Background: With diminishing reimbursement rates and strained public payer budgets, a high-volume inpatient procedure, such as total knee arthroplasty (TKA), is common target for improving cost efficiencies. Methods: This prospective case–control study compared the cost-minimization of same day discharge (SDD) versus TKA. We examined if where savings can be realized magnitude that achieved without compromising quality care. Outcome variables, including detailed case costs, return to hospital...
Background: The optimal technique for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is controversial, and both single double-row techniques are commonly used. In the current era of increasing costs, health-care delivery models focusing on value care. this study, we compared cost-effectiveness single-row reconstructions in patients undergoing repair. Methods: A cost-utility analysis was performed from perspective a publicly funded system. Health-care probabilities, utility values were derived published...
PurposeDistal radius fractures (DRFs) are one of the most common in adults. Adequate patient education is crucial for adherence to treatment. YouTube a popular, accessible resource that has become valuable tool obtaining health information. The current study evaluated top 50 videos on DRF treatment education.MethodsA systematic search was conducted using three searches obtain 150 videos. Duplicate, nonrelevant, paid, and non-English were removed, rank-ordered reviewed characterized terms...
Background: The optimal treatment of acetabular fractures in the senior cohort is undetermined. Total hip arthroplasty setting an fracture increasing popularity. However, there concern regarding fixation a prosthetic cup fractured acetabulum. purpose this study to map area stable articular surface and bone corridors available for cohort. Methods: CT scans 131 consecutive geriatric patients older than 65 years from two level 1 academic trauma centers were analyzed. Acetabular classified using...
Background: Primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been suggested for posterior wall (PW) fractures with unfavorable features in the geriatric population. There is a paucity of studies reporting on postoperative protocols primary THA after PW fractures. The purpose this study was to test biomechanical effect immediate assisted weight-bearing acetabulum cup fixation an osteoporotic fracture model. Methods: Computed tomography scans 18 (mean age, 77 ± 8 years) were used generate...
Varus posteromedial rotatory instability is a difficult clinical problem to diagnose and treat. Fixation of the anteromedial coronoid fracture often necessary achieve elbow stability. We describe an extensile surgical approach coronoid.A retrospective review was performed all patients at our institution who had fixed with this between 2012 2020.Six were identified. They achieved stable elbow. Four 6 developed heterotopic ossification 2/6 required further surgery for this. Only 1 patient...
