Project description:IntroductionWorldwide, surgery related deaths within 30 days of the procedure accounts the third contributor among all causes of deaths, with an estimated 4.2 million people annually and half of these deaths occur in low and middle income countries.ObjectiveTo determine the pooled prevalence of surgical site infection following cesarean section and its predictors in Ethiopia.MethodsA systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted by using PRISMA guideline. An appropriate and comprehensive search of PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Google Scholar, HINARI and Scopus was done. This SRMA included all articles conducted in all regional state of Ethiopia reporting the prevalence/proportion/incidence of SSI after cesarean section and/or associated factors. All observational study designs were included in this SRMA. Articles which lack our outcome of interest: SSI following cesarean section and its predictors were excluded from this SRMA. The I2 statistic was used to quantify heterogeneity across studies. Funnel plot asymmetry and Egger's tests were used to check for publication bias. A random effect model was used to estimate the pooled prevalence of SSI. Adjusted Odds Ratio (OR) with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) was also considered to determine the association of identified variables with SSI. Statistical analysis was conducted using STATA version 17 software.ResultInitially 6334 studies were identified and finally 19 studies were found eligible for the analysis. Studies with a score of 7 and above were included for the final systematic review and meta-analysis. The review was comprised of 14 cross sectional studies, 4 cohort and one case control studies. The pooled estimate of SSI in Ethiopia was 11.13% (95%CI, 9.29-12.97%). Prolonged labor (AOR = 3.16, 95% CI; (2.14-4.68)), chorioamnionitis (AOR = 4.26, 95% CI; (1.99-8.91)), prolonged PROM (AOR = 3.80, 95% CI; (2.51-5.62)), repeated vaginal examination (AOR = 3.80, 95% CI; (2.45-5.88)), decreased hemoglobin level (AOR = 4.57, 95%CI; (3.16-6.60)), vertical skin incision (AOR = 3.09, 95% CI; (2.04-4.67)) and general anesthesia (AOR = 1.82, 95% CI (1.21-2.75)) are significantly associated with SSI after cesarean section in Ethiopia.ConclusionSSI after cesarean section in Ethiopia is high. Prolonged labor, chorioamnionits, prolonged PROM, repeated vaginal examination, decreased Hgb level, vertical skin incision and general anesthesia were positively associated. Thus, evidence based intra-partum care should be practiced.

Project description:Healthcare-associated infections pose one of the most severe threats to patients' health and remain a major challenge for healthcare providers globally. Among healthcare-associated infections, surgical site infection is one of the most commonly reported infections. It remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality across the world. The aim of this study was to provide a pooled incidence of surgical site infection among patients on a regional and global scale. This study was conducted under the PRISMA guidelines developed for systematic review and meta-analysis. The studies were searched using electronic databases (SCOPUS, PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Google Scholar, DOAJ, and MedNar) from June 1st, 2022 to August 4th, 2022, using Boolean logic operators (AND, OR, and NOT), Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), and keywords. The quality of the study was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Assessment tool to determine the relevance of each included article to the study. A comprehensive meta-analysis version 3 was used to estimate the pooled prevalence of surgical site infections among the patients. A total of 2124 articles were retrieved from the included electronic databases. Finally, after applying inclusion criteria, 43 articles conducted in 39 countries were included in the current study. The global pooled incidence of SSI was found to be 2.5% (95% CI: 1.6, 3.7). Based on the subgroup analysis by WHO region and survey period, the incidence of SSI was 2.7% (95% CI: 2.2, 3.3%) and 2.5% (95% CI: 1.8, 3.5%), respectively. The highest incidence was reported in the African Region (7.2% [95% CI: 4.3, 11.8%]) and among studies conducted between 1996 and 2001 (2.9% [95% CI: 0.9%, 8.8%]). This study revealed that the overall pooled incidence of SSI was 2.5%. SSI estimates varied among the WHO regions of the world. However, the highest incidence (2.7%) was observed in the African region. This indicates that there is a need to implement safety measures, including interventions for SSI prevention to reduce SSI and improve patient safety.

