Patient referrals, transfers and consults are critically important, and we want to make it easy for referring providers and their staff. To refer your patient for a clinic appointment, call our Clinic Concierge at 855.312.4190.

Warner L. ThomasPresident &

Chief Executive Officer Ochsner Health System

Ochsner’s longstanding tradition of bringing physicians together to improve health outcomes continues today. Our goals are to work together with our referring providers to serve the needs of patients and to provide coordinated treatment through partnerships that put patients first. We have automated physician-to-physician patient care summaries for hospital encounters and enhanced the patient experience by giving patients the ability to schedule appointments online.

Close coordination and collaboration begin with transparency and access to the data you need to make informed decisions when advising your patients about care options. OchsnerOutcomes, a compilation of clinical data, represents only part of our efforts to better define the quality of Ochsner’s care and to share that information with you.

Trusted, independent organizations give the highest marks to Ochsner’s quality. Ochsner Medical Center was the only healthcare institution in Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas to receive national rankings in four adult specialties from U.S. News & World Report for 2017–2018. Ochsner Hospital for Children has been ranked among the top 50 children’s hospitals in the country for Cardiology and Heart Surgery in the 2017–2018 U.S. News & World Report Best Children’s Hospitals rankings, making it the only nationally ranked children’s hospital in Louisiana.

Additionally, CareChex® named Ochsner Medical Center, Ochsner Baptist and Ochsner Medical Center – West Bank Campus among the top 10% in the nation in Medical Excellence for 16 different specialties. Ochsner was also named #1 in the nation in Medical Excellence for Organ Transplants and, for the fifth year in a row, #1 in the nation in Medical Excellence and Patient Safety for Liver Transplant.

Ochsner is expanding its already robust research program with two new partnerships. The first, with TGen, brings early-phase cancer clinical trials to the region. The second, with TriNetX, an international data research network, will allow Ochsner clinicians to have the opportunity to provide new therapies to their patients sooner, as well as provide our researchers access to new tools with which to analyze data on our own patients and refine treatments.

Ochsner Multi-Organ Transplant Institute is one of 19 transplant hospitals in the United States to participate in the initial pilot phase of the Collaborative Innovation and Improvement Network (COIIN) project, a three-year study by the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) intended to increase transplantation, with a particular focus on utilization of deceased donor kidneys.

Ochsner consistently earns the respect of independent evaluators. We do not rest on these achievements, but use them as a benchmark to continuously improve. We will continue to share the data you need to care for your patients, provide services you may not have in your community and develop the collaborative relationships essential to ensuring the best outcomes for every patient, every time.

George F. Chimento, MD, FACS Chairman, Department of Orthopedic Surgery

Ochsner OrthopedicsThe Ochsner Department of Orthopedics cares for patients of all ages, employing the latest techniques and technology available to treat a wide spectrum of orthopedic problems.

The department’s more than 15 fellowship-trained, board-certified and board-eligible physicians have subspecialty expertise in joint replacement, sports medicine, orthopedic oncology, pediatrics, spine, trauma, foot and ankle, hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder treatments. A talented and experienced team of physician assistants and nurse practitioners work with the physicians to provide patients with the best possible outcomes.

The department enjoys an excellent reputation and is pleased to have been awarded the Blue Cross Blue Shield Destination Center designation and to be a Blue Distinction Center for spine surgery and for knee and hip replacement. From a dedicated Back and Spine Center to a Hand Center, Ochsner Orthopedics has the specialty focus that patients need to enjoy peace of mind in a specialized atmosphere.

Ochsner is the premier referral center for joint replacement in the Gulf South and beyond. Ochsner surgeons have been performing

total hip and knee replacements for more than 30 years and continue to build upon and refine our techniques. We perform more than 600 joint replacements a year. A comprehensive program of medical management and rehabilitation has created the Ochsner Joint Replacement team, whose efforts have made the recovery from joint replacement surgery faster and more complete. Our multidisciplinary team coordinates the physicians (surgeon, internist and anesthesiologist), physical therapists, nurses and social services for each patient for the best possible diagnosis, treatment and recovery.

