Abstract

Kirurške infekcije predstavljaju značajan izvor morbiditeta, mortaliteta i troškova
povezanih uz operacije domaćih mesojeda. Najustanovljenije i najučinkovitije strategije za
smanjenje nastanka ovih infekcija su preventiva u smislu prijeoperativne pripreme
pacijenta i kirurškog tima, pravilnog odabira antimikrobnih sredstava za pripremu
operacijskog polja, poštivanje principa asepse u operacijskoj sali, odabir odgovarajuće
operacijske tehnike, postoperativna briga te usredotočenost na jačanje imuniteta pacijenta.
Kada se kirurška infekcija identificira, upotreba najnovijih saznanja i terapija zasnovanih
na kulturi stanica pomažu u nadzoru daljnjeg tijeka infekcije, a pri odabiru same terapije
treba uzeti u obzir povećanu incidenciju od nastanka multirezistentnih patogena u
veterinarskih pacijenata.

Abstract (english)

Surgical site infections are a significant source of morbidity, mortality and costs
associated with small animal surgeries. The most established and effective strategies to
reduce the occurence of these infections are prevention in terms of preoperative preparation
of the patient and surgical team, proper selection of antimicrobial agents for preparation of
the operating field, awareness of asepsis principles in the operating room, selection of
appropriate surgical techniques, postoperative care and putting focus on strenghtening of
the immunity. Once a surgical site infection is identified the use of the latest knowledge
and culture-based therapy are usefull in monitoring the further course of the infection, and
the increased incidence of multidrug-resistant pathogens in veterinary patients should be
considered when selecting the therapy.
