Introduction

Success rate after Debridement-Irrigation, Antibiotic Therapy and Implant Retention (DAIR) for treatment of Acute Haematogenous (AH) and Early Post-surgical (EP) periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) varies widely among published studies. Prosthesis exchange is recommended to treat PJI after a failed DAIR. However, no early postoperative prognostic factors permitting to identify future failures have been described.

Aim

Identify early prognostic factor of failure after DAIR in order to propose efficient treatment before onset of chronic PJI.
