Abstract

In this review, surgical wound infection and the use of prophylactic antibiotics in surgery have been evaluated.Surgical wound infections are the complications that cause serious economic losses in animals. Operation wounds facilitatethe entering of infectious bacteria into the body through direct contamination of organ and tissue with the contaminantsoutside. For an effective antibiotic prophylaxis, antibiotics must be present in sufficient concentrations in operation sideto prevent the proliferation of microorganisms and kill those that contaminate the area during the operation. Althoughprophylactic administration of antibiotics reduces the incidence of surgical wound infections, improper use of antibiotics leadsto unnecessary expenses, resulting in increased antibiotic resistance or superinfections. As a result, it is concluded thatsurgical asepsis and the use of appropriate antibiotics prophylaxis are very important for the prevention of surgical woundinfections

Özet

Bu derlemede, cerrahi yara enfeksiyonu ve cerrahide profilaktik antibiyotik kullanımı değerlendirilmektedir. Hayvanlardacerrahi yara enfeksiyonları ciddi ekonomik kayıplara yol açan bir komplikasyondur. Operasyon yaraları organ ve dokuların,dışarıdaki kontaminantlarla direkt olarak temasına neden olarak, enfeksiyona neden olan bakterilerin içeri girmesinisağlamış olurlar. Etkili bir antibiyotik profilaksisi için, antibiyotiklerin operasyon boyunca bölgeyi kontamine eden patojenmikroorganizmaları öldürmek ve üremesini engellemek için operasyon bölgesinde yeterli konsantrasyonlarda bulunmasıgerekir. Profilaktik olarak antibiyotik uygulanması cerrahi yara enfeksiyonu insidensini azaltmasına rağmen, uygun olmayanantibiyotiğin kullanılması gereksiz masraflar, antibiyotik direncinin artması ve süperenfeskiyonlarla sonuçlanır. Sonuç olarak,cerrahi yara enfeksiyonlarından korunmada, cerrahi asepsiye ve profilaktik olarak uygun antibiyotiğin kullanılmasına sadıkkalmanın oldukça önemli olduğu kanısına varılmıştır.
