Objectives The purpose of the study is to identify and analyse the barriers in surgical procedures where antibiotic dissipation is habitual. Methods Extensive literature search is carried out using different electronic databases (PubMed, Europe PMC, PLoS and Google Scholar) between January 2000 and December 2020. The articles were selected purely based on the inclusion criteria. Only qualitative and cross-sectional studies were selected to reduce the risk of bias. The JBI and AXIS checklists were used to assessed the quality of the enrolled articles. Data extractions were done by using a predesigned standardized data collection form. Key findings A total of 2067 articles were electronically retrieved but only 14 articles met the eligibility criteria. About 15 902 healthcare professionals (HCPs) with an average response rate of 64.7% were pooled for evidence synthesis. The majority of respondents (50%) discussed different barriers in their practice site for surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) administration. Barriers were categorized into four themes: lack of guideline availability and knowledge, lack of adherence to guidelines, lack of guideline knowledge and adherence and physician perceptions or off-label practices. A total of 723 (56.3%) out of 1282 HCPs from nine different studies reported a lack of adherence to guidelines during the perioperative process. The majority of respondents in three studies, 318 (82%) out of 386 HCPs, reported that physicians’ perceptions play a crucial role in prescribing SAP during surgeries. Conclusion This study concluded that the barriers within the practice site play a decisive role in SAP optimization and therefore all HCPs are recommended to maintain local/standard guidelines and adhere to them while prescribing SAP.
