Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2024:103847. [PMID: 38417784 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2024.103847] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent condition in Taiwan, and the incidence of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is on the rise. This study aimed to evaluate the postoperative results of patients with different degrees of CKD after TKA, using data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. METHODS The study analyzed 3078 patients who received TKA from 2012 to 2017, equally divided into three groups: none-CKD, mild CKD (without dialysis), and severe CKD (with dialysis). Propensity score matching was used to minimize selection bias. RESULTS After TKA, there was no significant difference in the risk of debridement surgery for infection between the three groups (adjusted HR of mild CKD: 0.71 95% CI=0.36-1.38, p=0.3073; adjusted HR of severe CKD: 1.14, 95% CI=0.63-2.06, p=0.6616). However, CKD patients requiring dialysis had a significantly higher risk of mortality (adjusted HR: 1.98, 95% CI=1.57-2.50, p<0.001) and readmission within 90days of any causes (adjusted HR: 1.83, 95% CI=1.48-2.26, p<0.001) than non-CKD and mild CKD patients. CONCLUSION Severe CKD patients needing dialysis after TKA have a higher risk of mortality and readmission rates than that of the non-CKD or mild CKD patients. If the patient is in the early stage of CKD, their prognosis after receiving TKA is expected to be as good as non-CKD patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV; well-designed cohort study.

Impact of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease on Outcomes After Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Meta-analysis and Systematic Review. Indian J Orthop 2022; 57:211-226. [PMID: 36777112 PMCID: PMC9880123 DOI: 10.1007/s43465-022-00794-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 10/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Background Comorbid chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is increasingly common and may have an adverse impact on outcomes in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty (TJA) of lower extremity. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to compare the postoperative complications between COPD and non-COPD patients undergoing primary TJA including total hip and knee arthroplasty. Methods PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched for relevant studies published before December 2021. Postoperative outcomes were compared between patients with COPD versus those without COPD as controls. The outcomes were mortality, re-admission, pulmonary, cardiac, renal, thromboembolic complications, surgical site infection (SSI), periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), and sepsis. Results A total of 1,002,779 patients from nine studies were finally included in this meta-analysis. Patients with COPD had an increased risk of mortality (OR [odds ratio] = 1.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.42-2.02), re-admission (OR = 1.54, 95% CI 1.38-1.71), pulmonary complications (OR = 2.73, 95% CI 2.26-3.30), cardiac complications (OR = 1.40, 95% CI 1.15-1.69), thromboembolic complications (OR = 1.21, 95% CI 1.15-1.28), renal complications (OR = 1.50, 95% CI 1.14-1.26), SSI (OR = 1.23, 95% CI 1.18-1.30), PJI (OR = 1.26, 95% CI 1.15-1.38), and sepsis (OR = 1.36, 95% CI 1.22-1.52). Conclusion Patients with comorbid COPD showed an increased risk of mortality and postoperative complications following TJA compared with patients without COPD. Therefore, orthopedic surgeons can use the study to adequately educate these potential complications when obtaining informed consent. Furthermore, preoperative evaluation and medical optimization are crucial to minimizing postoperative complications from arising in this difficult-to-treat population. Level of evidence Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hip fractures are a commonly occurring comorbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease. To evaluate the comparative rates of post-operative complications, revision surgery, and mortality after hip fracture surgery in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. METHODS A systematic search of the academic literature was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines across five databases: Web of Science, EMBASE, CENTRAL, Scopus, and MEDLINE. A random-effect meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the overall comparative risks of post-operative complications in chronic kidney disease patients. RESULTS Out of 993 studies, 11 eligible studies were included in the review, with a total of 72618 chronic kidney disease patients (mean age: 75.3 ± 3.0 years), and 50566 healthy controls (75.3 ± 2.6 years). Meta-analysis revealed a higher risk of post-operative complications (Odd's ratio: 1.76), revision surgeries (1.69), and mortality-related outcomes (2.47) after hip fracture surgery in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis as compared to chronic kidney disease patients not undergoing hemodialysis. CONCLUSION We report higher risks of post-operative complications, revision surgery, and mortality in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis as compared to chronic kidney disease patients not undergoing hemodialysis.

INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2022; 46:1637-1645. [PMID: 35166874 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-022-05347-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Elderly patients with femoral neck fractures (FNFs) undergoing hemiarthroplasty usually have poor physical condition. The main aim of this study was to identify risk factors for blood transfusion in these patients and construct a nomogram to intuitively predict the requirement of transfusion. The secondary purpose was to examine the relationship between blood transfusion and complications within 30 days post-operatively. Our hypothesis was that chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypoalbuminemia may increase the requirement of transfusion. METHODS Data of 414 elderly patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty for FNFs were retrospectively collected. Univariate and multiple regression analysis were performed to identify independent risk factors for blood transfusion, which were used to construct a nomogram subsequently. The discrimination and calibration of the nomogram model were assessed with concordance index (C-index), the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), and calibration curve. Furthermore, the complications of blood transfusion within 30 days post-operatively were also analyzed. RESULTS Out of 414 patients, 127 (30.7%) received a blood transfusion. Independent risk factors for blood transfusion included CKD, hypoalbuminemia, pre-operative anaemia, general anaesthesia, higher American Society of Anesthesiologists score, more intraoperative blood loss, and longer surgical time. Increased hidden blood loss, deep vein thrombosis, superficial wound infection, and prolonged hospital stays were more common in transfused patients. The C-index of the nomogram model was 0.848 (95% CI = 0.811-0.885), and the AUC value was 0.859. The calibration curve showed a good consistency between the actual transfusion and the predicted probability. DISCUSSION We observed a transfusion rate of 30.7% in elderly FNF patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty. CKD and hypoalbuminemia were firstly identified as independent risk for blood transfusion. In addition, blood transfusion can increase the occurrence of early post-operative complications. CONCLUSION Targeted pre-operative intervention, such as optimizing CKD and correcting hypoalbuminemia is essential and highly regarded.

Abstract
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have inferior outcomes after hip and knee total joint arthroplasty (TJA), with higher risk for surgical site complications (SSC) and periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis regarding outcomes after hip and knee TJA in ESRD patients who have received dialysis or a kidney transplant (KT) using PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane Reviews, and Embase in order to: (1) determine the mortality and infection rate of TJA in patients receiving dialysis or KT and (2) to identify risk factors associated with the outcome. We included 22 studies and 9384 patients (dialysis, n = 8921, KT, n = 463). The overall mortality rate was 14.9% and was slightly higher in KT patients (dialysis vs. KT, 13.8% vs. 15.8%). The overall SSC rate was 3.4%, while dialysis and KT patients each had an incidence of 3.3% and 3.6%, respectively. For PJI, the overall rate was 3.9%, while the incidence for dialysis patients was 4.0% and for KT patients was 3.7%. Using multi-regression analysis, age, sex, the type of arthroplasty (knee or hip) performed, and the form of renal replacement therapy (dialysis or KT) were not significant risk factors. In patients on dialysis or who had received a KT, TJA is associated with a slight increase in mortality, SSC and PJI rates.

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is associated with lower proportions of surgical site infection compared with total knee arthroplasty: A retrospective nationwide database study. Knee 2021; 28:124-130. [PMID: 33359944 DOI: 10.1016/j.knee.2020.11.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2020] [Revised: 09/18/2020] [Accepted: 11/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to clarify the association between types of knee arthroplasty (KA) (total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or unicompatmental knee arthroplasty (UKA)) and surgical site infection (SSI) with adjustment for various factors, using a Japanese national database. METHODS Data on 181,608 patients who underwent unilateral primary KA for osteoarthritis from 2010 to 2017 were obtained from the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination database. SSI was identified based on International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision codes. Deep SSI (i.e. periprosthetic joint infection (PJI)) was identified as SSI treated with surgical procedures. Multivariable logistic regression analyses for SSI and PJI were performed, in which dependent variables included types of KA, patient backgrounds (sex, age, body mass index (BMI), smoking status, comorbidities), and seasonality. RESULTS Eight percent of analyzed patients underwent UKA, while 92% underwent TKA. The proportions of SSI and PJI after UKA were 0.9% and 0.3%, respectively, both of which were lower than those after TKA (1.9% and 0.6%) (P < 0.001). Multivariable analyses showed lower proportions of SSI for UKA (adjusted odds ratio, 0.47; 95% confidence interval, 0.37-0.60; P < 0.001) and PJI (adjusted odds ratio, 0.47; 95% confidence interval, 0.34-0.65; P < 0.001) than TKA. Other factors associated with both SSI and PJI included male sex, BMI >30 kg/m2, renal dysfunction and summer season. CONCLUSION UKA was associated with lower proportions of SSI and PJI than TKA. Surgeons should carefully consider the indication of UKA before performing TKA, especially in patients with knee unicompartmental osteoarthritis who are at a high risk for SSI or PJI.
