A prospective study of 72 operations in which one or more suction drains were inserted, showed that cultures of the drains did not have any predictive value for the development of signs of infection. Protracted suction drainage could, however, increase the risk of postoperative infection.
一项针对72例手术(术中插入了一根或多根吸引引流管)的前瞻性研究表明,引流管培养物对感染迹象的发生没有任何预测价值。然而,长时间的吸引引流可能会增加术后感染的风险。
