Periprosthetic joint infection : development of a core outcome set.
Aims: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of arthroplasty, with substantial morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, inconsistencies in outcome reporting have hindered evidence synthesis, limiting progress in understanding and management. This study aimed to develop a core outcome set (COS) for PJI to standardize outcome reporting in the literature.
Methods: A two-stage modified Delphi process was conducted to establish consensus across a range of domains. Stage 1 involved the identification of core outcomes in PJI research by an international expert panel. A patient group was also consulted to ensure that the domains were relevant to patient priorities. Stage 2 included a broader group of 55 stakeholders in an online consensus process to finalize the COS. Quantitative and qualitative data were collated to redefine the outcomes throughout the Delphi process.
Results: Following the modified two-stage Delphi process, a high level of consensus was achieved for all outcomes. The final COS included 23 outcomes across the following four domains: patient demographics and baseline characteristics; infection characteristics; surgical and treatment details; and outcomes and follow-up.
Conclusion: The developed COS provides a standardized framework for reporting outcomes in PJI research. By addressing variability and inconsistency in the literature, this COS aims to enhance comparability across studies, support robust evidence synthesis, and ultimately guide clinical decision-making.
期刊介绍:
We welcome original articles from any part of the world. The papers are assessed by members of the Editorial Board and our international panel of expert reviewers, then either accepted for publication or rejected by the Editor. We receive over 2000 submissions each year and accept about 250 for publication, many after revisions recommended by the reviewers, editors or statistical advisers. A decision usually takes between six and eight weeks. Each paper is assessed by two reviewers with a special interest in the subject covered by the paper, and also by members of the editorial team. Controversial papers will be discussed at a full meeting of the Editorial Board. Publication is between four and six months after acceptance.
