Identify the topic and the nursing practice issue related to this topic. (This MUST involve a
nursing practice issue.)
Surgical infections are one of the critical issues in healthcare facilities. The infection has various
adverse effects that include the infection of new illnesses, the deterioration of the existing illness

healthcare facilities to establish the possible intervention measures.

Surgical infections have led to the reduction in patient safety thereby making hospitals inefficient

in discharging their role of providing efficient and effective patient care. The problem, which is
unavoidable on the patient’s side, has led to the development of various complications after
surgery as well as death of millions of patients across the world. It is therefore imperative to
o

define the problem and its causes, which would help develop possible intervention measures to
aC s

reduce or eliminate incidences of surgical infections.

Outline one or two evidence-based solutions you will consider for the trial project.
ar stu




The use of Chlorhexidine as part of the pre-operative procedure is critical in reducing and
preventing surgical errors. Chlorhexidine helps reduce incidences of breakdown and irritation,
which puts patients at a higher risk of infection. The use of Chlorhexidine requires prior
is




examination to establish whether there is change in strength or regimen specifically among
patients with sensitive skin.
Th




Another solution is the avoidance of hair removal at surgical sites. Hair removal increases the
chances of having cuts and irritations that exposes patients to infections. The alternative to hair
sh




removal is the use of clippers if possible.
