The Journal of Arthroplasty's: The Cut will expose students, residents, fellows, AAHKS members and others in the field of arthroplasty to topics in The Journal of Arthroplasty (JOA) and discuss practical applications. While articles will be discussed with social media ambassadors and experts weighing in with practical experiences.

The Journal of Arthroplasty: The Cut brings you another very special episode based on Knee Society Proceedings that highlight important research about knee arthroplasty. In this episode of The Cut, our host Kimberly K. Tucker, MD welcomed our guests Antonia F. Chen, MD, MBA and Andrew Engh, MD to discuss Patient Reported Outcomes and what this means for you now that Medicare has made them a requirement in quality benchmarks. In this podcast, we review two award-winning studies. The first study dives into the various ways to optimize patient reported outcome collection within health systems. Dr. Chen shares what she feels is the most important change hospitals should focus on to make patient reported outcome collection both clinically meaningful and operational sustainable. The other award-winning paper discusses paper vs. electronic data capture in knee arthroplasty. Learn if compared to paper forms, does electronic data collection increase follow-up rates or improve data quality at lower costs. I think you’ll find this recording of JOA: The Cut to be filled with lots of valuable nuggets that can possibly shape and improve your practice.

The Journal of Arthroplasty's: The Cut brings you a very special episode based on Knee Society Proceedings that highlight important research about knee arthroplasty. In this special episode, we’re very fortunate to have Leonard T. Buller, MD, Nathanael D. Heckmann, MD, Kimberly K. Tucker, MD and James D. Slover, MD, MS, join us to discuss various studies on different alignment strategies that impact balance, motion and outcomes. Knee alignment has always been central to how surgeons think about knee replacement from the long-standing standard of mechanical alignment to the more patient specific philosophy of kinematic and functional alignment. With robotics and large data sets, we’re starting to see these concepts tested in new ways. You don’t want to miss this recording! Thanks for listening to The Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut!

The Journal of Arthroplasty's: The Cut brings you a very special episode based on Knee Society Proceedings that highlight important research about knee arthroplasty. We have Kenneth A. Gustke, MD, Kimberly K. Tucker, MD and Jonathan M. Vigdorchik, MD joining us to dive in and discuss robotics vs. manual TKA. They’re looking at insight safety and functional alignment outcomes. Our guests are reviewing articles that questions “does the location of fixation pins affect complication rates – is it safe or note?” Our panel also discuss the idea of adopting new technology – does it add additional time, does it increase cost? I think you’ll find the outcomes of these studies very interesting. Join us for this episode and don’t forget to subscribe for future recordings.
