Zusammenfassung
Postoperative Weichteilinfektionen sind gegenwärtig ein noch immer zu beachtendes
Problem und können nach jedem chirurgischen Eingriff auftreten. Individuelle und allgemeine
Risikofaktoren wie Begleiterkrankungen, Operationsdauer, chirurgische Technik, Rasur,
Parallelinfektion und Drainagen beeinflussen die Inzidenz von postoperativen Infektionsraten.
Das Management postoperativer Weichteilinfektionen umfasst ein reichhaltiges Repertoire
an möglichen Einzelmaßnahmen, in deren Mittelpunkt die zeitgerechte und umfassende
chirurgische Intervention steht. Dazu gehören die tägliche Wundkontrolle und die frühzeitige
stadiengerechte Behandlung einschließlich Wunderöffnung, Debridement und Verbandsmanagement
entsprechend der individuellen Weichteilinfektion. Hauptaugenmerk der Behandlung muss
es sein, durch entsprechende Maßnahmen, Sekundärschäden insbesondere die Sepsis zu
vermeiden. Neben der lokalen Therapie ist auf eine zeitnahe Dokumentation zu achten.
Abstract
Postoperative wound infections are common problem of surgical therapy and can occur
after surgical approaches. Inzidence of postoperative wound infections is influenced
by individual and general risk factors like other simultaneous diseases and infections,
operation time, surgical technique, preoperative shaving and drainage. Management
of postoperative soft tissue infections comprises daily wound control, early stage
adapted therapy including wound opening, debridement and wounddressing according wound
infection individually. Aim of the therapy is prevention from severe sepsis and organ
failure because of postoperative wound infection. Behind local therapy contemporary
wound documentation is required.
