ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the reasonable proposal of prophylactic antibiotics use in selective colorectal operation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and sixty-five patients underwent colorectal surgery were randomized to Treatment 1 (55 cases), Treatment 2 (50 cases) and Control (60 cases) group. The Treatment 1 group was given oral MgSO4 solution at the night before operation, and Cefradine 2.0 g (I.V.) during the induction of anesthesia, continued with tow times of intravenous Cefradine 2.0 g and 0.5% Metronidazole 100 ml at an interval of 12 hours in 24 hours after the operation. The Treatment 2 group was given the same treatment as Treatment 1, but the antibiotics would not be withdrawn until 3-5 d after operation. On the basis of the treatment of Treatment 2 group, the Control group was given oral antibiotics 2-3 days before operation. Postoperative complications including surgical site infection, stoma leakage, dysbacteriosis, and WBC, body temperature, days of hospitalization and antibiotic expenses in the three groups were observed and compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There was no significant differences in surgical site infection, stoma leakage, WBC counting and its change, body temperature and hospital stay among the three groups (P > 0.05). The incidence rate of dysbacteriosis in Control group was significantly higher than that in Treatment 1 group (P < 0.05). The antibiotic expenses in the Treatment 1 group was significantly lower than those of the other two groups (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Prophylactic antibiotic use during the induction of anesthesia and 24 hours after operation was reasonable in selective colorectal operation, it can prevent the surgical site infection effectively with good social-economic effects and fewer side effects.</p>
