MARIN PEREZ, Alfredo Lázaro et al. Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis. Povidone Iodine. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2022, vol.36, n.3 Epub 01-Set-2022. ISSN 1561-3100.
Introduction:
Preoperative skin decontamination is part of standard surgical practice. Surgical site infection implies an additional cost to health systems and an increase in morbidity and mortality of patients undergoing surgery. Povidone iodine is a widely used disinfectant to eliminate the bacterial load on the skin.
Objective:
To verify if povidone iodine is better than other skin disinfectants in reducing surgical site infections.
Methods:
A search of articles and controlled clinical trials published since 2015 was carried out in Google Scholar, PubMed and Embase and using terms of the Mesh such as povidone iodine, surgical site infection, surgery, local antiseptics, joined by the Boolean operator AND in addition to Adult filters. The Jadad scale for risk of bias and Consort 2010 and PRISMA checklist were applied to determine the quality of the study. Relative risk was the measure of effect for CI95 and an error of 0.05. Eight controlled clinical trials were included, n= 4800 cases, with the distribution of events in the experimental groups 140/2402 and control 141/2398, for a non-significant difference p=0.444. Heterogeneity was I2=62.57%.
Conclusions:
There were no differences between povidone iodine and the rest of the disinfectants to reduce the percentage of surgical site infections in this study.
