Sometimes the hoofbeats are 🦓! This case report from @UofUOrtho describes an unusual PJI caused by bacillus Calmette-Guérin, used to treat bladder cancer 3y before TKA. @PeltMD @marcusmilderman @DrMattDeren @KMallettMD arthroplastytoday.org/article/S2352-…
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… Another study, another group showing ALVAL rates around 30% in failed #tkrs ALVAL is clearly a major contributor to unexplained pain. When is the orthopaedic community going to start discussing this properly? @EdinburghKnee @KneeUnit @PeltMD @DrLeeRubin
Check out this highlight of Orhun Muratoglu, PhD discussing the scratch resistance of Aurum® technology vs. CoCr. View the full discussion of him and Christopher Pelt, MD here: tjoinc.com/aurum-webinar
Always learning. In this case, I learned they treat bladder CA with BCG & it can lead to yet another source for PJI. Not considering this led to a delay in diagnosis. Have to consider dx to make it! And now you know! #orthowitter #TKA #PJI @ArthroToday tinyurl.com/y936xt7z
Tonight's the night! 7pm ET/5pm MT! Aurum® Durability & Reducing Cobalt Chrome webinar. Join Christopher E. Pelt, MD, and Orhun K. Muratoglu, PhD to learn about new data and the case for reducing CoCr in orthopedics! Follow the link in our bio to Register.
We presented today that the reimbursement for the treatment of PJI in TKA has continued to fall over the past 12 years. The decline needs to stop! @MayoAZOrtho @SayiBoddu @Jackhaglin @Ortho_ZKC @AAOS1 @AAHKS
The presence of microorganisms in the native knee has important implications for better understanding the native joint microbiome and the utilization of native genome sequencing in cases of suspected PJI. authors.elsevier.com/a/1iCjj38vD36G…
Physicians, who see Medicare patients, struggle to keep their doors open because of debilitating reimbursement cuts each year. Congress must step up and protect America’s doctors and patients. My bill, the Preserving Seniors’ Access to Physicians Act, will get the job done.

This study from @UofUOrtho discusses a radiographic marker (the "empty ischial fossa sign") that may be associated with inc risk of instability after THA. #orthotwitter @PeltMD @PennyKagina @Hip_Knee_MD @zahidsortho @kylelawrencemed arthroplastytoday.org/article/S2352-…
If you are using radiographs/fluoro to aid in cup positioning, this simple to identify sign may be a simple aid to help identify a flat cup position. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@GoldDeagle55 @DrJesseMorse Don’t do stem cells. Costs thousands and thousands of $ and there is no high quality evidence it works. See an orthopaedic surgeon.
Physician payments represent $5 of every $10,000 spent on healthcare. We are not the reason for the rise in health insurance premiums, greed is. @DrBruggeman explains it beautifully.
Take a minute and realize how absolutely laughable this statement (quoted below) that increased physician payments in NSA above an artificially low QPA will cause an increase in insurance premiums. FACTS: One half of one percent of all claims are NSA eligible per AHIP (.005).…

The "unexpected" positive culture in PPFs is relatively high (6.8%) with an infection rate of 3.1%. In the presence of preop CRP elevation, when associated with loosening of the implant, consider an increased risk of infection. authors.elsevier.com/a/1ibpm38vD3A2…

@bemooremd We have to be able to make the hard decision to leave the system. I wish there was another way but I don’t see it.
@DHidlayVIR @olsonplanner Too many patients. Too much debt. Too much work. Systems that can’t support the work that needs to be done. Reimbursement falling. Hospital reimbursements going up. Never ending expectations of access. Mismatch of expectations. Too many boxes to check. Not enough hours in the day
@DHidlayVIR @olsonplanner Taking care of sick people as a pro is really difficult. If you “clock out” you “don’t care” and patients can suffer. If you’re “all in” you’ll get ground into a pulp. No amount of wellness days matter. The job changes you and those who say that is doesn’t are sociopaths or liars
