Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) in patients with craniotomy, and to provide reference for prevention and control strategies of SSI.

Methods

Total of 545 patients after craniocerebral operation were observed by prospective targeted surveillance method. The clinical data were analyzed by statistical software SPSS 19.0.

Results

Among the 545 cases, 32 had postoperative SSI, the infection rate was 5.87%. The univariate analysis showed that longer than 4 hours of operation time, intraoperative blood loss more than 300 ml, without prophylactic use of antibiotics, prolonged postoperative and overall hospitalization were high risk factors for SSI (all P < 0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that prophylactic use of antibiotics was an independently protective factor for SSI (OR = 0.256, 95%CI: 0.090-0.726), while the prolonged overall hospitalization was an independently risk factor for the occurrence of SSI (OR = 6.601, 95%CI: 1.136-38.350).

Conclusions

The incidence of SSI among patients undergoing craniotomy was the combined effect of several factors. Comprehensive interventions should be actively adopted, in order to reduce the rate of surgical sites infection.
