More Older Adults With Joint Replacements Recover At Home, Not Rehab

Hip Resurfacing and Total Hip Replacement at Hips for You Posted on March 29, 2019 by pwalterMarch 29, 2019

By Judith Graham  https://khn.org/news/more-older-adults-with-joint-replacements-recover-at-home-not-rehab/

Older adults and their families often wonder: Where’s the best place to recover after a hip or knee replacement — at home or in a rehabilitation facility?

Increasingly, the answer appears to be home if the procedure is elective, friends and family are available to help and someone doesn’t have serious conditions that could lead to complications.

7-year evaluation of a new formulation of vitamin E-diffused highly crosslinked polyethylene

March 14, 2019 LAS VEGAS — At the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting, Charles R. Bragdon, PhD, associate director of clinical studies and director of Partners’ Orthopedic Registries at Harris Orthopaedic Laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital, spoke about results of a 7-year evaluation of a new formulation of vitamin E-diffused highly crosslinked polyethylene.

He said that results of the prospective, blinded, randomized controlled trial of 67 patients indicate that in contrast to conventional polyethylene, which is minimally crosslinked and wears at 0.1 mm per year, this formulation of polyethylene and others before it essentially have undetectable wear over time.
