简要总结
Introduction:
· Surgical site infections (SSIs) are persistent concerns in total joint arthroplasty (TJA).
· While antibiotic prophylaxis is crucial, the optimal duration remains controversial.
· This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to assess the efficacy of oral extended antibiotic prophylaxis in TJA for preventing SSIs when compared to the routine standard protocol.
· This study seeks to provide evidence for optimizing perioperative care, reducing SSIs and enhancing patient outcomes in knee arthroplasty surgery. By addressing this clinical conundrum, we hope to contribute valuable insights to perioperative protocols and ultimately improve the quality of care for TJA patients.
Aims and Objectives:
• To investigate whether extending the duration of oral antibiotic prophylaxis for 7 days in Total Joint arthroplasty - Hip and Knee reduces the incidence of peri-prosthetic joint infections (PJI) & surgical site infections (Test group) compared to standard perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (Control group).
Objectives:
• To assess 90-day complication and readmission rates among both cohorts.
• Wound complications in both cohorts.
• Need for repeat oral antibiotic within follow-up duration.
• Rates of antibiotic resistance among isolated pathogens.
• Adverse effects related to extended antibiotic use.
HYPOTHESIS:
There is no difference in the incidence of peri-prosthetic joint infections (PJI) & surgical site infections on extending the duration of oral antibiotic prophylaxis for 7 days in Total joint arthroplasty compared to standard perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis.
