Prosthetic Joint Infections

The following set of guidelines represent a collaborative consensus from the orthopaedic, infectious diseases, microbiology, infection control and pharmacy departments at Counties Manukau Health (CMH) for the management of adult patients with suspected Periprosthetic Joint Infections (PJIs).

They are not intended for paediatric patients (please liaise with the relevant department for advice) and contain CMH specific advice.

The guidelines are “living documents” and are therefore subject to ongoing revision. Guidelines should be regularly consulted for the most recent available advice.

Feedback on guidelines is welcome. Please direct any feedback to (infectious diseases physician) or (orthopaedic surgeon).
