Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate compliance with guidelines in surgical prophylaxis (SP) procedures in Turkey. Materials and Methods:A point prevalence study involving 4 university, 5 education and research and 7 public hospitals was performed assessing compliance with guidelines for antibiotic use in SP. Compliance was based on the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for Antimicrobial Surgery (CPGAS) 2013" guideline.Results: Sixteen centers were included in the study, with 166 operations performed at these being evaluated. Parenteral antibiotic for SP was applied in 161 (96.9%) of these. Type of antibiotic was inappropriate in 66 (40.9%) cases and duration of use in 47 (29.1%). The main antibiotics used inappropriately in SP were ceftriaxone, glycopeptides and aminoglycosides. No significant difference was observed between secondary and tertiary hospitals in terms of inappropriate selection. Duration of prophylaxis was also incompatible with guideline recommendations in approximately half of surgical procedures performed in both secondary and tertiary hospitals, however statistical significance was observed between institutions in favor of tertiary hospitals. ÖzAmaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, ülkemizdeki cerrahi proflaksi uygulamalarının rehberlere uygunluğunun değerlendirilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem:Bu amaçla, 4 üniversite, 5 eğitim-araştırma ve 7 devlet hastanesini içine alan bir nokta prevalans çalışması yapılmıştır. Cerrahi proflaksideki uygunluğunun değerlendiril-mesinde "Clinical Practice Guidelines for Antimicrobial Surgery (CPGAS) 2013" rehberi baz alınmıştır. Bulgular:Toplam 16 merkez çalışmaya katılmış olup, bu merkezlerdeki 166 operasyon değerlendirilmiştir. Bunların 161'inde (%96,9) cerrahi proflaksi amacıyla parenteral antibiyotik uygulanmıştır. Olguların 66'sında (%40,9) kullanılan antibiyotiğin türü, 47'sinde (%29,1) ise süresi uygunsuz bulunmuştur. Cerrahi proflakside uygunsuz kullanılan antibiyotikler olarak en çok; seftriakson, glikopeptidler ve aminoglikozitler dikkati çekmektedir. İkinci ve 3.basamak sağlık kuruluşları arasında antibiyotik seçimindeki uygunsuzluk açısından anlamlı bir fark görülmemiştir. Cerrahi uygulamaların yaklaşık yarısında proflaktik antibiyotiklerin süresi rehber önerileriyle uyumlu bulunmamış olmakla birlikte; istatistiksel olarak 3.basamak hastanelerinin lehine bir durum olduğu görülmüştür.
