About
Jorien Deferm is a rising orthopedic researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through comparative effectiveness research. Her primary research focus is evaluating robotic-assisted surgical techniques against conventional methods, with particular attention to postoperative safety and recovery outcomes. Deferm’s most cited study, a single-centre retrospective cohort analysis of NAVIO robotic-assisted TKA (RATKA), demonstrated comparable rates of hemoglobin drop, adverse events, readmission, and early revision when compared to conventional TKA. This work, with 11 citations, provides crucial evidence that robotic assistance does not compromise patient safety while offering potential surgical precision benefits. Her research also examines practical metrics such as length of stay and surgical time, contributing valuable data for clinical decision-making. Deferm’s work is particularly significant for surgeons and hospitals weighing the adoption of robotic technologies, as it offers real-world evidence on outcomes and complications. Her findings help bridge the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice, making her a notable voice in the evolving landscape of orthopedic surgery.
