Abstract

Aim of study. Observation of the prophylactic antibiotic use during intrauterine procedures. Method. From Jan. 1st, to Apr. 1st, 2007, in Fertility/Sterility Dept. of Gynecologic Clinic, Zagreb, use of antibiotics was analyzed. Thirteen gynecologists were observed. Results. The 144 intrauterine procedures were performed: hysteroscopies and D&C-s. Antibiotics were recommended between 0% and 100%, even in the same procedure performed by the specific gynecologist. Antibiotic use differed from doctor to doctor and was not related to clinical situation. There were no complications described, regardless of antibiotic use. Conclusion. The prophylactic use of antibiotics during intrauterine procedures has to be revised. All doctors performing such operations should be reeducated.
