Association of bacteria (CFU) and particles,Environmental parameters association with surgical site infections

Summary

Postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) is a serious and complicated
 healthcare-associated infection (HAI) affecting about 2% of patients undergoing orthopedic
 surgery. Exogenous infections, could occur from insufficient air quality in operating rooms
 as shown in previous studies. However, from our knowledge, no study have collect
 environmental parameters and cross referenced the data with recorded patient registries to
 see if insufficient air quality is associated with higher risk of exogenous SSI. Temperature,
 humidity and the difference in air pressure in relation to the operating room and the
 adjacent corridors are examples of environmental parameters that could affect the air quality
 in operating rooms. Number of persons during an operation and particle counts could also give
 an indication of insufficient air quality.
