Antibiotic utilisation in primary and revision total hip replacement patients: A registry linkage cohort study of 106 253 patients using the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry

Abstract: Purpose: Infection is a major complication following joint replacement (JR) surgery.However, little data exist regarding antibiotic utilisation following primary JR and how use changes with subsequent revision surgery. This study aimed to examine variation in antibiotic utilisation rates before and after hip replacement surgery in those revised for infection, revised for other reasons and those without revision.Methods: This retrospective cohort analysis used linked data from the Australian Orthopaedic Associa… Show more

“…No studies have explored these changes in treatment among Danish KA patients. An Australian study [22] investigating PJI following total hip arthroplasty reported elevated antibiotic utilization both preceding and succeeding the initial hip surgery among patients who underwent subsequent PJI revision, as opposed to patients who did not undergo revision or who underwent revision for aseptic causes. This observation suggests a potential association between perioperative antibiotic usage and the risk of PJI revision, although it is important to acknowledge the possibility that bias by indication influenced these findings.…”
