New antibiotic combo tested to fight dangerous joint infections
NCT ID NCT07313215
Summary
This study is testing whether adding the antibiotic rifampin to standard antibiotic treatment works better to control infections that occur around artificial joints (like hips or knees) after surgery. It will involve 428 patients across multiple hospitals who have these infections caused by staph bacteria. After a surgical cleaning procedure, patients will be randomly assigned to receive either standard antibiotics alone or standard antibiotics plus rifampin for three months, and then followed for at least two years to see which group has better infection control.
