Microbiologic Assessment of Non-Surgical Traumatic Wound Infections and Surgical Site Infections in Hospitalized Patients

摘要

Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the most common nosocomial infections in surgical patients. Depending on the source of a traumatic wound, particular pathogens are expected to be present while their prevalence varies in different conditions. This study focused on determination of microorganisms in traumatic wound infection and the frequency of Staphylococcus aureus and other organisms in SSIs.
