About

Andrew Fuqua is an emerging orthopedic researcher focused on the evolving role of technology in joint replacement surgery. His work centers on the utilization and outcomes of technology-assisted navigation in knee arthroplasty, particularly in unicompartmental and total knee procedures. Fuqua’s most-cited paper, "Trends in Utilization of Technology-Assisted Navigation in Unicompartmental and Total Knee Arthroplasty Between 2009 and 2022," published in 2025, provides a critical longitudinal analysis of how surgical navigation has been adopted over more than a decade. This study, already garnering early citations, documents shifting practice patterns and highlights the growing integration of digital tools in orthopedic surgery. By mapping these trends, Fuqua offers valuable insights for surgeons and healthcare systems considering the adoption of navigation technologies. His work contributes to the broader conversation on precision, efficiency, and patient outcomes in arthroplasty. As an early-career researcher, Fuqua is establishing a foundation in evidence-based orthopedic innovation, and his timely analysis positions him as a contributor to the future of data-driven surgical practice.
