Abstract

Abstract The operation wounds of 20 per cent of the children operated on in one surgical unit of a children's hospital became infected. Infection was commonest in the newly born operated on as emergencies, 50 per cent of whose wounds became infected. No connection was found between infection and nasal carriage of staphylococci. A possible source of injection in the young may be the umbilicus.
