Overview

Johan Kärrholm is affiliated with the University of Gothenburg in Sweden and has a significant body of research predominantly in the field of Medicine, with a focus on Surgery and Orthopedics and Sports Medicine. Their work covers a variety of topics related to orthopaedic implants, arthroplasty, and associated clinical outcomes.

Their research frequently addresses subjects such as:

  • Orthopaedic implants and arthroplasty
  • Total Knee Arthroplasty Outcomes
  • Orthopedic Infections and Treatments
  • Hip disorders and treatments
  • Hip and Femur Fractures
  • Advanced X-ray and CT Imaging
  • Health Systems, Economic Evaluations, Quality of Life

Kärrholm has contributed extensively to scholarly publications, particularly in the following venues:

  • Acta Orthopaedica
  • The Bone & Joint Journal
  • Bone Reports
  • Hip International
  • Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research

Recent notable publications include:

  • "Dislocation of hemiarthroplasty after hip fracture is common and the risk is increased with posterior approach: result from a national cohort of 25,678 individuals in the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register" (2021, Acta Orthopaedica)
  • "Guideline for RSA and CT-RSA implant migration measurements: an update of standardizations and recommendations" (2024, Acta Orthopaedica)
  • "Global diversity in bearings in primary THA" (2020, EFORT Open Reviews)
  • "Computed tomography-based radiostereometric analysis in orthopedic research: practical guidelines" (2023, Acta Orthopaedica)
  • "Uncemented or cemented stems in first-time revision total hip replacement? An observational study of 867 patients including assessment of femoral bone defect size" (2020, Acta Orthopaedica)

Throughout their career, Kärrholm has collaborated with several frequent co-authors, including:

  • Maziar Mohaddes
  • Ola Rolfson
  • Søren Overgaard
  • Alma B Pedersen
  • Antti Eskelinen

The primary disciplines in their research involve Surgery, with close intersections in Biomedical Engineering and Orthopedics and Sports Medicine. A smaller portion of their work also relates to Economics and Oncology.
