Journal Title: Dokuz Eylul Universitesi Tip Fakultesi Dergisi - Year 2017, Vol 31, Issue 2
Abstract
Major and minor surgical procedures are commonly performed applications in obstetrics and gynecology practice. Today, conventional surgical methods tend to evolve towards less invasive methods. Laparoscopic and robotic methods replace surgeries performed with open incisional methods, patient-friendly approaches have come to the fore. Obstetric and particularly gynecological procedures develop in this direction; the importance of minimally invasive, evidence-based medicine applications and patient-friendly treatments increase. As in all areas of surgery; asepsis and antisepsis rules as well, prophylactic use of antibiotics are important practices that reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with obstetric and gynecological procedures. In this review, in the light of current knowledge the use of prophylactic antibiotics, in terms of evidence-based medical practices in obstetric and gynecologic surgery was examined.
