| Abstract | OBJECTIVE To compare the prophylactic efficacy of 1 g ceftriaxone with 1.5 g cefuroxime + 0.5 g metronidazole for febrile morbidity and urinary tract infection in patients undergoing vaginal hysterectomy. STUDY DESIGN A prospective, randomized, comparative, non-blinded study with at least 100 patients on each side. The two-sample t-test was used for testing equality of two means and the chi 2 test was used for pair differences. RESULTS Single dose cefuroxime + metronidazole and ceftriaxone were equally effective in preventing febrile morbidity postoperatively. Additionally ceftriaxone was more effective in sterilizing pre-operatively existing bacteriuria. |
