Return to Golf After Hip Arthroscopy: A Systematic Review of the Literature.

Context: Patients experiencing pain from femoral acetabular impingement and considering hip arthroscopy may be concerned about their timeline to resume activities they enjoy, such as golf.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to review current literature on return-to-play data after hip arthroscopy and to provide clinicians with data to set proper expectations with patients.

Data Sources: The following terms were used to search PubMed and Embase electronic databases on October 18, 2023: hip, arthroscopy, arthroscopic, golf.

Heartbeats in Distress: Unveiling Cardiac Sarcoidosis Through Palpitations.

Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS), a rare complication of systemic sarcoidosis, can have subtle or no symptoms. It is characterized by granuloma formation in the myocardium, which can occur in isolation or alongside systemic sarcoidosis. Clinical manifestations include conduction system disorders (e.

Factors influencing physical therapy utilization after shoulder surgery: a retrospective review.

Background: Postoperative physical therapy (PT) is a cornerstone to achieve optimal patient outcomes. Access to postoperative PT can be limited by insurance type, coverage, and cost. With copayments (CP) for PT as high as $75 per visit, PT can be costprohibitive for patients.

Impact of sleep deficiency on surgical performance: a prospective assessment.

Study Objectives: Sleep deficiency can adversely affect the performance of resident physicians, resulting in greater medical errors. However, the impact of sleep deficiency on surgical outcomes, particularly among attending surgeons, is less clear.

Methods: Sixty attending surgeons from academic and community departments of surgery or obstetrics and gynecology were studied prospectively using direct observation and self-report to explore the effect of sleep deprivation on patient safety, operating room communication, medical errors, and adverse events while operating under 2 conditions, post-call (defined as > 2 hours of nighttime clinical duties) and non-post-call.

Complication and revision rates after reverse total shoulder revision from hemiarthroplasty: a systematic review.

Background: Thus, the purpose of the present study was to (1) characterize common postoperative complications and (2) quantify the rates of revision in patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty to reverse total shoulder arthroplasty revisional surgery. We hypothesize that hardware loosenings will be the most common complication to occur in the sample, with the humeral component being the most common loosening.

Methods: This systematic review adhered to PRISMA reporting guideline.

Patients' perception of physical therapy after shoulder surgery.

Background: Formal physical therapy (PT) traditionally has been a critical part of postoperative recovery, but recently, because of cost containment, coverage of PT has become limited. Alternatives to formal PT have been proposed, including telerehabilitation, internet-based PT (IBPT), and home-based physician-guided PT. The purpose of this study was to understand patient perceptions of PT, the benefits, perception of improvements, access to PT, and alternative forms of PT after shoulder surgery.

An integrated educational and multimodal approach to achieving an opioid-free postoperative course after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

Background: In the realm of shoulder surgery, arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) is one of the most painful procedures and is often associated with higher opioid consumption. The purpose of this study was to evaluate effectiveness of preoperative and postoperative patient education and multimodal pain management to achieve an opioid-free postoperative recovery after RCR.

Methods: Sixty patients who underwent RCR were divided in 2 groups.
