In this study we investigated that surgical site infections (SSI) established in Mugla Sitki Kocman University Medical Faculty Hospital between 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2014. Outcome surveillance of SSI rates is determined prospectively including laboratory and clinical criteria on hospitalized patients, in surgical clinics. SSIs were categorized according to the classification system of National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System (NNIS) 2013 report. SSI ratio of each surgical procedure was calculated and compared with the NNIS2013 data. At the end of the study we found SSIs in 39 patients. When we analyzed categorized surgical procedures, SSI rate was found %0.96 in 39 patients. %42.6 of these attacks were deepincisional, % 33.3 of them were superficial-incisional and %20.5 of them were organ/space infections. The majority of the cases were found in the Department of Orthopedics (%38.5) and General Surgery (%23.1) respectively. Comparing to the NNISS-2013, hepatopancreatobiliary system (CI: 0.07-0.67 RR: 0.23), knee prosthesis (CI: 0.08-0.60 RR: 0.23), and laminectomy (CI: 0.09-0.84 RR: 0.27) procedures had statistically significant SSI ratios. In conclusion, as is for all hospital infections, it is essential that SSI surveillance should be implemented effectively so that precautions could be taken for the problems and every hospital can evaluate their own data
