Summary

Total knee arthroplasty post-op surgical site infection rate about 0.5- 5% Pre-operative , perioperative and post-operative prevention are importance for reduce surgical site infection The prevention of surgical-site infections (SSIs) is an integral component of nosocomial infection control and a major priority in orthopedic surgery.

Surgical wound contamination must be prevented to avoid patient colonisation by microorganisms during surgery.

Surgical glove changing perioperative can reduce contamination and perforation rate Orthopedic surgery had found contamination rate about 20-28 % Joint replacement procedure found contamination rate about 38-67% of all orthopedic surgery 12% of gloves are contaminated after draping and 24% once patient installation is complete.

We hypothesis that changing surgical glove during total knee arthroplasty can reduce contamination rate on surgical glove.
