Trial summary

According to the official recommendations, infected prosthesis can be surgically treated by one or two-stage replacement. In Strasbourg, the investigators only perform one-stage surgery, which means that the new materiel is put directly into an infected site. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Use of Probabilist Broad-spectrum β-lactam for One-stage Replacement of Infected Hip / Knee Arthroplasties: Retrospective Analysis in a Center of Reference

According to the official recommendations, infected prosthesis can be surgically treated by one or two-stage replacement. In Strasbourg, the investigators only perform one-stage surgery, which means that the new materiel is put directly into an infected site. To prevent re-infection, probabilist antibiotherapy has to be started the earlier as possible and to have the larger specter as possible. Official recommendations don't specify the best choice of antibiotherapy and let prescriptors make choice, according to the local epidemiology and patient's history.

In Strasbourg, the investigators systematically start an antibiotic against cocci gram positive: daptomycin. Sometimes, the investigators add tazocillin, a broad-spectrum β-lactam against bacillus gram negative. To determine if the investigators use the second one, they focalized on the presence of fistula or not. Indeed, enterobacteriae from gastro-intestinal tractus are also found on the skin and can move to the peri-prosthetic site if a fistula is created. The major disadvantage of this board-spectrum antibiotic is the selection and creation of resistant bacteriae, which can be responsible of failure, re-infection, or just spreading on the environnement.

The primary purpose is to evaluate retrospectively the prescription of tazocillin, judging it's necessity thanks to antibiograms performed on samples taken during surgery. The aim is to evaluate if the criteria " fistula or not " is a good one to guide the prescription of board-spectrum β-lactam.

Secondary purposes are to find the etiology of failures ( bacteriological failure or re-infection with a new pathogen), evaluate the apparition of multi-drug resistant bacteriae and infections they are responsible for, looking for others criterias which could help the investigators to choose the probablist antibiotherapy

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Oct 2019. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Cécile RONDE-OUSTAU, MD (33 3 68 76 50 62, cecile.ronde-oustau@chru-strasbourg.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Retrospective study of the use of β-lactams in infected of hip or knee prosthesis (time frame: Files analysed retrospectily from January 1st, 2018 to December 31st, 2018 will be examined). 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 11 Oct 2019.
