Core Tip |
Acute septic arthritis is an orthopedic emergency. The current gold standard diagnostic tool is synovial fluid culture, but this can take days to results, so decisions about surgery are made with imperfect information. A novel diagnostic “Sepsis MetaScore” (SMS) based on an mRNA signature has been identified that uses a blood sample to rapidly identify differentiate septic vs aseptic inflammation. Our pilot study showed the SMS had higher diagnostic accuracy than current standard of care inflammatory labs, showing potential for use as a rule-out test for septic arthritis, helping to minimize misdiagnosis and avoid unnecessary surgeries. |
