The purpose of this study was to investigate the cost-effectiveness robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) versus conventional manual TKA in patients with osteoarthritis.A Markov model simulated lifetime outcomes at average age 60 years. Costs included a preoperative CT scan and costs for acquisition use robotic equipment (average $706,250). We used three institutional case volumes generate per-case costs: low volume (10 cases, $71,025 per case), mid (100 $7,463 high (200 $3,931...
Whether decreasing the local anesthetic concentration during a continuous femoral nerve block results in less quadriceps weakness remains unknown.Preoperatively, bilateral perineural catheters were inserted subjects undergoing knee arthroplasty (n = 36) at single clinical center. Postoperatively, right-sided randomly assigned to receive ropivacaine of either 0.1% (basal 12 ml/h; bolus 4 ml) or 0.4% 3 1 ml), with left catheter receiving alternative concentration/rate an observer- and...
Background: Bilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been shown to increase both mortality and complications, but potential benefits including decreased length of stay, rehabilitation time, costs. The purpose this study was use data from a nationally representative database identify if there is population patients undergoing TKA in whom bilateral can be safely performed, by comparing 30-day complication rates with those unilateral TKA. Methods: National Surgical Quality Improvement...
Artificial intelligence and machine-learning analytics have gained extensive popularity in recent years due to their clinically relevant applications. A wide range of proof-of-concept studies demonstrated the ability these analyses personalize risk prediction, detect implant specifics from imaging, monitor assess patient movement recovery. Though applications are exciting could potentially influence practice, it is imperative understand when indicated where data derived from, prior investing...
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays have been used to detect bacteria adherent failed orthopaedic implants, but some PCR had problems with probable false-positive results. We a combination of Staphylococcus species-specific and universal followed by DNA sequencing identify on implants retrieved from 52 patients (92 implants) at revision arthroplasty. addressed two questions in this study: (1) Is method able show the existence bacterial presumed aseptic loosed implants?; (2) What...
