Surgical Site Infections:
Preparing Our Patients For Surgery
Our Last Call Together
• Three problems that sit at the core of surgical
site infections
– Doing reliably what we know needs to be done
– Teamwork and communication
– Always being vigilant about keeping the patient
safe

Chlorhexidine Wipes
Preoperative Bacterial Screening
Keeping Your Patient Warm
Alcohol-Based Skin Preps
Chlorhexidine Wipes:
Common Sense Science
• Bacteria on the skin is bad. Wiping the skin with chlorehexidine
could be good
• Started in the ICU when patients who bathed with chlorexidine
impregnated cloths on a daily basis developed fewer bloodstream
infections
• Patients are less likely to develop a SSI if they use wipes the night
and morning before their procedure1
• 50% overall reduction in SSI in orthopaedic surgery1
• Studies show that even if patients are not fully compliant wipes still
can have an impact2

Healthcare
Improvement has
examples of patient
materials for preparing
skin before surgery

Preoperative Bacterial Screening:
Common Sense Science
• Patients who carry Staphylococcus aureus
(SA) are more likely to develop a surgical
site infection
• Patients should be screened prior to
surgery
• Schedule the screening so there is enough
time to kill the bacteria

Keeping Your Patient Warm:
Common Sense Science
• Human beings are warm-blooded
• The body fights infection better when it is
warm
• The operating room is a cold place
• Keeping patients warm can be a challenge
• The best thing to do is to never let your
patient get cold

Keep your patient warm
before they go to surgery
• It is like “money in the bank”
• Use warming blankets before they go into
the OR
• Think about putting a hat on your patient

Keeping Your Patient Warm
in the O.R.
• Pre-warming and active warming in the OR
is much more important than the OR room
temperature
• Put warming blankets under and over your
patient on the operating table (if possible)
• Use warmed fluids for IVs
• Use warm irrigation on the field (if possible)

Alcohol-Based Skin Preps:
Common Sense Science
• The combination of alcohol together with
another agent is probably better because
there are two things killing the bacteria
• An antibacterial prep that lasts on the skin is
better than one that doesn’t1
• If you don’t let the prep dry or wipe it off it
can’t work because it is not on the skin
anymore

rates: A prospective study of 3 skin preparation protocols. Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol.
No skin prep will be effective
if you don’t use it the way that
you are supposed to
• Let the prep completely dry prior to draping
• Avoid pooling of the skin prep
