Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
infectious complications
Time Frame: 30 days
infection rate will be assessed by need for intervention or prescription of non-prophylactic antibiotics or presence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS).
30 days
Postoperative complications
Time Frame: 30 days
The number of postoperative complications, either infectious or non-infectious. Postoperative complications will be assessed and classified according to modified Clavien-Dindo classification. It consists of 7 grades (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb and V) in which grade I represents the least severe complications and grade V represents the most severe complications.
30 days
Wound healing
Time Frame: 30 days
The number of properly healed wounds. wound healing will be assessed by Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) tool. this tool give every wound a score depending on surface area, exudate amount and tissue type. the scoring system ranging from 0 to 17 in which "0" represents completely healed wound and "17" represents the least healed wound. Surgical wounds are acute wounds that closure expected timeframe is about 4 weeks.
30 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Length of hospital stay
Time Frame: 30 days
will be measured by number of days of hospital stay.
30 days
Length of ICU stay
Time Frame: 30 days
will be measured by number of days of ICU stay.
