Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the quality of relevant practice guidelines for the prevention of surgical site infections in adult inpatients and provide a reference for formulating protocols to prevent surgical site infections in adults.Methods:Practice guidelines related to the prevention of surgical site infections in adults published up to June 2, 2020 were retrieved from domestic and foreign databases, guideline websites and the websites of professional societies. The Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE Ⅱ) was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included guidelines, and the intra-group correlation coefficient was used to test the consistency between the reviewers.Results:A total of 6 clinical practice guidelines were included, and in terms of the quality, there were 4 grade A guidelines and 2 grade B guidelines. The average standardized scores of AGREE Ⅱ in 6 dimensions were: 87.04% for scope and purpose, 76.62% for stakeholder involvement, 76.56% for rigor of development, 89.58% for clarity of presentations, 81.60% for applicability, and 81.25% for independence.Conclusions:The existing clinical practice guidelines related to the prevention of surgical site infections in adults are relatively comprehensive with a relatively good quality. Nursing staff need to consider the applicability of evidence application, formulate practical infection prevention strategies, and reduce the incidence of surgical site infections in adults.
