That accounts for 0.3% of total publications (21/6098) and 8% of the business publications (21/261) in these journals over this 5 year span. Shoulder and elbow business publications accounted for a wide range of editorial space, ranging from 0% of CORR business publications to 11% of BJ&J publications.\u0000Across the five shoulder and elbow surgery journals of interest, there were 57 business related articles published for the 5-year duration. The Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery accounted for 77% of these publications (44/57). Business articles represented 0.8% of articles in the fine shoulder and elbow publications (57/7155) over the study time period.\u0000Conclusions:  This analysis demonstrates the tendency of shoulder and elbow oriented orthopaedic journals to publish a higher percentage of business articles related to shoulder and elbow surgery compared to general orthopaedics journal.

Standard usage statistics were obtained from the google play and apple app stores including active users, time in app, user download geographic region. Download ratios were calculated from investigator logs of approaches and success.\u0000 \u0000Results: In the 39 months between January 2017 to April 2020, there were 144 downloads by patients at the original center. In the three other centers added in October 2018, there were 404, 109, and 34 downloads over an 18-month period until April 2020. The mean number of downloads per center was 173±161. Quotes from unstructured narrative interviews by investigators described promotional materials as “effective” and the app as “easy to use” with “relevant content.” Additionally, all investigators reported that patients were able to find the app easily and that a majority of patients had devices capable of using the app. Four investigators report that they believe intentional provider interaction with the patient and app increased the download ratio, which ranged from 0.7% to 9.8% of all trauma admissions at each center. Active champions were referenced by all investigators as leading to increased downloads regardless of provider level of the champion. All centers struggled to influence providers beyond the study investigators to adopt the app. All investigators reported poor cell reception and problems with internet connection in hospitals as barriers to facilitating patient downloads.\u0000 \u0000Conclusion: This study documents the successes and challenges of implementing patient education app for orthopaedic trauma patients presenting to four Level 1 trauma centers in the US and UK. At our institutions, downloads were driven by organizational champions at each center who actively promoted the app to patients using standard promotional materials. However, organizational challenges and unreceptive healthcare workers remain a challenge and adoption was not widespread among non-participant providers at each institution. Ultimately, our experience identified iteratively improving implementation strategies and empowering an organizational champion who can lead iterations of implementation, improve relevant technology, and prepare the organization for app adoption as strategies critical to our success.\u0000 \u0000Level of Evidence: IV\u0000Keywords: Patient education, technology, mo","PeriodicalId":152360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedic Business","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117304391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monthly frequency of admissions was 0.75 in 2017, 1.33 in 2018, and 7.1 in 2019 (p<0.001). Median length of stay was 4 days (interquartile range 2-8). There was a total of 178 orthopaedic injuries (24 upper extremity, 123 lower extremity, 10 acetabular and pelvic ring, 21 spine). Pilon fractures were the most common injury pattern noted (N=33, 19%). Injuries resulted in 146 operative events, 231 procedures, 344 hours of operative room time, and 711 hospital days. 98 patients (88%) received definitive fixation, 13 (12%) had further surgery recommended without ability to follow-up. 92% of patients had no outpatient follow up. Total estimated cost of trauma utilization, diagnostic imaging, operating room utilization, implant costs, inpatient services, and Department of Homeland Security agent supervision was nearly $13.5M over the three-year study period.

A quiz consisting of 23 questions to assess billing and coding knowledge.\u0000Main outcome measurement: Survey results and quiz scores.\u0000Results and conclusions: We had 68 responses comprised of 23 residents and 45 staff orthopaedic surgeons.

The current evidence suggests that most patients should be surgically managed 24-48 hours from injury in accordance with patient preferences and medical risk stratification. Doing so is likely to improve postoperative outcomes and save both patients and hospital systems financial resources.

There are numerous cardiovascular, cognitive, and endocrinologic comorbidities that may delay or impact surgical treatment of hip fracture patients.

Modern-day sutures can be divided into three main categories: natural vs synthetic, monofilament vs multifilament, and non-absorbable vs absorbable. A newer monofilament barbed suture has been given increasing attention, as it reduces procedural times and ultimately operative costs.\u0000Level of Evidence: IV, Review\u0000Keywords: suture, barbed, cost, orthopaedic surgery, orthopedic surgery, cost analysis\u0000(J Ortho Business 2022; Volume 2, Issue 2:pages 13-18)","PeriodicalId":152360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedic Business","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114278700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
