Purpose: The purpose of this literature review is to determine how clinicians evaluate and manage uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Data Source: The research topic is explored based on an electronic search for literature published between 2003 and 2008 in MEDLINE and PubMed. The following search terms were used to secure noteworthy academic studies: skin abscess incision and drainage, incision and drainage, skin and soft tissue abscesses, uncomplicated skin and soft tissue abscesses, and antibiotics for soft tissue infections. Conclusions: A clinical practice guideline based on evidence-based practice will provide clinicians with an appropriate treatment protocol for uncomplicated skin and soft tissue abscesses. An evidence-based clinical practice guideline has the potential to positively influence patient outcomes and eliminate the unnecessary use of antibiotics. Implications for Practice: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for the management of skin and soft tissue infections should be adopted by all clinicians in an effort to standardize treatment. Furthermore, clinicians must stay informed about the epidemiological and treatment of emerging organisms in their patient populations.
