Deep Learning: Orthopaedic Research Evolves for the Future

The practice of hip and knee arthroplasty has morphed since the turn of the century, as arthroplasty surgeons have been eager to adopt new technologies in attempts to continuously improve care. For example, in the year 2000, primary arthroplasty patients were routinely staying 5 to 7 days in the hospital [1] and requiring long-acting narcotics [2]. Today, patients are routinely discharged on the same day with well-controlled pain and even more frail patients only stay overnight. Of course, there is still room for improvement.
