RECRUITING

General vs Spinal in Total Joint Arthroplasty (TJA)

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this research is to compare post-operative outcomes from patients undergoing TJA. The study team wants to learn about outcomes like length of hospital stay, post-operative pain scores, post-operative nausea, deep and superficial surgical site infection, periprosthetic fracture (a broken bone that occurs around an orthopaedic implant), implant dislocation, readmission rates, and revision rates.
