OrthoACCESS 2.0: Redesigning a National Orthopaedic Surgery Curriculum for Medical Students using a Flipped-Classroom Blended Learning Model.

Objective: Due to limited musculoskeletal education, students pursuing orthopaedic surgery often feel unprepared for residency. Clinical rotations provide some education; however, prior to the development of the Ortho Acting-Intern Coordinated Clinical Education and Surgical Skills (OrthoACCESS) curriculum in 2019, no standardized didactic curriculum existed. Over time, students desired interactive, case-based learning opportunities.

Diabetic Kidney Disease Is Associated With Increased Complications Following Operative Management of Ankle Fractures.

Background: Diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy are established risk factors for complications in operatively treated ankle fractures. Generally, the presence of peripheral neuropathy and diabetic nephropathy have been used as independent variables in studies of diabetic ankle fracture cohorts but are typically treated as binary risk factors. Our purpose was to quantify the effects of risk factors on complication rate specific to diabetic patients undergoing ankle fracture fixation.

The Association of Opioid Utilization and Patient Satisfaction Following Outpatient Orthopaedic Surgery: More May Not Be Better.

Postoperative analgesia remains an important area of research in orthopaedics. There remains a lack of information on the complex interplay between opioid utilization postoperatively, pain and patient satisfaction. This study aims to describe the relationship between opioid utilization, postoperative pain, and patient satisfaction following outpatient orthopaedic surgery in a multispecialty orthopaedic practice.
