Patients >14 years of age., Stabilized fracture, even if unconsolidated., Controlled infection (absence of signs or symptoms of sepsis). Sepsis is defined as the presence of a score greater than or equal to 2 on the qSOFA or SOFA scale (Annex VII)., Early OM infection (that which occurs in the first 2 weeks after implant surgery) or delayed OM infection (that which occurs between 3 and 10 weeks after implant surgery)., Availability of antibiotics active against the isolated microorganism., Absence of bone exposure. Patients who initially had bone exposure but during the debridement surgery bonecoverage was performed by any method (skin approximation, grafting, vacuum therapy) can be included in the criteria., Signed written informed consent., If there is a possibility of pregnancy or paternity, agree to use a highly effective birth control method during the treatment phase of the trial.
Late infections (those that occur more than 10 weeks after implant surgery)., Infections of the osteosynthesis material in non-long bones., Infections of revision osteosynthesis material or occurring after previous surgeries., Patients who are not expected to be followed up for at least 1 year after completion of antibiotic treatment., Pregnant or lactating women., Patients in whom there may be drug interactions or contraindications described in the technical data sheets of the investigational drugs used in this trial, Infections due to mycobacteria, fungi and parasites (they are infections that are treated with different drugs and durations)., Patients in whom the debridement involves replacement of all the material in the same surgical time (These patients require a duration of antibiotic treatment of less than 8 weeks in all cases)., External fixative infections.
