ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study aimed to identify the risk factors, in particular the use of surgical helmet systems (SHSs), for prosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Data recorded by the New Zealand Surgical Site Infection Improvement Programme (SSIIP) and the New Zealand Joint Registry (NZJR) were combined and analyzed.METHODS:
Primary TKA procedures performed between July 2013 and June 2018 that were recorded by both the SSIIP and NZJR were analyzed. Two primary outcomes were measured (1) PJI within 90 days as recorded by the SSIIP and (2) revision TKA for deep infection within 6 months as recorded by the NZJR. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors for both outcomes with results considered significant at P < .05.RESULTS:
A total of 19,322 primary TKAs were recorded by both databases in which 97 patients had a PJI within 90 days as recorded by the SSIIP (0.50%), and 90 patients had a revision TKA for deep infection within 6 months (0.47%) as recorded by the NZJR. An SHS was associated with a lower rate of PJI (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 0.50, P = .008) and revision for deep infection (adjusted OR = 0.55, P = .022) than conventional gowning. Male sex (adjusted OR = 2.6, P < .001) and an American Society of Anesthesiologists score >2 were patient risk factors for infection (OR = 2.63, P < .001 for PJI and OR = 1.75, P = .017 for revision for deep infection).CONCLUSION:
Using contemporary data from the SSIIP and NZJR, the use of the SHS was associated with a lower rate of PJI after primary TKA than conventional surgical gowning. Male sex and a higher American Society of Anesthesiologists score continue to be risk factors for infection.Palavras-chave
