Orthopedic surgical site infections (SSI) are infections that occur in the area where orthopedic surgery was performed. These infections can involve the skin, underlying tissues, and sometimes even the implanted hardware (such as plates, screws, or prosthetics) used during the surgery.
Obstetric surgical site infections (SSIs) are infections that occur in the area where obstetric surgeries, such as cesarean sections (C-sections), have been performed. These infections can involve the incision site, the uterus (in the case of C-sections), and surrounding tissues. Obstetric SSIs can lead to complications, prolong hospital stays, delay recovery, and potentially impact both the mother and the newborn.
Abdominal surgical site infections (SSIs) are infections that occur in the area where abdominal surgeries have been performed. These infections can involve the incision site, the deeper layers of tissue, and sometimes the organs or structures that were operated on.
Early detection and intervention are crucial for preventing the progression of surgical site infections in trauma surgery patients. Truss Health’s platform helps maintain a high level of vigilance, adhere to infection prevention protocols, and use a combination of clinical assessment, laboratory tests, and imaging studies to identify SSIs as soon as possible.
Vascular surgical site infections (SSIs) are infections that occur in the area where vascular surgeries have been performed. These infections can involve the incision site, the blood vessels, and surrounding tissues.
Cancer surgery site infections (SSIs) are infections that occur in the area where surgeries to treat cancer, such as tumor removal or lymph node dissection, have been performed. These infections can involve the incision site, surrounding tissues, and sometimes even the organs or structures that were operated on.
Diabetic foot infection is a serious complication that can arise in individuals with diabetes. Diabetes can lead to various complications, one of which is neuropathy (nerve damage) and peripheral vascular disease (poor blood circulation). These factors, combined with high blood sugar levels, can increase the risk of developing infections, particularly in the feet. Diabetic foot infections can range from mild to severe and require prompt medical attention to prevent serious complications, including the possibility of amputation.
A pressure ulcer is a localized injury to the skin and/or underlying tissue that usually occurs over a bony prominence due to pressure, friction, and/or shear forces. When the skin breaks down and the wound remains open, it creates an entry point for bacteria, leading to infection. Infection in pressure ulcers can cause additional complications and delay the healing process.
Arterial ulcers are open wounds that develop as a result of poor blood circulation, usually caused by arterial disease. These ulcers typically occur on the lower extremities, often on the feet or lower legs. Due to the compromised blood flow, arterial ulcers can be slow to heal and are susceptible to infection.
