Background: Because of the poor local medical conditions, and because the surgical site infection (SSI) rate after hernia repair in sub-Saharan Africa is higher than in developed countries, deployed surgeons within Role 2 usually perform non-mesh inguinal herniorrhaphy. Regarding antimicrobial prophylaxis, the latter currently is not recommended in non-mesh inguinal hernia repairs. Our study aimed at assessing the relevance of antibiotic prophylaxis in non-mesh inguinal hernia repair within a Role 2 surgical structure deployed in sub-Saharan Africa.

撒哈拉以南非洲偏远和贫困医疗环境中非网状腹股沟疝修补术中抗生素预防的相关性

背景：由于当地医疗条件差，且由于撒哈拉以南非洲地区疝修补术后手术部位感染（SSI）率高于发达国家，角色 2 内部署的外科医生通常进行非网状腹股沟疝修补术。关于抗菌预防，目前不推荐在非网状腹股沟疝修补术中使用后者。我们的研究旨在评估在撒哈拉以南非洲部署的 Role 2 手术结构中抗生素预防在非网状腹股沟疝修复中的相关性。
