Epidemiology of shoulder dislocations presenting to United States emergency departments: An updated ten-year study

The irrational and prolonged use of antibiotics in orthopaedic infections poses a major threat to the development of antimicrobial resistance. To combat antimicrobial resistance, researchers have implemented various novel and innovative modalities to curb infections. Nanotechnology involves doping ions/metals onto the scaffolds to reach the target site to eradicate the infective foci. In this connotation, we reviewed silver nanoparticle technology in terms of mechanism of action, clinical applications, toxicity, and regulatory guidelines to treat orthopaedic infections.
