Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) is dedicated to being the source for innovation and leadership in education, training, research and information for local, national and international communities to prevent and treat musculoskeletal conditions. Our physicians, allied health professionals, alumni and staff aspire to be the “most trusted educator” for the general public, patients and healthcare professionals across the globe. In 2015, we forged a path for the next five years through a collaborative strategic planning process. In alignment with the HSS strategic plan, we set six goals to achieve by 2020:

Evidence-Based Educational Programming

Establish a broad consumer presence to benefit public health and extend the HSS brand through educational initiatives aimed at improving the health of the community.

Faculty/Clinical Partnerships

Align faculty and other clinicians to advance HSS as the most trusted educator in a changing healthcare environment.

Hub & Spoke Strategy

Leverage Education & Academic Affairs expertise to drive the HSS “hub and spoke strategy”—ensuring the highest level of quality.

Outcomes & Evaluation

Strategically collect and leverage outcomes data to drive the HSS value proposition and enhance brand recognition.

Marketing & Communications

Expand and strengthen the reputation of HSS as a global leader in multidisciplinary education through a dynamic and cohesive digital marketing and communications plan.

State-of-the-Art Technology

Maximize technology and other modalities to expand distance learning and support the mission of HSS.

There is a broad and deep consensus among HSS medical staff that in addition to delivering world-class patient care and performing innovative research, the institution remains committed to educating the next generation of specialists to improve the care of patients suffering from musculoskeletal diseases and conditions around the world. The Education and HSS strategic plans align to achieve this pursuit. 1

Extending Our Leadership Physical therapists and athletic trainers participate in a professional education program.

EDUCATION AT HSS: 2020 The 2015 Academic Retreat retreat had the theme of “Education at HSS: 2020.” More than 40 HSS leaders met to clarify priorities, processes and resources to fulfill the educational mission of the institution and ensure that educational programs align with the HSS strategic plan. Participants collectively addressed the question, “What needs to be our strategy in the next five years to make HSS the global leader in musculoskeletal education?” A key outcome of the retreat was the re-organization of the HSS Education Governance structure, integrating core areas across the education continuum. Spearheading this streamlined structure was the creation of the Education & Academic Affairs Council (EAAC), led by Mathias P. Bostrom, MD, Vice Chair of Education & Academic Affairs, to provide leadership, expertise and advisement on Hospital for Special Surgery’s education mission, and address recommendations made at the retreat such as:

■

trategically broadening the HSS educational footprint S through enhanced professional education and international exchange programs, accessible to national and international audiences

■

xpanding content on the HSS eAcademy® digital E platform

■

ifferentiating HSS from others as the place to access D the world’s best musculoskeletal content and education

■

I dentifying opportunities to grow and improve all areas in the education trajectory

Four additional Councils report up to the EAAC including the GME Council, Professional Education Council, Global Education Council (which collaborates with the Global Advisory Services) and the Education Modalities Council—foundational to all of the Councils. The EAAC also collaborates with the Community Benefit & Services Committee which provides leadership and advisement about HSS community benefit programming.

Innovating Education Innovation is vital to advancing educational initiatives and building upon HSS’s global reputation as a leader in healthcare delivery and performance. Several new initiatives and novel projects were implemented in 2015 toward the HSS goal of being “the most trusted educator.”

Mathias P. Bostrom, MD and Anne M. Kelly, MD speaking with HSS residents.

QUALITY IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES ENHANCING PATIENT OUTCOMES “Foot drop” is a potential complication of joint replacement surgery that results from nerve damage and renders patients unable to raise a foot or toes. While uncommon, it may become irreversible, adversely impairing quality of life and mobility. Collaborating with the House Staff Quality & Safety Council, clinical staff and HSS residents, we developed the Quality Improvement Continuing Education (QICE) Initiative—a standardized 4

approach to identifying this neurological deficit early so it can be treated quickly and improve patient outcomes. QICE kicked off in April 2015 with online modules, followed by multi-session training “boot camps.” Data from the online modules and practical application of the algorithm during boot camps showed that knowledge and communication increased for staff who completed the program. Initiatives such as these improve practitioner knowledge as well as patient safety.

