Predictors of surgical site infections following cesarean delivery in public hospitals of West Ethiopia: A cohort study

This study demonstrated a significant incidence density of surgical site infection within the study area. For the identified predictors, the authors recommend the need for target interventions particularly, the consistent administration of antibiotic prophylaxis and vigilant monitoring of patients with existing health complications or those undergoing emergency procedures to reduce the burden of surgical site infection in this area.

Abstract

This study demonstrated a significant incidence density of surgical site infection within the study area. For the identified predictors, the authors recommend the need for target interventions particularly, the consistent administration of antibiotic prophylaxis and vigilant monitoring of patients with existing health complications or those undergoing emergency procedures to reduce the burden of surgical site infection in this area.
