About

Hashim J.F. Shaikh is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of orthopedic surgery and emerging digital technologies. His work focuses on the transformative potential of extended reality (XR) and artificial intelligence (AI) in hip and knee arthroplasty, exploring how these tools can reshape preoperative planning, intraoperative guidance, and postoperative rehabilitation. Shaikh’s most-cited paper, "Exposure to Extended Reality and Artificial Intelligence-Based Manifestations: A Primer on the Future of Hip and Knee Arthroplasty" (2023), has garnered 25 citations, establishing a foundational framework for integrating immersive simulations and AI-driven analytics into joint replacement procedures. This primer serves as a critical resource for surgeons and engineers, outlining both the promise and the pitfalls of these technologies. Beyond this, Shaikh’s broader research addresses the ethical and practical challenges of adopting digital innovations in clinical settings, emphasizing patient safety and surgeon training. His work is notable for its forward-looking perspective, bridging the gap between current surgical practices and the next generation of computer-assisted orthopedics. As a thought leader in this niche, Shaikh is shaping how the field prepares for a future where XR and AI become standard tools in the operating room.
