Brief Summary

Surgical site infections (SSIs) is one of the most common complications of upper abdominal surgery. Previous studies found that type of surgical incision, emergency operation or not, surgical duration, age of patient, body mass index, malignance duration, malnutrition, complications (diabetes, shock, anemia et al) and drug (Long-term use of corticosteroids) are closely associated with the incidence of SSIs. The general incidence rate of SSIs was about 5% to 40%, although using the preoperative skin disinfectant and other methods to prevent and reduce the SSIs. And for the gastrointestinal surgery, due to the potential risk of infection, SSIs is an important problem which cannot be ignored. On the other hand, gastric cancer is one of the most common digestive system tumors, and gastrectomy is the primary therapeutic options. Therefore, it is important to compare the whether the different liquid (1% povidone-iodine solution or the 0.9% normal saline) wash the incision can influent the incidence of the SSIs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Superficial incisional surgical site infections

    The ceriteria for defining a surgical site infection adopt the defination of the Guideline for Prevention of Surgical Site Infection, 1999. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Hospital Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee.Am J Infect Control. 1999;27(2):97-132; quiz 133-4; discussion 96.

    30-day of postoperative duration

Study Arms (2)

Group A (povidone-iodine group)

EXPERIMENTAL

The surgical incision is washed by the mixed solution with 400ml 9% normal saline and 100ml 5% povidone-iodine solution. We declare that we have no conflicts of interest.

Procedure: Group A (povidone-iodine wash the surgical incision)

Group B (normal saline group)

EXPERIMENTAL

The surgical incision is washed by the 500ml 0.9% normal saline. We declare that we have no conflicts of interest.

Procedure: Group B (normal saline wash the surgical incision)

Interventions

Gastric cancer patients underwent conventional open D2 total or subtotal gastrectomy and with povidone-iodine wash the surgical incision

Group A (povidone-iodine group)

Gastric cancer patients underwent conventional open D2 total or subtotal gastrectomy and with normal saline wash the surgical incision

Group B (normal saline group)

  • Patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy which might affect the efficacy observation;
  • Severity mental diseases;
  • Primary lesion cannot be resected in the pattern of transabdominal gastrectomy, but for Whipple's procedure, or with a transthoracic approach surgery;
  • After signature the Clinical trial agreement, patients and their agent will quit the trial.
