Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to assess day-case surgery success rates for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (mUKA), investigating the reasons for patients not being discharged on the same day despite eligibility.
  • - Conducted over a year with 6,142 patients, the study found that 34% of THA and TKA patients and 52% of mUKA patients were eligible for day-case surgery, with mUKA showing the highest success rates (72%) when surgeries were completed before 1:00 pm.
  • - Key reasons for day-case failures included issues with patient mobilization,

Purpose: We aimed to establish patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) reference data for a cohort of patients with prior patellar dislocation without previous knee surgery.

Methods: All inhabitants of the Faroe Islands aged 15-19 years were sent an online survey via secure email to establish a national cohort. They were asked to answer questions regarding demographics, whether they had prior patellar dislocation and to complete the PROMs: the Banff Patella Instability Instrument (BPII), Kujala, Marx activity and EQ-5D-5L questionnaires.
