About

Brandon S. Gettleman is a rising researcher in orthopaedic surgery, with a focused expertise in technology-assisted joint arthroplasty. His work critically evaluates the real-world outcomes of computer-navigated and robotic-assisted total knee and hip arthroplasty, addressing a pivotal question in modern orthopaedics: whether these advanced technologies translate to better patient outcomes. His most-cited paper, "Computer-Navigated and Robotic-Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty: Increasing in Popularity Without Increasing Complications" (2022, 63 citations), provides reassuring evidence that while the adoption of these techniques is surging, they do not introduce additional risks, a key finding for surgeons and patients alike. Gettleman’s subsequent work on total hip arthroplasty further characterizes postoperative outcomes and opioid consumption, offering granular data on recovery and pain management in technology-assisted procedures. By combining large-scale database analysis with a focus on patient-centric metrics like opioid use, his research helps guide clinical decision-making in an era of rapid technological adoption. His contributions are particularly valuable for students and clinicians seeking evidence-based clarity on the benefits and safety of robotic and navigated surgery in joint replacement.
