PJI-TNM Educational App vs ICODE Hip US Calculator Kullanım & İstatistikleri
The PJI-TNM Educational mobile app, released by the University Medical Center Regensburg, was developed to provide guidance on the use of the PJI-TNM classification and to familiarize new users with the classification.
PJI-TNM App for physicians:
- The PJI-TNM Educational mobile app provides guidance on the use of the PJI-TNM classification for periprosthetic joint infections
- The PJI TNM code can be easily generated directly in the app.
- Enter relevant patient characteristics, such as age, gender, and comorbidities.
- Assessment of the causative pathogen, considering biofilm maturity and antimicrobial resistance to biofilm-active antibiotics.
- Evaluation of the indwelling implant including soft tissue conditions, implant type, and implant stability.
- Copy the PJI TNM code for easy further use.
- Request all relevant information on an existing periprosthetic joint infection by entering the corresponding PJI-TNM code.
How to determine a PJI TNM code:
Using the PJI-TNM code, decisive criteria in periprosthetic joint infections can be considered and accurately classified in accordance with the oncological TNM classification. As a training tool, the app guides the user in a structured manner through the most important criteria, such as implant type and implant stability, biofilm maturity, pathogen characteristics, soft tissue conditions, comorbidities, and infection recurrence, thereby determining the correct PJI-TNM classification.
Clinical professionals complete a specially designed questionnaire to determine the PJI-TNM classification. After answering the questionnaire, the app provides the corresponding PJI-TNM code. Existing codes can be entered manually into the app to obtain all relevant information on existing periprosthetic joint infections.
The app available here serves as a training tool to become familiar with the use of the PJI-TNM classification and thus to register periprosthetic joint infections quickly, easily, and in a patient-specific manner with a PJI-TNM code.

The application is intended for use only by healthcare professionals.
The main goal of the application is to be an easy-to-use and useful tool for calculating a babys hip type.
The healthcare professional will provide some basic information about the baby after examination like the baby birth date, date of examination and both infant hip angless (in degrees). Based on an algorithm the application will display a result abount the infant's hip type. Also instructions are displayed based on the result.
Healthcare professionals who use it, do so at their own risk and should exercise their own clinical judgment as to the information they provide to the patients.
We have tried to create content to conform to the standards of professional practice that prevailed at the time of development. However, standards and practices in medicine change as new data become available and the individual medical professional should consult a variety of sources. Medical information changes rapidly.
