Description

Post operative infection is a complication that we have to avoid most. Preventive dosage antibiotic and sterilization are therefore performed habitually. However, the excessive use of antibiotic multidrug resistance bacteria. In addition, there are many reports that sterilization of postoperative wound is not necessary. Taking this into consideration, we use antibiotics only on the operative day or next day according to the operation performed and do not perform sterilization in principle. So far, we have not experienced outbreak of serious infections after operation. This indicates that opportunities of infection do not increase even if we shorten the period of use of antibiotics and do not perform sterilization.
