RESUMO
La artritis séptica continúa siendo un gran reto para los médicos debido al aumento de resistencias antibióticas de ciertos microorganismos y a las persistentes dificultades para realizar un diagnóstico precoz y un adecuado tratamiento de las infecciones articulares. En este artículo se revisan las pruebas diagnósticas actuales y su contribución a una rápida evaluación de la infección articular, y se resalta las posibilidades terapéuticas y cuáles y cuándo deben aplicarse para disminuir el riesgo de secuelas que aparecen después de las artritis infecciosas (AU)
Septic arthritis remains a major challenge to physicians because the increasing frequency of certain microorganisms to become in antibiotic-resistant and persistent difficulties regarding both early diagnostics and proper treatment of subjects with joint infections. This paper will review current diagnostics test and their contribution to the rapid evaluation of joint infection.
