Oral antibiotics and mechanical bowel preparation for colorectal surgery: a prospective observational study of surgical site infection and microbial analysis

2023-06-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose: </h4> Surgical site infections (SSIs) are common in colorectal surgery. Mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) in conjunction with oral antibiotics (OABs) have been shown to reduce SSI rates. It however is still unclear which OABs to use, and how this can be implemented in practice. Methods This is a prospective observational study carried out in Swansea Bay University Health Board during 2019–2021, eva...
