One-stage Exchange Arthroplasty for Chronic Prosthetic Joint Infections

Completed
Conditions
Prosthetic Joint Infection
One-step Exchange
Exchange of Prosthetic Joint
Registration Number
NCT03473392
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

The results found in the literature do not allow to define objectively the indications respective for a one-step or a two-step exchange of prosthetic joint. Some criteria could help to decide for one-step exchange or two-step exchange: bacteria is/are identified, profile of the bacteria, anesthetic difficulties,..

A puncture could allow to identify the bacteria involved in the prosthetic joint infection (PJI) and an antibiotherapy for a few days can be given to the patient in order to decrease the inoculum. Then, a one-step exchange can be performed.

The purpose of this study is to describe the management of patients who had a pre-treatment before a one-step exchange of their prosthetic joint.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
bacterial epidemiologyat the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption)

This outcome will describe the bacterial epidemiology identified with a punction, the antibiotherapy used for pre-treatment, the characteristics of patients and the PJI.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Treatment failureat the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption)

Treatment failure is defined by local clinical and/or microbiological relapse; and/or need for additional surgery; death of septic origin
