Risk factors for surgical site infection and urinary tract infection after spine surgery

Purpose This study aimed to identify and compare risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) and non-surgical site infections (non-SSIs), particularly urinary tract infection (UTI), after spine surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 825 patients (median age 59.0 years (range 33–70 years); 4...

Description
Summary:Purpose This study aimed to identify and compare risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) and non-surgical site infections (non-SSIs), particularly urinary tract infection (UTI), after spine surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 825 patients (median age 59.0 years (range 33–70 years); 442 males) who underwent spine surgery at Kagoshima University Hospital from January 2009 to December 2014. Patient parameters were compared using the Mann–Whitney U and Fisher’s exact tests. Risk factors associated with SSI and UTI were analyzed via the multiple logistic regression analysis. P
