surgical site infection</h2><div id="ch3.s1.1"><h3>Review question</h3><p>Is the application of intraoperative topical antiseptics/antimicrobials before wound closure clinically effective in reducing surgical site infection rates?</p><p>It became apparent during the development of this update that the question above carried forward from the original guideline should specifically state antiseptics and antibiotics instead of the term &#x02018;antimicrobials&#x02019;. This decision was based on committee input during the development of the review protocol. The committee noted that the term &#x02018;antimicrobials&#x02019; would encompass both antiseptics and antibiotics. The committee also agreed that term &#x02018;operative field&#x02019; would be more appropriate as the application of the interventions included in this review can vary. Hence, the review question answered in this update (and to be carried forward in any future updates) was:
<ul id="ch3.l1"><li id="ch3.lt1" class="half_rhythm"><div>Is the application of antiseptics and antibiotics in the operative field before wound closure clinically effective in reducing surgical site infection rates?</div></li></ul></p><div id="ch3.s1.1.1"><h4>Introduction</h4><p>Surgical site infections (SSIs) are serious postoperative complications. Antiseptics and antibiotics can be applied to the operative field before wound closure to reduce the risk of SSIs.</p><p>The 2008 NICE guideline on the prevention and treatment of surgical site infection recommended against the use of intraoperative skin re-disinfection or topical cefotaxime in abdominal surgery to reduce surgical site infection. This decision was driven by the evidence which demonstrated that the instillation of cefotaxime into wounds prior to closure appears to have no effect on SSI incidence after surgery for peritonitis.</p><p>The topic was reviewed in 2017 by NICE surveillance team and new evidence was identified which examined the use of topical antiseptics and antimicrobials before wound closure for the reduction in SSI, and thus prompted a partial update to review new evidence.</p><p>The review aimed to evaluate the effective application of intraoperative antiseptics and antibiotics to the operative field before wound closure in the prevention of SSI.</p><p>This review identified studies that fulfilled the conditions specified in PICO table.

RCTs and systematic reviews of RCTs were considered for inclusion. The review protocol specified that in the event of less than 5 RCTs being identified, quasi randomised trials would also be considered for inclusion.</p><p>The search strategies used in this review are detailed in <a href="#ch3.appc">appendix C</a>.</p><p>Studies were also excluded if they:

Where possible, data on superficial, deep and organ/space SSI were also examined. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) a SSI is defined as an infection occurring within 30 days after operation. A deep SSI is defined as an infection which occurs within 30 days after the operation if no implant is left in place, or within 1 year if implant is placed. Therefore SSI within 30 days and 1 year were prioritised in this review.</p><p>Studies included in the review explored a number of different follow up periods. Two studies [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref1" rid="ch3.appl.ref1">Andersson 2010</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref5" rid="ch3.appl.ref5">Collin 2013</a>] reported outcomes at various time points. Therefore analysis was stratified by different follow up periods.</p><p>A number of different surgical procedures were explored in the studies included in the review. Where possible subgroup analysis was conducted based on surgical procedure. Furthermore, surgical procedures and wounds can be classified as the following:
<ul id="ch3.l7"><li id="ch3.lt23" class="half_rhythm"><div>Clean&#x02013;incision in which no inflammation is encountered in a surgical procedure, without a break in sterile technique, and during which the respiratory, alimentary and genitourinary tracts are not entered.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt24" class="half_rhythm"><div>Clean-contaminated &#x02013; an incision through which the respiratory, alimentary or genitourinary tract is entered under controlled conditions but with no contamination encountered.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt25" class="half_rhythm"><div>Contaminated &#x02013; an incision undertaken during an operation in which there is a major break in sterile technique or gross spillage from the gastrointestinal tract, or an incision in which acute, non-purulent inflammation is encountered.

