dc.description.abstractSteady increase in primary total hip replacement and total knee replacement in Ukraine and worldwide inevitably leads to corresponding increase in absolute incidence of their complications, including periprosthetic infection (PPI). Its frequency has been reported lately from 0.5% to 3.0%. In absolute numbers it means hundreds and thousands of patients per year. Patients with surgical site infection are 60% more likely to stay in an intensive care unit, 5 times more likely to readmit to the hospital, and have a double mortality rate compared to patients without surgical site infection. PPI does not only negate the effect of the surgery, but often puts the limb or even the patient’s survival at risk. This necessitates constant search of new or improved ways to prevent and to treat PPI. The intraoperative measures for prophylaxis of infection after total hip or knee replacement were substantiated, namely the effect of laminar clean air in the operating room. Introducing laminar clean air caused a decrease in total microbial count of the air by 60 times, and a decrease in particular matter > 0.3 μm (PM0.3) count by 7289 times (p<0.001), which was associated with a shortening of mean postoperative hospital stay from 11.10±4.01 to 8.64±2.84, a decrease in percentage of patients who spent over 14 days in hospital after surgery from 7.3% to 2.2%, and a decrease in infection rate after total hip or knee replacement from 3.3% to 1.1%. Improved technique of two stage exchange arthroplasty of the hip using the designed antibiotic impregnated cement spacers made intraoperatively with the designed metallic molds was used in 49 patients with periprosthetic infection after total hip replacement. Infection eradication and good functional results were achieved in 89.5%. Mean Harris Hip Score at follow up was 87.18±6.44. Improved technique of two stage knee revision using the designed articulating antibiotic impregnated cement spacers was used in 20 patients with infected total knee replacement. Infection control and good functional results were achieved in 84.2%. At follow up, mean Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score was 67.9±6.2, mean Knee Society Score was 72.8±2.7.en_US
