Dr. Jason Jennings, orthopedic surgeon with AdventHealth Medical Group Colorado Joint Replacement at Porter, was selected to present his research findings at the 3rd International Consensus Meeting on Infection (ICMI) in Istanbul, Turkey. This prestigious conference brings together over 1,000 surgeons and leading researchers from more than 100 countries, all united in their mission to improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of orthopedic-related infections.
Dr. Jennings, known for his dedication to advancing orthopedic research, is part of this global collaboration aimed at developing consensus protocols for managing infections associated with orthopedic procedures, including prosthetic joint infections. These infections represent one of the most challenging complications in modern orthopedics, making the work of ICMI—and contributors like Dr. Jennings—critical to advancing orthopedic patient care.
The ICMI focuses on creating comprehensive, evidence-based recommendations to improve patient care worldwide. “Learning and collaborating with this group of world experts allows me to bring back the latest knowledge and best practices to benefit our patients,” Dr. Jennings said.
At the conference, Dr. Jennings presented innovative strategies for preventing and treating joint infections, including new antibiotic protocols for penicillin-allergic patients and effective ways to minimize surgical risk factors such as diabetes and obesity.
Insights were drawn from both research and real clinical cases and emphasized the importance of rigorous technique, sterilization, and thorough preoperative assessments in reducing infection risk.
By sharing and implementing these infection protocols and strategies, Dr. Jennings is ensuring that innovative ideas and best practices from around the world can directly benefit patients at home in Colorado, leading to better outcomes for people with orthopedic challenges everywhere.
