Clinical Practice Guidelines in Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infection 2018: An Indonesian Perspective.

Background: The occurrence of complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI) remains high despite system improvement in accordance with Joint Commission International because of heterogeneity of management.

Thus, a national CPG should be developed to minimize heterogeneity in the management of cIAI in Indonesia.
