  • Regional and Seasonal Variations in the Incidence and Causative Organisms for Post-traumatic Wound infections and Osteomyelitis After Open Fractures Rochester, MN

This finding makes the current use of a generic antibiotic for prophylaxis suboptimal. In order to validate this original finding we need to conduct a large scale study to determine if the patterns of infection truly vary depending on the time of year and the region in which the fracture occurs, and if so to change the way prophylactic antibiotic use is administered.
