Abstract Background

The treatment of bone and joint infections (BJI) involving multi-drug resistant bacteria remains a challenge. MDR Staphylococcus epidermidis (MDRSE) clones, resistant to methicillin, clindamycin, levofloxacin, rifampicin and even linezolid, have been reported worldwide. The interest of delafloxacin (DFX), theoretically active on MRSA, remains to be evaluated with respect to MDRSE.

Purpose

Our objective was to evaluate during a retrospective multicenter study the DFX minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and compare its efficacy between ofloxacin-susceptible and ofloxacin-resistant S. epidermidis clinical strains involved in BJI.

Aim

Spinal infection is the most frequent complication of spine surgery. Its incidence varies between 1% and 14% in the literature, depending on various studied populations and surgical procedures. The aim of this study was to describe a consecutive 2706 case series.

Method

We analyzed a prospective cohort of 2706 patients operated for spine disease between 2013 and 2016 in a University Hospital. The infection rates, germs, time between surgery and infection and outcomes after surgical revision were assessed with a minimum follow-up of 7 months. We developed a mathematical model to analyze risk factors in this difficult-to-treat population.
