Trends in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Utilization in Orthopedic Sports Medicine: A Scoping Review.

The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) developed by the National Institutes of Health provides a standardized method for collecting outcomes data from sports medicine patient populations. The objective of this scoping review is to report on PROMIS utilization in orthopedic sports medicine research and practice. We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library using keywords and database-specific subject headings to identify studies that reported PROMIS utilization.

A Tensionable and Retensionable Knotless Anchor Repair Construct for Compression After Reduction of Tibial Avulsion Fracture of Anterior Cruciate Ligament.

Tibial avulsion fractures comprise a subset of anterior cruciate ligament injuries. Primary fixation methods have traditionally used either screw or suture fixation. New anchor and suture technologies have led to the development of tensionable and retensionable techniques.

Rotator Cable Reconstruction: A Technique to Restore the Rotator Cable in the Setting of Large Cuff Tears.

The rotator cable is an essential biomechanical structure in the shoulder that is commonly injured in the setting of large rotator cuff tears. Surgical techniques designed to reconstruct the cable have followed advancements in our understanding of the biomechanics and anatomic importance of this structure. Owing to its role in load sharing and stress shielding of the rotator cuff crescent, rotator cable reconstruction offers the potential to reduce retear rates and promote longevity of rotator cuff repairs.