HSS Named Top Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Program in the U.S. SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR The physician network Doximity released a national evaluation of medical and surgical residency programs across 20 medical specialties. We are proud to announce that HSS has been top ranked for the second straight year. HSS was ranked first in both reputation and research output. Additionally, HSS received 5 out of 5 stars in overall satisfaction based on the alumni surveyed.

The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) conducted an institutional site visit and granted HSS Continued Accreditation as a Sponsoring Institution of Graduate Medical Education.

A “FLIPPED” APPROACH TO CLASSROOM LEARNING Resident physicians at HSS have more and more information to absorb each year—making every minute devoted to their instruction increasingly valuable. A “flipped classroom” model was implemented, leveraging our digital technology resources and HSS eAcademy® portal to augment resident education. In this model, HSS faculty develop lectures that are prerecorded and posted online through the HSS eAcademy® platform for residents to view before their morning lecture. When residents arrive for the on-site lecture with the faculty, this format allows the discussion of that day’s topic to be interactive and dynamic. An audience response system (ARS) enables faculty to poll residents during the lecture to assess knowledge of the material and enhance engagement with questions they can answer in real time. In 2015, content was uploaded for 27 curriculum sessions and viewed by 140 unique learners. 5

Forging Connections Through Technology

Advances in technology have brought with them extraordinary opportunities to connect the exceptional educational programs at HSS with multiple audiences, including professional staff, trainees, alumni and members of the community. HSS eACADEMY®: REACHING MORE LEARNERS The HSS online learning platform, HSS eAcademy®, continued its growth with new programs and a record number of members in 123 countries. In 2015, live-streaming webinars averaged 350 participants and reached more than 50 nations. Interactivity during live-streaming webinars was expanded significantly with the introduction of a virtual chat room. This functionality enables real-time, two-way communication and supports exchange of questions and ideas by both faculty and participants around the world. There are also new ways learners can access HSS eAcademy® content, including on-demand video modules and facilitated access to articles and publications, such as HSS Journal®, Grand Rounds from HSS/Management of Complex Cases, What’s the Diagnosis, and Ultrasound of the Month. Member engagement in HSS eAcademy® increased two and a half times in 2015, with total course enrollments exceeding 21,000.

ENGAGING HSS ALUMNI With over 2,000 alumni in 48 states and 36 countries, the Office of Alumni Affairs continues to nurture relationships to build a valuable network. In 2015, the Alumni Association unveiled its enhanced user-friendly and interactive website. With a focus on alumni leadership and achievement, the revitalized website highlights the Alumni Association’s activities and fosters alumni collaboration and engagement. SUPPORTING THE HUB & SPOKE STRATEGY Education Media Services (EMS) provides integrated solutions for professional, public and patient education by improving audio and visual experience while increasing the value, quality and service of healthcare education. In 2015, EMS was able to enrich the learning environment and support faculty and administrative staff at the institution’s spoke sites by making available HSS Medical Staff Conferences and Rehabilitation Grand Rounds in real time, along with core institutional programs ranging from CEO Town Hall Forums to the Culture of Safety Day keynote speaker, Wholeness of Life Award, and Spirituality Forum.

HSS eAcademy® offerings increased by 45% with more than 250 new courses

Provided community health education to more than 21,000 web viewers

HSS eAcademy® expanded its membership by 54% to more than 8,900 members in 123 countries

HARNESSING THE POWER OF TELEMEDICINE A gift from Rita and Gustave Hauser allowed HSS to enhance our core education center and provide a true network operations center for all video conferences, webcasts and live meetings hosted at HSS. In 2015, we were able to integrate audio/video recording into two operating rooms. This enhancement gives HSS the ability to develop surgical videos and creates a live teaching environment accessible from anywhere, on or off campus. Indeed, surgical video production doubled in 2015, with videos created or in development by virtually all services. STREAMLINED CREDENTIALING The rapid credentialing of medical professionals facilitates the connection of patients with the world’s best musculoskeletal specialists at HSS. This year alone, Medical Staff Services credentialed over 800 physicians and allied health professionals. An additional 169 orthopaedic surgeons maintained appointments on the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital medical staff. To help facilitate this process, Medical Staff Services implemented an electronic method, called AppCentral, to collect and process credentialing applications.

