Biomarkers predicting success of two-stage revision for joint infection
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at whether certain biomarkers can predict how well patients do after a two-stage revision surgery for a joint infection. If you have a joint replacement that got infected and need this surgery, you might be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have an infected joint replacement diagnosis
- You are having surgery to treat the infection
- You can be followed for at least 12 months after surgery
- You agree to participate and sign a consent form

This study is testing a new, advanced lab test that can quickly identify exactly which bacteria are causing a joint implant infection. The goal is to help doctors choose the right antibiotics and improve treatment success.
This trial tests if a contrast agent used in ultrasound can help surgeons see pockets of infection around knee implants during revision surgery. It may help doctors do a better job cleaning out the infection.
This study looks at how antibiotic treatment (especially the course length and approach) relates to infection control and results after a two-step surgery for joint infections. If you’ve had a spacer placed, finished at least 6 weeks of antibiotics, and then had the second surgery, the research team may want to follow your outcomes over time.
This study is for people who have had a joint replacement and may have an infection around it, or for people getting their first joint replacement. It looks at fluid from the joint to help doctors diagnose infections more accurately.
This study looks at people who need a second (revision) surgery on a large joint replacement like a hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, or elbow because of a suspected or confirmed infection. The goal is to learn more about these infections and improve care.
This trial tests whether taking probiotics can help prevent another infection in people who have had a hip or knee replacement that became infected. If you are scheduled for revision surgery due to an infection, this study may be a good fit.
