Shoulder Arthropathy Associated With Other Conditions, Shoulder Arthritis
Microcurrent Dressing to Treat Infections, Before, During and After Surgery
Deep periprosthetic infection following total joint arthroplasty is a major complication. Although it only occurs in a small percentage of patients (~1%), it results in substantial morbidity and a decline in functional outcome.
