    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2017) Espilco Limaco, Maruja Gladys; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
    Objective: To analyze the evidence regarding factors related to surgical site infections in patients post-cesarean section. Results: The most important factors related to surgical site infections in post-cesarean patients were the most isolated germs, such as Staphylococcus aureus (34%) and Escherichia Coli (17%). Additionally, risk factors related to the patient, which cause preoperative immunological alterations (such as diabetes, alcoholism, anemia (66.6%), malnutrition, neoplasms), obesity (42.8%), age, and previous surgeries (a previous scar alters blood supply) were identified. Conclusions: 66.6% of the articles reviewed indicate that factors related to surgical site infections in post-cesarean patients are the germs and microorganisms found, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia Coli. Additionally, 50% of the articles reviewed indicate that the time of surgical intervention is a factor associated with surgical site infections.
