Journal ArticleDOI
APSIC guidelines for the prevention of surgical site infections
Moi Lin Ling,Anucha Apisarnthanarak,Azlina Amir Abbas,Keita Morikane,Kil Yeon Lee,Anup Warrier,Koji Yamada +6 more
TL;DR: This document describes the guidelines and recommendations for the setting prevention of surgical site infections and recommends that healthcare facilities review specific risk factors and develop effective prevention strategies, which would be cost effective at local levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors Associated with Surgical Site Infection in Colorectal Surgery: The Japan Nosocomial Infections Surveillance
TL;DR: For colorectal operations, inclusion of additional variables routinely collected in JANIS can more accurately predict SSI risk than can the NNIS risk index alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
A norovirus outbreak associated with environmental contamination at a hotel.
TL;DR: This outbreak suggests that environmental differences can affect the propagation and persistence of a norovirus outbreak following environmental contamination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristic features of abdominal organ injuries associated with gastric rupture in blunt abdominal trauma.
Hiroki Shinkawa,Hiroshi Yasuhara,Shuji Naka,Keita Morikane,Yoshitaka Furuya,Hirotaka Niwa,Tsuyoshi Kikuchi +6 more
TL;DR: The results of this study showed that the distended stomach tends to rupture by absorbing the impact from blunt abdominal trauma (i.e., it works like an airbag to protecting adjacent organs such as the liver and pancreas).
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of surgical site infections after open and laparoscopic colon and rectal surgeries on postoperative resource consumption
Haruhisa Fukuda,Keita Morikane,Manabu Kuroki,Shin Kawai,Kouji Hayashi,Yuko Ieiri,H Matsukawa,K Okada,Fumie Sakamoto,Takashi Shinzato,S Taniguchi +10 more
TL;DR: This study quantified the impact of SSIs on resource consumption and confirmed significant cost variations among hospitals, which could not be explained by patient characteristics or infection type.
