AI Article Synopsis
- The hip election radiographic plane (HERP) is crucial for planning total hip prosthesis surgery, helping ensure the correct positioning of the implant.
- It is especially important for femoral component planning and is needed for certain prosthetic types, like Biodynamic or CFP.
- Using HERP allows surgeons to preserve the femoral neck during the implantation process.
Article Abstract
In the preoperative radiographic planning of total hip prosthesis implantation, the hip election radiographic plane (HERP) is an essential, "dedicated" tool, i.e. it is indispensable for correct implant planning, especially as regards the femoral component and specifically some types of devices which, like the Biodynamic or CFP prostheses, allow preservation of the femoral neck.

Connecticut Orthopaedic Institute, St. Vincent's Medical Center, Hartford Healthcare, Bridgeport, CT, USA.
Background: Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) represents the single largest procedural cost for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Discharge to a skilled nursing facility (SNF) remains a primary driver of post-acute care costs. The COVID-19 pandemic led to a decrease in number of discharges to SNFs.

Southwest of London Orthopaedic Elective Centre, Epsom, UK.
Background: The aim was to assess whether the postoperative Oxford Hip Score (OHS) demonstrated a ceiling effect at 1 or 2 years after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to identify which patients are more likely to achieve a ceiling score and whether this limits assessment of their outcome.
Methods: A retrospective cohort of 7871 patients undergoing primary THA was identified from an established arthroplasty database. Patient demographics, ASA grade, socioeconomic status, OHS and EuroQol questionnaire were collected preoperatively and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively.

Purpose: The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic delayed elective procedures such as total joint arthroplasty. As surgical volumes return to prepandemic levels, understanding the implications of COVID-19 becomes imperative. This study explored the effects of COVID-19 on the short-term outcomes of hip arthroplasty.
