Serum D-dimer as a diagnostic index of PJI and retrospective analysis of etiology in patients with PJI

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2020
To investigate the diagnostic value of serum D-dimer in patients with periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Moreover, to provide evidence for the treatment of PJI by investigating distribution of pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance situation among the patients.A retrospective study of the medical records of all patients undergoing ...

REVISION DUE TO PJI INCREASES RISK OF PERIOPERATIVE MYOCARDIAL INJURY AND DEATH IN COMPARISON TO PRIMARY AND NON-PJI REVISION ARTHROPLASTY

Orthopaedic Proceedings, 2023
AimPerioperative myocardial infarction/injury (PMI) is a common complication in noncardiac surgery, contributing to postoperative morbidity and mortality. We aimed to identify the risk for PMI in periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in comparison to primary hip (THA) and knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to non-PJI revision surgery.MethodsPatients undergoing

Renal Toxicity Associated With Resection and Spacer Insertion for Chronic Hip PJI

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2021
Two-stage exchange arthroplasty with high-dose antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer and intravenous (IV) antibiotics is the most common method of managing infected total hip arthroplasties. However, the contemporary incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of acute kidney injuries (AKIs) in this cohort are unknown.We identified 227 patients treated with ...

Does D-Dimer really help in the diagnosis of chronic periprosthetic joint infections (PJI)? A case-control study

Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery, 2020
Introduction The differential diagnosis between aseptic and septic total joint arthroplasty (TJA) revision is fundamental in order to be successful in the surgical treatment. Several serum biomarkers have been proposed as gold standards in the diagnosis

Synovial C-reactive protein features high negative predictive value but is not useful as a single diagnostic parameter in suspected periprosthetic joint infection (PJI)

Journal of Infection, 2019
OBJECTIVES Synofluid C-reactive protein (syCRP) has been recently described as a new biomarker in preoperative diagnostics to identify periprosthetic joint infections (PJI).

How I do it…. How infection doctors approach the PJI MDT

The Knee, 2020
The management of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) requires discussion between experts working towards the aims and expectations of the patient. Each discipline typically does not offer a single-minded approach, but instead collectively weighs up the strengths and weaknesses of different management options.

PROPHYLAXIS AND MANAGEMENT OF PERIPROSTHETIC JOINT INFECTION (PJI) WITH HYPOCHLOROUS ACID

Orthopaedic Proceedings, 2023
The incidence of PJI in knee replacements is 2.8% and slightly lower with hip replacement surgery. PJI make up 15% (or even more) of knee revisions. To combat PJI, antibiotic laden bone cement has been used for many decades, but antibiotic stewardship dictates more prudent management of antimicrobials.

Management of periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs)

2016
Management of Periprosthetic Joint Infections (PJIs): Management of PJIs discusses periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), a fairly rare occurrence that is nonetheless one of the most serious complications in joint replacement surgery. Intricate interactions between the pathogen, the host, and the implant can result in PJIs which are not only physically ...
