2015
Orthopedic device-related infections are relatively uncommon (0.6–2.5 % for primary and up to 10–20 % for revision) (Jamsen et al. 2010; Urquhart et al. 2010; Cataldo et al. 2010; Moran et al. 2010; Peel et al. 2011; Shuman et al. 2012). They cause significant morbidity and mortality and an elevated health care expenditure (three times more than first implants).
