Research Abstract

In the present study, we sought to investigate the efficacy of strict preoperative skin preparation conventionally practiced in Japan to prevent surgical site infection (SSI) following THA. We enlisted 40 personnel at a facility practicing strict preoperative skin preparation (group1) and 149 personnel at a facility practicing preoperative skin preparation in accordance with the Guideline (group2). We then compared the SSI risk factors and infection rates among these two groups, and found that neither group experienced any SSIs. In group1, "disinfecting the skin by scrubbing and applying sterilized covers" on the day before surgery took two nurses 25 minutes to perform, and "disinfecting the skin" on the day of surgery took two nurses 11 minutes to perform. These findings indicate that there is no evidence confirming the need for conventional strict skin preparation practices, and that urgent measures should be taken to remedy the current approach in consideration of patient burden.