Project description:BackgroundSurgical site infection is a common complication in patients who underwent surgery. The prevalence is higher in low-income countries. In Ethiopia, prevalence and pathogens of surgical site infection (SSI) reported are variable. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to find the pooled prevalence of SSI. Besides, it aimed to find pathogens of surgical site infection in Ethiopia.MethodsThe databases for the search were PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar by the date 21/08/2018. To assess publication bias Egger's test regression analysis was applied. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on the study population and region.ResultsThis meta-analysis included a total of 15 studies with 8418 study subjects. The pooled prevalence of surgical site infection was 25.22% (95% CI: 17.30 to 33.14%). Staphylococcus aureus (30.06%) was the most common pathogen identified. Followed by Escherichia coli (19.73%), Klebsiella species (17.27%), and Coagulase-Negative staphylococci (12.43%) were the commonly isolated pathogens.ConclusionsThe national prevalence of surgical site infection was high. The most common identified pathogen was Staphylococcus aureus. Followed by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella species, and Coagulase-Negative staphylococci. Strict adherence to surgical site infection prevention techniques needs to get more attention.

Project description:Surgical site infection is the most common healthcare-associated infection. Surgical site infection after surgery for hand trauma is associated with increased antibiotic prescribing, re-operation, hospital readmission and delayed rehabilitation, and in severe cases may lead to amputation. As the risk of surgical site infection after surgery for hand trauma remains unclear, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of all primary studies of hand trauma surgery, including randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, case-control studies and case series. A total of 8836 abstracts were screened, and 201 full studies with 315,618 patients included. The meta-analysis showed a 10% risk of surgical site infection in randomized control trials, with an overall risk of 5% when all studies were included. These summary statistics can be used clinically for informed consent and shared decision making, and for power calculations for future clinical trials of antimicrobial interventions in hand trauma.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most studied healthcare-associated infections, the global burden of SSI after appendectomy remains unknown.ObjectiveWe estimated the incidence of SSI after appendectomy at global and regional levels.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis.ParticipantsAppendectomy patients.Data sourcesEMBASE, PubMed and Web of Science were searched, with no language restrictions, to identify observational studies and clinical trials published between 1 January 2000 and 30 December 2018 and reporting on the incidence of SSI after appendectomy. A random-effect model meta-analysis served to obtain the pooled incidence of SSI after appendectomy.ResultsIn total, 226 studies (729 434 participants from 49 countries) were included in the meta-analysis. With regard to methodological quality, 59 (26.1%) studies had low risk of bias, 147 (65.0%) had moderate risk of bias and 20 (8.8%) had high risk of bias. We found an overall incidence of SSI of 7.0 per 100 appendectomies (95% prediction interval: 1.0-17.6), varying from 0 to 37.4 per 100 appendectomies. A subgroup analysis to identify sources of heterogeneity showed that the incidence varied from 5.8 in Europe to 12.6 per 100 appendectomies in Africa (p<0.0001). The incidence of SSI after appendectomy increased when the level of income decreased, from 6.2 in high-income countries to 11.1 per 100 appendectomies in low-income countries (p=0.015). Open appendectomy (11.0 per 100 surgical procedures) was found to have a higher incidence of SSI compared with laparoscopy (4.6 per 100 appendectomies) (p=0.0002).ConclusionThis study suggests a high burden of SSI after appendectomy in some regions (especially Africa) and in low-income countries. Strategies are needed to implement and disseminate the WHO guidelines to decrease the burden of SSI after appendectomy in these regions.Prospero registration numberCRD42017075257.

