Objective: Survey on the use of antibiotic prophylaxis in pediatric surgery at Nghe An Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital in 2023. Subjects and methods: Patients received clean surgical intervention and clean-contaminated surgery according to the standards of the Ministry of Health, designed to describe and analyze retrospectively on 387 medical records of patients at the Department of General Surgery and Orthopedics.

The rate of using single regimen is 97.68%, of which cafalothin is the most used, accounting for 86.30%. The time of using prophylactic antibiotics before surgery is from 30 minutes to 60 minutes, which is 85.27%. In 99.74% of cases, drugs were administered intravenously.
