Preoperative Resilience as a Predictor of Postoperative Regret and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Total Knee Arthroplasty.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

January 2025

From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kaiser Permanente San Diego Medical Center, San Diego, CA (Horan), the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Summit Orthopedics, Eagan, MN (Baer), Shiley Center for Orthopaedic Research and Education (SCORE) at Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, CA (Shah), Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington, DC (Shah), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, CA (Wilde, Copp, and Bugbee).

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a well-established treatment option for advanced knee osteoarthritis, yet some patients remain unsatisfied after surgery. Evaluation of various psychosocial parameters may improve patient optimization and outcomes. The primary aim was to assess whether preoperative resilience remained stable and influenced decision regret postoperatively while the secondary aim was to evaluate its correlation with joint-specific and global health patient-reported outcome measures.

Objectives: This study aims to review the societal, economic, and racial factors that impact the usage of spinal cord stimulation for chronic pain. Our working hypothesis is that patients of ethnic minority groups or of lower socioeconomic status (SES) status may have lower implantation rates and usage of spinal cord stimulation (SCS).

Materials And Methods: Our study sourced publications from PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library on December 21st, 2023 for SCS for the purposes of pain management.

Objectives: This study aimed to identify outcome clusters among individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI), 6 months to 10 years post-injury, in an Australian rehabilitation sample, and determine whether scores on 12 dimensions, combined with demographic and injury severity variables, could predict outcome cluster membership 1 to 3 years post-injury.

Setting: Rehabilitation hospital.

Participants: A total of 467 individuals with TBI, aged 17 to 87 (M = 44.
