Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is a common procedure that improves the quality of life for severe arthritis patients. The rising demand for TJA places enormous financial strain on the world's healthcare systems, which is exacerbated by postoperative readmissions for complications such as periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine if asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) increases infection risk. METHODS We conducted searches in three databases: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Screening steps have been carried out according to PRISMA guidelines. The study focused on patients who had undergone TJA and exhibited ASB. Two reviewers independently screened, assessed quality, and extracted data. Meta-analysis used Mantel-Haenszel method. RESULTS Following full-text screening, 12 studies were deemed eligible for inclusion in the systematic review, encompassing a total of 42,592 patients. A heightened occurrence of PJI was observed among TJA patients with ASB in comparison to controls (OR [95%CI] = 3.47 [1.42-8.44]). However, microorganisms responsible for the PJIs differed from those identified in the urine cultures of ASB. Additionally, analyses indicate that preoperative antibiotic treatment for ASB does not significantly affect the subsequent risk of PJI (OR [95% CI] = 1.00 [0.42-2.39]). Unlike surgical site infection (SSI), which did not show a difference in the rate of occurrence between the two groups, TJA patients with ASB were more likely to experience superficial wound infection (OR [95%CI] = 3.81 [2.02-7.21]). CONCLUSION This review and meta-analysis confirm that ASB correlate with heightened risks of PJI and superficial infection in TJA patients. However, no relationship was found between ASB and PJI microorganisms which raise doubts about the role of ASB microorganisms as the direct cause of infection following TJA.

A systematic review and meta-analysis. Tzu Chi Med J 2024; 36:275-283. [PMID: 38993822 PMCID: PMC11236074 DOI: 10.4103/tcmj.tcmj_309_23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a significant issue in orthopedic surgery. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) have been identified as potential causes of PJI; however, evidence is inconclusive. Understanding these relationships is critical for improving therapy and patient outcomes. A systematic review was performed by conducting searches from PubMed, EBSCO, ProQuest, and manual searching with adherence to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis 2020 guideline. Studies that reported UTI/ASB and PJI were included. Meta-analysis was conducted using a random-effects model using RevMan 5.4 software. A total of 14 studies were included with UTIs and ASB showed an overall association with increased risk of PJI (odds ratio [OR]: 1.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.14-2.99, P = 0.01). However, subgroup analysis for UTIs and ASB was not significant. Further analysis of UTIs in total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgery showed a significant association (OR: 1.76, 95% CI: 1.57-1.96) with PJI. Preoperative UTIs timing between 0 and 2 weeks before surgery showed an increased risk of PJI (OR: 1.45, 95% CI: 1.35-1.55). Antibiotic treatment in ASB did not significantly impact PJI rates. Urine and PJI sample cultures in four studies showed no correlation of microorganisms between the two sites. According to recent evidence, a statistically significant association was found between UTIs and PJI in patients who underwent THA surgery. However, ASB did not yield significant results in relation to PJI. These results should be supported by larger and well-designed studies to make proper clinical suggestion in future. For further research, it is recommended to adopt standardized criteria for outcome measurement and to involve larger sample sizes to enhance the reliability and generalizability of findings.

