dc.description.abstract | Surgical site infections are a common complication of Gynaecological surgeries. Up to 8-10% of Gynaecological patients undergoing an operative procedure will develop a surgical site infection. In surgeries with high rates of post-operative infection, antibiotic prophylaxis can play a major role in improving outcomes. In addition there are many indications where antimicrobial treatment is necessary in day-to-day Gynaecological practice. This review summarizes the available medical literature to assess the indications and appropriate antimicrobials for common circumstances in Gynaecological practice. | en_US |
