Key Highlights
SSI is a common healthcare-associated infection with significant impacts on hospitalization and costs. Bundled interventions are more effective than isolated measures for SSI prevention. Digital tools enhance nursing surveillance and can improve infection detection. Risk stratification and standardized pathways are essential for effective SSI management.
Guideline-Based Recommendations
Diagnosis
Utilize electronic health record-based screening for SSI risk identification.
Management
Implement bundled interventions including antimicrobial prophylaxis and aseptic techniques.
