Abstract

Background: SURGICAL SITE INFECTION is a major concern in surgery and has a high prevalence RATe in many developing countries. There are many controversies on the use of drains as they may not reduce the risk of infections. In this pilot experimental study, we are introducing a modification in placing TUBE DRAINS to reduce the risk of SURGICAL SITE INFECTIONs.Materials and methods: Ninety albino male RATs were used in three groups. In group one (test), the drains were placed subcutaneously, and were then fixed to the skin after making a two-turn crossing-over circular loop. In group two (control), the drain was just simply tied to the skin and in group three (sham), a skin incision was created without any drain placement. Animals were followed for signs of infection for one week and were then examined for microbiologic evidences of infection.Results: There were no significant differences among groups in terms of clinical signs of infection; however, the colonization RATe by gram positive cocci was significantly lower in test group (p<0.001).Conclusion: This finding implies that our method may impair retrograde transfer of germs into the surgical site hence reducing the RATe of infections.