Project description:BackgroundThyroid surgery is a common surgical procedure for the treatment of thyroid diseases, such as thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, and hyperthyroidism. Despite significant advancements in surgical techniques and perioperative care, surgical site infection (SSI) remains a frequent postoperative complication, which can lead to prolonged hospital stays, increased medical costs, and decreased quality of life for patients. Identifying risk factors for SSI is crucial for developing effective prevention strategies. This study aimed to systematically investigate and quantify the incidence and risk factors associated with SSI following thyroid surgery through a meta-analysis and systematic review.MethodsA comprehensive search strategy was employed across major databases [PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, China Biology Medicine (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data] up to June 15, 2024. Additionally, we conducted a supplementary search for relevant literature up to October 4, 2024. Studies were selected based on stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria focusing on SSI risk factors in patients undergoing thyroid surgery. The methodological quality of eligible studies was critically appraised. Statistical analyses were conducted using Stata 15.1 with meta-analytic techniques to estimate means and standard deviations, and calculating odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) using appropriate effect models. Publication bias was assessed using Egger's test.ResultsThe systematic review and subsequent meta-analysis included nine studies (eight case-control and two cohort) involving a total of 127,467 patients, with 703 cases of postoperative SSI documented. Key findings indicated that prolonged surgical duration greater than 2 hours [OR =4.50; 95% CI: (2.74, 7.37); P<0.001], presence of comorbidities [OR =1.91; 95% CI: (1.16, 3.15); P=0.01], age greater than 50 years [OR =1.81; 95% CI: (1.24, 2.64); P=0.002], incision length greater than 5 cm [OR =2.79; 95% CI: (1.92, 4.04); P<0.001], lymph node dissection [OR =1.90; 95% CI: (1.28, 2.80); P=0.001], and male [OR =1.78; 95% CI: (1.38, 2.29); P<0.001] were significant risk factors for SSI after thyroid surgery. Conversely, male gender did not present a statistically significant association with SSI risk.ConclusionsSurgical duration greater than 2 hours, presence of comorbidities, age greater than 50 years, incision length greater than 5 cm, lymph node dissection, and male emerge as critical risk factors for SSI in patients recovering from thyroid surgery. However, the small number of included articles and the lack of differentiation between OR, risk ratio (RR), and hazard ratio (HR) are limitations of this analysis.

Project description:The Sars-CoV-2 pandemic catalysed integration of telemedicine worldwide. This systematic review assesses it's accuracy for diagnosis of Surgical Site Infection (SSI). Databases were searched for telemedicine and wound infection studies. All types of studies were included, only paired designs were taken to meta-analysis. QUADAS-2 assessed methodological quality. 1400 titles and abstracts were screened, 61 full text reports were assessed for eligibility and 17 studies were included in meta-analysis, mean age was 47.1 ± 13.3 years. Summary sensitivity and specificity was 87.8% (95% CI, 68.4-96.1) and 96.8% (95% CI 93.5-98.4) respectively. The overall SSI rate was 5.6%. Photograph methods had lower sensitivity and specificity at 63.9% (95% CI 30.4-87.8) and 92.6% (95% CI, 89.9-94.5). Telemedicine is highly specific for SSI diagnosis is highly specific, giving rise to great potential for utilisation excluding SSI. Further work is needed to investigate feasibility telemedicine in the elderly population group.

Project description:ImportanceInternational guidelines recommend the use of triclosan-containing sutures for the prevention of surgical site infections. However, controversy still remains about triclosan-containing suture use in clinical practice since several new randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have shown contradicting results.ObjectiveTo update a previous systematic review and meta-analysis of the association of triclosan-containing sutures with surgical site infections and explore the potential added value of new RCTs.Data sourcesPubMed, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases were searched from January 1, 2015, to March 14, 2023. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline was followed.Study selectionPublished RCTs comparing triclosan-containing sutures with similar sutures without triclosan for the prevention of surgical site infections in any type of surgery were included.Data extraction and synthesisTwo authors (H.J. and A.S.T.) independently extracted and pooled data in a random-effects (Mantel-Haenszel) model. The certainty of evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach, and trial sequential analysis was used to estimate whether further studies would reveal different outcomes.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was the incidence of surgical site infections, expressed as relative risk (RRs) and corresponding 95% CIs. Secondary outcomes were the incidence of surgical site infections according to depth (superficial incisional, deep incisional, and organ/space) and adverse events related to triclosan-containing sutures.ResultsThe systematic review yielded 15 additional RCTs compared with a previous published review in 2017. A meta-analysis of 31 studies including 17 968 participants (62% male) undergoing various types of surgery was performed. Use of triclosan-containing sutures was associated with fewer surgical site infections compared with sutures without triclosan (RR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.65-0.86). The certainty of evidence was moderate after downgrading for heterogeneity (τ2 = 0.04; I2 = 43%). In the trial sequential analysis of all trials and a sensitivity analysis excluding studies with a high risk of bias, the cumulative z curve crossed the trial sequential monitoring boundary for benefit, confirming the robustness of the summary effect estimate.Conclusions and relevanceThis updated meta-analysis found moderate-certainty evidence that wound closure with triclosan-containing sutures was associated with a lower risk of surgical site infections. The trial sequential analysis suggests that future trials that would change these findings are improbable.

