    BackgroundThis study aimed to establish a precise preoperative high-risk factor scoring system and algorithm for antibiotic prophylaxis decision-making, provide guidance for the judicious use of AMP, refine interventions, and ensure the appropriate application of AMP for class I incisions in neurosurgery.MethodsAccording to PRISMA guidelines, literature searches, study selection, methodology development, and quality appraisal were performed. The quality of evidence across the study population was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. A two-round Delphi expert consultation method involved 15 experts from leading tertiary hospitals in China. Establishing an algorithm of SOPs for perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis in Class I neurosurgical incisions.ResultsThirteen studies, encompassing 11,936 patients undergoing clean neurosurgical procedures, were included. 791 patients experienced SSI, resulting in an average incidence of 6.62%. Identified risk factors significantly associated with an increased incidence of postoperative SSI (P < 0.05) included emergency surgery, preoperative hospitalization ≥7 days, intraoperative blood loss ≥300 mL, operation time ≥4 hours, diabetes mellitus, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and repeat surgery. Sensitivity analysis demonstrated robust results for emergency surgery, intraoperative blood loss ≥300 mL, operation time ≥4 hours, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and repeat surgery. Established a risk assessment system for Class I neurosurgical incisions by the Delphi method. Additionally, we have formulated an algorithm of SOPs for perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis in Class I neurosurgical incisions.ConclusionsThe established index for AMP utilization and SOPs in the preoperative period of class I neurosurgical incisions proves valuable, contributing to improved patient outcomes in neurosurgical procedures.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
