A multicentre evaluation and expert recommendations of use of the newly developed BioFire Joint Infection polymerase chain reaction panel

Kordo Saeed et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of the BioFire Joint Infection Panel (BJIP) for the diagnosis of septic arthritis and compared it to routine culture. The BJIP showed a higher agreement rate with culture results, detecting more positive cases and providing additional microbial information. A multidisciplinary team agreed that the BJIP could be used in patient management and potentially impact treatment choices.

Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Robin Patel

Summary: Arthroplasty-associated infection, or periprosthetic joint infection, is a rare disease that is different from native bone or joint infection. The infection involves interactions between microorganisms, the implant, and the host immune system. Even a small amount of microorganisms can cause infection, as bacteria (and sometimes fungi) adhere to and form biofilms on the arthroplasty surfaces that are resistant to antimicrobial agents and the immune system.

Molecular Diagnosis of Osteoarticular Implant-Associated Infection: Available Techniques and How We Can Use Them

Llanos Salar-Vidal et al.

Summary: Despite recent advances, microbiological diagnosis of prosthetic joint infections remains challenging. Molecular biology techniques, including multiplex PCR assays and metagenomics, have shown potential but are still experimental. A few studies have evaluated the use of these methods in clinical routine and proposed protocols. However, their interpretation requires a multidisciplinary team with experience.

An evidence-based approach to managing unexpected positive cultures in shoulder arthroplasty

Alexander J. Hodakowski et al.

Summary: Unexpected positive cultures (UPCs) are frequently found during shoulder surgery, with Cutibacterium acnes being the most common bacteria cultured. Preoperative risk factors, surgical techniques, and postoperative treatment regimens do not significantly affect the incidence of UPCs or the clinical outcomes. A standardized protocol for treatment and follow-up would decrease physician uncertainty.

Epidemiology and Economic Outcomes Associated with Timely versus Delayed Receipt of Appropriate Antibiotic Therapy among US Patients Hospitalized for Native Septic Arthritis: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Joan-Miquel Balada-Llasat et al.

Summary: Timely administration of appropriate antibiotic therapy is crucial for improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. However, initial treatment for septic arthritis is often empiric due to unknown pathogens. Clinicians need to balance selection of adequate treatment, adherence to antimicrobial stewardship, and financial constraints to optimize patient care.

The State of Microbiology Diagnostic of Prosthetic Joint Infection in Europe: An In-Depth Survey Among Clinical Microbiologists

Erlangga Yusuf et al.

Summary: This study provides an overview of common practices in microbiology diagnosis tests of Prosthetic joint infections (PJI) in Europe. The study found that there is some uniformity in sample processing and result reporting. However, variations in diagnostic tests need to be considered when interpreting and comparing clinical microbiology results.

Molecular Approach for the Laboratory Diagnosis of Periprosthetic Joint Infections

Giulia Gatti et al.

Summary: The incidence of total joint arthroplasty is increasing and is expected to exceed 4 million by 2030. As a result, the detection of infections associated with surgical interventions is also increasing, and prosthetic joint infections pose a challenging problem both clinically and economically. In recent years, the implementation of diagnostic methodologies has reduced errors and improved response time.

Summary: This study found that K. kingae is the most commonly isolated organism in pediatric septic arthritis, with only one third of cases detected on routine cultures. It is crucial to maintain a clinical suspicion for K. kingae infection in young patients presenting atypically. Routine PCR testing is recommended in these patients.

An update about molecular biology techniques to detect orthopaedic implant-related infections

Jaime Esteban et al.

Summary: Despite different criteria for diagnosing prosthetic joint infections, identifying the causing microorganism through molecular biology techniques is crucial for guiding treatment. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction methods demonstrate high specificity and sensitivity in clinical cases, and next-generation metagenomics may further enhance sensitivity while maintaining specificity. Molecular biology techniques are expected to significantly transform current microbiological diagnosis of PJI in the next five years.
