Line of research:

Osteoarticular Infections

Summary

For many years as head of the IOT-HCFMUSP Infection Service, I have been developing, applying and disseminating knowledge about osteoarticular infections. This line of research is multi-thematic and has involved advising students on master’s dissertations and doctoral theses on infections in joint prostheses, osteomyelitis, infections in patients with neuropathic ulcers, and traumatic orthopedic hospital infections, among others.

The guidance provided and the knowledge acquired have made it possible to take responsibility for the preparation of the Brazilian and Pan-American Guidelines on such topics, as well as participation in the International Consensus of Musculoskeletal Infections.

Today, the IOT-HCFMUSP Infection Service has become a Brazilian reference for the study of bone and joint infections and for the training of infectologists and orthopedists working in other Brazilian states.
