Post-discharge surgical site infection surveillance in a hospital in Brazil.

Adriana C Oliveira1, Elenice D R P Lima, Alexandre de Paula Lima.   

Abstract

The current study suggests the need for routine post-discharge surveillance to improve reliability on surgical site infection incidence rates. Surveillance only during hospitalization may not provide precise data on the incidence of surgical site infection, underestimating a true postoperative infection rate.
