J Orthop Sci 2024; 29:585-588. [PMID: 36822946 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2023.02.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the survival rate, postoperative complications, and walking ability in cemented hemiarthroplasty (HA) for displaced femoral neck fractures according to the anaesthesia method. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of a multicentre group (the TRON group). Three hundred fifty-eight patients who underwent cemented HA between 2015 and 2019 were selected; 289 patients of ≥75 years of age with no missing data were included. Patient background factors were matched and patients were assigned to spinal anaesthesia (SA) and general anaesthesia (GA) groups. The primary outcome was death at any time during the follow-up period. Secondary outcomes included postoperative complications and walking ability assessed using the Parker mobility score (PMS). Overall survival was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and differences were compared using the log-rank test. The incidence of each complication and PMS were compared between the two groups using Fisher's exact test. RESULTS Overall survival during follow-up was significantly higher in the SA group in comparison to the GA group (p = 0.037). In the SA and GA groups, the survival rate at 3 months postoperatively was 98.4% and 95.5%, respectively. The incidence of postoperative pneumonia was significantly higher in the GA (p = 0.012), and PMS at 3 months postoperatively was significantly higher in the SA group (p = 0.016). CONCLUSION The survival rate of elderly patients who underwent cemented HA was better in the SA group. General anaesthesia in cemented HA may be associated with lower life expectancy, increased incidence of pneumonia, and decreased walking ability.

Neuraxial versus general anesthesia for perioperative outcomes and resource utilization following knee arthroplasty: experience from a large national database. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:2153-2163. [PMID: 35695925 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04483-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Attentions have been paid to the optimal anesthesia for knee arthroplasty (KA). We sought to investigate whether neuraxial anesthesia (NA) is superior to general anesthesia (GA) in terms of perioperative outcomes and resource utilization following KA. METHODS Patients undergoing primary KA registered in the Hospital Quality Monitoring System (HQMS) in China during 2013-2019 were identified. By utilizing a time-stratified propensity score matching, every patient receiving NA was matched by propensity score to a patient receiving GA. Then, we conducted Poisson, logistic, and linear regression to compare NA with GA in terms of perioperative outcomes and resource utilization. RESULTS Of 109,132 included participants, 75,945 (69.59%) underwent KA with GA and 33,187 (30.41%) with NA. After propensity score matching (26,425 participants per group), NA was associated with lower incidence of blood transfusion (OR: 0.82, 95% CI 0.77-0.87; p < 0.0001), 30-day readmission (OR: 0.76, 95% CI 0.68-0.84; p < 0.0001), and 90-day readmission (OR: 0.83, 95% CI 0.77-0.90; p < 0.0001). No statistically significant difference in in-hospital mortality, incidence of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and surgical site infection was found. In addition, NA was associated with a 1% decrease in length of stay (95% CI 0-2%; p = 0.0070) and a 3% lower total hospital charge (95% CI 2-4%; p < 0.0001) when compared with GA. CONCLUSION Compared with GA, NA was associated with decreased incidence of blood transfusion, readmission, reduced length of stay, and total hospital charge following KA, suggesting the favorable role of NA for perioperative outcomes and resource utilization in KA.

