The use of the Body Mass Index in studies of abdominal wound infection.

Abstract

Abdominal wound infection rates were significantly related to obesity, as measured by Body Mass Index, in two large clinical trials of prophylactic antibiotics in at-risk abdominal surgery. Obesity is a risk factor that should be taken into account in any study in which wound infection is an outcome measure.
