Title of your Abstract : A Novel Intervention for Early Detection of Deep Wound Infection/Dehiscence in Bladder Exstrophy and Hypospadias: Postoperative Serial Non-Touch Surgical Wound Temperature Measurement

Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : PURPOSE
Surgical wound infection is a major risk factor for bladder dehiscence (BD) after bladder exstrophy surgery. This study aims to introduce a practical method for early detection and management of surgical site infection and impending BD after exstrophy surgery.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Eleven exstrophy patients who underwent single stage reconstruction were enrolled. A non-contact digital infrared temperature measurement device was used to measure temperatures on forehead and the surgical wound site prior, during and after reconstruction. Temperatures were documented every 8 hours for 12 days postoperatively. Parents were trained to measure the temperatures for two weeks following discharge. The same postoperative protocol was applied for 13 hypospadias patients (group II) as the control group.
RESULTS
None of the patients in the hypospadias group developed local temperature rise during the postoperative follow-up. However, two children with exstrophy developed temperature rise in the surgical wound area without rise in forehead temperature. The wound site temperature reached 39.2˚C in one case and 39.4˚C in another at 12 and 16 days postoperatively, respectively. Urine and wound cultures obtained at the time of temperature rise confirmed gram-positive infection. After starting the appropriate antibiotic regimen, the wound temperatures gradually decreased.
CONCLUSIONS
Serial measurement of the surgical wound site temperature may be a promising method following exstrophy surgery. This feasible technique might predict the occurrence of deep wound infection and help surgeons to prevent consequent dehiscence and total wound opening before classic and visible signs and symptoms of wound infection occur.

How many volunteers were present at the Congress? : 4
Delegates from which countries presented in the congress? : Italy, Spain, France, Turkey, Germany, Russia
Were the delegates of any other organizations present in the congress? : Yes
If yes, please write the names of the organizations in the box : Deflux company
What were the responses to your talking points? Were specific questions or concerns raised? : As the presentation and the study was brief and feasible for clinical application, there were no specific questions or concerns raised
If you met staff members, please list their full names & positions. :
Gianantonio Manzoni (ESPU President-Elect) and Radim Kočvara (Chairman of the Congress)
Please inform us if there are any follow up actions we need to talk with the members of the congress : I should inform you that there are no follow up actions you need to talk with the members of the congress as we have already received our certification from European Society for Paediatric Urology congress. I think that there is no need for any follow up action.Thank you so much for your kind consideration.
Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : lots of experiences. The hotel was reserved via booking
Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : We learned more about pediatric urology diseases and the outcome was good. We met many pioneer professors in pediatric urology diseases. I gained invaluable experiences in the 26th ESPU Congress, Joint Meeting with ICCS + SPU + AAP/SOU + AAPU + SFU - Prague, Czech Republic on October 14-17th, 2015. It was a great pleasure for me to meet famous pediatric urologists and to evaluate my ability to present my work in an international congress outside my country.I decided to present my work in an international congress, it was difficult and stressful at first but of course that was worthy.
