== Overview ==
Common risk factors that predisposes septic arthritis include [[rheumatoid arthritis]], [[Prosthetic|prosthetic joint]] or [[joint replacement]] and skin infections. Other risk factors  may include recent history of [[bacteremia]], [[cirrhosis]],[[chronic kidney disease]],[[hypogammaglobulinemia]],[[systemic lupus erythematosis]], [[gout]], [[pseudogout|psuedogout]], and [[charcot joint|charcot's arthropathy]].

Septic arthritis may be seen at any age. In children, it occurs most often in those younger than 3 years. The hip is often the site of infection in infants. Septic arthritis is uncommon from age 3 to [[adolescence]]. Children with septic arthritis are more likely than adults to be infected with [[Streptococcus|Group B streptococcus]] or [[Haemophilus influenza]], if they have not been vaccinated.

Overview

Common risk factors that predisposes septic arthritis include rheumatoid arthritis, prosthetic joint or joint replacement and skin infections. Other risk factors may include recent history of bacteremia, cirrhosis,chronic kidney disease,hypogammaglobulinemia,systemic lupus erythematosis, gout, psuedogout, and charcot's arthropathy.

Risk Factors

Common Risk Factors

Most common risk factors that predisposes septic arthritis are rheumatoid arthritis, prosthetic joint or joint replacement and skin infections.[1][2][3][4]

Other common risk factors that predispose septic arthritis are as follows:[5][4][6][7][8]

Type of risk factor Examples
Host phagocytic defects
Impaired host defense mechanisms
Direct penetration
  • Intravenous drug use
  • Puncture wonds
  • Intra articular steroid injection
Joint damage
Other risk factors
