Evaluation of the Antibiofilmogramme Test During Orthopaedic Device-Related Infection

Conditions
Staphylococcus Aureus
Prosthetic Joint Infection
Biofilm
Registration Number
NCT03263832
Lead Sponsor
BioFilm Control
Brief Summary

This is an observational study that does not change routine care.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the correlation between the administration of an antibiotherapy able to prevent biofilm formation according to the results of the Antibiofilmogramme test, and the relapse of the infection for patient with orthopaedic device-related infection.

Detailed Description

The secondary objectives are:

A. Investigate the role of antibiogram-antibiofilmogramme concordance (in terms of S. aureus strains and prescribed antibiotics) in orthopaedic device-related infection management.

B. Investigate the capacity of S. aureus isolates to form biofilm in presence/absence of antibiotics.

C. Create an S. aureus strain collection for future ancillary studies

OBSERVATIONAL
Study Design
Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Success or treatment failureFrom surgical intervention to one year after the end of antimicrobial therapy.

Presence or absence of microbiological treatment failure confirmed by S. aureus positive clinical samples. The diagnostic of a S. aureus positive clinical sample indicated a treatment failure. Treatment success corresponded to an absence of clinical or microbiological treatment failure, or treatment failure with positive clinical sample other than S. aureus.
