Summary

Aim 1. Establish a national registry of diverse patients of orthopedic surgeons representing all regions of the country and varied hospital and surgeon practice settings (e.g., urban/rural, low and high volume) to ensure that registry analyses and research reflect typical clinical practice thereby providing optimal guidance for patients, clinicians, and national healthcare policymakers. Collect pre-operative and post-operative patient reported outcomes (PROs) for pain and function.

Aim 2: Develop new and transformative comparative effectiveness tools useful to both clinical practice and healthcare policy.

Aim 3. Broadly disseminate surveillance reports for adverse events, such as implant revision, hip dislocation, knee manipulation, and identify important variation to inform quality improvement priorities.
