The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of wound infection among patients with abdominal surgeries and to compare the surgical site infection following elective versus emergency abdominal surgeries in a tertiary care hospital.
All patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria in the Department of General Surgery were included in the study. After taking informed written consent history was taken, clinical examination and patients were divided into two groups: group A (elective abdominal surgery) and group B (emergency abdominal surgery), patients in both groups were compared for the outcome that is surgical site infection.
A total of 140 patients who underwent abdominal surgery were included. Wound infection in abdominal surgeries was noted in 26 patients (18.6%), in group A wound infection was noted in 7 (5%), while in group B wound infection was seen in 19 (13.6%).
The rate of wound infection in patients with abdominal surgeries was not low among the study population and the rate of wound infection was higher in emergency abdominal surgeries as compared with elective abdominal surgeries.
本研究的目的是确定腹部手术患者伤口感染的发生率，并比较三级医院择期与急诊腹部手术后手术部位感染情况。
普通外科所有符合纳入标准的患者均纳入本研究。在获得知情书面同意后，采集病史、进行临床检查，并将患者分为两组：A组（择期腹部手术）和B组（急诊腹部手术），比较两组患者手术部位感染这一结局。
共纳入140例接受腹部手术的患者。腹部手术患者中26例（18.6%）出现伤口感染，A组7例（5%）出现伤口感染，而B组19例（13.6%）出现伤口感染。
在研究人群中，腹部手术患者的伤口感染率不低，且急诊腹部手术的伤口感染率高于择期腹部手术。
