@blibros@drchrisahmad Our OJSM risk factor study looks at a control group + found that generally pitchers with greater ability were more at risk of injury, so perhaps these guys are more susceptible to performance decline after surgery as well? Interesting to think about

To do this, we looked at 129 MLB pitchers who underwent TJS from 2017-2023.
Modern advanced analytics allows MLB to track performance better than ever. While pitchers returned to play at a high rate, our study also analyzed new metrics such as Stuff+, Location+, Pitching+, and
Using modern pitch-tracking metrics, this study found that the majority of Major League Baseball pitchers did not return to full form following #UCL surgery.

Check out our publication in AJSM on returning to performance following Tommy John surgery (TJS) in MLB pitchers!
In order to push player health forward, our goal was to define what recovery means in terms players and teams (and fans!) use to evaluate performance

@olsonplanner Who would you recommend for disability insurance for a resident orthopedic surgeon? What would you look for and what questions would you want answered? Thanks
@ThePOTSPostman I sent a letter to post office for the carrier to deliver to the door versus the street mailbox because of disabilities. I then put up a mailbox at the door and the carrier delivered mail so did not have to walk to street. Yay post office for recognizing disabilities!

@kim_amerie So sorry for your loss. No parent should ever have to lose a child. While I didn’t lose a child, I lost my only brother. I live thru the heinous crime and what it did to my parents. You have to take it one day at a time. Talking about your child will keep them close.
@MollyRobison You will not regret being with your dad. I am sure the two of you share a special bond. Not many today will do this. I am in the same boat.
Our President of Honduran Operations, Jorge, was involved in a very serious car accident last week that now requires life-altering spine surgery. We are trying to raise all of the funds required to cover his hospital stay and surgery if you are able 🙏🏼🙏🏼 https://t.co/8OisBukKkh
We were devastated to hear this. Our dear friend Jorge has multiple fractures of his L1-L5 lumbar spine, L3-L5 spondylolistheses, a sacral wing fracture, herniated disks, and multiple rib fractures. Please consider supporting if you can 🙏🏼 https://t.co/OPBEqBHuql
