Article Synopsis
- The audit aimed to assess and improve the completeness and accuracy of the National Joint Registry (NJR) dataset specifically for elbow arthroplasty surgeries.
- In a two-phase approach, Phase 1 compared NJR data with NHS England Hospital Episode Statistics (HES), identifying thousands of unmatched and inaccurate records, particularly for radial head arthroplasties (RHAs).
- Phase 2 involved collaboration among 142 NHS hospitals to correct and update records, resulting in an improved completeness of the NJR dataset from 63% to 93% and accuracy from 94% to 98%.
Significantly displaced intra-articular glenoid fractures treated nonoperatively have been found to have poor functional outcomes. For this reason, most are treated with open reduction and internal fixation. Conventional open techniques involve extensive exposure and soft tissue dissection.

Locking plate fixation offers increased angular stability and, theoretically, better fixation in osteoporotic bone. This study presents our results with the use of locking plate fixation for Vancouver Type B1 and Type C periprosthetic fractures following total hip arthroplasty (THA).
