Summary
This study aims to improve how doctors diagnose infections in patients with broken bones around joint replacements. Currently, there are no clear guidelines to help determine when an infection is present, making treatment decisions difficult. By studying how often infections are found through lab tests and identifying factors that predict infection, the investigators hope to create better ways to diagnose and care for these patients.
