NCT06402591

Brief Summary

The goal of this randomized control trial is to investigate the superiority of 5 days (extended) versus a single dose of cefazolin prophylaxis in revision arthroplasty of the hip and knee. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

  • Is an extended regimen compared to a single dose of cefazolin associated with an increased infection-free implant survival within one year after index revision arthroplasty of the hip or knee?
  • What are the incidence, risk factors, treatment outcome and prognosis of surgical site infections and periprosthetic joint infection during follow-up?
  • What is the safety and tolerance of the antimicrobial prophylaxis regimens used?
  • What are the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of micro-organisms causing PJI during follow-up?
  • What is the patient' physical performance and satisfaction of subjects within 1 year after the index revision arthroplasty, using patient related outcome measurements (PROMS)? \[question 2\] Participants will \[describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, treatments they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items\]. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare \[insert groups\] to see if \[insert effects\].

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Success rate of revision arthroplasty

    1. Implant retention during follow-up, 2. No 'definite infection' score for PJI according to the Philadelphia consensus definition 2018 during follow-up 3. No PJI based on positive culture of a single synovial fluid or tissue sample yielding a high virulence micro-organism (S. aureus, Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp, Acinetobacter spp, Candida spp) during follow-up. 4. No more than 4 consecutive weeks of systemic antimicrobial therapy for any reason during follow-up.

    1 year after revision arthroplasty

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • incidence surgical site infections

    1 year after revision arthroplasty

  • incidence periprosthetic joint infection

    1 year after revision arthroplasty

  • resistance rate of causative of SSI/PJI to cefazolin

    1 year after revision arthroplasty

  • The number of repeated surgeries.

    1 year after revision arthroplasty

  • Reason repeated surgery

    1 year after revision arthroplasty

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 120 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Aged 18 years or older.
  • Planned revision arthroplasty of the hip or knee prosthesis (index revision arthroplasty), with revision of one or more fixed components.

You may not qualify if:

  • If the index revision arthroplasty has been cancelled.
  • Revision of single mobile parts only.
  • PJI on baseline, based on 'definite infection' score according to the Philadelphia consensus definition 2018
  • PJI on baseline, based on a positive culture of a single synovial fluid or tissue sample yielding a high virulence micro-organism (S. aureus, Enterobacterales, Pseudomonas spp, Acinetobacter spp, Candida spp).
  • Contraindication to cefazolin:
  • a. Previous allergic reaction according to the criteria in Appendix A. b. Severe kidney disease defined as eGFR \<10 ml/min. f. Antimicrobial treatment within 3 days prior to index revision arthroplasty. g. Subjects who are currently enrolled in investigational immunosuppressive drug trials.
  • h. Subjects who are unable to provide informed consent.
