简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if metal patch testing in metal allergic patients is useful for predicting the development of allergic skin disease or systemic symptoms in patients who recieve a metal orthopedic implant.
详细描述
This prospective cohort study will enroll patients with a history of metal allergy who require implantation of a metal orthopedic device. Patients will be followed for one year after surgery to determine if any symptoms including rash, itch, joint pain, joint swelling, and/or joint failure develop post implantation.
