Ep 32: Professor Justin Cobb: Outcome of Arthroplasty - a podcast by RSM Ortho

Professor Justin Cobb (Imperial College London) speaks with us about approaches to the hip joint, patient reported outcome measures and the outcome of arthroplasty surgery. Specific points we cover are:

- When trying to determine the outcome is between different hip approaches, can we rely on patient reported outcome measures? 

- What is the ceiling affect of patient reported outcome measures?

- Are walking speed and gate potentially outcome measures?

- Does the approach to the hip matter? 

- Does implant choice matter and why?

- Who stands to potentially benefit the most from the direct anterior approach?
