Our next AAOS 2025 Annual Meeting poster is titled Mid-term Follow-up of Patellofemoral Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation. This study was performed by Dr. Bill Bugbee and his team at the Scripps Clinic. Dr. Bugbee was a guest on our show back in November 2023.  That is episode 59 and 60, if you want to go check it out.  In that episode, we discussed osteochondral allograft transplantation for various cartilage defects of the knee, including medial and lateral tibiofemoral, which are the more common locations for OCA transplantation.  This study focuses specifically on outcomes of OCA transplantation for patellofemoral cartilage defects.This study identified 127 patients undergoing OCA transplantation in the patellofemoral compartment – 51 to the patella, 47 to the trochlea and 29 bipolar patella and trochlea.  The most common indication was a degenerative cartilage lesion at 47%, followed by a traumatic cartilage injury at 25% and osteochondritis dissecans at 15%.  All patients had a minimum follow-up of 2 years.  OCA failure was defined as any reoperation that involved removal of the allograft.  Patient reported outcomes were also assessed pre-op and post-op, including the IKDC score and KOOS score.So, what did this study find?  First, reoperations occurred in 39% of the knees.  Rate of reoperation was not statistically significant between patella, trochlea and bipolar grafts.  Second, OCA failures occurred in 16% of the knees at a median 4.4 years following the index surgery, and the most common revision procedure was arthroplasty.  Although it did not reach statistical significance, trochlear grafts had a lower failure rate of 9% compared to patellar grafts at 20% and bipolar grafts at 21%.Overall, graft survivorship at 5 and 10 years was 91% and 82%, respectively.  Patients with patellar, trochlear and bipolar grafts all had significant improvement in IKDC scores and KOOS scores from preop to the latest follow-up and no statistically significant differences were observed between the groups.  Overall, 77% of patients reported being satisfied with the results of the OCA transplantation with no statistically significant differences in satisfaction between the groups.Also check out:Episode 91: Dr. Tom DeBerardino 0n Advances in Patellofemoral Cartilage Restoration

We are kicking off a special series of episodes to recap the new research presented at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting, our largest orthopaedic conference. This year, over 20,000 orthopedic professionals gathered at the AAOS meeting in San Diego to take part. The educational program was comprised of instructional course lectures, video theater, live surgeries, podium presentations and research posters. Over the next several episodes we're going to be reviewing seven sports medicine posters that were presented at the AAOS meeting. On this podcast we try to review the most updated literature on different sports medicine topics. So, reviewing some of the posters that were just presented at AAOS is particularly exciting for us because this is very new data. So new that most of this data has not even been published yet. So, let's get started with our first poster, titled Return to Performance Following UCL Surgery in Major League Baseball Pitchers.  While return to play is very important for both players and teams, arguably even more important is return to performance.  With advancements in pitch tracking analysis and analytics, it is now possible to determine return to full performance, based on comparison of preop and postop metrics.This retrospective analysis was performed by Dr. Christopher Ahmad and team at Columbia University. 119 MLB pictures who underwent primary UCL reconstruction or repair were evaluated. Return to play rates at 1- 2- and 3-years postop were reported. Additionally, the authors looked at performance data, including innings pitched as well as pitch-tracking data.Overall, surgery remains an effective option for MLB pitchers to return to play and performance following a UCL injury.  However, athletes should be counseled that certain pitches may be negatively impacted postoperatively.

On today's episode we're focusing on hip preservation with Dr. Andrea Spiker. We have some great articles for you that contribute well to our conversation on femoroacetabular impingement or “FAI”, hip dysplasia and the arthroscopic and open surgical treatments for these conditions. As always, links to all of the papers that we discuss on this show can be found on our podcast website – www.thesportsdocspod.comWe'll start off our discussion today with an article from the June 2018 issue of The Lancet titled “Hip arthroscopy versus best conservative care for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.” This multicenter RCT included 348 patients across 28 hospitals in the UK and compared conservative treatment with physical therapy to surgical treatment with hip arthroscopy. The authors reported that while both groups improved after treatment, patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for treatment of FAI demonstrated significantly greater improvement in hip-related quality of life compared to patients who had nonsurgical treatment. Then, from the September issue of AJSM this year, we review an article titled “Progression of Osteoarthritis at Long-term Follow-up in Patients Treated for Symptomatic Femoroacetabular Impingement with Hip Arthroscopy Compared with Nonsurgically Treated Patients.” Aaron Krych and team at the Mayo Clinic reported significantly less progression of arthritic changes in surgical patients compared to non-op. Seven percent of patients in the surgical group ultimately underwent a total hip replacement compared to 12% in the non-op group. Risk factors for failure of non-op treatment included male sex, presence of a CAM morphology, increased age and initial arthritic joint changes at diagnosis.  We are joined today by Dr. Andrea Spiker, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon at the University of Wisconsin-Madison who is dual fellowship trained in sports medicine and hip preservation. She is a team physician for UW Badger Athletics and provides head orthopedic coverage for the UW Men's and Women's Basketball teams. She is also the Program Director of the UW Orthopedic Surgery Sports Medicine Fellowship Program. Dr. Spiker is an active member in numerous orthopedic societies including AAOS, AOSSM and AANA, and has published extensively on the topic of hip preservation, so we're very excited to hear all that she has to share on this topic today.

