Summary: Post-aptomy infections are common clinical complications that seriously affect the post-operative rehabilitation and quality of life of patients. This paper presents an analysis of the causes of post-avectitis infections and proposes prevention strategies to inform clinical practice. Key words: appendicitis;
Post-operative infections; prevention strategies

First, the introduction: appendicitis is one of the most common acute abdominal conditions in general surgery, and surgical appendix removal is the main method of treating appendicitis. However, the incidence of post-aptomy infections remains high, with statistics on about 10-30 per cent. Post-operative infections not only affect the rehabilitation of patients, but may also cause serious complications and even endanger life. It is therefore important to prevent post-automy infections. II. Awareness of the risk of post-operative infections After the operation, the patient ‘ s immune system was reduced and the wound became a potential gateway to bacterial invasion. When infection occurs, it not only increases the length of hospitalization, increases the financial burden, but also causes serious complications such as abdominal sepsis, sepsis and even life-threatening conditions. Prevention of post-operative infections is therefore key to ensuring the safety of patients and promoting rapid recovery. III. Pre-operative preparedness: to establish a solid foundation for the prevention of post-operative infections, which began before. Doctors conduct comprehensive pre-operative assessments, including on the nutritional status of patients, the functioning of the immune system, past medical history, etc., so as to develop individualized surgical programmes. The thorough cleaning and disinfection of the pre-operative skin and the reduction of bacteria are the first steps in the prevention of oral infections. At the same time, for patients at risk of infection, such as diabetics, the level of blood sugar needs to be adjusted in advance to increase the body ‘ s resistance to infection.
IV. Occupancy: the perfect combination of fine and sterile; the strict sterile environment in the operating room, the professional practice of doctors and nurses, is at the heart of reducing the risk of infection in the operation. Microstart surgery has a significant advantage in reducing infection rates due to its small trauma and rapid recovery. During the operation, doctors must exercise caution in order to avoid unnecessary tissue damage and reduce haemorrhage, while strictly following the principle of sterile technology to ensure the cleaning of surgical devices and operating areas. V. Post-operative care: nuanced care is the last line of defence against infection. First, it is essential to keep the wounds dry and clean. Depending on the condition of the wound, the dressing is periodically replaced and appropriate disinfectants are used. Secondly, patients are encouraged to get out of bed at the earliest opportunity, to promote blood circulation and to accelerate healing. At the same time, the rational use of antibiotics and the targeting of drugs based on the results of bacterial cultivation avoid the problem of resistance resulting from abuse.
VI. Case analysis: Drawing wisdom from the practice, for example, a young woman who has undergone an abdominal cortexectomy has slowly healed because of her physical condition. Through day-to-day intensive injury observation, regular replacement of dressing, enhanced nutritional support and psychological guidance, infection was prevented and successfully recovered from the hospital after careful care by the medical team. This case vividly demonstrates the importance of post-operative infection prevention and the effectiveness of individualized care programmes.
Seven, my thinking and my judgment to prevent post-avectitis infection is not just a test of medical technology, but a challenge to the patient’s self-management capacity. I believe that a comprehensive system of preventive measures requires the participation of doctors, nurses, patients and their families. Doctors must provide professional guidance and patients must actively cooperate, such as following medical instructions, eating properly and maintaining personal hygiene.
In addition, health education and information at the social level are essential to raise public awareness of post-operative infection prevention and to create a safer medical environment. In any case, the prevention of post-aptomy infections is a systematic project that involves every link before, during and after surgery. Only by working together will we be able to build a solid line of defence for the patients, so that they can embrace health and hope more quickly after suffering. Let us work together to write a better chapter on this path of recovery, which is full of challenges and opportunities.
