II. Epidemiology
- Incidence: 2-10 per 100,000 cases/year (16,000) of Monoarticular Arthritis in the Emergency Department (U.S., 2018)
- Age
- Bimodal distribution peaks <15 years old and over 55 years old
- Young children <18-24 months are more susceptible to Septic Arthritis
- Bridging veins between metaphysis and epiphysis allow spread of infection to joint
- Bridging veins close after age 18-24 months
III. Causes
- See Septic Joint Causes
- Most common causes of Septic Joint
- Streptococcus
- Staphylococcus (including MRSA or Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus)
- MRSA is associated with more severe infection and subperiostal abscess
- Gonorrhea is the most common cause of Septic Arthritis in young adults
IV. Risk Factors
- No risk factor present in up to 22% of cases
- Systemic comorbidity
- Immunosuppression
- HIV Infection
- Diabetes Mellitus
- Intravenous drug use (unusual joints affected)
- Alcoholism
- Sickle Cell Anemia
- Elderly patients over age 80 years old
- Tobacco Abuse
- Joint disorders (47% of cases have previously deranged affected joint)
- Rheumatoid Arthritis (14% of cases)
- Higher mortality risk with Immunosuppressants (TNF agents, Systemic Corticosteroids)
- TNF agents predispose atypical and virulent infections (e.g. Salmonella, Actinobacillus, Listeria)
- Higher risk of Oligoarticular infection
- Osteoarthritis
- Inflammatory Bowel Disease
- Prosthetic joint (1-2% risk at 2 years, >2% at 10 years; nearly half occur in the first 3 months after surgery)

- Tubb (2020) J Am Acad Orthop Surg 28(8): e340-8 [PubMed]
V. Pathophysiology
- Hematologic seeding in most cases from Occult Bacteremia
- Once joint seeding occurs, infection progresses rapidly
- Joint is susceptable to hematogenous spread
- Synovial lining lacks a protective basement membrane
- Sources
- Pneumonia
- Skin or soft tissue infection
- Pyelonephritis
- Other, less causes of joint infection
- Trauma
- IV Drug Abuse
- Iatrogenic Infection (e.g. Joint Injection, arthroscopy)
VI. Precautions
- Septic Arthritis has a high inpatient mortality (approaches 15%)
- Delayed diagnosis significantly increases morbidity and mortality
- Examination is unreliable in ruling out Septic Arthritis
- Poor reliability in distinguishing from Gouty Arthritis
- Crystals in Synovial Fluid does not exclude Septic Joint (actually increases its risk)
- Lab testing (outside of Joint Aspiration) is unreliable
- No lab value (e.g. CRP, ESR, WBC) outside of Joint Fluid examination excludes Septic Joint
- Joint infection leads to rapid joint destruction
- Inflammatory reaction directly associated with infection
- Intra-articular pressure with secondary vascular compromise
- Risk of permanent joint injury increases when appropriate Antibiotics are delayed >24-48 from onset
-
Gout or Pseudogout exacerbation does NOT exclude Septic Arthritis
- Septic Arthritis occurs concurrent with gout or Pseudogout in 1.5 to 5% of cases
VII. Differential Diagnosis
- See Monoarticular Arthritis
- See Joint Pain Causes (Monoarticular)
- See Septic Joint Causes
VIII. History
- Fever (<60% of cases)

- Joint erythema
- Significantly decreased joint range of motion (limited by pain)
- Significantly decreased weight bearing on infected joints
- Limb paralysis from inflammatory neuritis
- Joint with overlying Cellulitis (significantly increased risk of Septic Joint)
- Native Joints affected in Bacterial Infection
- Septic Arthritis is Polyarticular in 10-20% of cases (evaluate for endocarditis when multiple joints involved)
- Oligoarticular infection, often with fever, most commonly affects Shoulder, wrist and elbow
- Septic Knee (40-50% of cases)
- Septic Hip (15-20% of cases)
- Hip is most commonly affected joint in young children (40% of cases)

- Septic Ankle (6-9% of cases)
- Septic Wrist (5-8% of cases)
- Septic Elbow (3-8% of cases)
- Septic Arthritis is Polyarticular in 10-20% of cases (evaluate for endocarditis when multiple joints involved)
- Joints affected with Intravenous Drug Abuse

