A Clinico-Microbiological Study of Prosthetic Joint Infections in an Indian Tertiary Care Hospital: Role of Universal 16S rRNA Gene Polymerase Chain Reaction and Sequencing in Diagnosis

BACKGROUND: We determined the magnitude and clinico-microbiological profile of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) at a tertiary hospital. The diagnostic potential of 16S rRNA gene polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing on periprosthetic tissue samples was evaluated for the diagnosis of PJI. MA...