On this episode, we are joined by April O'Connell to discuss exercise dosing for patients who have sustained injuries of their upper extremity.

Welcome to another episode of Game Plan! As you might remember from our episode on ACL graft choices, these Game Plan episodes are specifically designed for patients – to hopefully answer some of the questions you have about the most common sports medicine conditions and surgical treatments. We're continuing with our favorite topic today – ACL tears – but today's episode is going to focus on risk factors for ACL tears. Specifically, which of these risk factors can we modify to lessen the chance of sustaining ACL tear and how do we decrease that risk.Please note that this episode is going to focus strictly on ACL reconstruction. For more information on ACL rehab check out our recent two-part episode with Candace Townley Cox back in April of this year. We've covered the addition of “LET” or “lateral extra-articular tenodesis” to ACL reconstruction in an Overtime episode in November of 2021 and again with Dr. Brian Waterman live at the AAOS meeting back in March of this year. And, of course, our first Game Plan episode was on how to choose the best ACL graft for reconstruction, so definitely check that out.

Our next poster is titled The Utility of Stress Ultrasound in Identifying Risk Factors for Elbow Ulnar Collateral Ligament Rupture: A Longitudinal Study of 203 Professional Baseball Players. This study was performed by your colleagues at the Rothman Institute and aimed to identify anatomic risk factors on dynamic ultrasound that may predispose players to future UCL injury. The authors found that players who ultimately required UCL reconstruction had greater ulnohumeral joint rest space, higher rates of hypoechoic foci and increased UCL thickness on ultrasound compared to players who did not require UCLR.

Our next AAOS 2024 Annual Meeting poster is titled The Statistical Fragility of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Lateral Epicondylitis: A Systematic Review and Simulated Fragility Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. Our podcast tries to stay far away from statistical analysis and methodology breakdown; however, this poster draws attention to an important issue. Often in orthopedics we try to use statistically significant findings –defined as those with a p value of less than .05 – from Level I randomized controlled trials to guide our clinical decision making. This poster suggests that is not all we should be looking at, particularly as it pertains to the use of PRP for lateral epicondylitis.

Our next poster is titled Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair with Bioinductive Patch Achieves Equivalent Patient-Reported Outcomes At 1 Year and was performed by Dr. Stephanie Muh and team at Wayne State University and Henry Ford Medical Center. The purpose of this study was to compare patient-reported outcomes, range of motion and complications of patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair augmented with a bovine bioinductive patch compared to standard repair.

Our next AAOS 2024 Annual Meeting poster is titled The Influence of Donor Demographics on Outcomes following Knee Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation. This study was performed by Dr. Brian Cole and Dr. Adam Yanke at Rush and aimed to assess the impact of donor sex and age, donor-recipient sex mismatch, and graft storage duration on clinical outcomes and failure rates in knee OCA transplantation. The authors found that in contrast to previous literature, no substantial survival difference was observed for sex- mismatched OCA donors and recipients in terms of reoperation or failure.

