Prevention of periprosthetic joint infection

Abstract: The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently published guidelines for the prevention of surgical site infection. The WHO guidelines, if implemented worldwide, could have an immense impact on our practices and those of the CDC have implications for healthcare policy in the United States. Our aim was to review the strategies for prevention of periprosthetic joint infection in light of these and other recent guidelines. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2017… Show more

“…Antibiotics like rifampin has been commonly used in combination with other antibiotics to treat S. aureus infections, and has seemed to be promising in treating orthopedic implant-associated infections; however, data supporting this practice are limited and more definitive data are lacking. 51 Guidelines for prophylaxis and treatment of orthopedic infections have been established, [52][53][54] and if implemented worldwide, they could have immense impact on healthcare policy and practices. These principles and guidelines will enable orthopedic surgeons to be more effective in preventing infections and reducing the use of antibiotics.…”

“…Понятно лишь, что указания на незначительное число инфекционных осложнений (менее 1%) [36] и высокую эффективность ее лечения (более 95% эрадикации) [37] не совсем соответствуют действительности. Иначе сложно объяснить, почему в СШа при выполнении полутора миллио-нов операций эндопротезирования крупных суставов выполняется ежегодно более 38 тысяч вмешательств по поводу перипротезной инфекции [38]. Основным фактором успеха в лечении перипротезной инфекции является своевременное признание проблемы и соответствующие тяжести процесса лечебные мероприятия [39].…”
