[Preventive therapy in stomatological and maxillofacial surgery. Clinical considerations on the administration of cephaloridine, using a new technic (short-term prophylaxis)].
The "Short term prophylaxis" technique was used in 100 patients who had undergone Stomatologic surgery and Maxillo-facial surgery for post-operative prophylaxis of surgical infections according to analogous researches conducted in other surgical branches by various authors. The results obtained can be summarized as following: 1) a marked reduction in administered antibiotics (cefaloridina); 2) a marked reduction of post-operative fever; 3) a maintainment of average febrile levels at 37,8 degrees-38 degrees. The above tecnique thus allowed a more rapid mobilization of patients who had undergone surgical intervention, a reduction of the recovery period and the therapeutic costs.
