Assessing wire navigation performance in the operating room.
The researchers sought to develop meaningful, objective measures of wire navigation performance in the operating room. They concluded that several video-based metrics were consistent across the 4 video reviewers and are likely to be useful for performance assessment. The tip-apex distance (TAD) measurement was less reliable than previous reports have suggested, but remains a valuable metric of performance.

Evaluating patient safety indicators in orthopedic surgery between Italy and the USA.
The authors compared patient safety in major orthopedic procedures between an orthopedic hospital in Italy and 26 Florida hospitals of similar size. 大象视频Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) were used to identify inpatient adverse events (AEs). They found that US patients had lower adjusted odds of developing a PSI compared to Italy for pressure ulcers, hemorrhage or hematoma, and physiologic and metabolic derangement. while Italian patients had lower odds of pulmonary embolism/deep vein thrombosis compared to US patients.

Medicare's new bundled payment for joint replacement may penalize hospitals that treat medically complex patients.
Using Medicare claims for patients in Michigan who underwent lower extremity joint replacement in the period 2011-13, the researchers applied payment methods analogous to those CMS intends to use in determining annual bonuses or penalties (reconciliation payments) to hospitals. Their findings suggest that CMS should include risk adjustment in the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement program and in future bundled payment programs.
