Abstract
Purpose of review: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) is a commonly performed procedure to treat degenerative conditions of the shoulder. With its growing utilization, techniques to reliably diagnose and treat prosthetic joint infection (PJI) have become increasingly important. In this review we outline the current research and prevention methods of prosthetic joint infection in rTSA. This includes preoperative considerations, intraoperative, and postoperative treatment algorithms.
Recent findings: There is currently no established standardized protocol for preoperative infection prevention or post operative management. However, recent studies have identified risk factors for infection, as well as successful prevention techniques that can be implemented to minimize infection risk. Although there is no standardized protocol currently utilized to diagnose and treat shoulder PJI, we outline a potential set of preventative measures and postoperative management strategies that clinicians can use to properly diagnose and treat patients with this difficult condition.
期刊介绍:
This journal intends to review the most significant recent developments in the field of musculoskeletal medicine. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by expert world-renowned authors, the journal aims to serve all those involved in the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of musculoskeletal-related conditions.
We accomplish this aim by appointing authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as rehabilitation of the knee and hip, sports medicine, trauma, pediatrics, health policy, customization in arthroplasty, and rheumatology. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field, and an Editorial Board of more than 20 diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.