In 2016, Ochsner transitioned from ICD 9 to 10 (International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems). The 10th edition allows for greater accuracy with the addition of more than 14,000 new diagnostic codes and sub-classifications. While this tool permits greater specificity, the additional classifications have resulted in outcomes metrics that may appear inconsistent from 2015 to 2016.

Joint ReplacementOchsner Medical Center has special operating rooms, medications, surgical staffing, anesthesia techniques and equipment dedicated to joint replacement surgery. The total joint surgeons use special blood preservation techniques and have a very low transfusion rate following surgery. Ochsner is experienced in all the major techniques for joint replacement, including minimally invasive robotically assisted MAKO techniques.

In 2016, Ochsner’s highly specialized team took care of more hip replacement revision patients than the national average and performed as many knee replacement revisions as the national average.

MAKOplasty®: Robotically Assisted Surgery

Ochsner’s Total Joint Team was an early adopter of robotically assisted surgery and was the first in the area to use the RIO® robotic arm. MAKOplasty® Partial Knee Resurfacing is an advanced treatment option. It is powered by the RIO® Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System, which allows the surgeon to perform surgery accurately through a smaller incision relative to manual procedures. By selectively targeting the part of the knee damaged by osteoarthritis (OA), surgeons can resurface the knee while sparing the healthy bone and ligaments surrounding the damage. This technique permits optimal prosthesis positioning, less pain, a more natural feeling knee following surgery, a more rapid recovery and a shorter hospital stay compared to traditional total knee resurfacing surgery. Ochsner’s Total Joint Team is excited to announce that we will begin to perform MAKO total knee replacement surgery in 2017. We will be the first hospital in the area to offer this innovative procedure.

Total hip surgery is also improved by using the robotic arm, permitting more accurate placement of the hip prosthesis, which can reduce the likelihood of hip dislocation and provide more consistency in leg length, potentially decreasing the need for a shoe lift and the risk of impingement and dislocation.

Anterior hip replacement is a total hip replacement performed through the anterior approach. This approach has many advantages. One of the most beneficial advantages is that patients have far fewer restrictions after surgery.

In addition, use of the robotic arm may improve the life expectancy of the hip replacement. The Ochsner Orthopedic Total Joint Team has performed more than 383 robotically assisted joint surgeries since 2014.

A New Treatment Model for Joint Replacement Surgery

In 2016, Ochsner’s Orthopedics and Anesthesiology Departments worked together to improve patient outcomes and reduce length of stay by implementing a new care model for hip replacement patients.

The Ochsner Joint Replacement Program manages the most complex surgical cases because of our outstanding outcomes. People who have had hip and knee replacement surgery elsewhere and are in need of revision surgery are often referred to an Ochsner specialist. While performing significantly more hip and knee revision surgeries than the national average, our overall outcomes are better than the national average.

The Ochsner Perioperative Surgical HomeApproximately 1 million patients each year undergo knee or hip replacement surgery in the United States. In many cases, the care provided is costly, results in extended hospitalization and unnecessarily delays the patients’ return to normal activity. Outside the operating room, the nation has embraced the concept of multidisciplinary coordination of care for a group of patients through the increasingly prevalent “Medical Home.” Patients are selected to the perioperative home program based on their comorbidities, health status and history. This is a collaboration among primary care physicians, health coaches, data specialists, nutritionists and midlevel providers, focused on helping a well-defined group of patients – referred to as a “panel” – control their chronic diseases (e.g., diabetes, heart disease, kidney failure). Before now, nothing like this existed for patients requiring surgery. A handful of innovative groups have established “Perioperative Surgical Homes” to better help these patients navigate the previously lengthy pathway from the decision to have surgery to complete recovery.

These are collaborations of surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, physical therapists, case managers, administrators and nutritionists focused on groups of patients having particular kinds of procedures, such as total joint replacement, prostatectomy and others. These physician-led, tightly coordinated care collaborations have been highly successful, achieving the Triple Aim of Healthcare Reform – better healthcare, better health and lower cost.

