    Author: Andrews HJ, Arden GP, Hart GM, Owen JW.
    Journal: J Bone Joint Surg Br; 1981 Feb; 63-B(1):53-7. PubMed ID: 7009620.
    Abstract:
    Sixty-eight patients suffering deep infection from a consecutive series of 1746 total hip replacement operations are reviewed. The infection rate has been reduced considerably by improved technique and multiple antibiotic prophylaxis without the use of a special operation enclosure. Factors affecting deep infection are analysed and discussed.
