Age-related differences in the use of total shoulder arthroplasty over time: use and outcomes.
The authors assessed the age-related differences in the use of total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and outcomes, and associated time-trends using the United States Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) between 1998 and 2010. They noted a time-related increase in the use of TSA and increasing age-related differences in outcomes indicating a changing epidemiology of the use of TSA and concluded that age-related differences in outcomes suggest that attention should focus on groups with the worst outcomes.
