Abstract (English): A significant number of patients with abdominal infection develop advanced stages of infection and mortality is still above 20%. Failure is multifactorial and is associated with an increase of bacterial resitance, inappropriate empirical treatment, a higher comorbidity of patients and poor source control of infection. These guidelines discuss each of these problems and propose measures to avoid the failure based on the best current scientific evidence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Un número importante de pacientes con infección intraabdominal desarrollan estados avanzados de la infección y la mortalidad es todavía superior al 20%. El fracaso es multifactorial y se relaciona con el incremento de resistencias bacterianas, el tratamiento empírico inapropiado, la mayor comorbilidad de los pacientes y el mal control del foco de infección. Estas guías analizan cada uno de estos problemas y proponen medidas para evitar el fracaso, basadas en la mejor evidencia científica actual. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