NAVIGATING LIBRARY RESOURCES In the past five years, usage of the Kim Barrett Memorial Library has expanded every year, from 6,877 users in 2009 to 14,286 in 2015—a 108 percent increase. As library resources increase, users benefit from facilitated methods to access them. The library is developing brief online how-to videos to support navigating library resources. Library users are not the only ones benefiting from new technology: orientations for incoming residents and fellows were shifted from a live to an on-demand video format. The library was one of the first to adapt this new format to orient newly hired house staff members. Finally, supported by a grant from the Metropolitan New York Library Council, HSS Archives was able to digitize annual reports from 1940 through 1979, making our unique history more easily available on the Internet Archives (www.archive.org).

Over 800 physicians and health care providers were credentialed at HSS

Global Education to Improve Health and Well-Being The HSS Asian Community Bone Health Initiative holds an exercise class.

ENHANCING PUBLIC HEALTH Ever since its establishment in 1863, HSS has maintained a commitment to the health of its diverse community. Today, education plays a crucial role in maintaining that commitment. In 2015, the Public and Patient Education Department facilitated nearly 450 educational and exercise classes to the public. Two new programs were implemented—the HSS ACL Injury Reduction Program, funded by a generous grant aimed at preventing ACL injuries in young athletes; and a Stress Management Program in collaboration with the HSS Ambulatory Care Center aimed at reducing anxiety in patients who are getting ready for surgery. Community education also extends beyond New York City to the residents of southeastern Connecticut and northern Westchester County through the HSS Stamford Outpatient Center, which opened in February 2015. Outcomes assessments show that these initiatives are benefiting the populations they were created to serve. Participants in HSS exercise wellness classes have reported a positive impact on their health outcomes, with more than 90 percent reporting less pain, over 75 percent reporting less stiffness, and 67 percent saying they felt less tired after participating in the program. More than 82 percent of participants in the HSS Asian Community Bone Health Initiative reported feeling less pain in their muscles and joints, and over 90 percent had less stiffness and felt less tired. In addition, 95 percent noted that they had better balance, while 81 percent reported fewer falls.

EXPANDING KNOWLEDGE AROUND THE WORLD Chinese surgeons visited HSS through the HSS-China Orthopaedic Education Exchange Program. In addition, the HSS-Peking University-Peking Union Medical College Arthroplasty Symposium was held in Chongqing, China in November 2015, drawing 130 attendees. Educational programs for Greek orthopaedic surgeons continued 8

to be offered through the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Orthopaedic Seminar Program. The 8th Seminar Program, held at HSS in December 2015, hosted 16 Greek orthopaedic surgeons.

SIMULATING SURGERY The Bioskills Education Laboratory (BSEL) at HSS is an extraordinary simulated surgical training facility with equipment similar to that in operating rooms, enabling trainees to become familiar with orthopaedic surgical devices. In 2015, the BSEL received three-year reaccreditation from the American College of Surgeons as a Focused Education Institute. The lab facilitated 450 lab sessions encompassing core teaching sessions, clinician independent study, special sessions taught by visiting alumni, research, product development and CME activities. Collectively, 2,367 learners benefited from these activities. EDUCATING SPORTS MEDICINE SPECIALISTS Professional Education continued to collaborate with external partners including Major League Soccer, with whom we held a Medical Symposium in Florida that attracted more than 160 physicians, rehabilitation professionals and athletic trainers, and the American College of Sports MedicineGreater New York Regional Chapter whose Annual Meeting reached more than 110 exercise specialists and physical therapists.

