A member asked:
What are the odds of me getting a staph infection after debridement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: It depends on the quality of sterile technique practiced by your doctor and/or or, as well as if perioperative antibiotics are used, and the duration of time for the debridement. Bedside debridements would be more likely than a true sterile or debridement.
