Because the presence of surgeon-preferred staff affects operating room time and efficiency, orthopaedic surgeons should train multiple surgical teams so that efficiency is not affected by the loss of personnel during a case. To reduce 90-day complication rates in rTSA, staff breaks and turnover should be minimized as much as possible because this has a direct effect on patient outcomes. Effort from hospital administration and management should be put toward reducing turnover to improve patient outcomes.
