What Is the Normal Trajectory of C-Reactive Protein, Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, Plasma Fibrinogen and D-Dimer after Two-Stage Exchange for Periprosthetic Joint Infection?

The study demonstrated the normal trajectory of CRP, ESR, plasma fibrinogen and D-Dimer at five time points in patients who underwent two-stage exchange for PJI. Thus, the results have the possibility of providing signs of infection after the patient receives two-stage exchange arthroplasty for PJI, which can benefit from early treatment.
