In Vivo Assessment of Titanium Devices loaded with gentamicin in a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Rabbit Osteomyelitis Experimental Model

摘要

The use of such devices appears not to be used alone in the treatment of acute bone infections, but in addition to systemic antibiotherapy. However, bacterial contamination during surgery uses smaller bacterial loads (10~2 to 10~4 CFU/ mL). It would be of a great interest to test these implants with these inocula.
