Detection of Staph Colonization in Pre-op Arthroplasty Patients

Surgical Site Infection

This study will evaluate which body site(s) provide the best source of possible staph presence in participants undergoing total joint arthroplasty. If the pre-operative cultures indicate staph presence, an Infectious Disease specialist will be consulted for standard of medical care consultation and treatment management. Participants will be followed for 2 years post-implantation of prosthetic joint to monitor development of prosthetic joint infection.

Comparison of Antibiotic Protocols in Spine Patients With Postoperative Drains

Surgical Wound InfectionSpinal Deformity1 more

In spine surgery, postoperative spinal drains are often utilized to prevent fluid buildup around the spinal cord. The purpose of this study is to determine whether postoperative antibiotic treatment continued for the duration of time a drain is in place results in a lower infection rate than antibiotics given for only 24 hours postoperatively.

Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Prosthetic Breast Reconstructions

Surgical Site Infections

The added benefit of prolonged antibiotic prophylactic treatment in patients undergoing breast reconstruction who have drains placed for several days after surgery is controversial. In this study we aim to compare two prophylactic regimens: 1. 24 hour antibiotic treatment prior to surgery with cefazolin 2. a prolonged antibiotic regimen consisting of 48 hours cefazolin treatment followed by oral therapy with cephalexin until the removal of the drains. Patients will sign an informed consent form prior to the surgery and will be randomized to one of the antibiotic regimens. Patients will be closely followed up to one year after surgery. The number of surgical site infections according to the NNIS criteria and loss of breast implants will be compared between the two groups.

Staphylococcus Aureus Surgical Site Infection Multinational Epidemiology in Europe

Staphylococcus AureusWound Infection2 more

This is a retrospective multinational, multicenter cohort study with a nested case-control. The study includes all surgical procedures performed at a participating site to prevent bias. Data will be assessed in two populations. Cohort population: Export of electronic file data on demographics, surgical procedure ICPM code, duration of procedure, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, body mass index, comorbidity ICD codes, and wound class of all patients undergoing surgery. Nested case-control population: For patients establishing S. aureus SSI and 1:1 matched controls from the same center further data will be captured: Length of hospitalization, length of ICU stay and reason as well as attribution to SSI, survival at 30 and at 90 days, antibiotic treatments including duration, functional status at admission and at final discharge; necessity for surgical revision, and death attributed to SSI. If readmission is necessary, reason and attribution to SSI, length of hospitalization and length of ICU stay as well as all antibiotic treatments and their duration will be recorded. The cases causative pathogens including resistance patterns and type of SSI according to CDC criteria will be captured. Matching criteria comprise the following: Type of procedure Age ASA score BMI Duration of procedure (as percentile for this procedure) Diabetes Sex
