Mashup Score: 6High Prevalence of Spinopelvic Risk Factors in Patients With Post-Operative Hip Dislocations - 1 year(s) ago
Excessive standing posterior pelvic tilt (PT), lumbar spine stiffness, low pelvic incidence (PI), and severe sagittal spinal deformity (SSD) have been linked to increased dislocation rates. We aimed to determine the prevalence of these 4 parameters in a cohort of unstable total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients and compare these to a large representative control population of primary THA patients.

Mashup Score: 3The Cost of Stiffness After Total Knee Arthroplasty - 1 year(s) ago
Stiffness after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is debilitating and poorly understood. A heterogenous approach to the treatment is often utilized, including both nonoperative and operative treatment modalities. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of treatments used between stiff and non-stiff TKA groups and their financial impact.

Mashup Score: 3Patient Reported Outcomes Following Intraarticular Hyaluronic Acid for Knee Osteoarthritis - 1 year(s) ago
Intraarticular hyaluronic acid (IAHA) has been commonly used in the management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). This study sought to assess patient reported outcomes (PRO) following different formulations of HA injections for patients who have knee OA.

Mashup Score: 2Licensed and Liable. Insurance, Road Regulations, and Driving After Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Surgery - 1 year(s) ago
There is a reliance on surgeons to provide advice to patients regarding safe return to driving following hip or knee arthroplasty. Concerns arise that misinformation may place the surgeon in a position of potential legal implication. The purpose of this article is to inform surgeons of their role in accordance with advice from insurance companies and transport regulatory bodies.

Mashup Score: 2
Consensus regarding prior dental problems on the outcomes of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients is lacking. Therefore, our objectives were to determine the association of dental caries or dental implant placement in TKA patients on the following: (1) medical complications; (2) health care utilization (lengths of stay and readmissions); (3) implant-related complications; and (4) expenditures.

Dental caries or implant placement may reflect overall worse medical condition resulting in more complications and higher costs after #TKA. https://t.co/hXcl6GqEgW https://t.co/cfwPaNVecr

Mashup Score: 1Manipulation Following Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty is Associated With Increased Rates of Infection and Revision - 1 year(s) ago
Stiffness following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a disabling complication and manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) is often performed as an early intervention. Few studies have focused on the revision risk, infection risk, demographics, and clinical outcomes in Medicare patients undergoing MUA following primary TKA.

How often do you have to perform MUA after #TKA? This study found 2.6% with increased complications. https://t.co/V5GBKkT8ph https://t.co/ZKnDMAgcTB

The growing variety of total hip arthroplasty implants necessitates a standardized, simple, and brand-neutral language to precisely classify femoral components. Although previous classifications have been useful, they need updating to include stems that have current surface treatment technologies, modularity, collar features, and other geometric characteristics.

Mashup Score: 12Adverse Events After Total Hip Arthroplasty are not Sufficiently Characterized by 30-Day Follow-Up: A Database Study - 1 year(s) ago
Many previous studies of total hip arthroplasty (THA) have focused on adverse events occurring within 30 days of surgery. Studies examining 90-day postoperative adverse events have typically not focused on the timing of adverse events within that period. The current study evaluated the rate and timing of adverse events within 90 days of THA.

Mashup Score: 1Total Joint Arthroplasty Utilization After Orthopaedic Surgery Referral: Identifying Disparities Along the Care Pathway - 1 year(s) ago
Although racial and ethnic disparities in total joint arthroplasty (TJA) have been thoroughly described, only a few studies have sought to determine exactly where along the care pathway these disparities are perpetuated. The purpose of this study was to investigate disparities in TJA utilization occurring after patients who had diagnosed hip or knee osteoarthritis were referred to a group of…
