Clinical Trials

The primary aims of this study are to determine whether extended oral prophylactic antibiotics after primary total joint arthropasty (TJA) decreases the incidence of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in a high-risk patient population, and to determine whether extended oral prophylactic antibiotics after primary TJA decreases the incidence of surgical wound complications in a high-risk patient population.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of patients who received an Allograft-Prosthesis Composite for Revision of Catastrophic Failure of Ulnar Component of Total Elbow Arthroplasty.

The purpose of this study is to assess the outcome of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) treated with various therapeutic regimens using a prospective cohort study.

The purpose of this study is to perform independent analysis of optimal synovial fluid diagnostic cutoffs for acute periprosthetic joint infection of the knee.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate two different standards of care to see if the single Double Debridement, Antibiotics and Implant Retention (DAIR) protocol is non-inferior to planned double-DAIR protocols for acute Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI) after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) or  total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Additionally, effectiveness of treatment in terms of infection eradication and cost comparisons will be addressed.
