Married patients experience better outcomes following total joint arthroplasty with increased psychosocial support

Posted on: 02-Nov-2021

The study, presented at the 2021 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), found that, overall, married patients or those with a live-in partner experienced shorter surgical times, shorter lengths of stay (LOS) in the hospital, fewer post-operative emergency department (ED) visits, lower readmission rates and, in some cases, better patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) than those who weren't married or lived alone.

Orchard Orthopedics
The difference is the experience: designed around you, start to finish.

Orchard Orthopedics was built on a simple idea: the way medicine treats injured, active people is broken — long waits, rushed visits, and decisions shaped by insurance instead of what’s right for you. We chose a different model — direct access, unhindered care, and complete honesty about what you need, and what you don’t.

If you're dealing with a shoulder or knee injury, I’d like to help you get back to the life you’ve built.
