4 Figure 3 Microbiome of surgical site infection by attire policy. Pie charts represent the 3 most common microbiological isolates from positive wound cultures of patients with surgical site infection before and after the policy change. Streptococcus mitis was the third most common bacteria before the policy change vs Pseudomonas aeruginosa after the policy change; however, there was no difference in the proportion of Staphylococcus aureus isolates.
