Total joint arthroplasty is the most frequently performed orthopaedic procedure in United States. The purpose of present study was to identify differences thirty-day morbidity and mortality following primary total hip knee according smoking status pack-year history smoking.We queried American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) database patients who had undergone or between 2006 2012. Patients were stratified by smoking. Thirty-day rates mortality,...
Infection after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can result in disastrous consequences. Previous research regarding injections and risk of TKA infection have produced conflicting results general been limited by small cohort size.The purpose this study was to evaluate if intraarticular injection before increases the postoperative identify time between affect infection.The Humana data set reviewed from 2007 2014 for all patients who received a TKA.

Background: Knee arthroplasty has emerged as an effective treatment for end-stage gonarthrosis. Although total knee remains the gold standard, unicompartmental is appropriate alternative select patients. We sought to use a large, heterogeneous national database identify differences in thirty-day complication rates between and well risk factors complications. Methods: Patients ACS NSQIP (American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program) who had undergone or from 2005...

Background: Reported infection rates following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction are low, but infections associated with high morbidity including reoperations and inferior clinical outcomes. The purpose of the current study was to investigate rate after ACL without graft preparation a vancomycin irrigant. Methods: All reconstructions performed between May 2009 August 2018 at single academic institution were reviewed categorized based on use. Patients <90-day follow-up,...
