The American Joint Replacement Registry (AJRR) has released its 2016 Annual Report on hip and knee arthroplasty data. 

The organization notes that the number of procedures on which it has collected data has more than doubled since the 2015 report, with more than half a million procedures in the registry, and 427,181 procedures collected from 2012 to 2015. The new report includes data from 3,710 surgeons at 416 hospitals. In addition, the organization has released a separate California Joint Replacement Registry (CJRR) Annual Report. AJRR and CJRR merged in 2015, and the CJRR report features patient-reported outcome completion rates, length of stay, comorbidities and adverse events, and other patient factors influencing the results of hip and knee replacement surgeries in California.
