Short summary
The desirability of outcome ranking (DOOR) combines joint function, infection cure and mortality into one outcome. Using the DOOR, we describe patient outcomes after prosthetic joint infection (PJI) treatment; moreover, debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) is compared with two-stage exchange. Infections were classified as early (≤ 90 d post-arthroplasty) or late (> 90 d post-arthroplasty). For early PJI, DAIR was superior to two-stage exchange, whereas two-stage revision was superior to DAIR for late PJI.
