Imaging of Infectious Arthritis [PDF]

open access: possibleSeminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2003
Septic arthritis is a disabling and potentially life-threatening condition that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. Radiologists play a vital role in both the diagnosis and management of these patients and, therefore, need to be aware of the imaging findings in both acute and chronic septic arthritis.

INFECTIOUS ARTHRITIS

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1993
Infectious arthritis should be suspected in any patient with a swollen joint but especially in children, debilitated patients, immunocompromised persons, those with infection elsewhere (even if on antibiotics), and those with other types of arthritis or a prosthetic joint. Diagnosis depends on obtaining joint fluid for culture and Gram stain.

Infectious Arthritis

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1990
Any patient who presents with an acute monarticular arthritis, especially a new asymmetric effusion with underlying joint disease, should be suspected of having a bacterial process. Because synovial fluid findings (leukocyte counts and glucose) may not be predictive of infection, bacteriologic analysis by smear and culture is necessary in the ...

Reactive arthritis or post-infectious arthritis?

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2006
The term 'reactive arthritis' was first used in 1969 to describe the development of sterile inflammatory arthritis as a sequel to remote infection, often in the gastrointestinal or urogenital tract. The demonstration of antigenic material (e.g. Salmonella and Yersinia lipopolysaccharide), DNA and RNA, and, in occasional cases, evidence of metabolically

Infectious Arthritis in the Elderly [PDF]

open access: possible, 2011
Infections have long been known to be leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the elderly population. Immunosenescence of both the innate and adaptive immune systems contributes largely to this and we have examined the studies which show changes in toll-like receptors (TLRs), cytokines, dendritic cells, antibody response, and T-cells.

Infectious agents in reactive arthritis

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1993
It is now clear that the deposition and persistence of bacterial antigens in the joint are significant features of reactive arthritis. It is possible that in some instances this represents persistence of live bacteria, and several studies point to the potential value of antimicrobial therapy.
