4 DISCLAIMERS I am not a surgeon I do not believe that SSIs and lapses in practices are necessarily intentional/of malicious intent 7 Background: SSI >30 million surgeries/year in US #1 (tie) healthcare associated infection Expanding issues: Novel techniques Move to outpatient arena Immunosuppressed pts 8 4
5 Surgical Site Infections Major source of surgical infections = the patient s own flora If the bacterial burden, esp. at the site of the incision, can be reduced reduce risk of SSI 9 Public Reporting of SSI Rates Risk adjustment limited?consistency with application of SSI definitions Tied to payments SSI added to Centers for Medicaid and Medicare payment system for acute care hospitals Colon surgery Abd hysterectomy Services
6 Magill SS et al New Engl J Med 2018;379: Risk Factors for SSI Patient Factors: Diabetes Periop hyperglycemia Tobacco use (current) Malnutrition Prolonged pre op stay? Age Irradiation? Corticosteroid use Obesity Operative Factors: Surgical technique Poor skin prep Incorrect abx prophylaxis Use of razor Shaving night before Break aseptic technique No pre op antiseptic shower Prolonged procedure
7 New SSI Prevention Guidelines Allegranzi B et al Lancet Infect Dis 2016;16:e276+ Allegranzi B et al Lancet Infect Dis 2016;16:e288+ Berrios Torres SI et al JAMA Surg 2017;152: Surgical Antibiotic Prophylaxis
8 Who Needs Surgical Antimicrobial Prophylaxis? Recommended for all clean contaminated procedures e.g. colon, small bowel, gyn Recommended for clean procedures: a) involving insertion of intravascular prosthetic material or a prosthetic joint or b) in which an SSI would pose catastrophic risk (e.g. cardiac surgery) Contaminated/dirty procedures: Assume already on abx Should also ensure Staphylococcal coverage 15 Bowater RJ et al Ann Surg 2009;249:
9 Key Principles of Surgical Prophylaxis Tissue concentration of antimicrobial needs to be above the mean inhibitory concentration (MIC) of that drug for the organisms of concern AT THE TIME OF THE INCISION Get the D s right: Right Drug Right Dose Right Delivery (i.e. timing) Right Duration 17 Abx Given Antibiotic Concentration in Relation to Incision Concentration TOO LOW Abx Concentration in Tissue Concentration OK MIC for likely encountered organisms Incision Incision Incision Incision
10 RIGHT DELIVERY: Relation of Abx Timing to Risk for Developing SSI Time of Administration # Pts No (%) of SSI OR (95% CI) 6 >2 hrs before incision (3.8%) 4.3 ( ) 0 2 hrs before incision (0.6%) hrs after incision (1.4%) 2.1 ( ) 3 24 hrs after incision (3.3%) 5.8 ( ) 5 Infection Rate (%) > >10 Hours Before Incision Incision Hours After Incision Classen DC et al NEJM 1992;326: RIGHT DELIVERY: Relation of Abx Timing to Risk for Developing SSI Steinberg JP et al Arch Surg 2009;250:
11 Timing of Abx Prophylaxis: Still in Question? 2013 Multispecialty Guideline Give within 60 mins unless glycopeptide or quinolone 2016 WHO SSI Guideline Given within 120 mins 2017 HICPAC SSI Guideline 21 Koch CG et al J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2012;144:
12 Spectrum of activity RIGHT DRUG: Basic Principles Cover the pathogens of concern at anatomic location Bioactivity/penetration into target tissues Limited toxicity Patient allergies Cost(if all other factors equal)
13 Antibiotic Allergy and SSI Prophylaxis Retrospective cohort Hip/knee arthroplasty, hyst, colon, CABG pts Blumenthal KG et al Clin Infect Dis 2018;66: What About MRSA Coverage? Use of vancomycin recommended if outbreak situation or if local incidence levels are high Many communities do not know local incidence of MRSA (infection or colonization) Literature limited by use of non standard dosing (e.g., 1gm Q 12 hrs instead of weightbased dosing)
14 Meta analysis Studies Study Population Sample Size Comparisons Results Bolon et al Cardiothoracic pts 7 RCTs lactams vs. glycopeptides SSI 30 days post op RR 1.14 (95% CI ) Chambers et al Clean & cleancontaminated procedures 14 RCTs lactams vs. glycopeptides Similar effectiveness for SSI prevention Saleh et al Cardiac, vascular, and orthopedic surgical pts 14 RCTs lactams vs. glycopeptides No difference in SSIs; Glycopep signif reduced Staph SSI by 48% but increased resp tract infections by 54%; Cardiac: lactam signif reduced SSIs Bolon MK et al Clin Infect Dis 2004;38:1357+ Chambers D et al Surg Infections 2010;11:455+ Saleh A et al Ann Surgery 2015;261: Vancomycin for Surgical Prophylaxis What is the level of MRSA prevalence where vancomycin has benefit? STS: Use if known h/o MRSA colonization, undergoing prosthetic valve/graft placement, or healthcare exposures (hosp > 3 days, inpt transfer, on abx) Use of MRSA bundle Screen for carriage Decolonization with mupirocin Nares and at chest tube sites Add vancomycin for MRSA + pts (continue cefazolin)
15 Abx Choice: Guideline Recommendations 2017 HICPAC SSI Guideline No comment on abx choice 2016 WHO SSI Guideline No comment on abx choice 2013 Multispecialty Guideline 29 RIGHT DOSE: Gastroplasty Patients and Cefazolin Levels Cefazolin (mg/ml)? 3 gms? Forse RA et al Surgery 1989;106:
16 What About Another Dose? Tissue concentrations fall during procedure redose of Abx may be needed, but need to redose before tissues levels drop below MIC Operative Procedure Time Abx Given Abx Given Incision Vulnerable Period (Incision open, tissue abx levels low) 31 Kasatpibal N et al Surg Infections 2017;18:
17 RIGHT DURATION: How Long Should Abx be Continued? Desire to protect tubes and drains May increase risk of infection with MDRO Study in cardiac surgery patients No difference in infection rate in those w/abx 48 hrs vs. < 48 hrs Significantly risk for infection w/ resistant organisms (by 60%) w/ prolonged abx Harbarth S et al Circulation 2000;101: RIGHT DURATION: Single vs. Multiple Doses Favors single dose Favors multiple doses No benefit of multiple doses over single perioperative dose McDonald M et al Aust N Z J Surg 1998;68:
18 Abx Duration: Guideline Recommendations 2017 HICPAC SSI Guideline 2016 WHO SSI Guideline 35 How Well Do Did We Do? Timing of First Dose of Abx Bratzler DW et al Arch Surg 2005;140:
19 How Well Do Did We Do? Duration of Surgical Prophylaxis Bratzler DW et al Arch Surg 2005;140: Quality Measures for Surgical Care: SCIP 1: Abx within 1hr (2hr if vancomycin used) SCIP 2: Selection of abx SCIP 3: Timely discontinuation of Abx (24hrs, except for cardiac surgery = 48hrs)
20 S INF Core = INF 1, INF 2, INF 3 S INF = 2 or more of Any INF measure Stulberg et al JAMA 2010;303: Have the SCIP Metrics Slipped? SCIP abx prophylaxis measure reporting retired Jan 2015 With lack of transparency, focus on other quality measures has compliance faltered?
