“…Although the local population is less ethnically diverse than the entire U.S. population, mortality rates are similar 25,26 . Similarly, the contralateral procedure estimates are consistent with those in the published literature 27 . Finally, state-specific prevalence estimates may not be accurate in certain states with relatively high rates of migration into and out of the state.…”

“…These individuals not only have specialized needs, but in some cases, will outlive their implants and require expensive revision surgeries with substantial implications related to cost and resource use. Therefore, estimates of prevalence are 27 . THR = total hip replacement, and TKR = total knee replacement.…”

“…It is common for patients to have several prosthetic joints, ranging in some studies from approximately 30% to approximately 45% for TKAs [8]. In the setting of multiple joint arthroplasties, the problem of infection may be further magnified, because the morbidity of multiple infected joint replacements can be devastating [1-3, 9, 11].…”

“…Although this study's sampling strategy excluded individuals who had undergone a prior joint replacement surgery in order to achieve a more homogenous sample, future studies of functional outcomes of TKR should consider the implications of such exclusions because surgery on the contralateral knee is common and may confound results of studies examining outcomes. 100 Blinding breaks occurred at the highest rate, even though patients were instructed not to reveal their treatment assignment during interactions with study staff. The unblinded staff member was prevented from further interactions with participants to minimize influence of this occurrence.…”
