NCT04304885

Brief Summary

It is not known in the literature how much sonication affects the patient's treatment. Another important issue is that the place of this method in diagnosis is not clear. The aim of this study is to contribute to the literature on this issue and to determine the sensitivity and specificity of sonication prospectively using the new definition and effect of sonication on the treatment strategy in terms of infection in patients with PJI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sensitivity

    To determine how many patients diagnosed with periprosthetic joint infection can be detected by sonication method.

    14 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The change in antibiotic treatment.

    14 days

Study Arms (1)

Sonication method

The treatment strategies of all patients will be based on the cultural results to be made by the sonication method.

Diagnostic Test: Sonication method

Interventions

Sonication methodDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Sonication dislodges adherent bacteria from explanted prosthetics by ultrasound and may improve the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Patients who have undergone primary hip and knee arthroplasty and will require revision for any reason.

You may qualify if:

  • All patients scheduled for revision arthroplasty (aseptic revision, septic revision, instability, and periprosthetic fracture)

You may not qualify if:

  • who do not accept to participate in research
  • insufficient data for new definition criteria
  • acute periprosthetic infections
