Comment to: The Incidence of Fracture-Related Infection in Open Tibia Fracture with Different Time Interval of Initial Debridement

Abstract

We read with great interest the study by Hadizie et al in the February 2022 issue entitled “The Incidence of Fracture-Related Infection in Open Tibia Fracture with Different Time Interval of Initial Debridement”. In their paper, they presented the relationship between fracture-related infection in open fracture of the tibia with time intervals of initial debridement. With limited studies in Malaysia investigating the correlation between the timing of initial debridement and the incidence of infection in open fracture of tibia, this study potentially shed more light on the optimal timing of initial debridement.