Today, we're kicking off a special series of episodes to recap the new research presented at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting, our largest orthopaedic conference. This year, over 20,000 orthopedic professionals gathered at the AAOS meeting in San Francisco to take part.The educational program was comprised of instructional course lectures, video theater, live surgeries, podium presentations and research posters. Over the next several episodes we're going to be reviewing seven sports medicine posters that were presented at the AAOS meeting. On this podcast we try to review the most updated literature on different sports medicine topics. So, reviewing some of the posters that were just presented at AAOS is particularly exciting for us because this is very new data.  So new that most of this data has not even been published yet.We're joined by Dr. Meghan Bishop to get her take on these poster presentations. Dr. Bishop is fellowship-trained, board certified orthopaedic sports surgeon at the Rothman Orthopaedic Institute in Philadelphia. After graduating from George Washington University Medical School, she completed her residency in Orthopaedic Surgery at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. Dr. Bishop then completed a fellowship in Sports Medicine and Shoulder Surgery at Hospital for Special Surgery. She is the orthopedic medical director for the Philadelphia Marathon, Chair of the AOSSM Early Career Members Committee and is a member of the Editorial Board of AJSM and VJSM. She is very active in research, so we are excited to hear her thoughts on these posters over the new few episodes.

In this episode of the DeviceTalks Weekly Podcast, Co-hosts Tom Salemi and Chris Newmarker interview Brad Estes, CEO of CytexOrtho, the winner of a pitch contest staged by AAOS. The company is developing implants that could serve as an alternative therapy to total hip replacement. In our main interview, Tom interviews David Wilson, CEO of InnovHeart, a multinational startup that's developing transcatheter mitral valve replacement systems to treat patients with mitral valve disease. Wilson talks about his journey into medtech, his decision to shift from engineering to sales, and how life as a global president of a medical device business differs from being a start-up CEO.

On today's episode we're focusing on hip preservation with Dr. Andrea Spiker. We have some great articles for you that contribute well to our conversation on femoroacetabular impingement or “FAI”, hip dysplasia and the arthroscopic and open surgical treatments for these conditions. As always, links to all of the papers that we discuss on this show can be found on our podcast website – www.thesportsdocspod.comWe'll start off our discussion today with an article from the June 2018 issue of The Lancet titled “Hip arthroscopy versus best conservative care for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.” This multicenter RCT included 348 patients across 28 hospitals in the UK and compared conservative treatment with physical therapy to surgical treatment with hip arthroscopy. The authors reported that while both groups improved after treatment, patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for treatment of FAI demonstrated significantly greater improvement in hip-related quality of life compared to patients who had nonsurgical treatment. Then, from the September issue of AJSM this year, we review an article titled “Progression of Osteoarthritis at Long-term Follow-up in Patients Treated for Symptomatic Femoroacetabular Impingement with Hip Arthroscopy Compared with Nonsurgically Treated Patients.” Aaron Krych and team at the Mayo Clinic reported significantly less progression of arthritic changes in surgical patients compared to non-op. Seven percent of patients in the surgical group ultimately underwent a total hip replacement compared to 12% in the non-op group. Risk factors for failure of non-op treatment included male sex, presence of a CAM morphology, increased age and initial arthritic joint changes at diagnosis.  We are joined today by Dr. Andrea Spiker, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon at the University of Wisconsin-Madison who is dual fellowship trained in sports medicine and hip preservation. She is a team physician for UW Badger Athletics and provides head orthopedic coverage for the UW Men's and Women's Basketball teams. She is also the Program Director of the UW Orthopedic Surgery Sports Medicine Fellowship Program. Dr. Spiker is an active member in numerous orthopedic societies including AAOS, AOSSM and AANA, and has published extensively on the topic of hip preservation, so we're very excited to hear all that she has to share on this topic today.

Welcome to another episode of Game Plan! As you might remember from our episode on ACL graft choices, these Game Plan episodes are specifically designed for patients – to hopefully answer some of the questions you have about the most common sports medicine conditions and surgical treatments. We're continuing with our favorite topic today – ACL tears – but today's episode is going to focus on risk factors for ACL tears. Specifically, which of these risk factors can we modify to lessen the chance of sustaining ACL tear and how do we decrease that risk.Please note that this episode is going to focus strictly on ACL reconstruction. For more information on ACL rehab check out our recent two-part episode with Candace Townley Cox back in April of this year. We've covered the addition of “LET” or “lateral extra-articular tenodesis” to ACL reconstruction in an Overtime episode in November of 2021 and again with Dr. Brian Waterman live at the AAOS meeting back in March of this year. And, of course, our first Game Plan episode was on how to choose the best ACL graft for reconstruction, so definitely check that out.

