 The 20th Anniversary of a Vision
That Became a Reality
By Mike Egan, Chief Executive Officer, SteadmanHawkins Research Foundation
In 1988, Dr. Richard Steadman had a vision of documenting the results of every patient treated at the Steadman-Hawkins Clinic, but he didn't have a vehicle to
make his vision a reality. As a result, he founded what is now known as the SteadmanHawkins Research Foundation - the perfect
platform to house a base of scientific evidence that would support some of his innovative orthopaedic techniques, including the breakthrough procedure of microfracture.
This year we are celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Foundation. It has become an internationally recognized research institute that is leading the world in sports
medicine clinical research. The Foundation makes it possible to collect, organize, analyze, and make available to the world's medical and research communities hundreds
of data points on every Steadman-Hawkins patient. We don't pick and choose whose data will be entered into the database. We include everybody. This vast collection
of information positioned the Foundation as a leader in evidence-based medicine long before the term became popular.
