Teaming up with KenSci, a data science company located in Seattle, Wash., Exactech has been at the forefront of using ML to better predict outcomes and complications after shoulder arthroplasty. This work is based on Exactech’s clinical database which includes over 11,000 patient visits from 35 centers around the world–all using a standardized data collection tool that records information on demographics, diagnosis, comorbidities, preoperative function, implant information and post-operative function at multiple time points. Predict+ was built on ML algorithms which established a 19-input minimal feature set that was most highly predictive of outcomes and complications after anatomic or reverse shoulder arthroplasty.
