BACKGROUND
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic poses an important risk to global health.
METHODS
This study surveyed 370 international orthopedic surgeons affiliated with the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons to help identify the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patient care.
RESULTS
A total of 99 surgeons (27% of those surveyed) completed the questionnaire representing 32 different countries. Except for surgeons in Japan, all respondents noted that their practice had been affected to some degree and 70% of the surgeons have canceled elective procedures. More than a third of the surgeons have had to close their practices altogether and the remaining open practices were estimated to be sustainable for 7 weeks on average given their current situation.
CONCLUSION
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in marked changes to the majority of international arthroplasty practices.
背景
2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行对全球健康构成重大威胁。
方法
