Variation in practice for preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis: a survey from an academic tertiary referral center in the United States
CONCLUSIONS: There is no clear consensus amongst providers for which antibiotic to administer for antibiotic prophylaxis despite existing guidelines. Discrepancy also exists between orthopaedic surgery and anesthesia providers in regards to appropriate antibiotic choice for patients with reported penicillin allergies. Institutions should implement evidence-based protocols for preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis and continue to prospectively monitor compliance in order to identify any inconsistencies that could result in inappropriate antibiotic prophylaxis for patients.PMID:34706755 | PMC:PMC8549297 | DOI:10.1186/s13037-021-00308-3