Neuraxial Anesthesia Significantly Reduces 30-Day Venous Thromboembolism Rate and Length of Hospital Stay in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Stratified Propensity Score-Matched Cohort Analysis. J Arthroplasty 2023; 38:108-116. [PMID: 35843379 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2021] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND General anesthesia (GA) has been the commonly used protocol for total hip arthroplasty (THA); however, neuraxial anesthesia (NA) has been increasingly performed. Our purpose was to compare NA and GA for 30-day postoperative outcomes in United States veterans undergoing primary THA. METHODS A large veteran's database was utilized to identify patients undergoing primary THA between 1999 and 2019. A total of 6,244 patients had undergone THA and were included in our study. Of these, 44,780 (79.6%) had received GA, and 10,788 (19.2%) had received NA. Patients receiving NA or GA were compared for 30-day mortalities, cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal complications, and wound infections and hospital lengths of stay (LOS). Propensity score matching, multivariate regression analyses, and subgroup analyses by American Society of Anesthesiology classification were performed to control for selection bias and patient baseline characteristics. RESULTS Upon propensity-adjusted multivariate analyses, NA was associated with decreased risks for deep venous thrombosis (odds ratio [OR] = 0.63; 95% CI = 0.4-0.9; P = .02), any respiratory complication (OR = 0.63; 95% CI = 0.5-0.9; P = .003), unplanned reintubation (OR = 0.51; 95% CI = 0.3-0.9; P = .009), and prolonged LOS (OR = 0.78; 95% CI = 0.72-0.84; P < .001). Subgroup analyses by American Society of Anesthesiology classes showed NA decreased 30-day venous thromboembolism rate in low-risk (class I/II) patients and decreased respiratory complications in high-risk (class III/IV) patients. CONCLUSION Using a patient cohort obtained from a large national database, NA was associated with reduced risk of 30-day adverse events compared to GA in patients undergoing THA. Postoperative adverse events were decreased with NA administration with similar decreases observed across all patient preoperative risk levels. NA was also associated with a significant decrease in hospital LOS.

Abstract
Lower extremity revascularization (LER) for peripheral artery disease in elderly patients is associated with a high risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to a conduct retrospective review and propensity score matching analysis to determine whether the use of regional anesthesia (RA) instead of general anesthesia (GA) in geriatric patients undergoing LER for peripheral artery disease results in improved short-term mortality and health outcomes. We reviewed medical records of 1271 patients aged >65 years who underwent LER at our center between May 1998 and February 2016. According to the anesthesia method, patients were grouped in the GA and RA groups. The primary outcome was short-term mortality (7-day and 30-day). The secondary outcomes were 5-year survival rate, intraoperative events, postoperative morbidity, and postoperative length of stay. A propensity score-matched cohort design was used to control for potentially confounding factors including patient demographics, comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status, and preoperative medications. After propensity score matching, 722 patients that received LER under GA (n = 269) or RA (n = 453) were identified. Patients from the GA group showed significantly higher 7-day mortality than those from the RA group (5.6% vs 2.7% P = .048); however, there was no significant difference in 30-day mortality between the groups (GA vs RA: 6.3% vs 3.6%, P = .083). The 5-year survival rate and incidence of arterial and central venous catheter placement or intraoperative dopamine and epinephrine use were significantly higher in the GA group than in the RA group (P < .05). In addition, the frequency of immediate postoperative oxygen therapy or mechanical ventilation support was higher in the GA group (P < .05). However, there was no difference in the postoperative cardiopulmonary and cerebral complications between the 2 groups. These results suggest that RA can reduce intraoperative hemodynamic support and provide immediate postoperative respiratory intensive care. In addition, the use of RA may be associated with better short-term and 5-year survival rates in geriatric patients undergoing LER.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The type of anesthesia used in total knee arthroplasty is one modifiable factor that could save hospital systems time and money. With spinal and general anesthesia having similar outcomes, more weight can be placed on these anesthesia methods' time or money-saving aspects. OBJECTIVE This study aims to determine the differences in time expenditure between spinal and general anesthesia for total knee arthroplasty to optimize OR efficiency and reduce costs. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 200 unilateral total knee arthroplasty procedures (CPT Code 27447) was performed from Jan 2017 - July 2019 at one institution. 