It's a beautiful Friday in auto as we talk about a recent study showing the effects of high heat on EV range. We also talk about the recent consumer satisfaction reports regarding infotainment, as well as what we can learn from the ongoing writers and actors strike. With much of the U.S., and many other parts of the world experiencing a significant heat wave, a new study released by Recurrent revealed that extreme heat can significantly reduce the driving range EVs, with some experiencing as much as a 31% dropTemps over 100 degrees fahrenheit seems to be a major strike point while the decline is less severe at cooler temperatures, with an average range reduction of 5% at 90 degrees and 2.8% at 80 degrees.The analysis was based on data from 17,000 vehicles, including 65 models of EVs and plug-in hybrids, with Tesla's models showing the least range degradation.Greg Less, the technical director of the University of Michigan Battery Lab, explained that the degradation in range under extreme heat conditions is fundamentally linked to the chemistry of the battery. "Once you're above [104 degrees Fahrenheit] you start to have a breakdown of the passive emission layer on the anode,  causing consumption of the liquid electrolyte," said Less.Growing dissatisfaction with complex car infotainment systems has resulted in the first ever consecutive yearly decline in owner satisfaction, according to JD Power's APEAL Study as even more drivers are opting for smartphone-mirroring systems like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto over built-in controls.Only 56% of owners now prefer to use their car's built-in system to play audio, down from 70% in 2020. Less than half prefer to use in-built navigation, voice recognition, or call-making controls.Consumers appear to be more accepting of native car operating systems if they're developed by Google, as vehicles with Android Automotive's operating system, AAOS, scored higher in infotainment satisfaction than those without.However, if there are no Google bundled apps, the AAOS are the lowestJD Power found the largest year-on-year satisfaction decline was with vehicle exteriors, decreasing to 888 from 894, particularly with 2023's new models.In Hollywood's largest strike in 60 years, both actors and writers have halted work, revealing the divide between traditional entertainment companies and streaming giants like Netflix. The conflict stems from the industry's major shift from lucrative cable-TV and rerun sales to the less profitable streaming industry, with unions pushing for practices from the older model to be continued.New wave streaming companies like Netflix, Disney +, and Amazon Prime could leverage their advantage of having much more content in the hopper to wait out negotiations while traditional networks are already planning to show reruns and international programming.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

Lengthy prior authorization processes delay care for patients and contribute to physician burnout. Using Texas as a case study, this episode explains how solutions like the federal version of the state's GOLD Card law would streamline approvals for medically necessary care as well as make insurance requirements more electronic and transparent.  More on AAOS' prior authorization advocacy efforts: aaos.org/advocacy/advocacy-action-center/prior-authorization Previous podcast episode on prior authorization: aaos.org/publications/the-bone-beat-orthopaedic-podcast-channel/the-bone-beat-advocacy-podcast/episode-19 2023 Orthopaedic Advocacy Week: aaos.org/advocacy/get-involved/orthopaedic-advocacy-week Guest: Christine Kean, COO, The San Antonio Orthopaedic Group Host: Adam Bruggeman, MD, FAAOS, FAOrthA, Chair, AAOS Advocacy Council

Innovation in orthopaedic care faces stiff headwinds, but the relationships among stakeholders are not zero-sum. Following the in-person AAOS/FDA Townhall during the 2023 AAOS Annual Meeting in Las Vegas, leaders from both organizations sat down for an intimate conversation on the ways we can evolve together to improve patient care. They emphasized the need for collaboration, innovation, and reliable data to improve patient outcomes and shape the future of the field. Listen as we delve into the topic of innovation in orthopaedic medical devices, products and technology. More from AAOS on devices.

We are very excited to introduce you to a brand-new type of episode called Game Plan!We've been doing this podcast now for over 2 years and during that time we've had more and more of our patients listening to our episodes to learn more about their condition, what treatment options they have to choose from and what to expect from surgery. So, we decided to create some episodes specifically for our patient population, to hopefully answer some of the questions they have about the most common sports medicine conditions and surgical treatments. And what better topic to start with than ACL… specifically, the question we get asked all the time: What graft should I choose to reconstruct my ACL?Please note that this episode is going to focus strictly on ACL reconstruction. For more information on ACL rehab check out our recent two-part episode with Candace Townley Cox back in April of this year. We've covered the addition of “LET” or “lateral extra-articular tenodesis” to ACL reconstruction in an Overtime episode in November of 2021 and again with Dr. Brian Waterman live at the AAOS meeting back in March of this year. We also have a mini episode coming out on ACL repair, rather than reconstruction, so stay tuned for that!
