Who Benefits From Hip Arthroplasty or Knee Arthroplasty? Preoperative Patient-reported Outcome Thresholds Predict Meaningful Improvement
CONCLUSION: We found that patients who experienced meaningful improvements (MCIDs) mainly differed from those who did not regarding their preoperative PROM scores. We further identified that patients undergoing HA or KA with a score above 0.7 or 0.6, respectively, on the EQ-5D-5L, below 42 or 39 on the HOOS-PS or KOOS-PS, or below 3.5 or 6.5 on a 10-point joint-specific pain scale presurgery had no meaningful benefit from surgery. The thresholds can support clinical decision-making. For example, when thresholds indicate that a meaningful improvement is not likely to be achieved after surgery, other treatment options may be...

Are There Racial and Ethnic Variations in Patient Attitudes Toward Hip and Knee Arthroplasty for Osteoarthritis? A Systematic Review
CONCLUSION: The observation that lower preference for discretionary arthroplasty among Black and Hispanic patients is independent from socioeconomic factors and is related to accommodation of aging, preference for agency (home remedies), greater consideration of costs, recovery concerns, and potential harms directs orthopaedic surgeons to find ways to balance equitable access to specialty care and discretionary surgery while avoiding undermining effective accommodation strategies. It is important not to assume that lower use of discretionary surgery represents poorer care or is a surrogate marker for discrimination.LEVEL O...

What Are the Underlying Mental Health Constructs Associated With Level of Capability in People with Knee and Hip Osteoarthritis?
CONCLUSION: This study simplifies the multitude of mental health assessments into two underlying factors: cognition (pain coping) and feelings (mood). When considered together, the association between capability and pain coping was dominant, signaling the importance of a mental health assessment in orthopaedic care to go beyond focusing on unhelpful feelings and mood (assessment of depression and anxiety) alone to include measures of pain coping, such as the Pain Catastrophizing Scale or Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, both of which have been used extensively in patients with musculoskeletal conditions.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Le...

Psoriasis Is a Risk Factor for Surgical Site Infection After Primary TKA
CONCLUSION: Patients with psoriasis had higher overall rates of SSI at 2 years of follow-up than patients without psoriasis. Our findings suggest that psoriasis is a risk factor for superficial SSI after primary TKA and is an important comorbidity for surgeons to consider before surgery. Further research is needed to assess the role of adjunctive interventions in patients with psoriasis to mitigate the elevated odds of superficial SSI.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II, prognostic study.PMID:38376244 | DOI:10.1097/CORR.0000000000003011 (Source: Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research)