Elimination of Routine Urinalysis before Elective Orthopaedic Surgery Reduces Antibiotic Utilization without Impacting Catheter-associated Urinary Tract Infection or Surgical Site Infection Rates. Hip Pelvis 2021; 33:225-230. [PMID: 34938692 PMCID: PMC8654593 DOI: 10.5371/hp.2021.33.4.225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2021] [Revised: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Routine preoperative urinalysis has been the standard of care for the orthopedic population for decades, regardless of symptoms. Studies have demonstrated antibiotic overuse and low concordance between bacteria cultured from the surgical wound and the urine. Testing and treatment of asymptomatic urinary tract colonization before total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is unnecessary and increases patient risk. We investigated reducing antibiotic use by (1) modifying testing algorithms to target patients at risk, (2) modifying reflex to culture criteria, and (3) providing treatment guidelines. Materials and Methods A pre-post study was conducted to determine identify the impact of eliminating universal urinalysis prior to TJA on surgical site infection (SSI) and catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) rates and number of antibiotic prescriptions. Patients who underwent primary hip or knee TJA or spinal fusions from February 2016 to March 2018 were included. Patient data was collected for pre- and post-practice change period (February 2016-October 2016 and August 2017-March 2018). Patient demographics, urinalysis results, cultures, and prescriptions were analyzed retrospectively from every tenth chart in the pre-period and prospectively on all patients in the post-period. Results A total of 4,663 patients were studied. There was a 96% decrease in urinalyses performed (P<0.0001), and a 93% reduction rate in antibiotic utilization (P<0.001). No significant difference in SSI and CAUTI rates was observed (P>0.05). Conclusion The elimination of routine urinalysis before orthopedic surgery resulted in a reduction in antibiotic utilization with no significant change in the SSI or CAUTI rates. Cost savings resulted from reduced antibiotic usage.

[PMID: 34487091 PMCID: PMC8477118 DOI: 10.23750/abm.v92i4.10995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2020] [Accepted: 12/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Background and aim: There are no gold standard markers to estimate the risk of developing periprosthetic infections. Our aim is to compare the risks of periprosthetic infection in patients with THA and THA and to investigate the predictive significance of the CRP / albumin ratio. Methods: This is a retrospective study containing data from 241 osteoarthritis patients and 19 patients with periprosthetic infections who underwent TKA and THA in our hospital from January 2014 to January 2019.12 risk factors(CRP/ albumin, albumin, CRP, age, gender, BMI, DM, ASA, nasal culture, urine culture, hospital stay, operation time) were analyzed. Results: In the binary logistic regression model and multivariate regression analysis, the rate of CRP / albumin was 17.161 times higher than the patients with ≤0.16 cut-off value. (CRP / albumin ratio (odds ratio (OR) = 17.16, 95% CI: 1.55-189.03, P: 0.02). High BMI increased the risk of periprosthetic infection 1.3 times. Nasal bacterial colonization (OR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.868-1.38, P: 0.7) and bacterium in urine (OR = 0.502, 95% CI: 0.07-3.598, P: 0.703) did not pose a significant risk for periprosthetic infection. Conclusion: According to our findings, the CRP / albumin ratio has a more prognostic capacity than other risks in determining the risk of periprosthetic infection for total joint arthroplasty. CRP / albumin ratio is a cheap and easy to apply marker. Routine urine and nasal bacteria screening is not required before total joint arthroplasty.

Abstract
Background/aim Oral antibiotics are usually used to treat asymptomatic bacteriuria during the perioperative period of joint replacement. However, there is no unified conclusion as to whether asymptomatic bacteriuria causes infection around joint prostheses, and the efficacy of antibiotics is unknown. Materials and methods We systematically searched PubMed, CNKI, Ovid, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, manual research, and references of relevant articles up to January 1, 2020, to identify and compare observational studies. The Cochrane systematic review method was used, and Review Manager 5.3 software was used for analysis. Results Nine articles were included in the analysis, involving 29,844 cases of joint arthroplasty and 2366 cases of asymptomatic bacteriuria. Periprosthetic joint infection had a significantly higher incidence in the asymptomatic bacteriuria group than in the nonasymptomatic bacteriuria group (Odds Ratio: OR = 3.15, 95% CI: 1.23–8.02, P = 0.02). Seven of the nine articles reported the use of antibiotics for treating perioperative asymptomatic bacteriuria and there was no significant difference in the incidence of periprosthetic joint infection between the two groups (OR = 1.64, 95% CI: 0.84–3.23, P = 0.15). Conclusion The occurrence of asymptomatic bacteriuria in the perioperative period of joint arthroplasty is a risk factor for periprosthetic joint infection, and the use of antibiotics for asymptomatic bacteriuria does not change the rate of incidence.

Periprosthetic Joint Infection Prophylaxis in the Elderly after Hip Hemiarthroplasty in Proximal Femur Fractures: Insights and Challenges. Antibiotics (Basel) 2021; 10:antibiotics10040429.

