We recommend against use of post-operative antibiotic agents in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for mild or moderate acute cholecystitis. Unfortunately, as the urologic procedure-associated risks of an SSI do not align with these traditional wound classifications (Table IV), these classifications should not be used to determine the need for AP. Verbeek JH, Ijaz S, Mischke C, et al: Personal protective equipment for preventing highly infectious diseases due to exposure to contaminated body fluids in healthcare staff. 96, Surgeons, therefore, should consider reclassifying the wound at the conclusion of the case, noting breaks in sterile technique or any inadvertent entry into bowel, urinary or vaginal tract that may have occurred.

Am J Surg 2016; 211:1077. While often effective against VRE, the use of nitrofurantoin or fosfomycin as coverage for possible enterococcal AP is not recommended due to the poor tissue concentrations achievable with those agents. 16 Further, there are differences between the classifications of surgical complications with the Clavien-Dindo classification scoring a complication differently than the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations. 1, Mechanical bowel prep using oral antimicrobials is recommended prior to elective colorectal surgical procedures. 17 Lastly, it is unlikely that high volume data on SSI and the impact of AP will be available in the near term for most urologic procedures; SSI are currently reported for inpatient hospital procedures, and most urology cases are increasingly performed as 23-hour stays or less. Many more of these trials are needed, specifically comparing single-dose AP for Class I skin incisions versus no antibiotics and comparing single-dose AP versus multiple-doses for higher-risk patients and procedures.

Multiple questions remain unanswered, admittedly because of the low incidence of measurable events: registries would allow for risk calculation of orthopedic joint infection subsequent to GU procedures, and would appropriately assess blood cultures correlated with concurrent periprosthetic joint cultures, perhaps using advanced microbiologic techniques 158 to enhance source localization.

WebTiming of antibiotic administration is critical to efficacy. 129 Alcohol rubs with additional antiseptic ingredients as well as chlorhexidine gluconate scrubs may reduce colony forming units compared with aqueous scrubs or povidone iodine hand scrubbing; however, this does not translate into a decrease in SSIs. Medina-Polo J, Sopena-Sutil R, Benitez-Sala R, et al: Prospective study analyzing risk factors and characteristics of healthcare-associated infections in a urology ward.

J Endourol 2016; 30: 63. SSI reports for clean-contaminated wounds ranges from 3% in a tightly case-controlled study of hysterectomies 93 to 9.9% where patients reported having had a UTI after ureteroscopy 94 to 18% with more complex open bariatric, colonic, or gynecologic oncology cases. These risks include American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification greater than or equal to 2, and length of procedure >3 hours. A plea to urologists to practice antibiotic stewardship. Properly collected urine microscopy that does not reveal fungal forms appears adequate for screening for funguria and obviates the need for fungal cultures.

The documentation of SSI associated with outpatient and short-stay procedures is inadequate as illustrated by an older study that reported that 84% of SSI occurred after discharge and, therefore, were underreported. Yamamoto T, Takahashi S, Ichihara K, et al: How do we understand the disagreement in the frequency of surgical site infection between the CDC and Clavien-Dindo classifications?

When indicated, a single oral dose given within an hour prior to the procedure, although dependent upon the agents oral pharmacokinetics, is sufficient and was the route chosen in nearly all reviewed studies.

ASB is erroneously used in many other studies as an end-point; while bacteriuria can be persistent, the risk of development of a symptomatic UTI is poorly defined and varies with patient and procedural characteristics. 53, The reported risk of either superficial or deep SSI for a Class I/clean procedure in the absence of identifiable host-related risk factors is approximately 4%. Historically, the identification of ASB normally occurring in 3-5% of women being associated with a 40% risk of pyelonephritis during their pregnancies lead to treatment of ASB in this cohort.
