WOUND INFECTION (كتاب)


Wound infection is invasion of microorganism through tissue after breakdown of local and/ or systemic host defense, with production of local inflammatory reaction. wound infection could be at the time of injury or later on. it depends on host resistance, and virulence of the microorganism, figure 1. Thousands of bacteria live normally on every square centimeter of your skin. If the skin barrier is disrupted as a consequence of trauma, surgery or disease, these bacteria may invade and cause a symptomatic infection. Micro-organisms from the environment (e.g., soil, water) or from a mucosal surface (e.g., following a bite) may also contaminate a skin wound. The incidence of wound infection ranges from 2 to 17.5 per cent after trauma and from 1 to 1.5 per cent after minor dermatological surgical procedures. Infections are inconvenient and painful, and lead to failure or delay in wound healing and poor cosmetic outcomes.
