Abstract
Our study confirms that even when strong evidence exists, surgeons fail to adhere to antibiotic prophylaxis guidelines. This pattern is not unique to Lebanon but is shared to a large extent by surgeons around the world. Adherence to published guidelines and improved education of surgeons are essential to the delivery of cost-effective medical practice.