Abstract
We review antibiotic and other prophylactic measures to prevent periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after hip hemiarthroplasty (HHA) surgery in proximal femoral fractures (PFFs). In the absence of specific guidelines, those applied to these individuals are general prophylaxis guidelines. Cefazolin is the most widely used agent and is replaced by clindamycin or a glycopeptide in beta-lactam allergies. A personalized antibiotic scheme may be considered when colonization by a multidrug-resistant microorganism (MDRO) is suspected. Particularly in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization or a high prevalence of MRSA-caused PJIs a glycopeptide with cefazolin is recommended. Strategies such as cutaneous decolonization of MDROs, mainly MRSA, or preoperative asymptomatic bacteriuria treatment have also been addressed with debatable results. Some areas of research are early detection protocols in MDRO colonizations by polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR), the use of alternative antimicrobial prophylaxis, and antibiotic-impregnated bone cement in HHA. Given that published evidence addressing PJI prophylactic strategies in PFFs requiring HHA is scarce, PJIs can be reduced by combining different prevention strategies after identifying individuals who will benefit from personalized prophylaxis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Antibiotic prophylaxis is routinely used in the surgical management of proximal femur fractures. The role of bacterial colonization of the skin and urine in the development of deep surgical site infections (SSI) is yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the role of previous skin and urine colonization in the development of deep SSI after a proximal femoral fracture surgery. METHODS We conducted a prospective observational study in 326 patients > 64 years old, who were scheduled to surgery. Cultures from skin samples of the surgical site and from urine were performed prior to the procedure, and cefazoline was administered as prophylaxis. RESULTS Skin microbiota was isolated in 233 (71.5%) cases; 8 (2.5%) samples were positive for other bacteria, and 85 (26%) were negative. Of 236 urine samples, 168 were negative or contaminated (71.2%), and 68 (28.8%) were positive, being 58/236 for Enterobacterales (24.6%). Acute deep SSI were diagnosed in nine out of 326 patients (2.7%), and two (22%) were infected by Gram-negative bacilli. Of the 9 cases, normal skin microbiota was isolated in 7 (78%), and the remaining two were negative. Seven cases had negative or contaminated urine cultures, and the one with E. coli did not correlate with SSI bacteria. CONCLUSION In our elderly hip fracture population, most patients harbored normal skin microbiota, and Enterobacterales urine cultures were positive in one-quarter of cases. There was no relationship between skin colonization, urine culture, and deep SSI. We therefore do not believe that our patients would benefit from modifying the current antibiotic prophylaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a serious complication after total joint arthroplasty, and prevention is of great importance. The genitourinary tract is a potential source of bacterial seeding and one that can be easily managed. Despite little supportive evidence, routine urine screening and subsequent treatment before elective surgery in patients without symptoms has found its way into clinical practice in many countries. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to ascertain whether asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) is a risk factor for PJI and if so, whether preoperative antibiotic treatment is effective in reducing its risk. METHODS PubMed, Ovid Medline, and Cochrane databases were searched using a systematic strategy. Selection of papers was exclusive to include only those which offered information about PJI rate specifically in patients with or without asymptomatic abnormal urinalysis or bacteriuria and/or information on whether ASB patients were preoperatively treated with antibiotics or not to be included in the analysis. RESULTS Six-hundred sixty-three papers were screened, and 10 papers were ultimately included (28,588 patients). Results show an increased risk of developing PJI among ASB patients (odds ratio = 3.64, 95% confidence interval = 1.40-9.42). However, most PJI microorganisms are unrelated to those previously found in the urine and preoperative antibiotic therapy does not influence PJI risk (odds ratio = 0.98, 95% confidence interval = 0.39-2.44). CONCLUSION Routine urinary screening prior to elective total joint arthroplasty and treatment of asymptomatic patients is not recommended.

