Risk factors for surgical site infections and trends in skin closure technique after diverting loop ileostomy reversal: A multi-institutional analysis - 17/10/23
Abstract |
Background |
Surgical site infections (SSIs) are one of the most common complications following diverting loop ileostomy (DLI) closures. This study assesses SSIs after DLI closure and the temporal trends in skin closure technique.
Methods |
A retrospective review was conducted using the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database for adult patients who underwent a DLI closure between 2012 and 2021 across a multistate health system. Skin closure technique was categorized as primary, primary + drain, or purse-string closure. The primary outcome was SSI at the former DLI site.
Results |
A SSI was diagnosed in 5.7% of patients; 6.9% for primary closure, 5.7% for primary closure + drain, and 2.7% for purse-string closure (p = 0.25). A diagnosis of Crohn's disease, diverticular disease, and increasing operative time were significant risk factors for SSIs. There was a positive trend in the use of purse-string closure over time (p < 0.0001).
Conclusions |
This study identified a low SSI rate after DLI closure which did not vary significantly based on skin closure technique. Utilization of purse-string closure increased over time.
