Antibiotic prophylaxis and other factors influencing infection risk reduction in hand and forearm fracture surgery: A narrative review
Surgical site infection is a serious complication of fracture surgery that often requires antibiotic treatment, implant removal, and wound debridement. Antibiotic prophylaxis is one of the measures taken to reduce the risk of surgical site infection. Other factors influencing the risk of infection include leaving the ends of the K-wires protruding through the skin vs. buried under the skin, operating under full sterility vs. field sterility in the operating room, or the burden of comorbidities.
The purpose of this study was to review the current literature on antibiotic prophylaxis and other factors that influence the risk of infection during surgery for hand and distal radial fractures. We also reviewed the literature on potential adverse effects and costs of antibiotic prophylaxis.
Results. Three studies and one systematic review were identified for the operative treatment of closed hand and distal radius fractures, none of which supported the routine use of antibiotic prophylaxis. For leaving the ends of K-wires exposed versus burying them under the skin, two articles were found. One reported an increased risk of surgical site infection when K-wires are left exposed, and the other reported that it does not matter.
Three studies reported harmful and adverse effects of unnecessary use of antibiotic prophylaxis. Two studies reported an increased risk of surgical site infection in patients with comorbidities, compromised immunity, smoking, and alcohol use. The routine use of antibiotic prophylaxis generates significant costs that can be avoided if it is used as recommended by evidence-based medicine.
Conclusion. The authors believe that this review may have many beneficial effects for patients and the health care system, such as: preventing bacterial resistance, increasing the efficacy of antibiotics in true infections, reducing the risk of adverse reactions, and reducing health care costs.
期刊介绍:
As the official publication of the French, Belgian and Swiss Societies for Surgery of the Hand, as well as of the French Society of Rehabilitation of the Hand & Upper Limb, ''Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation'' - formerly named "Chirurgie de la Main" - publishes original articles, literature reviews, technical notes, and clinical cases. It is indexed in the main international databases (including Medline). Initially a platform for French-speaking hand surgeons, the journal will now publish its articles in English to disseminate its author''s scientific findings more widely. The journal also includes a biannual supplement in French, the monograph of the French Society for Surgery of the Hand, where comprehensive reviews in the fields of hand, peripheral nerve and upper limb surgery are presented.
Organe officiel de la Société française de chirurgie de la main, de la Société française de Rééducation de la main (SFRM-GEMMSOR), de la Société suisse de chirurgie de la main et du Belgian Hand Group, indexée dans les grandes bases de données internationales (Medline, Embase, Pascal, Scopus), Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation - anciennement titrée Chirurgie de la main - publie des articles originaux, des revues de la littérature, des notes techniques, des cas clinique. Initialement plateforme d''expression francophone de la spécialité, la revue s''oriente désormais vers l''anglais pour devenir une référence scientifique et de formation de la spécialité en France et en Europe. Avec 6 publications en anglais par an, la revue comprend également un supplément biannuel, la monographie du GEM, où sont présentées en français, des mises au point complètes dans les domaines de la chirurgie de la main, des nerfs périphériques et du membre supérieur.
