Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Jason Shaw discusses a study conducted by his team at Emory University on the projections and epidemiology of total ankle and revision ankle arthroplasty up to 2030. The study aimed to analyze the long-term trends and predictions using the National Inpatient Sample Database. The results showed a significant increase in primary total ankle arthroplasty cases from 2005 to 2017, with a 564% increase. There was also an increase in aseptic and septic revision ankle arthroplasty. The study highlights the importance of refining surgical indications, developing revision protocols, and scrutinizing implant failure rates. The findings suggest a significant increase in the utilization of total ankle arthroplasty and a need for further research in this area.