The quality of the evidence was started at high. A number of studies demonstrated unclear blinding of participants however these studies were not downgraded in this domain. Studies were mainly downgraded for unclear random sequence generation, allocation concealment and blinding of outcome assessment.</p><p>Studies included in the review classified infections using different criteria including the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) SSI criteria. Studies which did not explicitly describe criteria used for the classification of infection were downgraded for serious indirectness.</p><p>Outcomes at a number of different follow-up periods were reported in the studies included. Studies which did not specify a follow-up period were downgraded for serious indirectness. In such studies the follow-up period was assumed be the postoperative phase.</p><p>See evidence tables in <a href="#ch3.appe">appendix E</a> for quality assessment of individual studies and <a href="#ch3.appg">appendix G</a> for full GRADE tables.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.6"><h4>Economic evidence</h4><div id="ch3.s1.1.6.1"><h5>Included studies</h5><p>A literature search was conducted to identify cost&#x02013;utility analyses comparing strategies for the intraoperative use of antibiotics or antiseptics prior to wound closure. Standard health economic filters were applied to a clinical search, returning a total of 1,344 citations. Following review of all titles and abstracts, 11 studies were identified as being potentially relevant to this decision problem, and were ordered for full review. After reviewing the full texts, 2 studies were included as economic evidence for nasal decontamination. Both evaluated the cost-effectiveness of antibiotic-impregnated bone cement for use in hip surgery.</p><div id="ch3.s1.1.6.1.1"><h5>Graves et al. (2016)</h5><p>Graves et al. (2016) developed a lifetime economic model comparing 9 infection control strategies in total hip replacement (THR) surgery, comprising the use or absence of: systemic antibiotics, antibiotic-impregnated bone cement, and novel ventilation techniques. For the purpose of this review, strategies that are identical except for plain cement compared with antibiotic cement are relevant. Baseline deep infection rates were from a multicentre RCT of operating theatre ventilation (3.4% in 2.5 years). A cohort of 77,321 THR patients progressed through a daily 9-state Markov model, including the risk of a deep SSI (up to 1 year), followed by treatment with debridement, 1 or 2-stage revision, or permanent resection, and death. Time-dependent transition probabilities between states were calculated by linking data from 5 databases: NHS Hospital Episode Statistics, Office for National Statistics, SSI Surveillance Service, National Joint Registry, and NHS England patient-report outcome measures data. Mortality was captured using national UK life tables. Relative effectiveness was identified by a systematic review and mixed treatment comparison with meta-regression, containing 12 studies (6 RCTs) and 123,788 THRs. Probability ratios for deep SSI, compared with the reference treatment of no systematic antibiotics, plain cement and standard ventilation, ranges from 0.22 (best) to 0.61.</p><p>Costs included components of each intervention and of treatments following SSI. Plain cement was &#x000a3;68 per THR, with antibiotic-impregnated cement at &#x000a3;95. Utility values were not based on EQ-5D, and were informed by published evidence as the NHS England data did not capture quality of life specifically following SSI or subsequent treatment. All outcomes were discounted by 3% per year.</p><p>With no systemic antibiotics and conventional ventilation, antibiotic-impregnated cement generated 0.001 additional QALYs and saved &#x000a3;60 per patient. It was 96% likely to be cost-saving from 1,000 probabilistic model runs, and gained QALYs in 62% of runs. With systemic antibiotics, antibiotic cement generated 0.001 additional QALYs and saved &#x000a3;14 per patient. The value of antibiotic-impregnated cement was reduced significantly when both systemic antibiotics and laminar airflow ventilation were used, generating 0.0001 additional QALYs and a higher cost of &#x000a3;26 per patient compared with plain cement. The resulting ICER is in excess of &#x000a3;300,000 per QALY gained.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.6.1.2"><h5>Cummins et al. (2009)</h5><p>Cummins et al. (2009) also evaluated the cost-effectiveness of antibiotic-impregnated bone cement, for use in primary hip arthroplasty in the US. A lifetime Markov model composed of 4 health states was developed, capturing the primary procedure, septic and aseptic revision, and death. Septic and aseptic revision rates were informed by the Norwegian Arthroplasty Registry (1987&#x02013;2004), with a relative risk of septic revision using plain cement of 1.8 (p = 0.01), and 1.3 for aseptic revision (p = 0.02). While this is not randomised evidence, it represents a rich data source (22,170 procedures over 14 years) and included a Cox regression to account for heterogeneity between patients (e.g. use of systemic antibiotic prophylaxis, theatre characteristics, age and sex). Operative mortality was 0.23%, otherwise mortality was informed by national US life tables.</p><p>Direct costs included the primary procedure and acute hospitalisation, antibiotic-impregnated cement (+&#x000a3;422), septic revision (&#x000a3;67,500) and aseptic revision (&#x000a3;24,500), from various published sources. Utility inputs, loosely informed by a study using the SF-36 questionnaire, applied a 10% utility loss for aseptic revision and a 20% loss for a septic revision. All outcomes were discounted by 3% per year.</p><p>When only differences in septic revisions were included, antibiotic cement gained 0.009 QALYs and had an additional cost of &#x000a3;141 per patient, compared with plain cement, producing an ICER around &#x000a3;15,600 per QALY gained. When the observed effect of reducing the risk of aseptic revisions was also captured, antibiotic cement was found to be dominant. Results were found to be relatively sensitive to cost inputs, and to the age of the patient, being more likely to be cost-effective in younger patients who are at risk of revision for longer than older patients due to age-related mortality. However, these were evaluated against US cost-effectiveness benchmark of $50,000 (&#x000a3;35,000), which has limited applicability to the UK setting. Probabilistic analysis was not reported.</p></div></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.6.2"><h5>Excluded studies</h5><p>Studies that were excluded upon full review are listed in <a href="#ch3.appj">Appendix J</a>, including the primary reason for exclusion. Among the excluded studies is a cost&#x02013;utility analysis by some of the authors of the included Graves et al. (2016) study, which used the same model structure and much of the same data but was in the Australian setting (Merollini et al., 2013). Inputs such as baseline infection rates and costs were therefore less applicable to the NHS setting. Its conclusions regarding antibiotic cement versus plain cement, alongside systemic antibiotics, were consistent with Graves et al. (2016). As such, this study was selectively excluded to avoid presenting the same evidence twice, in favour of only including the more applicable and more recent UK study.</p></div></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.7"><h4>Economic model</h4><p>New economic modelling for this topic was not prioritised by the guideline development committee, therefore no model was developed.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.8"><h4>Summary of studies included in the economic evidence review</h4><p>A summary of the 2 studies included as economic evidence is provided below.

