Objective: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are traditionally used to track patients' recoveries after spine surgery. Wearable accelerometers have adjunctive value because of the continuous, granular, and objective data they provide. We conducted a prospective study of lumbar laminectomy patients to 1) determine if time-series data from wearable accelerometers could delineate phases of recovery and 2) compare accelerometry data to PROMs during recovery tracking.

Objective: Previous studies comparing total and reverse shoulder arthroplasty (TSA/RSA) are subject to surgeon selection bias. This study objective is to compare the outcomes and cost
of outpatient TSA/RSA to inpatient TSA/RSA.

Economic Impact of Comorbidities in Total-Ankle Arthroplasty and Ankle Arthrodesis
Chan JJ, Guzman JZ, Garden E, Chan JC, Poeran J, Zubizarreta N, Mazumdar M, Vulcano E.
Objective: The demand for total-ankle arthroplasty (TAA) and ankle arthrodesis surgery is increasing. Findings from other orthopaedic populations suggest an increasing comorbidity
burden among those planned for surgery; however, data on TAA and ankle arthrodesis is limited. The goal of this study is to examine the comorbidity burden for TAA and ankle arthrodesis.

Objective: Back pain and spinal pathologies are associated with obesity in juveniles and adults, yet studies identifying causal relationships are lacking and none investigate sex differences. This study determined if high-fat (HF) diet causes structural and functional changes to vertebrae and intervertebral discs (IVDs); if these changes are modulated in mice with systematic ablation for the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE-KO); and if these changes are sex-dependent.

Objective: The recent shift toward value-based health care and bundled payments in orthopedic surgery has increased the use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in standard clinical care. Such assessments of patient function and satisfaction are particularly important among total-joint arthroplasty (TJA) patients to monitor postoperative health.

Objective: Currently there is a lack of insight into what total-joint replacement (TJR) surgeons and care teams perceive to be the greatest barriers to collection and use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs). The goal of this study was to provide insight on this topic using a
multi-institutional survey.

Long-Term Follow-Up of Perianchor Cyst Formation After Rotator Cuff Repair
Matijakovich D, Solomon D, Benitez CL, Huang HH, Poeran J, Berger N, Lebaschi A, Seneviratne A.
Objective: Perianchor cyst formation (PCF) can occur after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) anchors; however, little is known about PCF after all-suture anchor (ASA) use.

Objective: Ankle arthrodesis and total-ankle arthroplasty (TAA) are often associated with significant postoperative pain. While this may be mitigated by the use of peripheral nerve blocks (PNB), large-scale data are lacking. Using national data, we aimed to evaluate PNB utilization pattern and its impact on outcomes.

Safety of Tranexamic Acid in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty in High-Risk Patients
Poeran J, Chan JJ, Zubizarreta N, Mazumdar M, Galatz LM, Moucha CS.
Objective: With increasing use of tranexamic acid in total hip and knee arthroplasties, safety concerns remain. Using national claims data, this study examined tranexamic acid use in patients with preexisting comorbidities. The hypothesis was that tranexamic acid use is
not associated with increased complication risk in hip and knee arthroplasty patients with comorbidities.

Objective: Under bundled payment models, gainsharing presents an important mechanism to ensure engagement and reward innovation. We hypothesized that metric selection, metric targets, and risk adjustment would impact surgeons' performance in gainsharing models.

Examining the Association of Knee Pain with Modifiable Cardiometabolic Risk Factors
Charen DA, Solomon D, Zubizarreta N, Poeran J, Colvin AC.
Objective: A well-established link exists between obesity and knee osteoarthritis, and recent research has implicated diabetes mellitus as a potential cause of cartilage degeneration. The objective of this study was to use the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database to examine the association between knee pain and various metabolic factors.

Objective: Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to reduce blood loss and transfusion risk in various orthopedic surgeries including shoulder arthroplasty. However, concerns still exist
regarding its use in patients with a history of thrombotic events. Using national claims data, we aimed to study the safety of TXA administration in shoulder arthroplasty patients with a history of thrombotic events.

Objective: Given increasing demand for primary knee arthroplasties, revision surgery is also expected to increase, with periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) a main driver of costs. Recent data on national trends is lacking. We aimed to assess trends in PJI in total knee arthroplasty revisions and hospitalization costs. From the National Inpatient Sample (2003–2016), we extracted data on total-knee arthroplasty revisions (n = 782,449). We assessed trends in PJI prevalence and (inflation-adjusted) hospitalization costs (total as well as per-day costs) for
all revisions and stratified by hospital teaching status (rural/urban by teaching status), hospital bed size (≤299, 300–499, and ≥500 beds), and hospital region (Northeast, Midwest, South, and West).
