About this study

Official title: Prospective Study of Patients Treated for Prosthetic Hip Infection and Followed for at Least 2 Years

Data from large prospective cohort studies of prosthetic joint infections are lacking.

Aim of this study: analyzing prospectively the incidence of reinfection in patients with prosthetic hip infections who underwent surgery and received antibiotic therapy.

Hypothesis: to confirm in a large group that the incidence of reinfection after excision -synovectomy in acute prosthesis hip infection is 30% and 15% for chronic infection after exchange arthroplasty (one or two stage exchange).

Read the detailed description

Aim of the study: to analyze the incidence of reinfection in patients with prosthetic hip infection who underwent surgery and received antibiotic therapy Methods: prospective cohort study in a French referral center for osteoarticular infections from November 2002 to March 2010. Population

  • all patients who consented to participate in the study with prosthetic hip infections treated by:
  • debridement-synovectomy for acute infection or with one-stage or two-stage
  • exchange arthroplasty or resection arthroplasty for chronic infection
  • antibiotic therapy

Outcome:

  • Follow-up: minimum of 2 years
  • Events monitored: reinfection including relapse and new infection, joint revision for mechanical reasons, prosthetic hip infection related and non-related deaths

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of reinfection (relapse and new infection)

    The aim of this study was to prospectively determine the incidence of reinfection in patients with prosthetic hip infection after two years of follow up.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence and causes of mechanical revision

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Incidence and causes of death: infection or treatment related death, unrelated death

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hip Prosthesis Infection, run by Groupe Hospitalier Diaconesses Croix Saint-Simon at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of reinfection (relapse and new infection) (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01963520, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Feb 2018.
