ļ¼Provided the reader with
sufficient information to

ļ¼Well summarized.
ļ¼Well structured.
ļ¼Objective was clearly
identified.
23. Introduction
ļ±Rationale
ā¢ The preference for intravenous antibiotics reflects a broadly held belief that
parenteral therapy is superior to oral therapy. However, intravenous therapy is
associated with substantial risks, inconvenience, and higher costs than oral
therapy.
ļ±Hypothesis
ā¢ Intravenous antibiotics are not superior to oral therapy and bone infection can
be managed by oral antibiotics.
ļ±Objective
ā¢ To compare the efficacy and safety of intravenous versus oral antibiotic therapy
for patients with bone and joint infection.
23
24. Introduction Evaluation
ļ¼ Brief introduction.
ļ¼ Provides Background information about the topic.
ļ¼ Clear objective.
ļ¼ Included rationale and hypothesis.

25. Methods
25
ā¢ Subjects: 1050 patients underwent randomization.
ā¢ Randomly recruited.
ā¢ Multicenter(26 sites).
ā¢ Approved by the U.K. National Research Ethics Committee South Central.
ā¢ All patients signed a written informed consent.
26. Methods Evaluation
ļ¼The disease was defined clearly and appropriate for inclusion
criteria.
ļ¼Subjects recruitment does not affect the results: they are randomly
recruited.
ļ¼Clearly identified why each exclusion criteria was made.

Inclusion Criteria
1- Life expectancy > 1 year.
2- Willing and able to give informed
consent.

31. Measurement
31
Primary Endpoint Secondary Endpoint
ļ¶ Definite failure of infection treatment,
where definite failure is indicated by
one or more of the following;
A. Isolating bacteria from 2 or more
samples of bone/spine/peri-prosthetic
tissue, where the bacteria are similarly
typed.
B. A pathogenic organism (e.g.
Staphylococcus aureus but not
Staphylococcus epidermidis) on a
single, closed, biopsy of native bone or
spine.
C. Diagnostic histology on bone/peri-
prosthetic tissue.
D. Formation of a draining sinus tract
arising from bone.
ļ¶ Secondary adverse effects, including death
according to treatment allocation.
ļ¶ The frequency of line complications.
ļ¶ Adherence to oral medication.
ļ¶ Oxford Hip and Knee Scores.
ļ¶ Resource allocation determined by; a)
length of inpatient hospital stay b)
frequency of outpatient visits c) antibiotic
prescribing costs.
ļ¶ Early termination of the planned 6 week
period of oral or IV antibiotics because of
adverse events, patient preference or any
other reason.
32. Measurement Evaluation
ļ¼ Duration of the trial was sufficient.
ļ¼ Uniformity of measurements was assured among all centers.
ļ¼ Adherence/compliance was assessed(Clinical assessments and
patient-reported outcome measures were recorded at enrollment
and at days 42, 120, and 365. Adherence to treatment was assessed
at days 14 and 42.
32
33. Statistical Analysis
ā¢ Categorical data were compared with Fisherās test.
ā¢ All analyses were performed with Stata software.
ā¢ European Quality of Lifeā5 Dimensions was used in safety and
efficacy analysis.
33
34. Statistical Analysis Evaluation
ļ¼Power analysis is done.
ļ¼P-value is calculated and consistent with the clinical result.
ļ¼Statistical tests used are appropriate with the study design.
ļ¼Intention-to-treat method is used.
ļ¼Per-protocol method is used.
ļ¼Worst case sensitivity analysis is used.
34
39. Discussion
ā¢ Did not seek to compare specific antibiotic agents or to
stipulate which agents should be used.
ā¢ Rifampin, which is considered by many to be an important
agent in the treatment of certain biofilm-associated infections,
was more commonly planned as treatment in early antibiotic
regimens in the oral group than in the intravenous group,
although a subgroup analysis showed no significant effect of
planned use on outcome.
39
40. Discussion Evaluation
ļ¼Summarized the important results.
ļ¼Discussed the clinical implications.
ļ¼Stated the limitations of the study.
X Did not raise a question for further studies.
X Compare the results to other published trials.
40
41. Conclusion
ā¢ Oral antibiotic therapy was non-inferior to intravenous therapy
when used during the first 6 weeks in the management of bone
and joint infection, as assessed by treatment failure within 1
year.
ā¢ Oral antibiotic therapy was associated with a shorter length of
hospital stay and with fewer complications than intravenous
therapy.
