title: [An epidemiological analysis of postoperative suppurative pathology in surgical hospitals].
abstract: Approaches to the epidemiological analysis of postoperative wound complications in surgical hospitals are summarized. The indices for the evaluation of the epidemic situation in surgical departments (the ratio of severe and mild forms of complications, severe and posthospital complications) are proposed. To determine the site of infection, the method of graphic analysis, involving the fixation of dates of the operation and the appearance of the complication and taking into account regularities in the development of the outbreak, the depth and severity of the lesion, is proposed. Epidemiological surveillance at medical institutions permits the prognostication of the epidemiological situation. The realization of epidemiological surveillance at the level of individual medical institutions is the prerequisite of effective functioning of the program of epidemiological surveillance at a given territory.
