Overview

Causes

FIRE

Diagnosis

Treatment

Empiric treatment should be commenced as soon as possible after culture samples have been obtained. The choice of empiric antibiotics should be determined on the basis of:[1][2][3]

If the patient fails to respond to initial treatment, consider:[1]

  • Misidentification of causative pathogen
  • Infection with atypical pathogen
  • Concurrent osteomyelitis
  • Occult nidus of infection

Intra-articular antibiotics are not useful as it may increase infection rate and also causes chemical synovitis and cartilage toxicity.[4]

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)

Patient at high risk of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) include:[5][6]

  • Known MRSA colonization or infection
  • Recent hospitalization
  • Nursing-home resident
  • Presence of leg ulcers
  • Indwelling catheters
