Trial Outcomes

Complications

Complications were defined as septic arthritis, return to the OR, rehospitalization, and osteomyelitis of the injured joint. (NCT02841644)
Timeframe: 12 months

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Traumatic Arthrotomy- Treated Nonoperatively4
Traumatic Arthrotomy- Treated Operatively18

Cost of Treatments

To compare the cost of medical care in patients with traumatic arthrotomies treated with surgical irrigation and debridement versus non-operative treatment with local wound care. To estimate cost associated with TAs, total charge data was acquired for all patients treated at the lead site. (NCT02841644)
Timeframe: 12 months

Comparing 3-Month Change in Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey (VR-12) by Treatment Method

The veteran rand 12-tem health survey is used to determine change in health related quality of life to estimate disease burden. It is summarized into two scores, a physical component scores (PCS) (range 0-100) and mental component scores (range- 0-100). Higher score indicate better outcomes. (NCT02841644)
