Waiting Time Prioritisation for Public and Private Providers: Evidence From Hip Replacement Surgery

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Waiting times for planned health care treatments have been increasing in England and other OECD countries. One policy to reduce the impact of waiting times on patients' health is for doctors to prioritise patients according to their health status. This study tests the extent to which publicly‐funded patients in poorer health are prioritised on

Distal Femoral Replacement With a Metaphyseal Sleeve: Outcomes and Risk Factors for Subsidence

open access: yesArthroplasty Today
In this study, we report on the outcomes of our experience using a metaphyseal sleeve with a distal femoral replacement (DFR) and review the risk factors for sleeve subsidence over a 3 year period.

3D printing of cell‐free implants: A promising avenue for cartilage regeneration and joint preservation

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This article explores the potential of 3D‐printed, cell‐free implants or devices for cartilage regeneration. It highlights the benefits of using biomaterial‐driven activation and modulation of ESCPs for endogenous healing of heterogeneous tissues, addressing challenges in implant design, repair mechanisms, and regulatory hurdles to create scalable ...

Knee Arthroplasty in Severe Varus Advanced Knee Osteoarthritis with Proximal Tibia Malunion: a case report

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Alignment is crucial for successful knee arthroplasty.1 Tibia malunion will make arthroplasty more challenging. In this case, we present advanced knee osteoarthritis with tibia vara due to malunion that needs corrective osteotomy during knee arthroplasty.

MRI of Total Hip Arthroplasty: Successful Ripple Artifact Reduction Using Wavelet Domain Filtering

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Slice encoding for metal artifact correction (SEMAC) is used in MRI for total hip arthroplasties for metal artifact reduction. However, ripple artifacts often arise near the implant, impairing diagnosis in affected regions. Hypothesis Applying a wavelet domain filter (WD‐Filter) might reduce ripple artifacts and improve image ...

Ultrasound‐Guided Thoracic Paravertebral Block With Liposomal Versus Standard Bupivacaine for Older Patients After Thoracoscopic Surgery

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to investigate the effect of thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) with liposomal bupivacaine (LB) before anesthesia induction on postoperative pain, quality of recovery (QoR), and opioid consumption in older patients after video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).

Abduction and adduction malpositioned lateral radiographs cannot be used for proper assessment of the posterior tibial slope

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare medial posterior tibial slope (mPTS) measurements on abduction/adduction malpositioned versus properly positioned lateral knee radiographs within the same patients. We hypothesized that malpositioning would significantly alter mPTS values and potentially change surgical classification at the commonly used 12° threshold for ...

Reliable labels, uncertain meaning: Classifications for medial meniscus posterior root tears lack consensus and arthroscopy‐anchored accuracy

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Multiple, nonharmonised classification systems exist for posterior medial meniscus root tears (PMMRT), yet their diagnostic accuracy and observer reliability remain unclear. This PRISMA‐2020 systematic review aimed to catalogue available PMMRT classifications and to summarise accuracy and reliability metrics.
