Book excerpt: Selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) is an antibiotic strategy which aims to prevent secondary infections in critically ill patients.

Physicians who have not practiced the strategy so far, and wishing to start it, will find all the information they need for a successful SDD implementation.
