Abstract
Pyogenic (suppurative) flexor tenosynovitis is a devastating infection within a closed space. Pyogenic flexor tenosynovitis necessitates an urgent treatment to preserve a viable and functioning finger, usually by surgical washout. The delayed diagnosis and treatment of this condition are associated with poor outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the plastic surgery department in Leeds Teaching Hospital practice of managing pyogenic flexor tenosynovitis against the British Society for Surgery of the Hand (BSSH) standard of care. The management of 27 patients was assessed in 2 cycle audits over one year period. Our Re-audit concluded the management of pyogenic flexor tenosynovitis by the plastic surgery department at Leeds Teaching Hospital has improved from the first cycle but there is still room to improve and meet the BSSH standard of care.
