Good to see work from the UK SAFE project - What does analysis of linked, routinely collected national datasets tell us about mid–late term revision risk after knee replacement? @BMJ_Open https://t.co/iStJfiKgeO

[Mike Reed @mikereednhs]

Great progress from the Bone and Joint Infection Registry! Hopefully we can get all UK hospitals reporting data so we can learn the best treatments. @UK_PJI

[ACPA UK @AcpaUk]