21 Reasons for Failure of Surgical Antimicrobial Prophylaxis Patient risk factors Procedural risk factors Hair removal with razor Inappropriate skin antisepsis Hypothermia during procedure Incorrect dosing/drug/delivery Antibiotic resistant pathogens When to change standard agents? 41 Staph. aureus Colonization as a Risk for Infection RCT of mupirocin in general, gynecologic, neurosurgical, and CT procedures OR of S. aureus SSI in colonized vs. non colonized placebo recipients = 4.5 ( ) Cardiac surgery patients: Carriers 9.6 times more likely to have SSI than noncolonized patients Harvest site infections: RR of S. aureus SSI in colonized vs. non colonized patients = 7.1 ( ) Perl TM et al NEJM 2002;346:1871+ Kluytmans JA et al L Infect Dis 1995;171:
22 RCTs of Mupirocin Decolonization Nosocomial S. aureus infections among surgical pts with SA carriage S. aureus SSIs among surgical pts with SA carriage van Rijen MM et al J Antimicrob Chemother 2008;61: RCT in Netherlands Adult patients admitted to departments of surgery and internal medicine screened for SA carriage (PCR) Carriers randomized to mupirocin CHG decolonization vs. placebo soap & ointment Mupirocin: BID for 5 days CHG: Daily for 5 days Reapplication at 3 weeks and 6 weeks if still hospitalized Bode LGM et al NEJM 2010;362:
23 N = 6771 screened 1251 SA+ (18.5%) 918 randomized Placebo group with signif. more immunocompromised pts. No data on compliance w/ other SSI prevention measures Bode LGM et al NEJM 2010;362:9+ 45 Assessed bundle to reduce S. aureus SSIs 20 hospitals in 9 states Cardiac, hip arthroplasty, knee arthroplasty Bundle: If SA nasal screen +: Intranasal mupirocin BID and daily CHG bathing x 5 days pre op Added vancomycin if MRSA + carrier Schweitzer ML et al JAMA 2015;313:
24 RR 0.58 (95% CI ) Schweitzer ML et al JAMA 2015;313: Screening + Decolonization Benefits: It s cheap (maybe) It s easy (usually) It works (in some pts) Risks: Increased infections due to other pathogens? Resistance development Questions: Does effect last? Use in all populations? Costs of screening? Which screening test? Impact of mupirocin resistance
25 RCT adults undergoing clean contaminated GI/GU/GYN/Thoracic surgery at 6 sites Chlorhexidine alcohol vs. povidone iodine Outcome: Any SSI within 30 days N = 849 Overall SSI Rate: P I group: 16.1% CHG alcohol group: 9.5% RR: 0.59 (95% CI: ) Darouiche RO et al NEJM 2010;362: NNT to prevent 1 SSI = 17 Darouiche RO et al NEJM 2010;362:
26 Impact noted with superficial and deep SSI, NOT organ space SSI The weight of evidence suggests that chlorhexidine alcohol should replace povidone iodine as the standard for preoperative surgical scrubs. Common criticism: No comparison with povidone + alcohol was benefit due to combination with alcohol?? Darouiche RO et al NEJM 2010;362:18+ Wenzel RP NEJM 2010;362: Surgical Skin Antisepsis CHG based prep appears to be best Avoid use with: < 2 month old Mucous membranes Contact with meninges**
27 CHG Pre Operative Bathing Reductions in skin bacterial colonization in some studies Significant SSI reductions not noted in many studies Different methods and preparations used? Removed immediately after application? Use of agents that inactivate CHG 53 Chlebicki MP et al Am J Infect Control 2013;41:
28 Skin Prep: Guideline Recommendations 2017 HICPAC SSI Guideline 2016 WHO SSI Guideline 55 Hypoxia & SSI: Pathophysiology WBC bactericidal activity secondary to oxidative killing Use of superoxide radicals Dependent upon partial pressure of O 2 in tissue Disruption of local vascular supply O 2 Provision of higher FiO2 reduced SSI?