Studies included in the review captured outcomes at a number of different follow up periods. Furthermore, 2 studies were identified [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref1" rid="ch3.appl.ref1">Andersson 2010</a> and Collins 201], that reported outcomes at various time points during the study period. Due to this, data was stratified based on different follow up periods. While the committee took into all the outcomes at different follow up periods into consideration, based on the CDC definition of SSI, the committee identified outcomes up to 30 days and 1 year to be important.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.10.1.2"><h5>The quality of the evidence</h5><p>Overall, the committee noted that the studies ranged from moderate to very low quality evidence. Study locations also varied, with 5 studies being identified, which were conducted in the UK. Furthermore, studies also ranged in sample sizes. The largest evidence base was identified for gentamicin collagen implants and sample sizes ranged from 50 participants to 1,950 participants.</p><p>The committee noted that a number of studies included in the review were conducted before the year 2000. Furthermore, the majority of the evidence identified for 2.5% iodine in 70% alcohol [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref6" rid="ch3.appl.ref6">Cordtz 1989</a>] cephaloridine [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref8" rid="ch3.appl.ref8">Evans 1974</a>], povidone iodine [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref27" rid="ch3.appl.ref27">Sherlock 1984</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref11" rid="ch3.appl.ref11">Gray 1981</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref29" rid="ch3.appl.ref29">Walsh 1981</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref21" rid="ch3.appl.ref21">Parker 1985</a>], cefotaxime [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref17" rid="ch3.appl.ref17">Moesgaard 1989</a>] and ampicillin [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref23" rid="ch3.appl.ref23">Rickett 1969</a>] were conducted before the 1990s. The committee discussed that practice is too far removed from the time these studies were conducted. Furthermore, products such as cephaloridine can no longer be found on the market. Therefore, with no new evidence for these interventions, the committee could not make recommendations based on outdated evidence.</p><p>Studies included in the review classified SSIs using different criteria. Ten studies were identified which classified SSIs based on the Centres of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) criteria. A number of studies were identified which based the classification of SSIs on purulent discharge with and without the inclusion of bacteriological confirmation. Nine studies were found which did not define criteria used for the classification on infections. These studies were downgraded for serious indirectness, as it was unclear if these infections were classified in a similar manner to the other included studies.</p><p>During committee discussions, the importance of identifying SSIs up to 30 days after surgery and 1 year after orthopaedic surgery were discussed. In this review, evidence on outcomes at different follow up periods post-surgery was identified. In order to adequately assess the outcomes, data was stratified, based on follow up period. However, 2 studies [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref14" rid="ch3.appl.ref14">Harihara 2006</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref25" rid="ch3.appl.ref25">Rutten 1997</a>] included in the review did not state the period in which the outcomes were followed up. For the purpose of this review, it was assumed that these studies followed up outcomes during the postoperative phase. However, as follow up was unclear, these studies were downgraded for serious indirectness.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.10.1.3"><h5>Benefits and harms</h5><p>It was discussed that SSIs result in poor patient outcomes and increased costs. In terms of the use of gentamicin sponges, 19 studies were identified which explored the use of the sponges in a number of different types of surgery. Evidence demonstrated that the gentamicin implants were effective in cardiac surgery which is considered a high risk surgery. Therefore, it was noted that the use of gentamicin collagen implants may aid in reducing the risk of infection in people undergoing cardiac surgery.</p><p>As part of this review, adverse events such as kidney toxicity and anaphylaxis were examined. No studies were identified which explored these outcomes. It was noted that nephrotoxicity is a side effect with the use of all aminoglycosides. In adults, it occurs more commonly in the elderly and also occurs most commonly in children with renal failure. The committee discussed this potential harm and noted that manufacturers of the gentamicin collagen implants state that the use of the implants is associated with low systemic concentrations of the antibiotic.