The aim of this study was to determine the impact severity anaemia on postoperative complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA) and knee (TKA).A retrospective cohort conducted using American College Surgeons National Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database. All patients who underwent primary TKA or THA between January 2012 December 2017 were identified stratified based upon hematocrit level. In analysis, we defined as packed cell volume (Hct) < 36% for women 39% men,...
Aims This study used an artificial neural network (ANN) model to determine the most important pre- and perioperative variables predict same-day discharge in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods Data for this were collected from National Surgery Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database year 2018. Patients who received a primary, elective, unilateral TKA with diagnosis of primary osteoarthritis included. Demographic, preoperative, intraoperative analyzed. The ANN was...
Knee arthroscopy may be performed prior to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with symptomatic degenerative changes that do not yet warrant TKA. The purpose of this study was determine whether the time interval between and subsequent primary TKA is associated increased rates revision certain complications following TKA.Data from 2006 2017 were collected a national insurance database. Patients who underwent within 1 year identified stratified into cohorts based on stratum-specific...
Recently, the Federation of State Medical Boards and National Board Examiners, cosponsors United States Licensing Examination (USMLE), changed USMLE Step 1 results from a three-digit score to pass/fail format. The purpose this study was analyze opinions program directors (PDs) predict how evaluation orthopaedic surgery residency applicants will change following change.A 17-question online survey distributed PDs via e-mail. This covered demographics, questions regarding relative importance...
Corticosteroid injections are often used to manage glenohumeral arthritis in patients who may be candidates for future total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) or reverse (rTSA). In the conservative management of these patients, corticosteroid provided symptomatic relief. The purpose this study was determine if timing prior TSA rTSA is associated with changes rates revision and periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following procedures.Data were collected from a national insurance database January...
Citation analysis is commonly used to evaluate the impact of academic publications within an area study. The purpose this study review with highest Altmetric scores related total hip arthroplasty (THA) and knee (TKA) assess correlation traditional bibliometrics.Altmetric were obtained for top articles relating THA TKA organized from lowest scores. Clarivate Analytics Web Knowledge database was search by score. Articles meeting inclusion criteria reviewed various metrics, including number...
Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) is becoming a more common procedure due to the increasing volume of primary arthroplasty. Diabetes mellitus (DM) currently projected affect 4.4% global population by 2030. has been associated with poor outcomes for variety surgical interventions. However, impact insulin dependence yet be fully understood. The aim this study was determine on acute postoperative complications following rTHA.A retrospective cohort conducted using American College Surgeons...
Orthopedic surgery is one of the least diverse medical specialties. Other specialties have employed diversity-related initiatives to increase number students underrepresented in medicine (URM). Furthermore, with suspension visiting student rotations during COVID-19 pandemic, used residency program Web sites as a main source program-specific information.The purpose this study was measure extent which orthopedic describe diversity and inclusion initiatives.The Electronic Residency Application...
Revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an increasingly common procedure and effective in treating osteoarthritis, but it has higher complication rates than primary TKA. Anesthetic choice poses perioperative risk that been extensively studied TKA, showing favorable results for regional anesthesia compared with general anesthesia. The impact of anesthetic revision TKAs not well studied. A retrospective cohort study was conducted using the American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality...
Osteonecrosis (ON) of the femoral head is a common complication sickle cell disease (SCD), frequently necessitating total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although THA procedure with few complications when indicated for osteoarthritis (OA), patients SCD have increased rates complications. The purpose this study to determine impact on outcomes and following THA.Subjects were retrospectively identified using national insurance claims database (PearlDiver Technologies) CPT ICD-9/10. Patients included if...
Introduction: In patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA), it is unclear whether a difference in complication rates exists between discharged the day of surgery compared with subsequent postoperative days. Methods: Data were collected from PearlDiver Patient Records Database 2007 to 2017. Subjects identified using International Classification Diseases codes. Eligible stratified into following three groups: (1) same discharge (<24 hours postoperatively), (2) rapid (1 2 days), and...
Given the growing rate of revision total knee arthroplasties (TKAs), it is important to understand potential risk factors associated with postoperative complications. The aim this study was determine role operative time in complications TKA. A retrospective cohort performed using data from American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database. Patients who had undergone TKA between 2007 and 2016 were identified analyzed based on time. effect examined multinomial...

Although rare, injury to the vertebral artery (VA) can occur after blunt trauma or iatrogenically during surgery. Clinicians should be aware of anatomic variants VA, presence which may increase risk iatrogenic VA (VAI).If VAI is suspected following trauma, rapid identification via advanced imaging modalities, such as computed tomography angiography, help clarify site and guide management.VAI classified according Denver grading scale for cerebrovascular injury, ranging from grade I V,...