XI. Labs: General
- Precaution
- Arthrocentesis is the only accurate method to exclude Septic Arthritis
- However, do not delay Antibiotics for Arthrocentesis in ill or septic appearing patients (esp. children)
- None of these labs (CBC, ESR nor CRP) absolutely excludes Septic Arthritis at any level
- These labs may all be normal or even low despite Septic Arthritis
- Lab markers are useful as baseline to follow response to therapy
-
C-Reactive Protein (C-RP)
- C-RP typically >20 mg/L in pediatric Septic Arthritis
- Test Sensitivity: 95% in children
- Closely mirrors infectious, inflammatory process
- Preferred serum marker in children (over ESR or Procalcitonin)
- Directs transition from IV to oral Antibiotics (when C-RP drops >50% from initial level)
- C-RP >2 mg/dl has Test Sensitivity >92% in adults
- C-RP typically >20 mg/L in pediatric Septic Arthritis
-
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)
- Children
- ESR typically > 25 mm/hour in pediatric Septic Arthritis
- Adults
- ESR >10 mm/hour (Test Sensitivity 98%) or ESR >15 mm/hour (Test Sensitivity 94%)
- Hariharan (2011) J Emerg Med 40(4): 428-31 [PubMed]
- Children
-
Complete Blood Count
- WBC Count typically >12,000 in pediatric Septic Arthritis
- Other tests in severe cases or as directed by history
- Blood Culture
- Bacteremia is present in up to one third of cases of Septic Arthritis
- Obtain Blood Cultures (esp. in children) before starting Antibiotics
- Comprehensive Metabolic Panel
- Typically obtained in severe Septic Arthritis, to establish end-organ injury, Renal Dosing of Antibiotics
- May also evaluate Pseudogout
- Uric Acid
- Evaluate for gout in differential diagnosis
- STD Testing
- Gonorrhea (PCR from Urethra or Cervix, or Throat Culture)
- Syphilis
- Procalcitonin
- Procalcitonin >0.5 ng/ml has Positive Likelihood Ratio approaching 11
- Blood Culture
XII. Labs: Synovial Fluid Exam via Arthrocentesis
- Approach: Synovial Fluid Testing
- Synovial Fluid White Blood Cell Count
- Non-inflammatory Arthritis: 200-2000 White Blood Cells
- Inflammatory Arthritis: 2000 to 50,000 White Blood Cells
- Infectious Arthritis: >50,000 White Blood Cells (LR+ 3.6)
- Synovial FluidGram Stain
- Falsely negative in 20-40% of Septic Arthritis patients
- Synovial Fluid culture
- Imperative to obtain (Gram Stain alone is insufficient)
- Best inoculated into Blood Culture medium (less contamination, better yield than solid plating)
- Synovial Fluid Crystal Exam
- Evaluates for the alternative, inflammatory Arthritis (e.g. gout, Pseudogout)
- However, crystalline Arthritis (e.g. gout) does not exclude Septic Joint
- Patients with underlying crystalline Arthritis are at a higher risk for Septic Joint
- Avoid Joint FluidGlucose and Protein (not useful)
- Synovial Fluid Lactate
- Lactic Acid >10 mmol/L consistent with Septic Arthritis
- Lactic Acid 5-10 mmol/L is suspicious for Septic Arthritis
- Synovial Fluid White Blood Cell Count
- Bacterial Arthritis
- Opaque to turbid Synovial Fluid
- Synovial Fluid WBC
- Non-prosthetic joint: >50,000 White Blood Cells (or >90% PMNs)
- Likelihood Ratio: 4.7 for Septic Arthritis
- Prosthetic joint: >1700 White Blood Cells per mm3 (or >65% PMNs)
- Non-prosthetic joint: >50,000 White Blood Cells (or >90% PMNs)
- Gram Stain
- Test Sensitivity: 29-60%
- Bacterial Culture
- Test Sensitivity: 30-50% (75% if Polyarticular)
- Guides Antibiotic therapy when positive
- Synovial lactate
- Synovial lactate >10 mmol/L has a very high Likelihood Ratio for Septic Arthritis (rules in Septic Arthritis)
-
Gonococcal Arthritis
- Clear to opaque Synovial Fluid
- Synovial Fluid WBC: 30,000 to 100,000 (>80% PMNs)

XIV. Imaging: Possibly Infected Prosthetic Joint
- Nuclear scan
- Negative Nuclear scan excludes septic prosthetic joint
- Pet Scan
- Avoid CT Scan or MRI in infected prosthetic joint
- Does not distinguish infected prosthetic joint from other causes of pain
XV. Management: General
- Obtain early Consultation
- Septic Arthritis management requires two components
- Thorough Joint Fluid drainage of purulent fluid
- Antimicrobial management to cover the causative organisms
- A third component, identifying Osteomyelitis (30% of cases), is key in children with Bacterial Arthritis
-
Antibiotics are started after obtaining joint culture and Blood Culture
- See Septic Arthritis Causes for Antibiotic considerations
- Gram Stain of fluid may assist Antibiotic selection
- Empirically Antibiotics based on age and risk factors (see below) until culture results available
- Initial Antibiotic coverage for Gram Positive Cocci (Staphylococcus and Streptococcus)
- Additional Gram Negative coverage indications (if not otherwise directed by Gram Stain)
- Older age
- Immunosuppression
- Suspected bacteremia from genitourinary source
- Consider other coverage based on risk factors and history
- See Septic Joint Causes
- See Gonococcal Arthritis
- See Lyme Disease (Late Disseminated Lyme Disease)
- See Tuberculous Arthritis
- Antibiotics do not need to be injected into joints
- Joint cultures are recommended before Antibiotics in most cases even if 24-48 hour Antibiotic start delay
- However do NOT delay Antibiotics in ill appearing children with suspected Bacterial Arthritis
- Antibiotics may be considered prior to Arthrocentesis in adults ONLY if
- Septic Shock (hemodynamically unstable) OR
- Strong suspicion of Septic Arthritis AND
- Consultant agrees that Antibiotics should be started before the culture has been obtained AND
