Identifying Patients at Risk for a Facility Discharge Following Elective Total Joint Arthroplasty Using Preoperative Clinical Findings and Patient-Reported Outcome Scores.
J Arthroplasty

Hartford Healthcare Bone and Joint Institute, 32 Seymour Street, Hartford, CT 06106; Orthopaedic Associates of Hartford, 31 Seymour Street, Hartford, CT 06106.
Introduction: Facility discharges following an elective, primary, total joint arthroplasty are infrequent, but are associated with poor outcomes and significant cost. Therefore, investigating ways to identify patients most likely to be discharged to a facility could improve patient care, reduce costs, and potentially lead to strategies to mitigate these risks.
Methods: A total of 3,198 patients who underwent a total hip or knee arthroplasty between June 2021 and June 2023 were included in this study.

Safety planning is an approach that provides those experiencing IPV with concrete actions to increase their safety and referrals to formal services. While safety planning is shown to reduce future incidences of violence, little is known about the safety planning priorities of Latinas.
