J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg. 2021 Nov 27:S1748-6815(21)00605-7. doi: 10.1016/j.bjps.2021.11.060. Online ahead of print.

ABSTRACT

Surgical site infections (SSI) and chronic wounds represent a burden to patients and the health care system. One in 24 surgical patients will develop an SSI, making SSI the most common nosocomial infection in the USA. Early detection and monitoring of wound infection are critical for timely healing and return to normal function. However, the mainstay of wound infection diagnostic entails subjective clinical examination and semi-quantitative, invasive microbiological tests. In this review, we present current wound infection assessment modalities in the clinical and translational fields. There is a need for a point-of-care assessment tool that provides fast, accurate, and quantitative information on wound status, with minimal to no contact with the patient. In the next ten years, the evolution of wound diagno stic tools reported here may allow medical providers to optimize patient care while minimizing patient discomfort.
