The bacteriostatic field in urology.
Infections related to wound drain sites, cystoscopy, transurethral resection, open prostatectomy, and urinary catheter drainage systems are preventable by the appropriate application of bacteriostatic fields which seal off these systems from environmental bacteria incorporating bacteriostatic and bacteriocidal compounds. A high level of sterility is achieved without the routine use of antibiotics.
