title: [Surgical site infection in obstetrics and gynecology in Bulgaria for the 2000-2009 period].
abstract: Surgical site infection (SSI) is the most frequent nosocomial infection among surgical patients, accounting for 1/3 of all such infections. The objective of this study was to clarify the incidence and risk factors for developing surgical site infection (SSI) and part of the various microorganisms in the etiological decoding of SSI in Obstetrics and Gynecology in Bulgaria for the 2000-2009 period. Risk assessment for SSI was based solely on wound classification, whether the surgical site was clean, clean contaminated, contaminated, or dirty/infected. Aerobic gram-positive cocci are leading causative pathogens of SSI nosocomial infections, including S. aureus, Enterococcus spp. and coagulase-negative staphylococci (S. epidermidis). Escherichia coli is one of the most frequent causes of many common bacterial infections, including SSI.
