Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Background: There is no consensus on the duration of prophylactic antibiotics for autologous breast reconstruction after mastectomy. We try to standardize prophylactic antibiotics use during breast reconstruction with deep inferior epigastric perforator flap following mastectomy.

Methods: This retrospective case series involved 108 patients who underwent immediate breast reconstruction with deep inferior epigastric perforator flap in Ditmanson Medical Foundation Chia-Yi Christian Hospital between 2012 and 2019. Patients were divided into three groups based on prophylactic antibiotic duration: 1 day, 3 days and \>7 days for patients with drains Data were analyzed between January and April, 2021.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PAD

In prophylactic antibiotics for drain group (PAD) (n = 15), prophylactic cefazolin 1000 mg was given 30 minutes before surgery, every 4 hours in the peri-operative period, and every 6 hours in the post-operative for 10-14 days when the drains were removed from the breast and abdomen.

prophylactic antibiotics duration

Intervention Type DRUG

Prophylactic cefazolin 1000 mg was given 30 minutes before surgery, every 4 hours in the peri-operative period, and every 6 hours in the post-operative care. Different discontinued duration of antibiotics was divided to 3 groups in one day, 3 days and until to drain removal.

PA3

In the 3-day prophylactic antibiotics group (PA3) (n = 11), prophylactic cefazolin 1000 mg was given 30 minutes before surgery, every 4 hours in peri-operative period, and 6-hourly thereafter for 3 days.

Intervention Type DRUG

Prophylactic cefazolin 1000 mg was given 30 minutes before surgery, every 4 hours in the peri-operative period, and every 6 hours in the post-operative care. Different discontinued duration of antibiotics was divided to 3 groups in one day, 3 days and until to drain removal.

PA1

In the 1-day prophylactic antibiotics group (PA1) (n = 82), patients received prophylactic cefazolin 1000 mg 30 minutes before surgery, every 4 hours in the peri-operative period, and every 6 hours in the post-operative period and antibiotics were discontinued within 24 hours of surgery.
