The Infection Control Route in the Operating Room Effectively Reduces the Wound Infection of Patients.

Surgical care is one of the significant aspects of global healthcare, with approximately 234 million operations being conducted annually. Surgical treatment has a substantial risk of complications and death. This study was conducted to explore the application effect of the infection control route in the operating room on the wound infection prevention care of patients. The clinical data of 136 patients receiving surgical treatment from October 2018 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The participants were assigned via random draw at a ratio of 1 : 1 to receive either routine care management (control group) or the infection control route (research group). The surgical wound infections of patients in the two groups were compared. The research group had higher scores in surgical materials management and disinfectant management than the control group ( < 0.01). In the research group, the total number of colonies within 5 minutes before surgery, 25 minutes after the start of surgery, and after surgery were all smaller than those in the control group ( < 0.01). There were no significant differences in the grade B healing rate between the two groups ( > 0.05), and the research group had a significantly higher healing rate in grade A than the control group, but its grade C healing rate and wound infection rate were significantly lower than those in the control group ( < 0.05). In the research group, the length of hospital stay, the time to get out of bed, the antibiotic use duration, and the stitch removal time was significantly shorter than those in the control group ( < 0.0001). The research group received a higher clinical nursing satisfaction than the control group ( < 0.05). The infection control route in the operating room for infection prevention care effectively reduces the wound infection rate of patients and accelerates their postoperative recovery.
