ABSTRACT
To explore whether season is a risk factor of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) and explain it with the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. This was a retrospective cohort study. Only patients who suffered from PJI within 1 month after TJA were included in the study. Occurrence of PJI was the outcome of this study. Chi-squared test and t test was used to assess differences for baseline characteristics. Chi-square test was used to analyze whether season was related to the occurrence of PJI. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between season and occurrence of PJI. The incidence of PJI in summer is significantly higher than that in winter, whether after total knee arthroplasty (Chi-square value = 6.455, P = .011) or total hip arthroplasty (Chi-square value = 6.141, P = .013). Summer was an independent risk factor for PJI (OR = 4.373, 95% confidence interval = 1.899-10.673, P = .004). To be more exact, compared to nonlate summer (19.51%), and PJI is mainly concentrated in late summer (80.49%). Late summer was an independent risk factor of PJI after TJA. The infection rate of PJI after TJA in late summer is higher than other seasons. A more thorough preoperative disinfection procedure is needed in late summer.
