ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating how having a special team of doctors and nurses work together in the operating room can help prevent infections after orthopedic surgery, which is surgery related to bones and joints. The goal is to see if this teamwork leads to better outcomes for patients and reduces the risk of infections at the surgical site.

To participate in this study, individuals need to be between 18 and 70 years old and have a confirmed orthopedic condition that can be diagnosed through imaging tests like X-rays. They should be scheduled for surgery at the hospital, and their vital signs should be stable. However, patients with multiple injuries, severe internal diseases, chronic infections, or cognitive impairments are not eligible. If you join the trial, you can expect close monitoring and care from a dedicated team aiming to improve recovery and safety during your surgery.
