Slide 7 :

Discussion Unnecessary surgical antibiotic prophylaxis is higher in our study when compared with other studies. Proper duration rate is vey low in the study. Although cefazolin is recommended in surgical antibiotic prophylaxis, it is the second prefered antibiotic during the study period.

Slide 8 :

Conclusion Antimicrobial prophylaxis in surgery is not adequate in our hospital. This situation could be improved by using standardized prophylactic antibiotic administration rules. More education on the subject is a necessity.
