Evaluation of Ceftriaxone as a Monotherapy and Amoxicillin With Clavulanic Acid as Combination Therapy in Surgical Prophylaxis

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is crucial in preventing postoperative surgical site infections (SSIs), especially in clean and clean‐contaminated surgeries. It was a prospective comparative observational study that compared the effectiveness and safety of single‐dose ceftriaxone monotherapy with amoxicillin–clavulanic acid as a ...

Pathogenesis of Prosthetic Joint Infections

, 2012
Every wound is contaminated, but not all wounds end with a ­prosthetic joint infection (PJI). The pathogenic process involves bacterial ­adhesion steps that are fundamental in the early stage of PJI development and the consecutive biofilm formation. Biofilm development is an essential step in establishment of a chronic PJI.

Prior osteosynthesis—unlike osteotomy—raises revision risk after total knee arthroplasty, predominantly via periprosthetic infection

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Previous knee surgery is discussed as a risk factor for total knee arthroplasty (TKA), yet most reports do not distinguish between osteotomy and osteosynthesis. The German Operationen‐ und Prozedurenschlüssel (OPS)‐based classification was used to compare the impact of these procedures on implant survival, mortality and complications ...

The Effectiveness of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in the Diagnosis of Prosthetic Joint Infection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

, 2022
BACKGROUND: A prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication following total joint arthroplasties with poor prognosis. Identifying an accurate and prompt diagnostic method is particularly important for PJI.

Patients with previous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction achieve equally good outcomes after total knee arthroplasty: A Swedish registry‐based study of 7755 patients

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may later require total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to osteoarthritis (OA). The impact of previous ACLR on patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) after TKA remains uncertain.

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 ...
