Dear Residency Program,

My name is Brigid Kennedy, and I am a medical student at the University of Michigan. I am asking for your help distributing electronic surveys to your residents aimed at exploring orthopaedic residents’ attitudes and experience with cementing during hip arthroplasty procedures.

This study has been deemed IRB exempt, and resident responses will be recorded using indirect identifiers and only their demographic data will be collected. The survey will take 5 minutes or less to complete.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me or our study group for any questions or concerns. Our goal is to complete data collection within the next month.

Survey: https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3ORBk5UV8yhmCua

Thank you so much and Go Blue,

Brigid
