Clinical outcome measures used under value-based reimbursement models require risk stratification of patient demographics and medical history. Only certain perioperative factors may be influenced by the surgeon. The study evaluated surgeon-influenced modifiable associated with achieving literature-defined KOOS score thresholds to serve as foundation newly established alternative payment for total knee arthroplasties (TKA). We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive cohort 4,324 patients...
Introduction: Although two-stage exchange has been the standard of care for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in United States, single-stage is emerging as an option select patients. The purpose this study was to compare outcomes patients undergoing and using strict surgical indications. Methods: We reviewed a consecutive series 196 with diagnosed PJI revision total knee hip arthroplasty from 2017 2021. Patients were excluded if they had history, plastic surgery coverage, or extensive...
The use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) to help reduce the risk infection after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is controversial. There a paucity in vivo data on elution characteristics ALBC. We aimed determine whether antibiotic concentrations 2 commercially available ALBCs met minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and biofilm eradication (MBEC) for common infecting organisms.
Noise generation and anterior knee pain can occur after primary total arthroplasty (TKA) may affect patient satisfaction. Polyethylene design in cruciate-sacrificing implants could be a variable influencing these complications. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect polyethylene on noise pain.
No single test has demonstrated absolute accuracy in the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Leukocyte esterase (LE) is a synovial marker that proven utility PJI. The purpose this prospective study was to (1) identify optimal cutoff for use LE PJI and (2) determine whether performance strip varied by infecting organism. This enrolled 1,015 patients undergoing hip or knee revision arthroplasty at institution from 2009 September 2021. defined using modified version 2018...
Background Extensor mechanism injury (EMI) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a potentially catastrophic complication and may lead to significant morbidity or need for revision reconstructive procedures. Patella resurfacing (PR), while commonly performed during TKA, reduces overall patella bone stock increase the risk of EMI after TKA. The purpose this study was assess if patellar (PR) in elderly patients raises subsequent EMI. Methods American Joint Replacement Registry (AJRR)...
Introduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis is the standard of care after total joint arthroplasty. However, there have been changes in prevalence certain medication classes used by institutions over time driven literature and national clinical practice guidelines. The purpose this study was to analyze patterns VTE medications past 10 years at our institution. Methods: We identified 25,095 patients who underwent a primary arthroplasty between 2012 2022. Medications for included...
