SSI, SSO, SSE, SSOPI: the elusive language of complications in hernia surgery

Authors: J. DeBord, Y. Novitsky, R. Fitzgibbons, M. Miserez, A. Montgomery

Published in: Hernia | Issue 5/2018

Excerpt

Wound complications go hand in hand with any surgical procedure, but recently have been increasingly scrutinized as more detailed analyses of outcomes are demanded by providers, payers and patients alike. In this issue of Hernia, Dr. Haskins and associates, have published a stimulating and thought-provoking review of the nomenclature of wound complications using a unique analysis of the 50 most cited papers on ventral hernia repair from 1995 to 2015 [1]. With this group of papers serving as a surrogate for thoughtful and well-designed scientific papers of high quality, a striking absence of a common language with standardized definitions was identified. Why is this? …
