Enteral Antibiotics Are Non-inferior to Intravenous Antibiotics after Complicated Appendicitis in Adults: A Retrospective Multicentre Non-inferiority Study
World journal of surgery(2017)
摘要
Prolonging post-operative antibiotic treatment beyond 3 days does not seem to reduce the incidence of post-operative abscess formation or wound infection after surgery for complicated appendicitis. The route of administration seems to be based on an empirical basis. Using enteral antibiotics could reduce length of stay and reduce overall costs. We aimed to examine whether treatment with enteral antibiotics during the first three post-operative days is non-inferior to intravenous antibiotics regarding intra-abdominal abscess formation or wound infection after surgery for complicated appendicitis.
