycemia is very rare.

Keeping Your Patient Warm in the O.R.
• Prewarming and active warming in the O.R. is much more important than the O.R. room temperature.
• If you raise O.R. room temperature from 20o to 27o, you still have an 10o gradient between the patient’s temperature and the room temperature and everyone in the room is miserable.
