Introduction: Predicting purulent arthritis with a single marker may result in low sensitivity and specificity. We investigated the diagnostic value of serum markers and joint fluid C-reactive protein (CRP) in purulent arthritis.
Methodology: A total of 183 patients with acute joint infection, who were treated at our hospital between April 2019 and September 2022, were retrospectively analyzed via convenient sampling.