The effect of preoperative oral antibiotic use on the risk of periprosthetic joint infection after primary knee or hip replacement: a retrospective study with a 1-year follow-up. Clin Microbiol Infect 2019; 25:1021-1025. [PMID: 30625412 DOI: 10.1016/j.cmi.2018.12.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2018] [Revised: 12/20/2018] [Accepted: 12/25/2018] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Antibiotics are used for various reasons before elective joint replacement surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate patients' use of oral antibiotics before joint replacement surgery and how this affects the risk for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). METHODS Patients having a primary hip or knee replacement in a tertiary care hospital between September 2002 and December 2013 were identified (n = 23 171). Information on oral antibiotic courses purchased 90 days preoperatively and patients' chronic diseases was gathered. Patients with a PJI in a 1-year follow-up period were identified. The association between antibiotic use and PJI was examined using a multivariable logistic regression model and propensity score matching. RESULTS One hundred and fifty-eight (0.68%) cases of PJI were identified. In total, 4106 (18%) joint replacement operations were preceded by at least one course of antibiotics. The incidence of PJI for patients with preoperative use of oral antibiotics was 0.29% (12/4106), whereas for patients without antibiotic use it was 0.77% (146/19 065). A preoperative antibiotic course was associated with a reduced risk for subsequent PJI in the multivariable model (OR 0.40, 95% CI 0.22-0.73). Similar results were found in the propensity score matched material (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.18-0.65). CONCLUSIONS The use of oral antibiotics before elective joint replacement surgery is common and has a potential effect on the subsequent risk for PJI. Nevertheless, indiscriminate use of antibiotics before elective joint replacement surgery cannot be recommended, even though treatment of active infections remains an important way to prevent surgical site infections.

Relationship Between Staphylococcus aureus Carriage and Surgical Site Infections Following Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty in the South Asian Population: Protocol for a Prospective Cohort Study. JMIR Res Protoc 2018; 7:e10219. [PMID: 29875091 PMCID: PMC6283255 DOI: 10.2196/10219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2018] [Revised: 04/22/2018] [Accepted: 04/24/2018] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Surgical site infections following total hip or knee arthroplasties have a reported rate of 0.49%-2.5% and can cause significant morbidity as well as tripling the cost of health care expenses. Both methicillin sensitive and methicillin resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus surgical site infections have been established as a major risk factor for postoperative surgical site infections. S. aureus colonizes the nose, axillae, and perineal region in up to 20%-30% of individuals. Although the literature has reported a higher prevalence of methicillin resistant S. aureus in the South Asian population, routine preoperative screening and prophylaxis have not yet been implemented. Objective The primary objective of our study is to identify the relationship between preoperative colonization status of S. aureus and incidence of postoperative surgical site infections in patients undergoing following total hip and knee arthroplasties. As part of the secondary objectives of this study, we will also investigate patient characteristics acting as risk factors for S. aureus colonization as well as the outcomes of total hip and knee arthroplasty patients which are affected by surgical site infections. Methods This prospective cohort study will comprise of screening all patients older than 18 years of age admitted to the Aga Khan University Hospital for a primary total hip or knee arthroplasty for preoperative colonization with S. aureus. The patients will be followed postoperatively for up to one year following the surgery to assess the incidence of surgical site infections. The study duration will be 2 years (March 2018 to March 2020). For the purpose of screening, pooled swabs will be taken from the nose, axillae, and groin of each patient and inoculated in a brain heart infusion, followed by subculture onto mannitol salt agar and sheep blood agar. For methicillin resistant S. aureus identification, a cefoxitin disk screen will be done. Data will be analyzed using SPSS v23 and both univariate and multivariate regression analysis will be conducted. Results Data collection for this study will commence at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Pakistan during March 2018. Conclusions This study will not only estimate the true burden caused by S. aureus in the population under study but will also help identify the patients at a high risk of surgical site infections so that appropriate interventions, including prophylaxis with antibiotics such as muciprocin ointment or linezolid, can be made. Given the differences in lifestyle, quality, and affordability of health care and the geographical variation in patterns of antibiotic resistance, this study will contribute significantly to providing incentive for routine screening and prophylaxis for S. aureus including methicillin resistant S. aureus colonization in the South Asian population.
