HealthEast Community Hip and Knee Replacement Registry

Description

HealthEast Care System began the first community-based joint replacement registry (HJRR) in the U.S. in 1991, and now has more than 30,000 total joints registered. The purpose of the HJRR is to maintain and improve the care of individuals undergoing joint replacement surgery by providing timely information to their surgeons and the broader orthopaedic community. As it moves into the third decade, the HJRR is proud of its role in the development of the national American Joint Replacement Registry (AJRR) and will remain an important contributor to the larger national effort in the advancement of orthopaedic science.
