In general, models that performed well used large patient numbers, were tested on similar demographics, and used either nonlinear input transformations or a completely nonlinear model. Conclusion: Some models do show promise; however, there remains the question of whether the reported predictive success can continue to be replicated. Furthermore, clinical applicability and interpretation of predictive tools should be considered during development.]]> Tue 26 Jul 2022 11:57:37 AEST ]]> Success of Debridement, Antibiotics, and Implant Retention in Prosthetic Joint Infection Following Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty: Results From a Prospective Multicenter Study of 189 Cases https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51580 1 month with <7 days symptoms, chronic >1 month with >7 days symptoms) classifications. Results: DAIR success was 45% (85/189) and was highest in early PJIs defined according to the Coventry (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 3.9, P =.01), the International Consensus Meeting (aOR = 3.1, P =.01), and the Auckland classifications (aOR = 2.6, P =.01). Success was lower in both hematogenous (aOR = 0.4, P =.03) and chronic infections (aOR = 0.1, P =.003). Conclusion: Time since primary TKA is an important predictor of DAIR success. Success was highest in infections occurring <1 month of the primary TKA and progressively decreased as time since the primary TKA increased.]]> Mon 11 Sep 2023 14:30:45 AEST ]]> Open Debridement is Superior to Arthroscopic Debridement for the Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42156 Fri 19 Aug 2022 09:01:13 AEST ]]>
