The majority of patients documented across both days had at least one risk factor (76% overall). The overall prevalence of SSCs was 8% (n = 68). Revision surgical procedures had significantly higher complication rates than primary surgical procedures in both hips and knees (p &lt; 0.01). The highest observed odds ratios (ORs) for SSCs were in patients who listed immunosuppression (OR = 2.47), previous SSI (OR = 4.59), and smoking (OR = 2.34) among their risk factors. Higher overall lengths of stay were observed in patients with complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These prevalence days were a successful initiative to help hospital sites understand their own burden, benchmark against national averages, and contribute to a better national understanding of the burden of SSC, both to healthcare systems and, most importantly, patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/10962964251360133","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,7]],"date-time":"2025-11-07T05:58:39Z","timestamp":1762495119000},"page":"639-645","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The Burden of Surgical Site Infection in Orthopedic Surgery: A Multi-Site Prevalence Day Exercise in the United Kingdom and Ireland"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Rhidian","family":"Morgan-Jones","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Essex and Suffolk Elective Orthopaedic Centre, Colchester Hospital, Colchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nichola","family":"McLaughlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Essex and Suffolk Elective Orthopaedic Centre, Colchester Hospital, Colchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Danielle","family":"Briggs","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Smith and Nephew, Hull, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tim","family":"Styche","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Smith and Nephew, Hull, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","unstructured":"UKHSA.
