Systemic antibiotics are effective in reducing the risk of infection after clean neurosurgical procedures. They are less effective in preventing shunt infection, but are strongly recommended in institutions experiencing a shunt infection rate exceeding 15%. The role for antibiotic prophylaxis using topical agents and in the prevention of meningitis associated with cerebrospinal fluid drainage is uncertain.
