About

Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) management is complex and requires prosthesis replacement when symptoms duration is greater than 30 days or debridement with modular set replacement when symptoms duration is lesser than one month. Nevertheless, the prolonged suppressive antibiotherapy (PSA) is the single treatment we can provide to high risk surgical patients and those who refuse reoperation.

There is limited data available on PSA modality, its tolerance and efficacy, this lack of data motivated us to concept a prospective study of long term patient follow up with PJI treated with prolonged suppressive antibiotherapy.

Full description

Main objective:

Quality of life assessment of patients undergoing prolonged suppressive antibiotherapy for PJI.

Secondary objectives:

  1. Depressive symptoms assessment in patients undergoing prolonged suppressive antibiotherapy for PJI.
  2. Functional assessment in patients undergoing prolonged suppressive antibiotherapy for PJI.
  3. Evaluation of PSA side effects
  4. Evaluation of nutritional status
  5. Evaluation of of PSA termination criteria

Methods:

The follow up oh this cohort will be conducted using 3 questionaries related to quality of life, joint stiffness and depressive symptoms.
