pubmed:abstractText |
Interplay between wound resistance factors and bacterial innoculum determines the risk of surgical infection. Since cautery causes more damage than the scalpel, our hypothesis is that lower numbers of bacteria are required to infect wounds made by electric cautery than to infect wounds made with a scalpel.
