First- time revision knee arthroplasty using a hinged prosthesis TEMPORAL TRENDS, INDICATIONS, AND RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH RE- REVISION USING DATA FROM THE NATIONAL JOINT REGISTRY FOR 3,855 PATIENTS

N. D. Clement et al.

Summary: The aim of this study was to identify the variables associated with time to revision, demographic details associated with revision indication, and type of prosthesis employed in first-time knee revision surgery. The study found that younger age, lower ASA grade, and specific revision indications were associated with earlier time to revision. The overall re-revision rate at ten years was 16.2%.

Reduced Infection Rate After Aseptic Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty With Extended Oral Antibiotic Protocol

Matthieu Zingg et al.

Summary: This study compared the rates of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in aseptic revision total knee arthroplasty (R-TKA) treated with extended oral antibiotic prophylaxis (EOAP) to published rates. The results showed that EOAP after aseptic R-TKA resulted in a 2-4-fold decrease in PJI rates compared to published rates, making it equivalent to primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Prophylactic Antibiofilm Activity of Antibiotic-Loaded Bone Cements against Gram-Negative Bacteria

Andrea Cara et al.

Summary: Gram-negative bacilli can cause prosthetic joint infection, and the treatment becomes challenging due to increased antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation. Loading bone cement with antibiotics can help reduce the risk of infection during arthroplasties with cemented prosthesis. The study compared the efficacy of various antibiotic-loaded bone cements in preventing biofilm formation by different strains of Gram-negative bacteria.

Epidemiology of complex bone and joint infections in France using a national registry: The CRIOAc network

Adrien Lemaignen et al.

Summary: In France, a network of reference centers was established in 2008 for the management of complex bone and joint infections, with an emphasis on previous failure, difficult-to-treat microorganisms, heavy comorbidities, or surgical procedures. A national registry was implemented in 2012 to collect decisions advised in periodic multidisciplinary meetings. The study included 27,483 individual patients, with prosthetic joint infections (PJI) representing 42% of all bone and joint infections. The most common pathogens identified were Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase-negative staphylococci, and polymicrobial infections. Treatment recommendations included debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) in 27% of cases.

Summary: This study evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of revision knee arthroplasty using rotating-hinge prostheses. Significant improvements were seen in function and self-sufficiency, but the survival rate slightly decreased.

Dual antibiotic loaded bone cement in patients at high infection risks in arthroplasty: Rationale of use for prophylaxis and scientific evidence

Christof Ernst Berberich et al.

Summary: With the increase in global arthroplasty procedures, prosthetic joint infection cases are expected to rise, emphasizing the importance of strict rules and effective preventive strategies. Prioritizing evidence-based measures such as preoperative optimization for high infection risk patients, adherence to hygiene rules, and implementation of effective antibiotic prophylaxis is crucial in countering this trend. Adjusting antibiotic prophylaxis protocols to major infection risks and focusing on local application methods like dual antibiotic-loaded bone cement in risk situations have shown advantages in reducing prosthetic joint infections.
