Popliteal Artery Injury Associated With Total Knee Arthroplasty: Trends, Costs and Risk Factors

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2014
Popliteal artery injury is a relatively rare but potentially devastating complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We analyzed the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 1998 to 2009 to determine the actual incidence, risk factors and consequences of this complication.

Risk of Venous Thromboemboli, Readmissions, and Costs in Opioid Use Disorder Patients Following Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty

Surgical Technology Online, 2022
Introduction: Opioid use disorder (OUD) patients have an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), readmissions, and higher costs following primary elective primary total joint arthroplasty, but these risks have not yet been clarified for other arthroplasty surgeries.

Risk Adjustment for Episode-of-Care Costs After Total Joint Arthroplasty: What is the Additional Cost of Individual Comorbidities and Demographics?

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2021
Introduction: Concerns exist regarding the lack of risk adjustment in alternative payment models for patients who may use more resources in an episode of care. The purpose of this study was to quantify the additional costs associated with individual medical comorbidities and demographic variables.

Risk-Adjusted Cost Performance for 90-Day Total Knee Arthroplasty Episodes

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2020
Background: We propose a model to characterize the variation in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) episode payments in the U.S. Medicare population to establish a baseline prior to the full implementation of the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) model. Methods: We identified

Infection Risk and Cost-Effectiveness of Commercial Bags or Glass Bottles for Total Parenteral Nutrition

Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology, 1997
Abstract Objective: To determine whether the greater daily expense of administering total parenteral nutrition (TPN) via plastic bags changed once daily, compared to glass bottles changed thrice daily, could be offset by savings from a reduction in nosocomial infections.

Calculating the Cost and Risk of Comorbidities in Total Joint Arthroplasty in the United States

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2017
With increased scrutiny regarding the cost and safety of health care delivery, there is increasing interest in judicious patient selection for total joint arthroplasty (TJA) procedures. It is unknown which comorbidities incur the greatest increase in risk to the patient and cost to the system after TJA.

Safety, Efficacy, and Cost Savings of Single Parathyroid Hormone Measurement for Risk Stratification after Total Thyroidectomy

The American Surgeon™, 2013
The management of hypocalcemia (HC) after total thyroidectomy (TTx) is a challenge as TTx is transitioned into a same-day surgery. Measurement of parathyroid hormone (PTH) level after TTx may allow for prediction of postoperative HC and lead to shorter hospital stays.

Are Femoral Stems in Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty Cost Effective in High Fracture Risk Patients? A Risk Model and Cost Analysis

The Journal of Knee Surgery
AbstractFemoral stemmed total knee arthroplasty (FS TKA) may be used in patients deemed higher risk for periprosthetic fracture (PPF) to reduce PPF risk. However, the cost effectiveness of FS TKA has not been defined. Using a risk modeling analysis, we investigate the cost effectiveness of FS in primary TKA compared with the implant cost of revision to
