Background: Frailty has been reported as a predictor of adverse outcomes after various surgical procedures. There are several models for defining frailty, including 5-factor modified frailty index, clinical frailty scale, and psoas muscle index. Low psoas muscle index has been associated with higher postoperative mortality and complications after various surgical procedures.

Periprosthetic joint infections (PJI), along with the extensive medical and surgical interventions required for treatment, impose a substantial psychological burden on patients. Given the need for patients to adapt to long-term physical limitations and ongoing medical challenges, this qualitative study aims to explore the nature of psychological coping amongst patients with chronic cases of PJI. A total of 18 patients (8 men and 10 women, aged 55 to 92) who underwent a total knee or hip arthroplasty revision due to chronic PJI were recruited at a single academic institution between August 2022 and July 2023.

Purpose: Determining the best suture for wound closure in high-tension areas by anatomical site and procedure type remains a challenge. This study assessed the cumulative incidence of clinical outcomes among patients undergoing procedures incorporating the STRATAFIX Symmetric PDS™ Plus Knotless Tissue Control Device (STRATAFIX Symmetric) for closure of high-tension areas, such as the abdominal fascia and hip and knee joint capsule, in the course of routine clinical practice.
Patients And Methods: Patients undergoing open abdominal or orthopedic surgery between October 1, 2016, and October 31, 2023, using size 0 or 1 STRATAFIX Symmetric were identified from the Premier Healthcare Database.
