1.	Pain (Aches) 09/01/1979 - "Total hip arthroplasty, one of the most successful orthopedic procedures of this century, can provide relief of pain and improved function in a wide variety of hip conditions. " 10/01/1998 - "CONCLUSIONS: During emergency pediatric orthopedic procedures, K/M is more effective than F/M for pain and anxiety relief. " 08/01/2008 - "CONCLUSIONS: Almost one-fourth of the patients undergoing general surgery and orthopedic procedures under general anesthesia suffered from postoperative discomfort other than pain. " 07/01/2008 - "CONCLUSION: As mandated by the Joint Commission and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, safety technologies and the use of pain scales can be successfully integrated into rheumatologic and orthopedic procedures.

2.	Infection 04/01/1996 - "To establish the context for this study, we first present a Guidance Section, "Do You Need Surgical Helmet Systems for Orthopedic Procedures?" In this section, we discuss the infection risks present during orthopedic procedures. " 07/01/2008 - "To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case in the literature to show a delayed type of postoperative infection as a complication of non-instrumented orthopedic surgical procedures. " 05/01/2007 - "METHODS: In 8 hospitals conducting surgical site infection (SSI) surveillance for orthopedic procedures, a validation team performed a blinded retrospective chart review (10 operations with reported infections, 40 without) and interviewed infection control nurses. " 05/01/2007 - "Validation of surgical site infection surveillance in orthopedic procedures." 04/01/2007 - "Further analysis revealed a high prevalence of surgical site infection among patients who had an orthopedic procedure performed.

3.	Venous Thromboembolism 07/01/1995 - "Low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) have been shown to be effective and safe in the prevention of venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing major orthopedic procedures. " 05/01/2008 - "Venous thromboembolism following major orthopedic procedures of the hip and knee is well documented and patients are therefore routinely prophylaxed following these proximal lower extremity procedures. " 04/01/2008 - "Patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery--hip or knee arthroplasty, or hip fracture repair--are in the highest risk category for venous thromboembolism (VTE) solely on the basis of the orthopedic procedure itself. " 12/14/2004 - "Systematic cost-effectiveness analyses of regimens used for preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) are becoming increasingly important for several reasons: the aging of the population, with an accompanying increase in admissions for orthopedic procedures or other surgery; expanded indications for thromboprophylaxis in nonsurgical patients; and the introduction of more expensive new agents that may increase safety and efficacy. " 09/01/2007 - "BACKGROUND: Venous thromboembolism is a relevant social and health care problem because of its high incidence among patients who undergo surgery (20-30% after general surgical operations and 50-75% after orthopedic procedures), its pulmonary embolism-related mortality rate, and its long-term sequelae (postthrombotic syndrome and ulceration), which may be disabling.

4.	Postoperative Pain 07/01/2008 - "Patient-controlled analgesia is an effective form of postoperative pain management for select lower extremity orthopedic procedures in the in-patient setting. " 05/01/2004 - "The indications to place a catheter for a continouos peripheral nerve blocks are the followings: major orthopedic procedures; the procedure is scheduled to last more than two hours; congenital malformation of foot or hand; fracture reduction; traction of femur fracture; when postoperative pain therapy is necessary for several days; painful physical therapy. " 04/01/2004 - "In view of the overall experience regarding regional anesthetic techniques to control postoperative pain in infants and children, it is feasible that a similar efficacy and safety profile can be obtained when using such techniques after major orthopedic procedures such as anterior or posterior spinal fusion. " 09/01/2001 - "The constant search for increased efficiency and reduction of hospital length of stay has led to an increase number of major orthopedic procedures performed as outpatients and the increase in the associated intensity and duration of acute postoperative pain. " 07/01/1983 - "Epidural opiates have been used successfully for the control of postoperative pain after obstetrical, abdominal, and orthopedic procedures.