Project description:IntroductionSurgical site infections (SSIs) are one of the most common postoperative complications after appendectomy leading to recurrent surgery, prolonged hospital stay, and the use of antibiotics. Numerous studies and meta-analyses have been published on the effect of open versus conventional laparoscopic appendectomy (CLA) reporting faster postoperative recovery and less postoperative pain for CLA. A development from CLA has been the single-port appendectomy (SPA), associated with a better cosmesis but seemingly having a higher risk of wound infections. The aim of this systematic literature review and meta-analysis is to investigate whether reduced port or SPA alters the ratio of SSIs.MethodsPubmed, Embase, and Cochrane databases were screened for suitable articles. All articles published between January 1, 2002, and March 23, 2022, were included. Articles regarding children below the age of 18 were excluded as well as manuscripts that investigated solemnly open appendectomies. Articles were screened for inclusion criteria by two independent authors. Incidence of SSI was the primary outcome. Duration of operation and length of hospital stay were defined as secondary outcomes.ResultsA total of 25 studies were found through a database search describing 5484 patients. A total of 2749 patients received SPA and 2735 received CLA. There was no statistical difference in the rate of SSI (P = 0.98). A total of 22 studies including 4699 patients reported the duration of operation (2223 SPA and 2476 CLA). There was a significantly shorter operation time seen in CLA. The length of hospital stay was reported in 23 studies (4735 patients: 2235 SPA and 2500 CLA). A shorter hospital stay was seen in the SPA group (P < 0.00001). Separately performed analysis of randomized controlled trials could not confirm this effect (P = 0.29).DiscussionSPA is an equally safe procedure considering SSI compared to CLA and does not lead to an increased risk of SSI. A longer operation time for SPA and a minor difference in the length of stay does lead to the use of SPA in selected patients only.

Project description:Surgical Site Infection (SSI) is one of the common postoperative complications after gastric cancer surgery. Previous studies have explored the risk factors (such as age, diabetes, anaemia and ASA score) for SSI in patients with gastric cancer. However, there are large differences in the research results, and the correlation coefficients of different research results are quite different. We aim to investigate the risk factors of surgical site infection in patients with gastric cancer. We queried four English databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library) and four Chinese databases (China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Biological Medicine Database, Wanfang Database and Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP Database)) to identify published literature related to risk factors for surgical site infection in patients with gastric cancer. Rev Man 5.4 and Stata 15.0 were used in this meta-analysis. A total of 15 articles (n = 6206) were included in this analysis. The following risk factors were found to be significantly associated with surgical site infection in gastric cancer: male (OR = 1.28, 95% CI [1.06, 1.55]), age >60 (OR = 2.75, 95% CI [1.65, 4.57]), smoking (OR = 1.99, 95% CI [1.46, 2.73]), diabetes (OR = 2.03, 95% CI [1.59, 2.61]), anaemia (OR = 4.72, 95% CI [1.66, 13.40]), preoperative obstruction (OR = 3.07, 95% CI [1.80, 5.23]), TNM ≥ III (OR = 2.05, 95% CI [1.56, 2.70]), hypoproteinemia (OR = 3.05, 95% CI [2.08, 4.49]), operation time ≥3 h (OR = 8.33, 95% CI [3.81, 18.20]), laparotomy (OR = 2.18, 95% CI [1.61, 2.94]) and blood transfusion (OR = 1.44, 95% CI [1.01, 2.06]). This meta-analysis showed that male, age >60, smoking, diabetes, anaemia, preoperative obstruction, TNM ≥ III, hypoproteinemia, operation time ≥3 h, open surgery and blood transfusion were the risk factors for SSI in patients with gastric cancer.
