Epidemiology of total hip arthroplasty: demographics, comorbidities and outcomes

Ishan Patel, Fong H. Nham, Leo Zalikha et al. · 2 Jan 2023

BACKGROUND: Primary THA (THA) is a successful procedure for end-stage hip osteoarthritis. In the setting of a failed THA, revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) acts as a salvage procedure. This procedure has increased risks, including sepsis, infection, prolonged surgery time, blood loss, and increased length of stay. Increasing focus on understanding of demographics, comorbidities, and…

Patient satisfaction and total hip arthroplasty: a review

Lauren Okafor, Antonia F. Chen · 1 Sep 2019

Primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been recognized as a reliable intervention for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis. Despite several notable advances in this procedure, studies have identified at least 7% of patients who remain dissatisfied. There is no general consensus on how to measure patient satisfaction in orthopedic surgery. However, validated tools have been used…

Artificial intelligence in orthopedic surgery: evolution, current state and future directions

Andrew P. Kurmis, Jamie R. Ianunzio · 2 Mar 2022

Technological advances continue to evolve at a breath-taking pace. Computer-navigation, robot-assistance and three-dimensional digital planning have become commonplace in many parts of the world. With near exponential advances in computer processing capacity, and the advent, progressive understanding and refinement of software algorithms, medicine and orthopaedic surgery have begun to delve into artificial intelligence (AI) systems.…

Epidemiology of primary and revision total knee arthroplasty: analysis of demographics, comorbidities and outcomes from the national inpatient sample

Fong H. Nham, Ishan Patel, Leo Zalikha et al. · 2 Apr 2023

INTRODUCTION: Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a preferred treatment for end-stage knee osteoarthritis. In the setting of a failed TKA, revision total knee arthroplasty (rTKA) acts as a salvage procedure and carries a higher risk compared to primary TKA. Given increased interest in postoperative outcomes from these procedures, a thorough understanding of the demographics,…

Reducing the risk of infection after total joint arthroplasty: preoperative optimization

Brielle Antonelli, Antonia F. Chen · 1 Aug 2019

Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is one of the most commonly performed procedures in orthopedic surgery, and as the demand for TJA increases over time, the number of concurrent complications such as surgical infection will also increase. There are multiple risk factors that independently increase the risk of surgical site infection (SSI) and periprosthetic joint infection…
