As an orthopaedic surgeon, Dr. David Manning specializes in
primary and revision hip and knee joint replacement surgery, as
well as partial knee replacement, and hip resurfacing. He uses
minimally invasive surgical techniques when performing primary
hip and knee replacement as well as when performing partial knee
replacement. Dr. Manning has pioneered the use of multi-modal
pain management techniques in the care of joint replacement
patients at the University of Chicago. Patients receiving
minimally invasive joint replacements and multimodal pain
management are candidates for the “Early Walk” program. Patients
enrolled in this progressive program walk the day of surgery.
The techniques employed in Dr. Manning’s joint replacement
program allow patients to achieve independence and routinely
return home in 24 to 48 hours. Traditional approaches to joint
replacement are predominantly reserved for patients with severe
deformities as well as the revision surgery scenario.
Dr. Manning's research focuses on improving the longevity of hip
and knee replacements. Specifically, he has shown that newer
joint replacement bearing surfaces wear at a lower rate than
their traditional counterparts. Dr. Manning is also involved
with the investigation of how joint replacements fail, and how
that process may be affected by gene therapy. In support of Dr.
Manning’s on-going efforts has recently been awarded the
Geraldine Mary Maley Orthopaedic Science Research Award.
An invited lecturer across the country, Dr. Manning has also won
the University of Chicago’s Laros Teaching Award--which
recognizes excellence in resident education. He is an active
member of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons and
has authored many book chapters on topics related to hip and
knee replacement surgery.
