Towards Simpler and Reliable Wound Care.

urgical site infections (SSIs) are the second most common healthcare-associated infections, follow-ing respiratory tract infections (1, 2). SSIs do not only increase hospital stay and healthcare costs, but can, in case of deep SSIs, cause potentially life-threatening complications, such as sepsis. Because of the significance of SSIs, the World Health Organization (WHO) has recently published guidelines for pre-, intra- and post operative measures to prevent SSIs (1). SSI incidence rates range from 0.7% after total knee replacement, to 1.0% after total hip replacement, up to 10% after colon surgery (2). So far, the question of an ideal wound dressing for use after surgical incisions and primary wound closure has not been answered. Based on the currently available data, the WHO guidelines do not recommend “advanced” dressings, such as hydrocolloid dressing and hydroactive or silver-impregnated dressings, for surgical wounds after primary wound closure (1).
