Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a serious and catastrophic complication after hip or knee arthroplasty. With aging population increasing, more patients will undergo hip or knee arthroplasty. Studies have shown that the risk for PJI following arthroplasty is different in different populations.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the risk factors for PJI after hip or knee arthroplasty in Mainland of China through a meta-analysis, thereby providing reference for the prevention and control of postoperative PJI.
METHODS: A computer-based search of WanFang, CNKI, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Cochrane, Embase and Medline databases was performed and the literatures concerning the risk factors for PJI after hip or knee arthroplasty in Mainland of China published before September 2016 were collected by manual retrieval and retrospective approach. All the literatures were screened based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, followed by data extraction and analyzed on Stata 12.0 software.
RESULTS AND CONLUSION: (1) Finally 14 literatures were included, including 417 patients with PJI. (2) The results of the meta-analysis showed that the risk factors for PJI after hip or knee arthroplasty including the complication of diabetic mellitus, long-term use of steroids, long operation time (> 90 minutes), age (> 65 years), and history of hip or knee surgery. (3) To conclude, PJI after hip or knee arthroplasty is related to multiple factors, so physicians should pay attention to these factors to reduce the incidence of PJI.
