The prevalence of falls affects the wellbeing of aging adults and places an economic burden on the healthcare system. Integration of wearable sensors into existing fall risk assessment tools enables objective data collection that describes the functional ability of patients. In this study, supervised machine learning was applied to sensor-derived m...

It is undetermined whether using sensors for knee balancing in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) improves patient outcomes. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical outcomes of sensor balance (SB) with manual balance (MB) TKA with a minimum two-year follow-up. A consecutive series of 207 MB TKAs was compared with 222 SB TKAs between April 2014...

Unconstrained tripolar articulations have been theorized to increase hip stability. The purpose of this study is to report the performance of tripolar articulations in revision THA and identify factors associated with success and failure. Between 1994 and 2016, 67 revision THAs were performed with an unconstrained tripolar articulation. Mean follow...

The Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) and "forgotten joint" represent 2 treatment goals that arthroplasty surgeons often pursue. However, the actual Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12) that corresponds to the PASS and forgotten joint in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) patients remains unknown. One hundred ninety-three patients who underwe...

Outcome and survival after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be affected by patient characteristics. We examined the effect of case-mix on revision after primary THA using the Dutch Arthroplasty Register. Our cohort included all primary THAs (n = 218,214) performed in patients with osteoarthritis in the Netherlands between 2007 and 2018. Mul...

Periprosthetic joint infection is a major complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The intraoperative splash basin has been found to be a potential source of contamination. Although consensus recommendations against the use of splash basin have been made, splash basin use continues to be taught and utilized in practice. This study aims to in...

Clinically important thresholds improve interpretability of patient-reported outcomes. A threshold for a successful outcome does not exist for the Forgotten Joint Score (FJS). The purpose of this study is to determine a threshold score for the FJS, 1 and 2 years after total hip arthroplasty (THA). A retrospective analysis of 247 primary THA recipie...

Aseptic loosening remains a common cause of failure in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). There is an increased interest in using uncemented TKA to reduce this complication. Radiolucencies (RLs) following uncemented TKA can be concerning. We report on the 9-year history of RLs in patients with uncemented TKA. Twenty-one patients (26 knees) were treated...

Patellar resurfacing in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains a controversial issue after more than 4 decades of TKA. Despite a growing body of evidence from registry data, resurfacing is still based largely on a surgeon's preference and training. The purpose of this study is to provide long-term outcomes for patellar resurfaced compared to when th...

The effects of psychological factors on the short-term outcome after uncomplicated total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have been described in several studies. However, the effects of mental factors on the midterm (5-year) outcome have not been described in the literature. This study was performed to examine the influence of pain catastrophizing, anxiety,...
