Summary
Surgical-site infection is the most commonly reported nosocomial infection in patients
undergoing surgery and 3rd most nosocomial infection in hospitalized patients. The SSI is
associated with increases of length of hospitalization for 6 days and increases the
hospital's cost by $ 300.
Because of these, prevention of SSI with appropriate antibiotic is essential.