100 of these received spinal anesthesia, and 100 received general anesthesia. Patient charts were reviewed to obtain demographic, surgical, and anesthetic data. RESULTS Time to prepare the patient for surgery and total preoperative time was significantly decreased in the general anesthesia group (24.4 minutes vs. 18.5 minutes; p=<0.0001 and 25.4 minutes vs. 20.4 minutes; p=0.012). After surgery, the time to remove the patient from the operating room was significantly decreased in the spinal group (4.8 minutes vs. 7.0 minutes; p= <0.0001). Nonoperative total time was not significantly different between the two groups (49.3 minutes vs. 46.6 minutes; p=0.1127). CONCLUSION While there are significant differences in certain operating room time periods between spinal and general anesthesia, these differences are effectively canceled out when considering total operating room time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to investigate which anesthetic technique is superior on 30-day outcomes after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in United States veteran patients. To our knowledge, this is the first account from the Veterans Health Administration comparing the effects of different anesthesia modalities in patients undergoing TKA. METHODS The Veterans Affairs Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was utilized to analyze patients undergoing primary TKA during the period of 2008-2015. Subjects were divided into 2 cohorts based on the method of surgical anesthesia used: general anesthesia or neuraxial anesthesia. Propensity score matching was utilized to avoid possible selection bias between the 2 cohorts when assessing patient demographics and comorbidities. The 2 groups were analyzed for 30-day postoperative complications, using multivariable logistic regression techniques to evaluate independent associations between anesthetic method and postoperative outcomes. RESULTS All Veterans Affairs patients undergoing primary TKA under general anesthesia (n = 32,363) and neuraxial anesthesia (n = 14,395) within the study period were included in this study. Following propensity score matching, multivariable analysis revealed significantly lower risks of cardiovascular (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.74, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.6-0.88, P < .001), respiratory (AOR 0.75, 95% CI 0.57-0.97, P = .03), and renal complications (AOR 0.62, 95% CI 0.4-0.9, P = .01) in patients receiving neuraxial anesthesia compared to those receiving general anesthesia. Neuraxial anesthesia was also associated with reduced hospital stay and lower odds of prolonged hospitalization (AOR 0.85, 95% CI 0.8-0.9, P < .001). CONCLUSION Veteran patients undergoing TKA under neuraxial anesthesia had reduced postoperative complications and decreased hospitalization stay compared to patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Patients undergoing cement fixation for hip arthroplasty are at increased risk of developing bone cement implantation syndrome (BCIS). We sought to determine: what is the occurrence of BCIS in patients with cancer after hip arthroplasty? What are the risk factors in patients with cancer for the development of this syndrome? What is the outcome for patients with cancer having BCIS? METHODS We identified 374 patients with cancer who underwent cemented hip arthroplasty between 2010 and 2014. Patient characteristics, operative variables, and outcomes were collected. RESULTS BCIS occurred in 279 (75%) patients. A total of 353 (94%) patients had bone metastases and 179 (48%) patients had lung metastases at the time of surgery. Age greater than 60 (hazard ratio [HR] 2.09, P = .02) and the presence of lung metastases (HR 1.77, P = .019) were associated with increased risk of BCIS. Increased perioperative use of vasopressors (HR 1.72, P = .023) and increased hospital stay beyond 10 days (HR 2.67, P = .003) was associated with BCIS. CONCLUSIONS BCIS is a frequent clinical event in patients with cancer undergoing femoral cemented arthroplasty with increased risk for patients over age 60 and those with compromised lung function due to lung metastases and lung cancer. Patients who develop BCIS are more likely to require longer postoperative hospitalization. Careful preoperative assessment and intraoperative communication are crucial steps to reduce the consequences of BCIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence-based international expert consensus regarding anaesthetic practice in hip/knee arthroplasty surgery is needed for improved healthcare outcomes. METHODS The International Consensus on Anaesthesia-Related Outcomes after Surgery group (ICAROS) systematic review, including randomised controlled and observational studies comparing neuraxial to general anaesthesia regarding major complications, including mortality, cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, renal, genitourinary, thromboembolic, neurological, infectious, and bleeding complications. Medline, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library including Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, NHS Economic Evaluation Database, from 1946 to May 17, 2018 were queried. Meta-analysis and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach was utilised to assess evidence quality and to develop recommendations. RESULTS The analysis of 94 studies revealed that neuraxial anaesthesia was associated with lower odds or no difference in virtually all reported complications, except for urinary retention. Excerpt of complications for neuraxial vs general anaesthesia in hip/knee arthroplasty, respectively: mortality odds ratio (OR): 0.67, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.57-0.80/OR: 0.83, 95% CI: 0.60-1.15; pulmonary OR: 0.65, 95% CI: 0.52-0.80/OR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.58-0.81; acute renal failure OR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.59-0.81/OR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.65-0.82; deep venous thrombosis OR: 0.52, 95% CI: 0.42-0.65/OR: 0.77, 95% CI: 0.64-0.93; infections OR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.67-0.79/OR: 0.80, 95% CI: 0.76-0.85; and blood transfusion OR: 0.85, 95% CI: 0.82-0.89/OR: 0.84, 95% CI: 0.82-0.87. CONCLUSIONS Recommendation: primary neuraxial anaesthesia is preferred for knee arthroplasty, given several positive postoperative outcome benefits; evidence level: low, weak recommendation. RECOMMENDATION neuraxial anaesthesia is recommended for hip arthroplasty given associated outcome benefits; evidence level: moderate-low, strong recommendation. Based on current evidence, the consensus group recommends neuraxial over general anaesthesia for hip/knee arthroplasty. TRIAL REGISTRY NUMBER PROSPERO CRD42018099935.

