Résumé

Case control series. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of methods to decrease surgical site infections (SSIs) following spine tumor surgery. With the aging population of the United States, the prevalence of cancer and associated metastatic spine disease is increasing. The most common complication of spine tumor surgery is SSI. This a single-institution case-control series of patients undergoing spine tumor surgery from June 2003 to October 2018. Patients were grouped into the following groups: Betadine irrigation and intrawound vancomycin powder (BIVP), intrawound vancomycin powder only (IVP), and patients receiving neither (NONE). The primary outcome was SSIs/wound complications. One hundred fifty-one spine tumor patients undergoing 174 procedures meeting our inclusion criteria were identified. The BIVP group had 60 patients (73 procedures); the IVP group had 46 patients (47 procedures); and the NONE group had 45 patients (54 procedures). The overall infection rate was 8.6% of all procedures (15/174) and 9.9% (15/151) of all patients. Bivariate analysis comparing patients with and without infections noted the patients with SSIs had significantly higher rates of preoperative radiation treatment (53.3% in infection group vs. 25.5% in noninfection group), P = 0.02. Patients undergoing procedures in the BIVP group had a significantly lower rate of infections (2.7%) than the patients in the IVP (12.8%) and NONE (13%) groups, P = 0.04. Stepwise regression analysis was used to evaluate further factors associated with SSIs. Elevated BMI was significantly associated with SSIs in the model [P = 0.02, odds ratio (OR) 1.14]. BIVP was also protective against infections as compared to the IVP and NONE groups, P = 0.02, OR 0.02. BIVP led to a significant decrease in SSI rates following spine tumor surgery. Administration of BIVP is not time consuming and decreased SSI rates. 3.

STUDY DESIGN METHODS
Case control series.
OBJECTIVE OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of methods to decrease surgical site infections (SSIs) following spine tumor surgery.
SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA BACKGROUND
With the aging population of the United States, the prevalence of cancer and associated metastatic spine disease is increasing. The most common complication of spine tumor surgery is SSI.
METHODS METHODS
This a single-institution case-control series of patients undergoing spine tumor surgery from June 2003 to October 2018. Patients were grouped into the following groups: Betadine irrigation and intrawound vancomycin powder (BIVP), intrawound vancomycin powder only (IVP), and patients receiving neither (NONE). The primary outcome was SSIs/wound complications.
RESULTS RESULTS
One hundred fifty-one spine tumor patients undergoing 174 procedures meeting our inclusion criteria were identified. The BIVP group had 60 patients (73 procedures); the IVP group had 46 patients (47 procedures); and the NONE group had 45 patients (54 procedures). The overall infection rate was 8.6% of all procedures (15/174) and 9.9% (15/151) of all patients. Bivariate analysis comparing patients with and without infections noted the patients with SSIs had significantly higher rates of preoperative radiation treatment (53.3% in infection group vs. 25.5% in noninfection group), P = 0.02. Patients undergoing procedures in the BIVP group had a significantly lower rate of infections (2.7%) than the patients in the IVP (12.8%) and NONE (13%) groups, P = 0.04. Stepwise regression analysis was used to evaluate further factors associated with SSIs. Elevated BMI was significantly associated with SSIs in the model [P = 0.02, odds ratio (OR) 1.14]. BIVP was also protective against infections as compared to the IVP and NONE groups, P = 0.02, OR 0.02.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
BIVP led to a significant decrease in SSI rates following spine tumor surgery. Administration of BIVP is not time consuming and decreased SSI rates.