</p><p>The committee also discussed that studies involving the use of gentamicin collagen implants tend to not include patients with reduced renal function, therefore it is difficult to ascertain side effects associated with the use of the implants in this patient population. However, the committee noted that caution must be taken when considering use of the implants in people with poor renal function. Furthermore, the research recommendation developed also includes organ toxicity as an important outcome of interest.</p><p>Antimicrobial resistance is a major concern with the use of antibiotics and antiseptics. The committee discussed that during surgery, along with receiving skin antiseptics, people may also receive additional peri-operative antimicrobial prophylaxis as part of the standard protocol. This raises the risk of multidrug resistance and it also means that identifying antimicrobial resistance to a single intervention is difficult.</p><p>Based on the evidence, the committee recommended gentamicin collagen implants to be considered in cardiac surgery. However, no evidence was identified that which examined the antimicrobial resistance associated with the use of these implants. Additionally, as the evidence on other antiseptics and antibiotics were poor, the committee made an additional recommendation for the use of antiseptics and antibiotics to only be considered as part of a clinical trial.</p><p>While this recommendation should reduce the misuse of these interventions and in turn reduce the risk of antimicrobial resistance, the committee noted that more evidence is required to examine the risk of antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, the committee made a research recommendation to further examine the effectiveness intraoperative antiseptics and antibiotics, in which antimicrobial resistance is an important outcome.</p></div></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.10.2"><h5>Cost effectiveness and resource use</h5><p>The committee discussed the 2 published cost-effectiveness analyses identified in the economic literature review. Both studies evaluated the use of antibiotic-impregnated bone cement for use during total hip replacement, compared with using plain bone cement. The UK study (Graves et al., 2016) found in favour of antibiotic bone cement, unless there were other infection control measures in place; namely, antibiotic prophylaxis and laminar airflow theatre ventilation. The committee advised that laminar airflow is routinely used in orthopaedic surgery in the NHS, and antibiotic prophylaxis use is not uncommon, such that it is unclear whether the Graves et al. study provides evidence that antibiotic-impregnated bone cement is cost effective. Further, the committee advised that it is routine practice to avoid using bone cement in primary joint replacement surgery, if possible; therefore, even the UK study might have limited applicability to the NHS setting. The committee also agreed that the clinical evidence underpinning both models is of insufficient quality to support recommendations regarding antibiotic-impregnated bone cement. The Graves et al. study was based on a network meta-analysis of 12 studies, of which 6 were RCTs; however, none of the RCTs compared antibiotic-impregnated bone cement with plain bone cement. This comparison was therefore informed by direct observational studies and indirect evidence from the wider network, which the committee agreed was weak evidence to inform an economic evaluation. The second study (Cummins et al., 2009) was agreed to be less applicable to NHS practice, being a US analysis based on long-term Norwegian registry data. Although an attempt had been made to account for potential confounding factors in the clinical evidence, the committee agreed that this is weak evidence to inform an economic evaluation.</p><p>The committee discussed the use of gentamicin-collagen sponges in cardiac surgery. It agreed that the most compelling evidence for the effectiveness of gentamicin-collagen sponges is in cardiac surgery, and noted that the original CG74 committee also made this comment. However, no cost-effectiveness evidence regarding their use was identified. The committee advised that the cost of gentamicin-collagen sponges varies by hospital, ranging from around &#x000a3;20 to &#x000a3;90 per sponge. The committee estimated that around 25,000 cardiac surgery procedures occur annually in the NHS; therefore, the use of gentamicin-collagen sponges in all cardiac surgery would have resource implications. If the typical cost per sponge is &#x000a3;55 &#x02013; the midpoint of the committee&#x02019;s range &#x02013; this would imply a resource impact of &#x000a3;1,375,000; however, the committee advised that these sponges are often used in NHS cardiac surgery already, as they are perceived to reflect best practice. If they are already in use the resource impact of full adoption would be lower that the above figure; for example, &#x000a3;962,500 if they are currently used in 30% of cardiac surgery procedures. This resource impact estimate does not capture cost savings associated with a reduction in the incidence of SSI that would occur as a result of using gentamicin-collagen sponges. A UK hospital SSI surveillance study (Jenks et al., 2014) estimated a mean SSI cost of &#x000a3;11,003 in cardiac surgery patients, higher than SSIs in most other surgical categories. Avoiding 91 SSIs across 25,000 annual cardiac surgical procedures would therefore save &#x000a3;1 million in SSI treatment costs. Based on the economic model developed for this guideline evaluating nasal decontamination of <i>S. aureus,</i> the committee was aware that infection control tends to be cost-effective, particularly when the cost impact of a SSI is high, like in the case of cardiac surgery. The committee was therefore satisfied that a recommendation to consider the use of gentamicin-collagen sponges in cardiac surgery, where its clinical evidence is the most supportive, is likely to be a cost-effective used of NHS resources.