    Area of Science:

    • Infectious Diseases
    • Surgical Infections
    • Antimicrobial Therapy

    Background:

    • Severe infections often require advanced treatment strategies.
    • Peritoneal and wound lavage are critical procedures in managing complex infections.
    • Metronidazole is a key antibiotic for anaerobic bacterial infections.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of metronidazole in peritoneal and wound lavage.
    • To compare the outcomes of metronidazole lavage with existing studies.
    • To explore new therapeutic approaches for intraperitoneal sepsis.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized metronidazole for peritoneal lavage in patients with severe infections.
    • Applied metronidazole for wound lavage in a comparable patient cohort.
    • Analyzed treatment outcomes and patient recovery rates.

    Main Results:

    • Metronidazole demonstrated a rational and safe profile in both peritoneal and wound lavage.
    • The study's findings are comparable to those reported in previous research.
    • Initial results suggest efficacy in treating intraperitoneal sepsis.

    Conclusions:

    • Metronidazole lavage is a viable and safe option for severe peritoneal infections.
    • Further investigation is warranted to fully establish the therapeutic benefits of metronidazole in wound lavage.
