Core Tip |
Periprosthetic joint infection of total joint replacement poses a significant socio-economic burden. One factor is the need for prolonged parenteral antibiotic therapy. Outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy (OPAT) might reduce costs compared to inpatient (IPAT) settings. A systematic literature review was performed to compare economic impact of OPAT and IPAT. Twenty-one articles were identified of which 20 reported economic benefits of OPAT. While the heterogeneity of studies limited the interpretation and generalization, overall beneficial cost effects of OPAT were shown. Future studies should focus on specific economic outcomes of OPAT for PPJI. |
