Episode 268: 268. New Guidelines For Total Hip and Knee Joint Replacement

  • TJA should not be delayed for trials of physical therapy, anti-inflammatory drug use, bracing, intra-articular steroid injections, or hyaluronic acid injections.

  • For patients with obesity, proceed to TJA without delay, regardless of BMI.

  • For patients with poorly controlled diabetes, recommend delaying TJA to improve glycemic control, but don't define poor control or specific HbA1c requirements.

  • For smokers, recommend delaying TJA for a trial of smoking reduction or cessation.
