This review focuses on the use of cementless implants for acetabular revision. The use of trabecular metal cups, augments, jumbo cups, oblong cups, cages, and structural grafting are also discussed.
The updated guidelines include generalized recommendations for parenteral antimicrobial prophylaxis, non-parenteral antimicrobial prophylaxis, glycemic control, normothermia, oxygenation, and antiseptic prophylaxis. The arthroplasty section includes recommendations for blood transfusion, systemic immunosuppressive therapy, and antibiotics during drain use. There was low-quality evidence precluding recommendations for preoperative intra-articular corticosteroid injections, orthopedic surgical space suits, and biofilm management. The recommendations provided throughout this review, including more recent guidelines from other organizations such as the AAOS and ACR, should assist clinicians in developing and/or refining surgical site prevention protocols for their patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty procedures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
