Abstract
Surgical site infections affect low and middle income countries badly because it’s tough to afford and manage the usual prevention methods there. This conceptual paper examines how low cost variations and innovations can be theorized, categorized, and integrated into surgical practice without compromising core principles of infection control. The paper takes Donabedian’s model, tweaks it for low resource surgeries, and lays out a framework that connects the dots between the resources available, how surgeries are done, and what happens to patients Key concepts include “frugal innovation,” “principle-based substitution,” and “contextual fidelity.” The analysis identifies three domains of low cost innovation: material substitution, process redesign, and task realignment. The discussion touches on how policy, education, and global surgery could be affected. This work argues that SSI prevention in constrained settings requires shifting from a compliance based to a principles determined paradigm. Future research needs to check out this new idea and see how it works in different surgery areas
