Objective To study the factors which cause  incisional wound infection after bone surgery, and take effective measures  to prevent and control bone surgical infection.
Methods Bone surgical incision performed in clean operating room were monitored during two stages, the first stage was March 1, 2008-December 31, 2008 ( investigation stage), the occurrence of infection and related factors were investigated; the second stage was January 1,2009-May 31,2009 (intervention stage), related factors according to  the investigated results were intervened. Infection rates in two stages were compared.
Results Incisional wound infecton rate in investigation  and intervention stage was 5.07% (23/454) and 1.41% (3/213) respectively,  infection rate in intervention stage decreased obviously (χ2=4.25, P<0.05).Conclusion Effective prevention and control of bone surgical  incisional wound infection can achieve through management of clean operating room, qualified  sterilization of  operation instruments and relative material, rational use of perioperative antimicrobial agents, correct surgical hand disinfection, strict rules of dressing, and raising of  health care workers’ awareness about infection control
