ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the risk factors leading to the failure of early periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) treated by debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) combined with intra-articular injection of antibiotics.Methods:A total of 100 patients who received DAIR combined with intra-articular injection of antibiotics between January 2010 and October 2020 in the Department of Orthopaedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, were retrospectively analyzed. There were 47 males and 53 females, with an average age of 62.8±13.0 years (26-84 years). 75 patients were diagnosed as PJI after primary surgery while 25 PJI after revision or debridement, involving 41 hips and 59 knees. According to the clinical outcomes, the patients were divided into the cured group (78 cases) and the uncured group (22 cases). Risk factors were screened by univariate analysis on their gender, age, body mass index, site of infection (hip/knee), synovial white blood cell count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C reactive protein (CRP), time of infection, types of pathogenic bacteria (gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria or fungi), preoperative sinus tract and previous surgical history. For the factors with P<0.20, multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the independent risk factors. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was drawn and any cause that led to treatment failure was seen as the end point event. Calculate prosthetic survival time and 10-year survival rate. Results:The average follow-up was 59.8±40.6 months (0.3-129.0 months). The infection control rate of DAIR combined with intra-articular injection of antibiotics in the treatment of early PJI was 78% (78/100). The univariate analysis showed that the successful rate of non-fungal infection group (81%, 77/95) was significantly higher than the fungal infection group (20%, 1/5) and the successful rate of the group without previous surgical history (85.3%, 64/75) was significantly higher than that with previous surgical history (56.0%, 14/25, χ 2=7.07, P=0.008; χ 2=9.40, P=0.002). The multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that fungal infection [ OR=0.08, 95% CI(0.01, 0.79), P=0.031] and history of previous surgical intervention [ OR=0.25, 95% CI(0.09, 0.73), P=0.001] were independent risk factors for treatment failure. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the survival time of the prosthesis was 96.83±5.30 months, and the 10-year survival rate was 68.1%. Meanwhile, the survival rate of patients with fungal infection and previous surgical history was significantly lower than that of patients without fungal infection or previous surgical history, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=15.49, P<0.001; χ 2=8.91, P=0.030). Conclusion:The time of PJI, bacterial virulence and species, and preoperative inflammatory indicators had no effect on the outcome of DAIR combined with intra-articular injection of antibiotics in the treatment of early PJI. However, DAIR was not recommended for patients with a history of surgical intervention and fungal infection.
