An observational study of Knee Joint Prosthesis Infection and Flap Necrosis, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.
Trial summary
Acute and chronic infection of knee joint prosthesis can have several outcomes, the most feared of which is trans-femoral amputation. In order to save the limb while maintaining function, the management of these infections involves several specialists. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: The Contributions of the Multidisciplinary Management of TKA Infections in a Reference Center: A Retrospective Study About 52 Cases.
Acute and chronic infection of knee joint prosthesis can have several outcomes, the most feared of which is trans-femoral amputation. In order to save the limb while maintaining function, the management of these infections involves several specialists. Orthopedic surgeons are on the front line for carrying out bacteriological samples as well as for changing the material when necessary. The infectiologists coordinate this care by supervising each of the interventions by an antibiotic therapy adapted to the germs and by ensuring the occurrence of adverse events related to the treatment. Plastic surgeons intervene when the skin cover of the knee is deemed to be precarious or when there is an identified loss of substance that could affect the prognosis of the prosthesis. The main objective of our study is to evaluate the success rate of skin coverage and functional recovery for patients cured of their infection. The secondary objective is the identification of risk factors for skin coverage in this population.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
patients having had skin coverage of the kneeOther
the cutaneous cover is not always optimal to protect the prosthesis, an act of reconstructive plastic surgery is then necessary
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| patients having had skin coverage of the knee | patients having had skin coverage of the knee after or at the same time than an orthopedic surgery to treat a knee prosthesis infection Receives: Other: patients having had skin coverage of the knee |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
rate of patients with prosthesis knee infection requiring skin coverage
proportion of patients with prosthesis knee infection requiring skin coverage amaong all prosthesis knee infection
Measured: 2011-2021
