Description

<p>Surgical site infections (SSIs) account for a large proportion of healthcare-associated infections and are a worldwide problem in terms of patient and medical burden. The Japanese Society for Surgical Infection published the “Guidelines for the prevention, detection, and management of gastroenterological surgical site infection, 2018” in 2018. We compared this guideline with those of other countries, focusing on the differences in the content of the recommendations and the method of development. As a result, we found that this guideline is the most reliable guideline in Japan because the recommendations are based on the latest evidences and the current Japanese situation. On the other hand, this guideline does not cover surgery for peritonitis in which infection has already been established, so we hope that these areas will be covered when the guideline is revised in about 4 to 5 years. </p>
