Serum albumin-to-globulin ratio and CRP-to-albumin ratio did not outperform serum CRP in diagnosing periprosthetic joint infections

Bone & Joint Research
Aims: Serum inflammatory parameters are widely used to aid in diagnosing a periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Due to their limited performances in the literature, novel and more accurate biomarkers are needed.

Periprosthetic joint infection risk is comparable between unicompartmental knee arthroplasty to total knee arthroplasty conversion and primary total knee arthroplasty: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) offers benefits over total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but some studies indicated higher revision rates, often involving conversion to TKA. The infection risk associated with UKA to TKA conversion compared to primary TKA is not definitively established.

What are the inpatient and day case costs following primary total hip replacement of patients treated for prosthetic joint infection: a matched cohort study using linked data from the National Joint Registry and Hospital Episode Statistics

BMC Medicine, 2020
Background Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) following total hip replacement (THR) surgery is a serious complication that negatively impacts patients’ lives and is financially burdensome for healthcare providers.

Synovial interleukin‐6 point‐of‐care testing, alone and combined with D‐dimer, supports rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Single‐stage revision for chronic fistulized infected total knee arthroplasty achieves infection‐free survival comparable to non‐fistulized cases

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.

A standardized surgical technique for DAIR improves treatment success rates in acute periprosthetic knee infection

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Results after debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) for acute periprosthetic knee joint infections (PJIs) vary widely. Although data are limited, surgeon expertise and surgical technique likely influence outcomes. Standardized DAIR performed by surgeons within a multidisciplinary team (MDT) dedicated to the treatment of

Factors associated with rifampin resistance in staphylococcal periprosthetic joint infections (PJI): a matched case–control study

, 2013
PURPOSE: Rifampin combination therapy plays an important role in the management of staphylococcal periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). However, the emergence of rifampin resistance is a feared complication.
