Pathogens in FRI - Do bugs matter? - An analysis of FRI studies to assess your enemy.
Journal of Orthopaedics 2024 July
Fracture-related infection (FRI) is a devasting complication for both patients and their treating Orthopaedic surgeon that can lead to loss of limb function or even amputation. The unique and unpredictable features of FRI make its diagnosis and treatment a significant challenge. It has substantial morbidity and financial implications for patients, their families and healthcare providers. In this article, we perform an in-depth and comprehensive review of FRI through recent and seminal literature to highlight evolving definitions, diagnostic and treatment approaches, focusing on common pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus , polymicrobial infections and multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDRO). Furthermore, multiple resistance mechanisms and adaptations for microbial survival are discussed, as well as modern evidence-based medical and surgical advancements in treatment strategies in combating FRI.
