“…2.5 ATA is used not only for wound healing, but also for some otorhinolaryngological diseases ( 13) and other indications. However, for some indications, a different protocol may be considered-for example, lower overpressure for indications related to brain damage (14) or higher for anaerobic infections (15). A conservative approach was chosen, where 2.5 ATA therapy is commonly used in wound healing (16).…”

Background:The goal of our research is to show the effects and impacts of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on acute model wounds in animal subjects.Methods: Three experimental groups were created using injured rabbits (N=36)-randomly divided into three groups (N=12 per group). One group was treated only with standard wound care management. Two groups were additionally treated with HBOT either once or twice a day. The wounds were surgical, uninfected, and in healthy animal test subjects. We compared the immunohistochemical and histological parameters in 4-, 7-and 10-day intervals.Results: The detection of epidermal leaf parameters, the number of microabscesses, the Histopathological Superficial Epithelium Healing Score, Connective Tissue Healing Score, Histopathological Acute Inflammation Score and Total Histopathological Wound Healing Score all showed significant changes between time intervals within the individual groups. Conclusion:The results did not show that HBOT had a significant effect on the healing process of uncomplicated acute wounds.

“…Although the usage of prophylaxis in the postoperative period is controversial, it is beneficial to continue treatments 24 hours postoperatively. 8 , 42 In our study, cephazolin sodium (1 g) was administered intravenously to all patients 30 to 60 minutes prior to surgery, and it was continued postoperatively at a dose of twice a day at 12-hour intervals for 24 hours. Studies have reported that the immunosuppressive effects of perioperative blood transfusions may increase the risk of infection at least 2-fold.…”

Owing to the increasing population of elderly patients, a large number of patients with degenerative spondylosis are currently being surgically treated. Although basic measures for decreasing postoperative surgical infections (PSIs) are considered, it still remains among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. The aim of this retrospective analysis is to present possible causes leading to PSI in patients who underwent surgery for lumbar degenerative spondylosis and highlight how it can be avoided to decrease morbidity and mortality.The study included 540 patients who underwent posterior stabilization due to degenerative lumbar stenosis between January 2013 and January 2014. The data before and after surgery was retrieved from the hospital charts. Patients with degenerative lumbar stenosis who were operated upon in this study had >2 levels of laminectomy and facetectomy. For this reason, posterior stabilization was performed for all the patients included in this study.Determining the causes of postoperative infection (PI) following spinal surgeries performed with instrumentation is a struggle. Seventeen different parameters that may be related to PI were evaluated in this study. The presence of systemic diseases, unknown glove perforations, and perioperative blood transfusions were among the parameters that increased the prevalence of PI. Alternatively, prolene sutures, double-layered gloves, and the use of rifampicin Sv (RIS) decreased the incidence of PI.Although the presence of systemic diseases, unnoticed glove perforations, and perioperative blood transfusions increased PIs, prolene suture material, double-layered gloves, and the use of RIS decreased PIs.
