Interdisciplinary strategies may effectively reduce surgical site infections.

A scoping review has highlighted the potential of emerging interdisciplinary strategies to significantly lower surgical site infections (SSIs). From an initial 1,679 papers, 45 were analyzed, revealing that these approaches can enhance the efficacy of preventive measures. The findings will inform further qualitative and quantitative research aimed at developing standardized protocols for preoperative preparations, ultimately contributing to better patient outcomes in surgical settings. The review protocol will be registered in 2024.
