About
Dr. Jasmine E. Brite is a leading orthopaedic researcher whose work centers on optimizing outcomes in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), with a particular focus on alignment strategies and patient-reported recovery. Her major contributions include advancing the understanding of pre-arthritic/kinematic alignment in fixed-bearing medial UKA, demonstrating that this approach enables patients to return to high levels of activity at a mean 10-year follow-up—a landmark finding with 41 citations that challenges traditional alignment paradigms. Dr. Brite also pioneered the application of the patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS) to UKA, establishing clinically meaningful thresholds for postoperative function and showing that alignment technique significantly influences whether patients achieve an acceptable symptom state (29 citations). Her work bridges the gap between surgical biomechanics and real-world patient satisfaction, providing surgeons with evidence-based targets for both alignment and recovery expectations. With her research cited in leading orthopaedic journals and presented at international meetings, Dr. Brite is shaping the next generation of joint-preserving arthroplasty, making her a key voice for students and clinicians seeking to improve long-term outcomes in knee surgery.
