About this study

This retrospective study aims to improve the diagnosis of PJI as well as to identify microorganisms causing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and the drug-resistant spectrum

Read the detailed description

160 patients who underwent revision or re-revision total hip or knee arthroplasty for different reasons in our institution were recruited from August 2013 to August 2016. 80 patients meet the criteria of PJI from the muscle and skeletal muscle Association (MSIS) are divided to the infection group, another 80 patients are divided into the non-infection group.

Medical and demographic data were recorded. Collected lab examinations included blood routine test, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), synovial leukocyte counts, Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve-Area Under Curve (ROC-AUC) analysis will be used to evaluate the specific and sensitivity of diagnosis index. Moreover,microorganisms isolated from periprosthetic tissues and articular fluid. Postoperatively, the prosthesis was sent for ultrasound sonication. The sonicate extraction, implant surrounding tissue and synovium were sent for microbiologic culture, and the implant-surrounding-tissue were also sent for pathological examination. The isolated strains and drug-resistance rate for each bacterium for different antibiotics were presented.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Periprosthetic Joint InfectionOther

    Periprosthetic Joint Infection is diagnosed according to the diagnosing criteria from the Workgroup of the Musculoskeletal Infection Society.

  • Non-Periprosthetic Joint InfectionOther

    PJI can not be diagnosed for the lack of clinical evidence according to the diagnosing criteria from the Workgroup of the Musculoskeletal Infection Society.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Arthropathy of Hip and Arthropathy of Knee, run by Peking University People's Hospital.

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 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Zhanglai Li (+86 17801099200, 847869561@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation the specific and sensitivity of CRP (time frame: within 4 weeks before the operation). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 Dec 2017.
