Core Tip |
We report infection preventative results of a novel antibiotic-loaded coating in a severe contami-nated model of orthopaedic infection. Phosphatidylcho-line coatings loaded with 25% vancomycin, which can be applied to implants immediately prior to implantation, significantly reduced staphylococcal adherence to intramedullary titanium wires in rabbits. Reduction in bacterial load on implants and in tissue for antibiotic-loaded coatings accompanied reduction in swelling and pus formation. Mild inflammatory responses were noted with coated implants compared to uncoated infected controls. This preliminary short term study demonstrates the clinical potential of these broadly applicable coatings and the need for further characterization and development.
