摘要：
Surgical site infections (SSI) are the second most frequent healthcare-associated infection (HAI), accounting for approximately 20% of all HAIs in the United States, and an important cause of morbidity and mortality in older adults. With the aging of the population and the expected increase in surgical procedures in the elderly, strategies for prevention and treatment of SSI, will assume increased importance. In this review we describe risk factors for and outcomes associated with SSI, and recommend treatment and prevention strategies for SSI in older adults.
