In the plastic surgery patient population, outpatient surgery is cost effective and will continue to grow as the preferred arena for performing surgery in healthy patients. Although there is a widespread myth that outpatient surgery centers may suffer from increased infection rates due to lax infection control, the data presented from American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities-accredited facilities prove the contrary. There is a lack of data investigating infection prevention in the perioperative period in plastic surgery patients. As data collection becomes more refined, tracking the postoperative care environment should offer additional opportunities to lower the incidence of postoperative infections.
在整形手术患者群体中，门诊手术具有成本效益，并且随着在健康患者中进行手术的首选领域，它将继续增长。尽管有一种普遍的误解认为，由于放松感染控制，门诊手术中心可能会遭受更高的感染率，但美国门诊手术设施认证机构提供的数据证明了事实正好相反。在整形手术患者的围手术期，缺乏关于感染预防的数据调查。随着数据收集变得更加精细，跟踪术后护理环境应该提供更多机会降低术后感染的发生率。
