title: [Infection monitoring in orthopedics].
abstract: The results of infection surveillance in orthopaedics are reported: the high incidence of hospital infections in patients undergoing major surgery, the paucity of microbiological data and the failure to standardise prophylaxis protocols were the most significant findings as well as providing a point of departure for programming future fields of intervention and for redefining the operating framework for continuous infection surveillance.
