Brief Summary: This is a study to determine if the incidence of infection at the Surgical SitE is impacted if with Antibiotic Irrigation is used during Ventral Hernia Repair (RINSE Trial)
Detailed Description: Surgical site infection (SSI) is common after open ventral hernia repair. Numerous factors contribute, including patient comorbidities, operative technique, and degree of contamination of the case. SSI often requires prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS), readmission, or other procedural intervention. One potential intervention to reduce SSI is the use of antibiotic irrigation, which has been shown to reduce SSI in colorectal surgery in a recent randomized control trial. We retrospectively evaluated our use of dual antibiotic irrigation at the time of mesh placement during open ventral hernia repair (OVHR), demonstrating a significant reduction in SSI (16.5 vs 5.4%) using a combination of gentamicin and clindamycin irrigation when compared to saline alone.

We plan to complete a registry-based, randomized clinical trial (RCT) through the Americas Hernia Society Quality Collaborative (AHSQC) to further assess the impact of dual antibiotic irrigation on SSI after OVHR with mesh. This will include patients undergoing open retromuscular (RM) repair with or without transversus abdominis myofascial advancement flap (TAR) with placement of permanent synthetic mesh (mid-weight, large-pore polypropylene). Power analysis based on only this subset of patients from our initial study indicates a total of 210 patients are needed to demonstrate a significant reduction in SSI using antibiotic irrigation vs saline irrigation alone.
