Trial design
CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding
Main objective
Scope: Efficacy, Prophylaxis
To determine in patients undergoing primary or aseptic revision TJR if:
1. A 0.35% PI irrigation solution compared to a normal saline irrigation solution reduces the risk of reoperation due to infection within 12 months of primary or aseptic revision hip or knee TJR.
2. A 0.05% chlorhexidine irrigation solution compared to a normal saline irrigation solution reduces the risk of reoperation due to infection within 12 months of primary or aseptic revision hip or knee TJR.
3. The use of local vancomycin versus no local vancomycin reduces the risk of reoperation due to infection within 12 months of primary or aseptic revision hip or knee TJR.
Secondary objectives 3
- To determine the impact of a 0.35% PI irrigation solution compared to a normal saline irrigation solution on the number of non-operative surgical site infections requiring antibiotics.
- To determine the impact of a 0.05% chlorhexidine irrigation solution compared to a normal saline irrigation solution on the number of non-operative surgical site infections requiring antibiotics.
- Patients who receive local vancomycin will have a lower rate of infection requiring reoperation compared to patients who did not receive local vancomycin.
