Alpha-Defensins & Synovial Proteins to Improve Detection of Pediatric Septic Arthritis
Grant Recipient: Emily Dodwell, MD
- Institution:
- Hospital for Special Surgery
- Presentations & Publications:
- Pending study completion
- Further Funding:
- In addition to POSNA funding, we received an internal HSS resident grant (supporting Dr. Joe Ruzbarsky, resident assisting with this study). This internal grant has covered initial patients recruited at HSS, allowing us to re-allocate the majority of the POSNA funds to Atlanta and Memphis for participant recruitment. We plan to apply for NIH funding once we have recruited sufficient patients to demonstrate feasibility and pilot results.
