The incidence of developing infection in prosthetic joints remains
low after primary arthroplasty, but owing to the growing success of
joint replacement surgery as a procedure to alleviate pain and
improve mobility, infection numbers are increasing. The impact on
the patient is immense, and surgical options are challenging.
Prevention and reducing the incidence is the key to addressing this
problem. Pathways in Prosthetic Joint Infection covers the most
common incidences where the risk of PJI is elevated (such as
following revision arthroplasty), and indicates suitable approaches
to aid the improvement of outcomes. Featuring clearly-illustrated
clinical cases on the typical presentation of established and
latent infections, the microbiology profiles, assessment, and
definitive management are all highlighted. Taking a team-based
approach that includes the ortho-plastic surgery team,
physiotherapists, and microbiologists, this new book provides a
concise summary of the current literature and an essential overview
of the management options for those with PJI. Endorsed by the Royal
College of Surgeons, BAPRAS, The Vascular Society, and BASK,
Pathways in Prosthetic Joint Infection is an indispensable title
for all those working with patients who may face PJI.
