Abstract

The effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic are pervasive and have decreased the volume of hip and knee arthroplasty procedures since the mandated cessation of elective surgical procedures at the height of the pandemic in early 2020. Therefore, a backlog of patients in need of these elective procedures is a probable consequence and increased productivity and efficiency in patient care delivery is essential now and into the future. This article outlines multiple strategies and techniques to develop and optimize efficiency in the hip and knee arthroplasty practice. Techniques for increasing surgical efficiency are detailed, along with perioperative strategies in the hospital, ambulatory surgery center, and office settings are outlined and discussed.