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.10.3"><h5>Other factors the committee took into account</h5><p>The number of studies identified for each intervention varied. While single studies were found which explored the clinical effectiveness of antibiotic loaded bone cement, 2.5% iodine in 70% alcohol, cefotaxime, cephaloridine, ampicillin and vancomycin, 5 studies explored the effectiveness of povidone iodine and 19 studies investigated the effectiveness of gentamicin collagen implants. These studies also explored a number of different surgical procedures.</p><p>Studies which examined the effectiveness of povidone iodine mainly involved people undergoing abdominal procedures such as gastric surgery and colorectal surgery. While topical povidone iodine did demonstrate a significant reduction in SSI at 2 weeks in people undergoing abdominal surgery, no significant results were identified in people undergoing various other clean, contaminated or dirty abdominal procedures.</p><p>Studies examining the effectiveness of gentamicin collagen implants included people undergoing cardiac, colorectal and hidradenitis suppurativa surgery as well as arthroplasty, pilonidal sinus excision, prosthetic repair of groin hernias, abdominoperineal resection, mastectomy and closure of loop-ileostomy. Gentamicin collagen implants demonstrated a significant reduction in SSIs at 1 week after surgery in people undergoing hidradenitis suppurativa surgery as well as a reduction in SSIs at 1 month and 2 months after surgery in people undergoing cardiac surgery.</p><p>Conflicting data was identified on the clinical effectiveness of the implants in people undergoing colorectal surgery. Two studies [Nowacki 2006 and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref22" rid="ch3.appl.ref22">Pochhammer 2015</a>] were identified which demonstrated a non-significant reduction in SSIs, as well as superficial SSIs, in people undergoing colorectal surgery. One partially applicable study [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref25" rid="ch3.appl.ref25">Rutten 1997</a>] further demonstrated a significant reduction in SSIs. However, one study [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appl.ref2" rid="ch3.appl.ref2">Bennett-Gurerro 2010a</a>] demonstrated a significant risk of SSI at 2 months associated with the use of gentamicin implants in people undergoing colorectal surgery.</p><p>The authors of the paper did hypothesis that the presence of sponge mass may have created a mechanical barrier to early wound healing that promoted infection, however such significant results were not replicated in any other study identified. Furthermore, the study which demonstrated a significant reduction had a small sample size and did not state the follow-up period. Due to the lack of conclusive evidence on the use of gentamicin collagen implants in colorectal surgery, no recommendations were made for this surgery type.</p><p>The committee noted that the application of antiseptics and antibiotics vary. While gentamicin collagen sponges are implanted into the wound cavity for the purpose of wound disinfection, topical antiseptics are generally used for skin re-disinfection. Antibiotics can also be applied topically, but usually in the form of powders, as reflected in the evidence identified. The committee wanted to make a clear distinction between wound disinfection and peri-wound skin re-disinfection. With regards to wound disinfection, evidence was mainly identified for the use of gentamicin collagen implants. Based on the evidence identified the committee recommended for the gentamicin collagen implants to be considered in cardiac surgery.</p><p>No new evidence was identified which demonstrated the clinical effectiveness of skin re-disinfection using antiseptics before would closure in reducing the incidence of SSI. Due to the lack of evidence, the committee discussed the need for further research. Therefore, no recommendations were made for the use of antiseptic in practice, but a research recommendation was made to promote further research.</p><p>Questions were also raised on the availability of interventions. Evidence was identified which suggested that cephaloridine demonstrated a significant reduction in SSIs in people undergoing contaminated surgical procedures. However, the committee noted that while this intervention is effective, this product is no longer available on the market.</p><p>Additionally, it was noted that studies included in the review did not provide evidence on children. Due to the lack of evidence in this population, specific recommendations for children could not be made. Caution must be taken when considering use in children with renal failure.</p></div></div></div></div><div id="appendixesappgroup3"><h2 id="_appendixesappgroup3_">Appendices</h2><div id="ch3.appa"><h3>Appendix A.

