Leaders of Cleveland Clinic’s Adult Reconstruction Research Program share what they’ve learned over the past 16 years and offer insights for orthopaedic surgeons building their own clinical research programs.
Getting it Right — Connecting Patients to the Right Appointment
Leveraging discrete data elements helped standardize the triage, imaging and scheduling process for orthopaedic consults.
Bilateral Hip Dysplasia: When to Preserve, and When to Replace?
A patient presents with bilateral hip pain following an injury that occurred six months prior. Atul Kamath, MD, Director of the Center for Hip Preservation at Cleveland Clinic, discusses the case.
How Musculoskeletal Virtual Care Is Driving The Digital Transformation of Orthopaedics
A recently published framework illustrates Cleveland Clinic’s strategy for integrating virtual care with orthopaedics.

Identifying the Patient, Disease, Surgical and Implant Positional Factors that Predict Outcomes Following Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
The ability to reliably and accurately measure subtle radiographic factors longitudinally following anatomic TSA may allow for a deeper understanding of the relationship between short- and longer-term clinical outcomes.
Challenges and Opportunities Within Evidence-Based Surgery: An Orthopaedic Perspective
Nicolas Piuzzi, MD, Adult Joint Reconstruction Research Director and Staff at Cleveland Clinic, recently authored an article published in JAMA Surgery that outlines challenges and opportunities for evidenced-based surgery within orthopaedics. He shares his insights and offers solutions to effectively collect and leverage data into clinical practice.
Reconstructing Nonunions of the Distal Tibia
Two orthopaedic surgeons describe their approach for addressing distal tibial nonunions, both when the ankle joint is spared as well as when the ankle cannot be salvaged and concomitant fusion is required.
Why Do Bunion Surgeries Fail?
Hallux valgus surgery can fail in a number of ways, often leaving the patient with more pain, persistent deformity and significant dissatisfaction and dysfunction. How can surgeons improve outcomes?
Orthopaedic Surgery and Evidence-based Patient Care: What’s the Value?
Database system provides wealth of information expected to have tremendous impact on advancing medical care. And doctors use it.
How Can We Reduce Opioid Use Pre- and Postsurgery in Orthopaedics?
A multipronged approach is needed, and new research shows that liposomal bupivacaine can help.
