Intravenous antibiotic duration in the treatment of prosthetic joint infection: systematic review and meta-analysis
Abstract Introduction < p = 0. 18. However, due to the moderate to high heterogeneity (I 2 = 68 %, p < p < I 2 = 51 %, p = 0. 06). Conclusion: This study highlights the limited data available for evaluating IV antibiotic duration in the setting of PJI. We found that a shorter duration of IV antibiotics was non-inferior to a longer duration, with an improved OR of 2.45 for treatment success, likely shortening inpatient stay as well as lessening side effects and antimicrobial resistance with a lower cost to patients and overall healthcare.
