The three most common genera were Staphylococcus, Corynebacterium and Streptococcus. Using multivariable logistic regression models, humidity in the operating room (odds ratio: 1.04, 95% confidence interval: 1.00\u20131.08; p\u2009=\u20090.038) and the number of individuals scrubbed into surgery (odds ratio: 0.59, 95% confidence interval: 0.39\u20130.91; p\u2009=\u20090.016) had a significant effect on the likelihood of positive culture after surgery. Of the nine patients available for follow-up, one dog developed osteomyelitis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusions\u2003Maintaining the humidity in the operating room to the lowest comfortable level may reduce contamination of the surgical gown cuffs. Confirmation of bacterial contamination of surgical gown cuffs warrants adherence to operative guidelines to minimize the risk of surgical gown cuffs' contact with sterile attire, equipment and the surgical field during surgical procedures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-1756621","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,23]],"date-time":"2022-09-23T23:30:20Z","timestamp":1663975820000},"page":"21-28","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Evaluation of Surgical Gown Cuff Contamination During Orthopaedic Surgery in a Veterinary Teaching Hospital"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5102-3208","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kenneth J.","family":"Brand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8809-8388","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sarah","family":"Malek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Audrey","family":"Ruple","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health, College of Health and Human Sciences, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.
