Study on the Preventive Effect of Establishing an Integrated Working Group of Doctors and Nurses in Operating Room

Overview

To explore the preventive effect and clinical enlightenment of establishing an integrated working group of doctors and nurses in operating room on incision infection in orthopedic surgery.

Surgery is the most used treatment in orthopedics. During orthopedic surgery, the integrity of the skin barrier is compromised, resulting in direct exposure of sterile tissue to the external environment and the potential impact of surgical instruments on local tissue. Additionally, orthopedic surgery procedures often entail prolonged duration, extensive surgical areas, and significant blood loss, all of which contribute to an elevated risk of surgical site infections. However, there are some limitations in the practical application of the conventional nursing model in the operating room. Against this backdrop, numerous new nursing models have emerged to meet contemporary demands. Among them, the integration of medical and nursing staff (MANS) in the operating room has garnered significant attention. Presently, this integrated model is predominantly employed in critical care settings and for postoperative infection prevention. However, the establishment and effectiveness of an integrated working group comprising both MANS in the operating room remains in its nascent stage of exploration, warranting further investigation into its clinical impact and implications.
