The Incidence and Risk Factors of Early Periprosthetic Joint Infections

Periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) represent major complications in arthroplasty, contributing to increased patient morbidity and imposing substantial financial burdens. Meticulous surveillance of PJI occurrences and identification of associated risk factors is imperative for accurately gauging the incidence rates and implementing proactive infection control measures. This study aimed to ascertain the early incidence of PJI and elucidate the key risk factors involved in its occurrence.
