The Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut brings you a very special episode based on Knee Society Proceedings that highlight important research about knee arthroplasty. We have Kenneth A. Gustke, MD, Kimberly K. Tucker, MD and Jonathan M. Vigdorchik, MD joining us to dive in and discuss robotics vs. manual TKA.

They’re looking at insight safety and functional alignment outcomes. Our guests are reviewing articles that questions “does the location of fixation pins affect complication rates – is it safe or note?” Our panel also discuss the idea of adopting new technology – does it add additional time, does it increase cost? I think you’ll find the outcomes of these studies very interesting. Join us for this episode and don’t forget to subscribe for future recordings.

The Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut brings you a very special edition discussing the Fellowship Application process. In this episode, we had a wonderful panel to discuss the process – Joshua P. Rainey, MD, Mackenzie Kelly, MD, Kevin A. Sonn, MD, Reed Salmons, MD and Erik N. Zeegen, MD.

This episode’s moderator, Dr. Rainey began the podcast with the question to the panel “what is the purpose of doing a fellowship?” Dr. Rainey wanted to know if the panel found value in completing their fellowship and if a fellowship is even needed in today’s climate to be successful. If you’re wondering if an adult reconstruction fellowship puts you on the cutting edge of the latest technology and information, this may be the podcasts for you. Deciding what fellowship to choose and if having the fellowship makes you more marketable and attractive to employers are just some of things the panel discusses.

Enjoy, and thanks for listening to the Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut!

The Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut likes to cover and discuss articles that were recently published in the journal. For the month of May, Peter A. Gold, MD, Nathanael D. Heckmann, MD, Tom Roberts, MD and Joshua C. Rozell, MD summarized and shared their thoughts on articles published in the Journal of Arthroplasty on tranexamic acid. A medication that helps to control bleeding by promoting blood clot stabilization – is it safe? how effective is it? Those questions and more are discussed in this episode by our guest who thoroughly reviewed both papers/studies on tranexamic acid.

In this special episode of the Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut, Peter A. Gold, MD, Carl L. Herndon, MD, Bryan D. Springer, MD, Marney Reid, BS and Dana L. Jacoby, MBA came together to discuss recent articles published in the Journal of Arthroplasty surrounding risk management, value-based care and the next wave of how arthroplasty is paid for, how surgeons are compensated and how employment models work.

They share their thoughts and insight on how these bundle base-care models work. Here are the articles they refer to in this discussion:

In this special episode of the Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut, Serena Taylor, MD and Peter A. Gold, MD sat with special guest Jeremy M. Gililland, MD to discuss some of his recent articles published in the Journal of Arthroplasty.

A Multilingual Chatbot Can Effectively Engage Arthroplasty Patients Who Have Limited English Proficiency – this study was conducted to evaluate whether a multilingual chatbot could effectively engage LEP patients and improve their outcome after total joint.

Decreased Patellar Fractures and Subluxation With Patellar Component Replacement at Stage-One Spacer – Because periprosthetic joint infection is a devastating complication of total knee arthroplasty and often treated with 2-stage revision, we retrospectively assessed in this study whether replacing the patellar component with articulating stage-one spacers was associated with improved outcomes compared to

Motivations and Barriers for Women Orthopaedic Surgeons Considering Arthroplasty Fellowship – With arthroplasty being one of the least gender-diverse orthopaedic subspecialties and very few studies conducted to understand decisions for or against arthroplasty specifically, we thought that with this study it would be important to look into fellowship choice by women as that’s a very critical step in the process of increasing women recruitment.

In this special episode of The Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut, Kimberly K. Tucker, MD and Elizabeth G. Lieberman, MD spoke with experts Antonia F. Chen, MD, MBA and Michael A. Mont, MD about an international delphi study on wound closure and dressing management for both total knee and total hip joint arthroplasty. The study consisted of 20 orthopaedic surgeons from both Europe and North America. A consensus was achieved after three rounds of anonymous voting which required at least 75% agreement. The study was birth from the recognition that very little and certainly not a lot of great literature currently exists on wound management and dressing.
