Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Samir Mehta, MD, Chief of Orthopaedic Trauma & Fracture Service and Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania

Q: What else are you focused on and excited about looking into the future?

There are ongoing developments in biologics to enhance fracture healing, a continued emphasis on specialized orthopedic trauma expertise, and the use of advanced planning technologies like mixed reality to improve outcomes and efficiency.

Samir Mehta, MD, Chief of Orthopaedic Trauma & Fracture Service and Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania

Q: Can you tell us a little bit more about some of the trends you're watching currently?

The episode discusses moving select fracture and trauma care to ASC settings to decompress hospital trauma theaters, expanding geriatric fracture programs, and the importance of specialized trauma training to handle complex injuries more effectively.

Cory Calendine, MD, Orthopaedic Surgeon at the Bone and Joint Institute of Tennessee

Q: How should practices approach adopting robotic technologies given cost and capital considerations?

He emphasized performance-based financing models, leasing or rental options, and strategy like 'joint value' discounts to align costs with usage, plus the importance of selecting platforms that offer true clinical differentiation rather than mere commoditization, to achieve better outcomes at lower overall cost.

Cory Calendine, MD, Orthopaedic Surgeon at the Bone and Joint Institute of Tennessee

Q: What do you see as the biggest disruptors in orthopedics over the next five years?

The guest highlighted GLP-1 weight loss drugs delaying or enabling more patients to undergo surgery safely, the ongoing ASC disruption with new financing models and access, and the continued evolution of robotics and AI to improve efficiency, outcomes, and cost structure.

Cory Calendine, MD, Orthopaedic Surgeon at the Bone and Joint Institute of Tennessee

Q: Can you talk about any recent case examples where personalization, data analytics, or AI were particularly helpful?

The guest described using three-dimensional planning and preoperative CT scans to customize knee implants for individual anatomy, leading to better balance, fewer soft tissue releases, less pain, and faster recovery, with AI helping to translate the data into actionable intraoperative decisions.