Methods</h3><div id="ch3.appb.s1"><h4>Priority screening</h4><p>The reviews undertaken for this guideline all made use of the priority screening functionality with the EPPI-reviewer systematic reviewing software. This uses a machine learning algorithm (specifically, an SGD classifier) to take information on features (1, 2 and 3 word blocks) in the titles and abstract of papers marked as being &#x02018;includes&#x02019; or &#x02018;excludes&#x02019; during the title and abstract screening process, and re-orders the remaining records from most likely to least likely to be an include, based on that algorithm. This re-ordering of the remaining records occurs every time 25 additional records have been screened.</p><p>As an additional check to ensure this approach did not miss relevant studies, the included studies lists of included systematic reviews were searched to identify any papers not identified through the primary search.</p><div id="ch3.appb.s1.1"><h5>Quality assessment</h5><p>Individual systematic reviews were quality assessed using the ROBIS tool, with each classified into one of the following three groups:
<ul id="ch3.l182"><li id="ch3.lt473" class="half_rhythm"><div>High quality &#x02013; It is unlikely that additional relevant and important data would be identified from primary studies compared to that reported in the review, and unlikely that any relevant and important studies have been missed by the review.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt474" class="half_rhythm"><div>Moderate quality &#x02013; It is possible that additional relevant and important data would be identified from primary studies compared to that reported in the review, but unlikely that any relevant and important studies have been missed by the review.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt475" class="half_rhythm"><div>Low quality &#x02013; It is possible that relevant and important studies have been missed by the review.</div></li></ul></p><p>Each individual systematic review was also classified into one of three groups for its applicability as a source of data, based on how closely the review matches the specified review protocol in the guideline. Studies were rated as follows:
<ul id="ch3.l183"><li id="ch3.lt476" class="half_rhythm"><div>Fully applicable &#x02013; The identified review fully covers the review protocol in the guideline.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt477" class="half_rhythm"><div>Partially applicable &#x02013; The identified review fully covers a discrete subsection of the review protocol in the guideline.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt478" class="half_rhythm"><div>Not applicable &#x02013; The identified review, despite including studies relevant to the review question, does not fully cover any discrete subsection of the review protocol in the guideline.</div></li></ul></p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s1.2"><h5>Using systematic reviews as a source of data</h5><p>If systematic reviews were identified as being sufficiently applicable and high quality, and were identified sufficiently early in the review process (for example, from the surveillance review or early in the database search), they were used as the primary source of data, rather than extracting information from primary studies. The extent to which this was done depended on the quality and applicability of the review, as defined in Table . When systematic reviews were used as a source of primary data, any unpublished or additional data included in the review which is not in the primary studies was also included. Data from these systematic reviews was then quality assessed and presented in GRADE tables as described below, in the same way as if data had been extracted from primary studies. In questions where data was extracted from both systematic reviews and primary studies, these were cross-referenced to ensure none of the data had been double counted through this process.</p><p id="ch3.appb.tab1"><a href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appb.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab1" class="figpopup">Table 3. Criteria for using systematic reviews as a source of data</a></p></div></div><div id="ch3.appb.s2"><h4>Evidence of effectiveness of interventions</h4><div id="ch3.appb.s2.1"><h5>Quality assessment</h5><p>Individual RCTs were quality assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Other study were quality assessed using the ROBINS-I tool. Each individual study was classified into one of the following three groups:
<ul id="ch3.l184"><li id="ch3.lt479" class="half_rhythm"><div>Low risk of bias &#x02013; The true effect size for the study is likely to be close to the estimated effect size.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt480" class="half_rhythm"><div>Moderate risk of bias &#x02013; There is a possibility the true effect size for the study is substantially different to the estimated effect size.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt481" class="half_rhythm"><div>High risk of bias &#x02013; It is likely the true effect size for the study is substantially different to the estimated effect size.</div></li></ul></p><p>Each individual study was also classified into one of three groups for directness, based on if there were concerns about the population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes in the study and how directly these variables could address the specified review question. Studies were rated as follows:
