About this trial

Bone and joint infections (BJI) are most often bacterial infections that can occur after surgery or de novo. They are rarely fatal in the short term, but are associated with significant morbidity, impaired quality of life and significant costs. Treatment of BJI is based on antibiotic therapy, often combined with surgery. Antibiotic therapy, at high doses, lasts a minimum of 6 weeks. It can be responsible for severe adverse effects. These characteristics (prolonged duration, multiple daily doses, and adverse effects) are known to negatively affect treatment adherence in general.
