🔥🔥 ASAP RCT 🔥🔥 NEJM The addition of vancomycin to cefazolin prophylaxis was not superior to placebo for the prevention of SSIs in arthroplasty among patients without known MRSA colonization ⬆SSI with combo after TKA ⬇AKI with Vanco/CFZ #IDXposts nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Read the landmark results of the ASAP Trial now published in The New England Journal of Medicine NEJM ➡️ nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

In this double-blind, randomized trial, vancomycin was added to cefazolin as surgical prophylaxis for arthroplasty. Surgical-site infections occurred in 4.5% of vancomycin recipients and 3.5% of placebo recipients. Full results of the ASAP trial: nej.md/3S4XNVU

Very excited to see our ASAP Trial published in The New England Journal of Medicine NEJM. This trial would not have been possible without the dedicated orthopaedic surgeons, anaesthetists, research staff and patients. Grateful to NHMRC for funding this important trial NHMRC.
