概括
阴极电压控制电刺激 (CVCES) 与贝塔丁相结合,有效地消除了骨科植入物上常见的周围假肢关节感染 (PJI) 生物膜. 这种方法对治疗耐药PJI具有前景,可能减少对多次手术和广泛使用抗生素的需求.
科学领域:
- 生物医学工程 生物医学工程
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
- 材料科学 材料科学 材料科学
背景情况:
- 周围假肢关节感染 (PJIs) 是整体关节整形术的重要并发症,通常需要复杂的治疗方案.
- 像*黄金葡萄球菌* (Staphylococcus aureus) *和*大肠杆菌* (Escherichia coli) *这样的细菌形成的生物膜使PJI中的抗生素有效性复杂化.
- 目前对PJIs的治疗方法通常受到抗生素耐药性和需要重复手术干预的限制.
研究的目的:
- 评估阴极电压控制电刺激 (CVCES) 在根除骨科植入物材料上的细菌生物膜方面的有效性.
- 评估CVCES和10%贝塔丁灌对生物膜减少的综合影响.
- 研究这些处理方法在化和无化- (CoCr) 和 (Ti) 表面的性能.
主要方法:
- 在实验室培养的E. coli,P. aeruginosa和S. aureus生物膜在固和无固的CoCr和Ti植入物表面上建立.
- 为了评估其独立的有效性,CVCES治疗被应用了24小时.
- 评估了一种3分钟10%贝塔丁治疗的组合疗法,其后是24小时的CVCES.
主要成果:
- 单靠CVCES就消除了在无水泥CoCr植入物上的*E. coli*和*P. aeruginosa*生物膜.
- 结合10%的贝塔丁和CVCES治疗使CFU水平降低到*E. coli*,*P. aeruginosa*和*S. aureus*在无植入物上的检测极限以下.
- 组合疗法是非常有效的,但不足以根除在水泥植入物上的 * S. aureus * 生物膜.
结论:
- CVCES,特别是与10%的贝塔丁结合使用时,显示出治疗骨科植入物上的生物膜感染的巨大潜力.
- 这种方法可能提供了一种新的策略,以加强目前的PJI的脱bridement,抗生素和植入物保留协议.
- CVCES是一种有前途的技术,可以改善患者在管理具有挑战性的周围假肢关节感染方面的结果.

Hand hygiene
3.2K
Asepsis is the practice of preventing or breaking the chain of infection. The nurse employs aseptic techniques to prevent the spread of microorganisms and reduce the risk of diseases. Hand hygiene is the cornerstone of aseptic techniques and is classified into medical and surgical asepsis. Medical asepsis includes hand hygiene and the use of gloves. Surgical asepsis, or the sterile technique, refers to practices that render and keep objects and areas free of microorganisms.

Cleaning, Sterilization, and Disinfection
6.8K
Cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization are the methods that help to break the infection chain and prevent disease.
Cleaning
The cleaning process usually involves using water with detergents or enzymatic cleaner and removing foreign material from objects and surfaces, including organic material such as body fluids or inorganic material like soil. Cleaning is performed before high-level disinfection and sterilization because foreign materials on the cover of the devices interfere with process...

Bacterial Signaling
32.1K
Bacterial signaling can occur within bacteria (intracellular) or between bacteria (intercellular). At times, a group of bacteria behaves like a community. To achieve this, they engage in quorum sensing, the perception of higher cell density that causes changes in gene expression. Quorum sensing involves both extracellular and intracellular signaling. The signaling cascade starts with a molecule called an autoinducer (AI). Individual bacteria produce AIs that move out of the bacterial cell...

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures
2.6K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.

Methods of Sterilization I: Physical Methods
19.9K
As used in a healthcare facility, sterilization destroys all microorganisms through physical or chemical methods. The physical method includes steam, dry heat, boiling water, and radiation.
Steam sterilization uses non-toxic, low-cost moist heat in the form of saturated steam under pressure, which is fast, microbicidal, and sporicidal, and quickly warms and penetrates fabrics. Autoclaves, or steam sterilizers, expose each item to direct steam contact for a predetermined time at the necessary...

Asepsis
2.1K
The condition of being free from disease-causing living pathogens is asepsis. Aseptic techniques include a set of standard practices to achieve asepsis. An example is the regular environmental cleaning of all parts of the healthcare facility and hand hygiene at home before preparing or eating food. Medical and surgical asepsis in healthcare practice protects patients from harmful pathogens, minimizes the risk of contamination of susceptible sites, and reduces the risk of infection transmission.
