With an ageing population the number of patients undergoing total joint replacement surgery is rapidly increasing. Surgical site infections are one of the most devastating complications of this surgery and are associated with patient suffering and significant healthcare costs. This research aims to identify those patients at greatest risk of infection and to investigate strategies to aid clinical judgment for early diagnosis of surgical site infection.

随着人口老龄化，接受全关节置换手术的患者数量正在迅速增加。手术部位感染是该手术最具破坏性的并发症之一，与患者痛苦和重大医疗保健费用相关。本研究旨在确定感染风险最大的患者，并探讨帮助临床判断手术部位感染早期诊断的策略。
