Role of Sonication in the Microbiological Diagnosis of Implant-Associated Infections: Beyond the Orthopedic Prosthesis.
Implant-associated infections are difficult-to-treat conditions associated with high morbidity, mortality and length of hospitalization. They are characterized by biofilm formation on implant surface, which makes the microbiological diagnosis difficult and requires a complete device removal for the correct management. The sonication method, which is based on the application of long-wave ultraso...

متن کاملImproved diagnosis of infection associated with osteosynthesis by use of sonication of fracture fixation implants.
Previous studies have shown that sonication fluid cultures from removed orthopedic devices improved the microbiological diagnosis of orthopedic implant-associated infections; however, few of these investigations have applied sonication to the removed fracture fixation devices to evaluate its utility for the diagnosis of osteosynthesis-associated infection (OAI). We compared sonication fluid to ...
متن کاملSonication technique improves microbiological diagnosis in patients treated with antibiotics before surgery for prosthetic joint infections.
Microbiological diagnosis is crucial for the appropriate management of implant-associated orthopedic infections (IAOIs). Sonication of biomaterials for microbiological diagnosis has not yet been introduced in routine clinical practice. Aim of this study was to describe the advantages and feasibility of this procedure in the clinical setting. We prospectively studied 56 consecutive patients unde...
