First seen Apr 12, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study tests whether giving antibiotics directly into the bone during a standard cleaning procedure can better control joint infections after knee replacement. About 100 adults with an infected knee joint will receive this targeted antibiotic approach. The goal is to see if it reduces the chance of infection coming back and avoids the need for more major surgeries.
