SHAPE Study


Survey of Hernia Antibiotic Prophylaxis usE
Steering Committee: Alex Aiken, Nick Symons, James Haddow

Should we use antibiotic prophylaxis for elective inguinal hernia repairs?
In a recent Cochrane Review (Sanchez-Manuel et al., 2012) the jury is still out. So if there is no clear answer then what are people doing? SHAPE aims to answer this and also if there is clinical equipoise.

This project has been finished and the paper has been accepted by Hernia.
