Official title

Intraosseous (IO) Vancomycin Into the Medial Malleolus vs Intravenous (IV) Administration in Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)

Overview

Purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of intravenous and intraosseous antibiotic administration techniques during revision total knee arthroplasty

Interventions

  • Drug Intraosseous Vancomycin
    IO vancomycin is administered via an intraosseous cannulation device (Arrow EZ-IO; Teleflex, Morrisville, NC) in the OR after sterile prep of the leg and draping has occurred prior to skin incision (500mg in approximately 100mL NS). Injection will take place into the medial malleolus (within a pre-specified region) immediately prior to incision.

Primary outcome measures

  • Level of Vancomycin [Time frame: During the surgery]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient is undergoing a revision total knee arthroplasty where in the opinion of the investigator, the patient's existing tibial component excludes the tibial tubercle as a valid intraosseous injection site.
  • Patient is able to understand the study design and intervention and gives informed consent to participate in the study.
  • Age > 18 years.

Exclusion criteria

  • Contraindication to receiving vancomycin, cefepime, ancef, or other standard of care pre-operative antibiotic (allergy, medical issue, etc).
  • Patient received or is scheduled to receive intravenous Vancomycin within 7 days prior to their planned revision procedure.
  • Any hardware, condition, or anatomic status that prevents the medial malleolus from being a viable intraosseous injection site.
  • Refusal to participate
  • Any condition, in the opinion of the primary investigator, that deems the participant unsuitable for participation in the research study.

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
