Transurethral resection of the prostate is associated with a major risk of postoperative infection. To evaluate the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis with a single dose of netilmicin sulfate, we conducted a randomized study in 100 patients with sterile preoperative urine undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate. Of these patients 95 were evaluated: 47 were randomized to the control group and received an intramuscular injection of 1.5ml. of a 0.9 per cent solution of sodium chloride 1 hour preoperatively and 48 were given an intramuscular injection of 150mg. netilmicin sulfate in a volume of 1.5ml. 1 hour preoperatively. Of the patients 16 in the control group (34 per cent) and only 1 in the treated group (2 per cent) had bacteriuria (greater than 105bacteria per ml.) (p less than 0.001). This difference also was significant 2 and 5 days postoperatively (p less than 0.05 and p less than 0.001, respectively). One patient in the control group had bacteremia compared to none in the treated group. Clinical signs of infection were less common in the treated group. |
