Summary

Primary total knee or total hip replacement surgeries are costly high volume procedures \& outcomes may be affected by surgical \& care processes \& individual patient characteristics. The primary hypotheses is that non compliance with recommended practice impacts patient outcomes (e.g. the likelihood of complications following surgery). The primary aims of the study are to evaluate the links between processes \& outcomes \& if possible develop a model that will improve patient outcomes \& reduce unnecessary practice variation whilst considering costs.
