Nothing but Evidence-Based Solutions, Backed by a Consensus of 820 Clinicians
From Insight to Action: Adopt evidence-based SSI prevention practices.
What should SSI prevention look like from now on? Europe now has an answer.
For years, approaches to surgical site infection (SSI) prevention have varied across specialties, institutions, and countries. Today, that is changing.
Drawing on the expertise of 820 clinicians from across Europe, a new multidisciplinary consensus defines the key evidence-based practices that matter most before, during, and after surgery, leaving no room for opinions when patient outcomes are at stake.
Why it Matters
From uncertainty to consensus. More than 800 experts from diverse specialties and countries came together to define best practice.
The result? A powerful, evidence-based consensus that sets a new benchmark for SSI prevention and provides healthcare organizations with a practical framework for standardized implementation.
