Brief summary

Local application of antibiotics directly to the traumatic wound is a promising treatment for the prevention of infection after open tibia fractures, which are a significant source of disease burden globally, particularly in low-income countries. This study aims to measure the effect of locally applied gentamicin on risk of infection for open tibial fractures in Tanzania. If proven effective, local gentamicin would be a highly cost-effective strategy to reduce complications and disability from open tibial fractures that could impact care in both high- and low-income countries.
