Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will evaluate which body site(s) provide the best source of possible staph presence in participants undergoing total joint arthroplasty. If the pre-operative cultures indicate staph presence, an Infectious Disease specialist will be consulted for standard of medical care consultation and treatment management. Participants will be followed for 2 years post-implantation of prosthetic joint to monitor development of prosthetic joint infection.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The presence of Staph in/on a patient who will undergo total joint replacement is a risk in that the patient could go on to develop infection at the surgery site after surgery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if it is beneficial to to administer a questionnaire and obtain cultures from various body sites from patients prior to surgery and also to determine which body site(s) provide the best source of possible staph presence. If the pre operative cultures indicate staph is present, an Infectious Disease specialist will be consulted for standard of medical care consultation and treatment management. All patients scheduled to have total joint arthroplasty are eligible to participate. The research team will follow the study patients for 2 years after they undergo prosthetic joint implantation to monitor for development of prosthetic joint infection.
