NCT03473392 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 13

Last updated 2018-03-22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The results found in the literature do not allow to define objectively the indications respective for a one-step or a two-step exchange of prosthetic joint. Some criteria could help to decide for one-step exchange or two-step exchange: bacteria is/are identified, profile of the bacteria, anesthetic difficulties,..

A puncture could allow to identify the bacteria involved in the prosthetic joint infection (PJI) and an antibiotherapy for a few days can be given to the patient in order to decrease the inoculum. Then, a one-step exchange can be performed.

The purpose of this study is to describe the management of patients who had a pre-treatment before a one-step exchange of their prosthetic joint.
