Abstract
Abstract
A series of 285 patients attending an accident and emergency department with wounds which required suturing was divided at random into two equal groups. The first group received a single dose of depot penicillin at the time of suture and the second group received no antibiotic cover. The incidence of subsequent wound infection was not significantly reduced in patients who received penicillin.
