Low-grade infection after total knee replacement (TKR) is generally caused by methicillin-sensitive staphylococci, streptococci and anaerobic cocci. Diagnosis of these low-grade infections is challenging and treatment controversial. The best management of low-grade infections following TKR is still a ...
The incidence of infection after total knee replacement (TKR) has been reported variously between 0.4% to 2% in the current literature. As the numbers of TKR procedures are increasing annually, so are the numbers of prosthetic joint infections. Although the incidence of infection has been dramatica...
Infection as complication of medical careRisk FactorsSurgical aspects危险因素膝Surgical site infection (SSI) after total knee replacement (TKR) is a devastating complication. We performed a retrospective study of all consecutive TKRs performed during a 2-y period. Surgical site infection (SSI) was ...
demonstrated a longer operative time related to surgical site infection in TKR [22]. The result from this study was different from previous literature because the PTOA group mainly came from the ligamentous PTOA (n=104; 76.5%), which only had a small surgical scar from a previous ligament...
A retrospective analysis of 6489 patients who underwent total knee replacement (TKR) between 1993 and 1999 assessed the association between the duration of the surgical procedure and the risk of postoperative infection. One hundred thirteen infected patients were matched with 236 controls, and nominal ...
Discussion:Primary TKR is a rewarding surgery,as far as the patient satisfaction and the functional outcome are concerned. But infection remains as an unsolved misery, in any set up. The average rate of infection after primary TKR is 2% even in the best set up. Any efforts aimed at ...
Use of air suits in the operating room further minimizes the rate of infection [16]. Minimizing the operating room traffic also an important factor to be considered. 4. Conclusion Identifying SSIs is multidimensional. Since our 2 infected cases after TKR occurred after discharge, this highlights ...

21.1.2Biomechanics of TKR Biomechanicsofkneejoint is a key factor to improve both function and survival of TKR. Accurate knowledge of in vivo kinematic and kinetic of TKR is important to understand the complexity of knee joint mechanics after surgery. Although thebiomechanicsand kinematics of TKR ...
