“…As Infecções de Sítio Cirúrgico (ISC), são complicações oriundas do ato operatório, caracterizada como Infecção Relacionada à Assistência à Saúde (IRAS). Em países desenvolvidos, em média 3 a 16% dos procedimentos cirúrgicos realizados infeccionam e as taxas de óbitos por essa causa podem chegar de 5 a 10%; especificamente nos Estados Unidos, a ISC é considerada a IRAS mais comum e resulta em consequências graves ao paciente e à instituição de saúde (Guatura & Poveda, 2021). No Brasil, é classificada como a terceira IRAS mais incidente nas instituições hospitalares, com índices que variam de 14 a 16%; importante destacar, que esse número pode ser bem maior, considerando as subnotificações existentes.…”

Considerando que as internações hospitalares são cada vez mais curtas, a literatura aponta que os índices de ISC identificadas no pós-alta podem variar de 19 a 84%, sendo, portanto, recomendada a Vigilância Pós-Alta (VPA) (Guatura & Poveda, 2021;Martins et al, 2019).…”
