Synopsis Bone and Joint Infections by : W. Zimmerli
Infections of the bones (osteomyelitis) and joints (septic arthritis) are serious health problems which require antibiotics and often surgery. Awareness among health professionals of the causes and treatment options for various types of bone and joint infections is essential for effective resolution. Bone and Joint Infections takes a multidisciplinary approach in covering the diagnostic and therapeutic treatment of osteomyelitis and septic arthritis, including different types of implant-associated infections. Correct and rapid diagnosis of bone and joint infection is crucial, and requires the input of a variety of specialists. Bone and Joint Infection takes a similarly collaborative and comprehensive approach, including chapters authored by clinicians, laboratory specialists, and surgeons. Covering the basic microbiology and clinical aspects of bone and joint infection, this book will be a valuable resource both for researchers in the lab and for physicians and surgeons seeking a comprehensive reference on osteomyelitis and septic arthritis.

Synopsis OSTEOARTICULAR INFECTIONS IN PEDIATRICS: EPIDEMIOLOGIAL UPDATE by : Ana Carolina De
BackgroundAcute osteoarticular infections (OAI) is a potentially severe disease that affect mainly children younger than 5 years old. Early diagnosis and treatment reduce the risk of complications and sequelae. This study evaluated the etiology, clinic and laboratory characteristics, and treatment of OAI in children. MethodsWe accessed medical records from children under 16 years old with OAI admitted at our hospital between January 2002 and December 2016.ResultsOur study included 64 children. An agent was identified in 62% of the cases: in blood culture (31%), joint secretion (10%), peripheral blood culture plus joint secretion or bone fragment (20%). The main etiologic agent was S. aureus (40%), followed by S. pyogenes (8%). In the susceptibility profile, 73% of the S. aureus were methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) and 27% were resistant (MRSA). All MRSA, except one, was considered community associated (CA)-MRSA by phenotypic profile. All patients were treated with endovenous antibiotic and was used in 46% of the patients.ConclusionsWe could identify a high rate of agents (62%), with the highest positivity observed in patients who had osteomyelitis. The rate of MRSA raises the question whether oxacillin should still be maintained as the first choice as empirical therapy for OAI. Kingella kingae, considered one of the most frequent agent in pediatric group, was not observed in our cases; possibly because we do not routinely use identification methods for this agent. All patients were hospitalized. Socioeconomic-cultural conditions of our population can explain the longest hospitalization and antibiotic use.

Synopsis Pediatric Musculoskeletal Infections by : Mohan V. Belthur
Pediatric musculoskeletal infections are common globally and represent about 1-2% of all pediatric hospital admissions in the developed world and about 10-20% of admissions in the developing countries. If untreated or treated inadequately, pediatric bone and joint infections can cause significant mortality and morbidity. The functional and economic burden to the family and community at large also presents a significant public health problem. This book serves as an evidence-based, comprehensive review of the current concepts for the early diagnosis and management of pediatric musculoskeletal infections. Currently, there are no comprehensive, easily accessible books on this topic. This first of its kind book also uses a multidisciplinary and global approach by including contributions from editors and authors worldwide. The long-term goal of this text is to help improve the quality of care provided to children with musculoskeletal infections improve patient safety, reduce the cost of care, and add value to the care provided to these children and thus reduce the economic burden. Broken up into five sections, the first part of this text covers the epidemiology, microbiology, pathological consequences, antibiotic therapies, systemic effects, and imaging modalities of pediatric musculoskeletal infections. Section two takes a detailed look at acute pediatric musculoskeletal infections. Infections discussed in this section include acute hematogenous osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, pyomyositis, complex musculoskeletal infections, musculoskeletal infections in the neonate and acute surgical site infection after pediatric orthopedic surgery. Section three focuses on chronic osteomyelitis and its sequelae. Section four examines anatomic region-specific considerations in musculoskeletal infections. The topics that are expanded upon are epiphyseal osteomyelitis, Pediatric hand and foot infections, tuberculosis of the axial and the appendicular skeleton, and non-tuberculous infections of the spine. Finally, the fifth section includes an overview of less common musculoskeletal conditions such as, fungal infections, brucellosis, hydatid disease, gas gangrene, viral musculoskeletal infection and meningococcal infections. Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Musculoskeletal Infections: Principles and Practice serves as an easily accessible resource for a global audience of healthcare providers from multiple disciplines to aid them in making informed decisions while managing pediatric bone and joint infections. Paediatricians, orthopedic surgeons, infectious disease physicians, radiologists, pathologists, family physicians and any other healthcare providers involved in the care of children with musculoskeletal infections will find immense value in this reference as will medical students, residents and fellows.
