BACKGROUND: There is sparse evidence of the relationship between environmental and financial costs of surgical-site infection. Identifying areas of high-cost burden would enable key targets for clinical interventions to aid in achieving the UK nation...

Remote assessment of surgical site infection(SSI) lacks sensitivity for diagnosis of SSI but current evidence has not evaluated whether a combination of photographs and questionnaires improves diagnostic accuracy. This study aims to devel... Read More about ASSIST: Development of a simplified clinician-patient hybrid reporting outcome measure for remote diagnosis of surgical site infection.
