Periprosthetic hip joint infection Periprosthetic knee joint infection research hub

Evaluation of the clinical implementation of biofilm susceptibility to antibiotics using Minimum Biofilm Eradication Concentration (MBEC) in addition to Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) to guide the treatment of periprosthetic joint infections; a prospective randomized clinical trial

This study looks at how best to treat infections around artificial hip or knee joints. It compares standard test results with a new test to see if combining them helps doctors choose better antibiotics and leads to fewer repeat infections or surgeries.
