Use of a Modified Rep Model in Primary Joint Arthroplasty: Lessons Learned.

Orthopedic implant device sales representatives ("reps") can provide intraoperative guidance based on their product knowledge, as part of their many responsibilities. However, for experienced high-volume arthroplasty surgeons, a representative may not be required in the room for most primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) procedures. The goal of this study was to describe the authors' experience with a modified rep model for primary TKA.
