Abstract
Fracture-related infections are a significant burden to the patient, associated with high health care costs and use of resources. Therefore, prevention is more critical than treatment of infection. There are injury- and patient-related risk factors that are mostly not modifiable, with the exception of a few patient-specific ones such as control of blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes. Measures of prevention can be implemented preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively.
