These findings suggest that irrigating with PVP at a low concentration could be a beneficial treatment for PJI in the presence of biofilm. Furthermore, the study provides evidence that irrigation with PVP is a critical step in removing biofilm from orthopedic surfaces during PJI treatment.The incidence rate of implant-related infection after arthroplasty and fracture fixation remains high despite advancements in surgical operations and techniques. The formation of biofilm on implant devices leads to connective tissue destruction, impaired vascularization, implant loosening, and joint dislocation (Campoccia et al., 2006). This antibiotic resistance makes it challenging to manage implant infections (Gbejuade et al., 2015).MRSA FROM STAINLESSTHE EFFICIENCY OF POVIDONE-IODINE TO ERADICATE THE BIOFILM OF MRSA FROM STAINLESS STEEL IMPLANT
