Background. This document is based upon the 2013 consensus guidelines from American Society of Health-System. Pharmacists (ASHP), the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), the Surgical Infection Society (SIS) and the Society for Healthcare
These guidelines were developed jointly by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP), the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), the Surgical Infection Society (SIS), and the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA). This work represents an update to the previously published ASHP
Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a common cause of healthcare-associated infection. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has developed criteria that define surgical site infection as infection related to an operative.
This work represents an update to the previously published ASHP Therapeutic Guidelines on Antimicrobial Prophylaxis in Surgery, as well as guidelines from IDSA and SIS. Prophylaxis refers to the prevention of an infection and can be characterized as primary prophylaxis, secondary prophylaxis, or eradication.

1 Jun 1998 Appropriately administered antibiotic prophylaxis reduces the incidence of surgical wound infection. Prophylaxis is uniformly recommended for all clean-contaminated, contaminated and dirty procedures. It is considered optional for most clean procedures, although it may be indicated for certain patients
Surgical Antibiotic Prophylaxis Guideline: Adults. Key principles of surgical prophylaxis. * Only use antibiotic prophylaxis if there is a significant risk of infection. * Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis should not be the only strategy used to reduce the risk of postoperative infection. Minimising the risk requires a comprehensive.
3 May 2017 The Core Section of this guideline (eAppendix 1 of the Supplement) includes recommendations for the prevention of SSI that are generalizable across surgical procedures, with some exceptions as mentioned below. Parenteral Antimicrobial Prophylaxis. 1A.1. Administer preoperative antimicrobial agents
reduce the incidence of surgical site infection. Antibiotic prophylaxis should be regarded as one component of an effective policy for the control of healthcare associated infection. Most of the recommendations in this guideline apply to elective surgery but some emergency operations are included (see section 3.1.2).
