Short summary
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a complication of total joint arthroplasty, and treatment failure rates are still quite high. This study has developed a novel rabbit model of PJI that provides an opportunity to introduce treatments during ongoing infection, with readouts including a quantifiable method to assess biofilm coverage on implants via scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
