Associations Between Patients' Primary Language and Outcomes and Patient Engagement Process Metrics for Total Joint Arthroplasty
Our findings highlight language-based disparities in patient engagement metrics but comparable outcomes. Differences in findings compared with past literature may be related to institution-specific language-related support systems. There is a need for additional resources to support patients' active participation in their care, regardless of their primary spoken language.
