The introduction of bundled payment reimbursement focuses on rewarding efficient and high-quality care. In order for bundled payment programs to be successful, collaboration across care settings is essential. Consequently, the introduction of this reimbursement program is expected to be associated with an increase of Health Information Exchange (HIE) among health providers. This paper aims at understanding how the use of HIE can be shaped by organization-specific factors such as trust, power, organizational culture, and leadership, especially when participating in bundled payment initiatives. The study was based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with hospital administrators. Very diverse opinions arose from the interviewees, which leads to the main conclusion that policymakers should take into account differences between diverse hospital settings when adopting policies regarding technological innovations.

Partial Avulsion Patterns in the Pediatric Humeral Medial Epicondyle.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Division of Orthopaedics, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Background: The anterior oblique bundle of the medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) inserts on the anteroinferior aspect of the humeral medial epicondyle, while the flexor pronator mass (FPM) originates superficial and proximal to the UCL. With valgus stress, these distinct footprints may produce injury patterns that affect only focal areas of the medial epicondyle.
Hypothesis: The proximal UCL can act on the medial epicondyle either in isolation or in conjunction with the FPM to form partial avulsion fracture patterns within the pediatric medial epicondyle, and the predominant pattern involves only the proximal UCL footprint.
Return to Sport and Graft Failure Rates After Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With a Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Versus Hamstring Tendon Autograft: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Boston Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are frequent injuries in athletes that often require surgical reconstruction so that patients may return to their previous levels of performance. While existing data on patient-reported outcomes are similar between bone-patellar tendon-bone (BTB) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts, the literature regarding return to sport (RTS), return to previous levels of sport activity, and graft failure rate remains limited.
Purpose: To compare rates of RTS, return to previous activity levels, and graft retears among athletes undergoing primary ACL reconstruction using a BTB versus HT autograft.
Emergency Department Visits After Total Joint Arthroplasty in a Closed Urban Setting: A Report of 1,000 Consecutive Cases.
J Am Acad Orthop Surg Glob Res Rev
January 2025
From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, BronxCare Health System, Bronx, NY.
Background: Rates of emergency department (ED) visits and readmissions after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) have been cited as indicators of TJA quality. Understanding the incidence and nature of these events is critical for prevention. The purpose of this study was to analyze readmission rates 30 and 90 days after TJA at a safety-net hospital in an urban setting and to compare this readmission rate with that for non-safety-net hospitals found in the current literature.

Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) can effectively enhance cardiac contraction by engaging the conduction system. LBBAP, compared with right ventricular apex pacing, can reduce QRS duration and enhance left ventricular function. Consequently, LBBAP has been proposed as a viable alternative to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) practices are evolving under the influence of the current value-based healthcare system and bundled payment models. This study aimed to (1) evaluate national trends in discharge disposition and postoperative outcomes after THA, (2) compare discharge cohorts on episode-of-care parameters, and (3) determine predictors of nonhome discharge from 2011 to 2021.
Methods: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for THA data from 2011 to 2021.