[DOI: 10.1136/rapm-2019-100678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2019] [Revised: 06/11/2019] [Accepted: 06/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BackgroundArthroplasty is one of the most commonly performed procedures in the USA with projections of continuous growth. As this field undergoes continuous changes, the goal of this study was to provide an analysis of patient-related and healthcare system-related trends. This is important as it allows practitioners, administrators and policy makers to allocate needed resources appropriately.MethodsThe study included total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA) procedures from 2006 to 2016. Demographic information, comorbidities and complications were extracted and analyzed from the Premier Healthcare database.ResultsThe surgical volume increased annually over the observation period by an average of 5.54% for TKA and 7.02% for THA, respectively. The average age of the patient population and the types of anesthesia used remained relatively consistent over time. Comorbidity burden increased, especially for obesity (16.52% in 2006 and 29.77% in 2016 for TKA, 11.15% in 2006 and 20.92% in 2016 for THA), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (6.82% in 2006 and 17.03% in 2016 for TKA, 4.69% in 2006 and 12.72% in 2016 for THA) and renal insufficiency (2.81% in 2006 and 7.01% in 2016 for TKA, 2.78% in 2006 and 6.43% in 2016 for THA). Minor trends of increases were also observed in the prevalence of liver disease, depression and hypothyroidism. All postoperative complications were trending lower except for acute renal failure, where an increase was noted (4.39% in 2006 and 8.10% in 2016 for TKA, 4.99% in 2006 and 8.42% in 2016 for THA).DiscussionSignificant trends in the care of patients who undergo TKA and THA were identified. Individuals undergoing these procedures presented with a higher prevalence of comorbidities. Despite these trajectories, complications declined over time. These data can be used to inform future research and to allocate resources to address changes in populations cared for and complications encountered.

Abstract
Acute pain medicine services influence many different aspects of postoperative recovery and function. Here, we discuss the various stakeholders of an acute pain medicine service, review the direct and indirect impact on said stakeholders, review the shared and competing interests between acute pain medicine programs and various payer systems, and discuss how APM services can help service lines align with the interests of the recent CMS Innovations Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement Model.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
This propensity score–matched cohort study evaluates the effect of anesthetic technique on a 30-day mortality after total hip or knee arthroplasty.
Methods
All patients who had hip or knee arthroplasty between January 1, 2003, and December 31, 2014, were evaluated. The principal exposure was spinal versus general anesthesia. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. Secondary outcomes were (1) perioperative myocardial infarction; (2) a composite of major adverse cardiac events that includes cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, or newly diagnosed arrhythmia; (3) pulmonary embolism; (4) major blood loss; (5) hospital length of stay; and (6) operating room procedure time. A propensity score–matched-pair analysis was performed using a nonparsimonious logistic regression model of regional anesthetic use.
Results
We identified 10,868 patients, of whom 8,553 had spinal anesthesia and 2,315 had general anesthesia. Ninety-two percent (n = 2,135) of the patients who had general anesthesia were matched to similar patients who did not have general anesthesia. In the matched cohort, the 30-day mortality rate was 0.19% (n = 4) in the spinal anesthesia group and 0.8% (n = 17) in the general anesthesia group (risk ratio, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.21 to 0.83; P = 0.0045). Spinal anesthesia was also associated with a shorter hospital length of stay (5.7 vs. 6.6 days; P < 0.001).
Conclusions
The results of this observational, propensity score–matched cohort study suggest a strong association between spinal anesthesia and lower 30-day mortality, as well as a shorter hospital length of stay, after elective joint replacement surgery.
