BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic poses an important risk to global health. METHODS: This study surveyed 370 international orthopedic surgeons affiliated with the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons to help identify the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patient care. RESULTS: A total of 99 surgeons (27% of those surveyed) completed the questionnaire representing 32 different countries. Except for surgeons in Japan, all respondents noted that their practice had been affected to some degree and 70% of the surgeons have canceled elective procedures. More than a third of the surgeons have had to close their practices altogether and the remaining open practices were estimated to be sustainable for 7 weeks on average given their current situation. CONCLUSION: The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in marked changes to the majority of international arthroplasty practices.
