Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Management of prosthetic joint infections (PJI) is a challenging task. These infections include different clinical and microbiological settings calling upon various treatment strategies according to infection type (acute or chronic), bone quality, the involved micro-organism and the patient's general condition and willing.

Treatment of PJI combines surgery and prolonged antibiotic therapy. In some patients with a high operative risk prolonged suppressive antibiotic therapy can be used.

Lack of large prospective studies motivated the conception of this cohort with a long term follow up, regardless to PJI management procedures.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    Large prospective cohort study in a French referral center for bone and joint infections.

    Population

    • all patients who consented to participate in the study with PJI treated with:

    • debridement-synovectomy for acute infection

    • with one-stage, two-stage exchange arthroplasty for chronic infection

    • other procedures (complete removal of the prosthesis) and antibiotic therapy

    • patients (non-operated or operated) receiving prolonged suppressive antibiotic therapy

    Outcome:
    • Follow-up at least 2 years

    • Events monitored: reinfection including relapse and new infection, joint revision for mechanical failure, PJI related or non-related death Study duration: 10 years. Recruitment period: 4 years. Maximal duration of data collection: 6 years. Investigator center: monocenter study. Mean patient inclusion per year: 100 patients per year.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of patients with hip and knee prosthetic joint reinfection (relapse and new infection) and multi-variable analysis of reinfection risk factors [2 years]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Assessment of joint function at one, two, four and 6 years after prosthesis revision with one or two stage exchange arthroplasty. [1, 2, 4, 6 years]

    2. Assessment of mechanical failure rate six years after prosthesis revision with one or two stage exchange arthroplasty [6 years]

    3. Assessment of treatment failure rate in patients with hip and knee PJI 2 years after prolonged suppressive antibiotic therapy in non-operated patients. [2 years]

    4. Assessment of reinfection rate of shoulder PJI two years after prosthesis revision with one or two stage exchange arthroplasty. [2 years]