<ul id="ch3.l185"><li id="ch3.lt482" class="half_rhythm"><div>Direct &#x02013; No important deviations from the protocol in population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt483" class="half_rhythm"><div>Partially indirect &#x02013; Important deviations from the protocol in one of the population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt484" class="half_rhythm"><div>Indirect &#x02013; Important deviations from the protocol in at least two of the following areas: population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li></ul></p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s2.2"><h5>Methods for combining intervention evidence</h5><p>Meta-analyses of interventional data were conducted with reference to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions (Higgins et al. 2011).</p><p>Where different studies presented continuous data measuring the same outcome but using different numerical scales (e.g. a 0&#x02013;10 and a 0&#x02013;100 visual analogue scale), these outcomes were all converted to the same scale before meta-analysis was conducted on the mean differences. Where outcomes measured the same underlying construct but used different instruments/metrics, data were analysed using standardised mean differences (Hedges&#x02019; g).</p><p>A pooled relative risk was calculated for dichotomous outcomes (using the Mantel&#x02013;Haenszel method). Both relative and absolute risks were presented, with absolute risks calculated by applying the relative risk to the pooled risk in the comparator arm of the meta-analysis.</p><p>Fixed- and random-effects models (der Simonian and Laird) where appropriate, with the presented analysis dependent on the degree of heterogeneity in the assembled evidence. Fixed-effects models were the preferred choice to report, but in situations where the assumption of a shared mean for fixed-effects model were clearly not met, even after appropriate pre-specified subgroup analyses were conducted, random-effects results are presented. Fixed-effects models were deemed to be inappropriate if one or both of the following conditions was met:
<ul id="ch3.l186"><li id="ch3.lt485" class="half_rhythm"><div>Significant between study heterogeneity in methodology, population, intervention or comparator was identified by the reviewer in advance of data analysis. This decision was made and recorded before any data analysis was undertaken.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt486" class="half_rhythm"><div>The presence of significant statistical heterogeneity in the meta-analysis, defined as I<sup>2</sup>&#x02265;50%.</div></li></ul></p><p>In any meta-analyses where some (but not all) of the data came from studies at high risk of bias, a sensitivity analysis was conducted, excluding those studies from the analysis. Results from both the full and restricted meta-analyses are reported. Similarly, in any meta-analyses where some (but not all) of the data came from indirect studies, a sensitivity analysis was conducted, excluding those studies from the analysis.</p><p>Meta-analyses were performed in Cochrane Review Manager v5.3.</p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s2.3"><h5>Minimal clinically important differences (MIDs)</h5><p>The Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials (COMET) database was searched to identify published minimal clinically important difference thresholds relevant to this guideline. Identified MIDs were assessed to ensure they had been developed and validated in a methodologically rigorous way, and were applicable to the populations, interventions and outcomes specified in this guideline. In addition, the Guideline Committee were asked to prospectively specify any outcomes where they felt a consensus MID could be defined from their experience. In particular, any questions looking to evaluate non-inferiority (that one treatment is not meaningfully worse than another) required an MID to be defined to act as a non-inferiority margin.</p><p>No MIDs were identified. Therefore, a default MID interval for dichotomous outcomes of 0.8 to 1.25 was used.</p><p>When decisions were made in situations where MIDs were not available, the &#x02018;Evidence to Recommendations&#x02019; section of that review should make explicit the committee&#x02019;s view of the expected clinical importance and relevance of the findings. In particular, this includes consideration of whether the whole effect of a treatment (which may be felt across multiple independent outcome domains) would be likely to be clinically meaningful, rather than simply whether each individual sub outcome might be meaningful in isolation.</p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s2.4"><h5>GRADE for pairwise meta-analyses of interventional evidence</h5><p>GRADE was used to assess the quality of evidence for the selected outcomes as specified in &#x02018;Developing NICE guidelines: the manual (2014)&#x02019;. Data from all study designs was initially rated as high quality and the quality of the evidence for each outcome was downgraded or not from this initial point, based on the criteria given in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appb.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appbtab2" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab2">Table 4</a>.</p><p id="ch3.appb.tab2"><a href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appb.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab2" class="figpopup">Table 4. Rationale for downgrading quality of evidence for intervention studies</a></p><p>The quality of evidence for each outcome was upgraded if any of the following three conditions were met:
<ul id="ch3.l187"><li id="ch3.lt487" class="half_rhythm"><div>Data from non-randomised studies showing an effect size sufficiently large that it cannot be explained by confounding alone.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt488" class="half_rhythm"><div>Data showing a dose-response gradient.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt489" class="half_rhythm"><div>Data where all plausible residual confounding is likely to increase our confidence in the effect estimate.</div></li></ul></p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s2.5"><h5>Publication bias</h5><p>Publication bias was assessed in two ways. First, if evidence of conducted but unpublished studies was identified during the review (e.g. conference abstracts, trial protocols or trial records without accompanying published data), available information on these unpublished studies was reported as part of the review. Secondly, where 10 or more studies were included as part of a single meta-analysis, a funnel plot was produced to graphically assess the potential for publication bias.</p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s2.6"><h5>Evidence statements</h5><p>Evidence statements for pairwise intervention data are classified in to one of four categories:
<ul id="ch3.l188"><li id="ch3.lt490" class="half_rhythm"><div>Situations where the data are only consistent, at a 95% confidence level, with an effect in one direction (i.e. one that is &#x02018;statistically significant&#x02019;), and the magnitude of that effect is most likely to meet or exceed the MID (i.e. the point estimate is not in the zone of equivalence). In such cases, we state that the evidence showed that there is an effect.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt491" class="half_rhythm"><div>Situations where the data are only consistent, at a 95% confidence level, with an effect in one direction (i.e. one that is &#x02018;statistically significant&#x02019;), but the magnitude of that effect is most likely to be less than the MID (i.e. the point estimate is in the zone of equivalence). In such cases, we state that the evidence could not demonstrate a meaningful difference.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt492" class="half_rhythm"><div>Situations where the data are consistent, at a 95% confidence level, with an effect in either direction (i.e. one that is not &#x02018;statistically significant&#x02019;) but the confidence limits are smaller than the MIDs in both directions. In such cases, we state that the evidence demonstrates that there is no difference.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt493" class="half_rhythm"><div>In all other cases, we state that the evidence could not differentiate between the comparators.</div></li></ul></p><p>For outcomes without a defined MID or where the MID is set as the line of no effect, evidence statements are divided into 2 groups as follows:
<ul id="ch3.l189"><li id="ch3.lt494" class="half_rhythm"><div>We state that the evidence showed that there is an effect if the 95% CI does not cross the line of no effect.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt495" class="half_rhythm"><div>The evidence could not differentiate between comparators if the 95% CI crosses the line of no effect.</div></li></ul></p></div></div><div id="ch3.appb.s3"><h4>Health economics</h4><p>Literature reviews seeking to identify published cost&#x02013;utility analyses of relevance to the issues under consideration were conducted for all questions. In each case, the search undertaken for the clinical review was modified, retaining population and intervention descriptors, but removing any study-design filter and adding a filter designed to identify relevant health economic analyses. In assessing studies for inclusion, population, intervention and comparator, criteria were always identical to those used in the parallel clinical search; only cost&#x02013;utility analyses were included. Economic evidence profiles, including critical appraisal according to the Guidelines manual, were completed for included studies.</p><p>Economic studies identified through a systematic search of the literature are appraised using a methodology checklist designed for economic evaluations (NICE guidelines manual; 2014). This checklist is not intended to judge the quality of a study per se, but to determine whether an existing economic evaluation is useful to inform the decision-making of the committee for a specific topic within the guideline.</p><p>There are 2 parts of the appraisal process. The first step is to assess applicability (that is, the relevance of the study to the specific guideline topic and the NICE reference case); evaluations are categorised according to the criteria in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appb.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appbtab3" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab3">Table 1</a>.</p><p id="ch3.appb.tab3"><a href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appb.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab3" class="figpopup">Table 1.

Research recommendations</h3><div id="ch3.appk.s1"><h4>1. Is the application of antiseptics and antibiotics in the operative field before wound closure, clinically and cost effective in reducing surgical site infection rates?</h4><p>30 RCTs were identified in this review which examined the clinical effectiveness of different topical antiseptics and antibiotics. This evidence ranged from moderate to very low quality and examined a number of different interventions including antibiotic loaded bone cement. Old and out-dated evidence suggested that interventions such as ampicillin, cephaloridine (which is no longer available on the market) and topical povidone iodine reduced the incidence of SSI. More recent data mainly suggests that gentamicin collagen implant are effective in reducing SSI in cardiac surgery and hidradenitis supperativa surgery.</p><p>As new interventions are being introduced into practice, further research is required, using a robust study design, to further explore the role of antibiotics and antiseptics in the reduction of SSI when applied intraoperatively. These studies should be adequately powered and should also further explore interventions such as antibiotic impregnated implants and antibiotic loaded bone cement. Further research should be based in the UK and take into account different surgical procedures. Research in this area is essential to inform future updates of key recommendations in this guidance which in turn can help improve patient outcomes.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figch3appktab1"><a href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appk.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figch3appktab1" rid-ob="figobch3appktab1"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appk.tab1/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appk.tab1/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="ch3.appk.tab1"><a href="/books/NBK569836/table/ch3.appk.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab1">Table</a></h4><p class="float-caption no_bottom_margin"><i>Population</i>: People of any age undergoing any surgery, including minimally invasive surgery (arthroscopic, thoracoscopic and laparoscopic surgery)</p></div></div></div></div><div id="ch3.appl"><h3>Appendix L.
