What is Septic Arthritis Etiology in Qatari Children about?
This study aimed to identify the etiology of septic arthritis in previously healthy, fully vaccinated children in Qatar, analyzing 45 cases from July 2018 to June 2024. The most common causative organisms were found to be Staphylococcus aureus (56%), Streptococcus pyogenes (13%), and Brucella (11%), with all patients recovering without complications. The findings suggest that empiric treatment should cover both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria until culture results are available.
