Abstract

The 2025 American Joint Replacement Registry Annual Report includes 4.6 million hip and knee arthroplasty procedures, with 4,434,668 validated cases, representing a 20% increase from the prior report. Registry participation continues to expand, with contributions from over 5000 surgeons and 1200 institutions, including an increasing submission of patient-reported outcome measures. A key methodological change includes the adoption of Kaplan–Meier survivorship analysis, allowing improved assessment of time-dependent revision risk. Ongoing efforts to improve data completeness and registry infrastructure continue to support registry-driven research. The full report can be accessed at https://www.aaos.org/registries/publications/ajrr-annual-report/.