At the forefront, Ochsner Medical Center has been caring for patients using this new Perioperative Surgical Home model for three years. Led by the chairs of orthopedic surgery and anesthesiology, the Ochsner Surgical Home has already been recognized for providing care that is better than the national benchmarks for hip and knee replacement patients. Patients in the program have excellent mobility and pain relief following replacement of their hip and knee joints, as measured by specific patient- and surgeon-reported outcome scores.

Patients achieved these results through better preparation and conditioning leading up to surgery and by spending far less time in the hospital. This shortened hospitalization results in a much lower risk for deconditioning, sleep deprivation and what has been referred to as “post-hospital syndrome.” Instead, most of our patients undergoing joint replacement surgery at Ochsner go directly home.

Total cost of hospitalization has been reduced substantially, but patients are also spending less on postacute care. This model of care has recently been recognized by the American Society of Anesthesiologists National Surgical Home Collaborative in Chicago and at the plenary session of Annual Practice Management Conference in Atlanta.

Hip Fracture TreatmentAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are at least 258,000 hospital admissions for hip fractures among people aged 65 and older annually and, by 2030, the number of hip fractures is projected to reach 289,000, an increase of 12 percent.

A large proportion of fall deaths are due to complications following a hip fracture. One out of five hip fracture patients dies within a year of their injury. Treatment typically includes surgery and hospitalization, usually for about one week, and is frequently followed by admission to a nursing home and extensive rehabilitation. In both men and women, hip fracture rates increase exponentially with age. People 85 and older are 10 to 15 times more likely to sustain hip fractures than are those aged 60 to 65.

For younger, extremely active patients, hip resurfacing, a bone-preserving hip replacement, is often indicated. It requires few restrictions after surgery and helps preserve an extremely active lifestyle after hip surgery.

Hip fracture patients at Ochsner benefit from having a dedicated hospitalist team working alongside the orthopedic surgeon to treat the entire patient, leading to best-in-class outcomes and survival from these injuries.

Why Ochsner Hospital for Children for orthopedic care?

Here at Ochsner, your child will be treated by a passionate, world-renowned team composed of fellowship-trained, board-certified physicians, nurse practitioners, pediatric casting specialists and dedicated medical assistants. Together, we treat a complete range of acquired and congenital orthopedic conditions – both common and rare – in children from infancy through age 18. We specialize in pediatric spine surgery, scoliosis and ankle surgery and in the treatment of children’s fractures and dislocations, as well as in infections and tumors of the spine and extremities.

Ochsner Hospital for Children offers innovative procedures that are not available anywhere else in the region. For instance, fewer than a dozen centers in the world offer spine growth modulation – a minimally invasive procedure that helps the spine heal itself.

We also offer a new device called the MAGEC (MAGnetic Expansion Control) System for use in children with severe spinal deformities. The implanted MAGEC spinal rod braces the spine to minimize the progression of scoliosis.

Shorter hospital stays. Less pain.

Whenever possible, the Ochsner pediatric orthopedic team opts for minimally invasive procedures that result in less pain and shorter hospital stays. Our rapid discharge protocols allow many of our surgical patients to go home to their families in two to three days instead of the standard four to five. When appropriate, we offer nonoperative options, including exercise and physical therapy.

Ochsner Hospital for Children offers innovative procedures that are not available anywhere else in the region.

Haber L, Womack E, Shrader M etal. Who Needs a PICU after PSF for AIS. A consecutive series of 99 patients trying to predict which idiopathic scoliosis patients are at risk for hypotension after posterior spinal fusion. The study found that the incidence is still significant and no preoperative or intraoperative parameters were predictive. The only predictive factor was that patients who did not have issues with hypotension in the first four hours were stable throughout the recovery period. Based on this, for institutions not want to use a PICU, we propose the possibility of a 4 hour PICU or PACU stay before patients are sent to the Floor postoperatively. Submitted to Spine Deformity.

Haber L, Shrader W, et al. Long Term Results of Spine Stapling. Spine Stapling was a method used mostly from 200–2010 to modulate and straighten scoliosis with a minimally invasive and motion sparing technique. We followed 15 curves stapled from 2005–2008 to skeletal maturity to study long term effectives and safety. Presented at International Meeting for Advance Spine Techniques 2016 and to be presented at American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Me3eting 2017. In final preparation for submission for publication.
