Use of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Hand Surgeries in Colombia.
Purpose: The aim of the investigation was to determine the rate of prophylactic antibiotic use in hand surgeries and the factors related to their use in a group of Colombian patients.
Methods: This was a descriptive study of patients undergoing hand surgery between January 2021 and December 2022. Sociodemographic, clinical, and pharmacological variables were analyzed. The use of prophylactic antibiotics in clean wounds was considered inappropriate except in those who needed placement of an internal fixation implant. Variables related to inappropriate use of prophylactic antibiotics were analyzed.
Results: A total of 523 patients were reviewed, with an average age of 44.3 years; 51.2% were men. Most of the patients had a diagnosis of hand fracture (28.7%), trigger finger (24.5%), or ganglion (18.5%). The surgical wound was considered clean in 79.0% of cases. A total of 91.0% received prophylactic antibiotics, mostly cefazolin (63.3%). Some 55.7% were considered inappropriate by our criteria. Women (odds ratio [OR], 3.19; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.85-5.47), middle-low to high socioeconomic status (OR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.05-3.38), treatment in clinic #1 (OR, 9.67; 95% CI, 4.81-19.43), history of diabetes mellitus (OR, 2.90; 95% CI, 1.07-7.86), and diagnosis of trigger finger (OR, 19.92; 95% CI, 9.95-39.88), ganglion (OR, 24.53; 95% CI, 11.72-51.34), or tenosynovitis (OR, 19.61; 95% CI, 6.78-56.73) were associated with receiving inappropriate prophylactic antibiotics. At hospital discharge, 60.6% received prophylactic antibiotics.
Conclusions: In a low-middle income country, the use of inappropriate antibiotics in hand surgical procedures is as common as in higher-income countries. The causes appear multifactorial, including the characteristics of the health systems, doctors, and patients.
