          Abstract

          Dilute povidone-iodine (PI) lavage, a simple disinfection method, could reduce postoperative infection risk. However, there is no clinical consensus regarding its efficacy in total joint arthroplasties (TJAs). This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated PI lavage's efficacy in preventing infection after TJA.
