متن کاملReview article: Joint aspiration for diagnosis of periprosthetic infection.
Joint aspiration is a reliable tool for diagnosis of periprosthetic infection. There are different indications, techniques, and approaches for joint aspiration. We recommend that it be performed selectively when infection is suspected clinically. The specimens should be interpreted based on the results of the culture as well as the white cell count and differential. Specimen collection, transpo...
متن کاملDiagnosis of periprosthetic infection.
Periprosthetic infections are rare, but there is evidence to suggest that their frequency may be underestimated. No single laboratory test has perfect sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing infection. Most tests have better specificity when they are performed for patients in whom infection is suspected clinically rather than when they are used as screening tests. Screening test results that...
متن کاملThe Diagnosis of Periprosthetic Infection
Periprosthetic infection (PJI) is the most serious joint replacement complication, occurring in 0.8-1.9% of knee arthroplasties and 0.3-1.7% of hip arthroplasties. A definition of PJI was proposed in the November 2011 issue of the journal Clinical Orthopedics and Related Research. The presence of a fistula or of local inflammatory signs is indicative of PJI, but in many cases local pain is the ...
