This trial compares taking antibiotics by mouth versus through an IV line for people who have an infection in their hip or knee replacement. The goal is to see if oral antibiotics work just as well as IV antibiotics after surgery to clean the infection.
This trial tests whether adding a medicine called probenecid to your regular amoxicillin treatment keeps the antibiotic working longer in your body for bone or joint infections. If eligible, you'll stay in the hospital for a few days while the study team closely monitors your treatment.
This study aims to customize anti-infection medication doses for people with bone or joint infections. The goal is to make treatment more effective and reduce side effects.
This trial tests different antibiotic types and durations, plus surgical approaches, for people with a current joint infection in a hip or knee. It aims to find the best way to treat the infection and prevent it from coming back.
This trial compares two common types of oral antibiotics to see which works better for bone infections below the knee. If you have a bone infection that needs at least 28 more days of treatment and you can take pills, this study may help find the best option for you.
This study is testing whether giving three different antibiotic combinations (instead of one) before surgery can better protect the good bacteria in your gut and reduce the chance of developing resistant bacteria. If you are having a joint replacement revision or similar surgery due to a suspected infection, participation might help improve how infections are treated.