Extending the Brand Through Communications Strategic marketing integrating a wide variety of communication campaigns have elevated awareness and use of HSS educational offerings on a global scale. By cultivating outreach of programs and publications through a robust communication strategy encompassing print, email and social media distribution, we extended the reach of the HSS brand by over 1.7 million to musculoskeletal professionals and community members worldwide. Now, more than 600,000 subscribers regularly receive notifications of education programs, publications and resources. HSS “LINKS” eNEWSLETTERS In 2015, HSS created a series of targeted monthly electronic newsletters—HSS OrthoLink, HSS RheumLink and HSS RehabLink—directed at orthopaedic surgeons, rheumatologists and rehabilitation specialists, respectively. Emails introducing these links contain specialty-relevant educational programming announcements and new content from HSS, as well as a select digest of educational items for their patients. This effort is a multi-departmental initiative, forging collaboration with professional education, rehabilitation, digital communications, marketing, public relations and social media. More than 190,500 individuals across the globe receive these emails each month.

HSS JOURNAL® HSS Journal publishes original, peer-reviewed research and review articles along the spectrum of musculoskeletal diseases and conditions. Overall readership and usage increased in 2015. Article downloads continued to trend upward, with over 62,000 full-text downloads. Awareness of HSS Journal® content was also elevated through social media channels, such as tweets of relevant articles and free-access campaigns. In 2015, the journal also hosted a Medical and Scientific Writers’ Workshop to teach residents, fellows and young practitioners how to communicate their research and increase their chances of being published.

10 Proper Shoes Can Get You Off on the Right Foot

Check with your doctor before embarking on any new exercise program.

Feet They walked you into your first class at kindergarten and across the stage at your high school graduation. They may take you up a wedding aisle or through the park when you walk your dog. They’re the first part of your body to touch the floor in the morning and the last to leave the earth before you go to bed.

So when your feet aren’t at their best, you aren’t either. From bunions to flat feet to aches and pains and pinches, foot disorders can keep you from getting you where you want to go comfortably. Here are some of the most common foot disorders, and what you can do to treat them so you can get back to doing the activities you enjoy.

FLAT FEET We all had flat feet at some time in our early lives. Most of us outgrow them, but in some people, the arch never fully forms. Flat feet most often occur because certain tendons in the feet are loose. For the vast majority of people, flat feet don’t cause any problems, and therefore don’t need any treatment. But some people with flat feet walk with their feet rolling inward, putting stress on the ankles or knees. In fact, many people who see a doctor for

”

knee, hip, or back pain actually have flat feet. Your arches act as shock absorbers — and when they’re flat, that shock can be taken up in other joints. If your flat feet are causing you discomfort, there are steps you can take to relieve it. Orthotic inserts for your shoes can support your feet, keep them from rolling inward, and take stress off of your other joints. Some inserts are available over the counter, while custom-made orthotics can be prescribed by

This volume of Grand Rounds from HSS focuses on foot and ankle surgery. We offer challenging cases presented by HSS Foot and Ankle specialists; three patients who presented with malalignment, instability and disabling pain who had previously undergone unsuccessful procedures for relatively common conditions. Each case required diagnostic acumen and multifaceted revision surgery in order to restore proper alignment and comfortable function for these very encumbered patients. In the first case, Chief of the HSS Foot and Ankle Service, Matthew Roberts, Scott Ellis and Elizabeth Cody revised a failed triple arthrodesis in a 66-year-old woman with severe flatfoot deformity. The second case involved a 75-year-old woman who presented with progressive valgus deformity of the ankle along with worsening pain, one year after a failed triple arthrodesis and deltoid ligament reconstruction. Scott Ellis and Constantine Demetracopoulos, assisted by Dylan Soukup, performed total ankle replacement, using a stemmed, fixed-bearing prosthesis. First tarsometatarsal fusion was also necessary to achieve neutral forefoot alignment. In the final case, Foot and Ankle specialist Mark Drakos collaborated with Limb Lengthening and Complex Reconstruction specialist Austin Fragomen in performing complex, staged revision surgery on a 27-year-old woman after failed cavovarus hindfoot reconstruction. All volumes of this publication also available on www.hss.edu/complexcases, where you will find additional images and references as well as links to related articles. We hope you find these cases to be of interest and the principles presented informative. Comments are always welcome at complexcases@hss.edu.
