Popliteal Artery Injury Associated With Total Knee Arthroplasty: Trends, Costs and Risk Factors
The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2014Popliteal 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.

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

The Appropriate Use of High-Cost, High-Risk Technologies: The Case of Total Parenteral Nutrition
QRB - Quality Review Bulletin, 1990An assessment of total parenteral nutrition (TPN), a high-cost, high-risk technology, is used to illustrate the importance of technology assessment to quality assessment. A review of the literature suggests that TPN is only sometimes effective and that it actually produces measurable harm by increasing complication rates in certain groups of patients ...

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.

AbstractBackgroundFlexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy is performed prior to thyroid surgery to evaluate the function of the recurrent laryngeal nerve. We assess the cost‐effectiveness of preoperative laryngoscopy prior to total thyroidectomy for a low‐risk thyroid cancer patient without dysphonia.MethodsA decision tree analysis was performed from a third ...

Journal of Women's Health & Gender-Based Medicine, 1999
The purpose of this study is to estimate the level of healthcare use and costs incurred by postmenopausal women overall and for these selected conditions: cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, breast cancer, and gynecological cancers. National healthcare survey and discharge data were used to estimate healthcare use by women aged 45 and older. Clinical

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2017
The risk of prosthetic joint infection increases with Staphylococcus aureus colonization. The cost-effectiveness of decolonization is controversial. We evaluated cost-effectiveness decolonization protocols in high-risk arthroplasty patients.An analytical model evaluated risk under 3 protocols: 4 swabs, 2 swabs, and nasal swab alone. These were compared

Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management, 2009
Abstract While risk is becoming the decision driver for a proper supply performance, and supplier selection (SS) is used to mitigate the supply risk, the few existing SS approaches for optimization under uncertainty are typically prescriptive. This shortcome has been overcome through a risk-efficiency-based supplier selection (REBaSS) approach, which
