Anxiety and depression are associated with heightened risk of incident deep vein thrombosis: Mediation through stress-related neural mechanisms. Am J Hematol 2024. [PMID: 38965839 DOI: 10.1002/ajh.27427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 06/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
Controversy exists as to whether anxiety and depression increase deep vein thrombosis (DVT) risk, and the mechanisms mediating potential links remain unknown. We aimed to evaluate the association between anxiety and depression and DVT risk and determine whether upregulated stress-related neural activity (SNA), which promotes chronic inflammation, contributes to this link. Our retrospective study included adults (N = 118 871) enrolled in Mass General Brigham Biobank. A subset (N = 1520) underwent clinical 18F-FDG-PET/CT imaging. SNA was measured as the ratio of amygdalar to cortical activity (AmygAC). High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and heart rate variability (HRV) were also obtained. Median age was 58 [interquartile range (IQR) 42-70] years with 57% female participants. DVT occurred in 1781 participants (1.5%) over median follow-up of 3.6 years [IQR 2.1-5.2]. Both anxiety and depression independently predicted incident DVT risk after robust adjustment (HR [95% CI]: 1.53 [1.38-1.71], p < .001; and 1.48 [1.33-1.65], p < .001, respectively). Additionally, both anxiety and depression associated with increased AmygAC (standardized beta [95% CI]: 0.16 [0.04-0.27], p = .007, and 0.17 [0.05-0.29], p = .006, respectively). Furthermore, AmygAC associated with incident DVT (HR [95% CI]: 1.30 [1.07-1.59], p = .009). Mediation analysis demonstrated that the link between anxiety/depression and DVT was mediated by: (1) higher AmygAC, (2) higher hs-CRP, and (3) lower HRV ( < .05 for each). Anxiety and depression confer an attributable risk of DVT similar to other traditional DVT risk factors. Mechanisms appear to involve increased SNA, autonomic system activity, and inflammation. Future studies are needed to determine whether treatment of anxiety and depression can reduce DVT risk.

Efficacy and safety of esketamine for perioperative depression in patients undergoing elective surgery: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Asian J Psychiatr 2024; 95:103997. [PMID: 38492442 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajp.2024.103997] [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: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 02/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is a prevalent mood disorder during the perioperative period, with both preoperative concurrent depression and new-onset postoperative depression impacting postoperative recovery. Recent studies have indicated that the dissociative anesthetic esketamine may alleviate perioperative depressive symptoms. OBJECTIVE This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of esketamine in treating perioperative depression. METHODS We selected randomized controlled trials comparing esketamine to placebo in terms of postoperative depressive symptoms. The primary outcome was postoperative depression scores, with secondary outcomes including the prevalence of postoperative depression, pain scores using the Visual Analogue Scale or Numeric Rating Scale, and incidences of adverse reactions such as nausea/vomiting, dizziness, dreams/nightmares, hallucinations. RESULTS We enrolled a total of 17 studies involving 2462 patients. The esketamine group demonstrated a significant reduction in postoperative depression scores within one week after surgery (SMD -0.47, 95% CI (-0.66, -0.27), P < 0.001) and over the long term (SMD -0.44, 95% CI (-0.79, -0.09), P = 0.01). Furthermore, esketamine significantly decreased the prevalence of postoperative depression both within one week (RR 0.46, 95% CI (0.33, 0.63), P < 0.001) and over the long term (RR 0.50, 95% CI (0.36, 0.70), P < 0.001). Additionally, esketamine effectively relieved pain on the first postoperative day compared to control. However, it also increased the risks of dizziness and hallucinations for a short time. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests that the intraoperative or postoperative application of esketamine could be a potentially effective treatment for perioperative depression, although the increased risk of adverse reactions should be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor mental health is difficult to recognize and as a result, its association with recovery from total joint arthroplasty is difficult to assess. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between overall mental health scores and outcomes in the early postoperative period following unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS This is a retrospective review of prospectively collected data involving 142 patients who underwent primary unilateral THA. Independent variables included patient demographics and preoperative Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS), Global Physical Health (GPH) and Global Mental Health (GMH) and Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement (HOOS JR) scores as well as diagnoses of depression or anxiety. Dependent variables included length of stay (LOS), disposition at discharge, narcotic consumption until discharge, 6-week postoperative GPH, GMH and HOOS JR scores and magnitude of change compared to preoperative scores. Preoperative GMH and postoperative outcomes were compared using Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-tests, Pearson's Chi-Square test, and univariate logistic regression. RESULTS Patients with preoperative GMH scores below the 25% quartile were less likely to be discharged home and resulted in lower GPH, GMH and HOOS JR scores at 6-week follow-up compared to patients with preoperative GMH scores in the top 25% quartile. However, patients with low preoperative GMH scores demonstrated a greater magnitude of improvement in both the GPH and GMH scores compared to patients in the top 25% quartile. There was no difference in opioid consumption or LOS between either groups. When comparing patients with and without depression/anxiety, no difference was seen in any of the outcomes measured. CONCLUSION Unilateral THA offers significant improvements in both physical and mental function to patients with hip osteoarthritis and poor mental health, though overall scores remain lower than in those with better mental health.

Abstract
Chronic pain and functional limitations caused by coxarthrosis are important factors in the onset of depression, as there are higher rates of depression in this group of patients than in the general population. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been shown to decrease pain and improve function in these patients, which may positively influence the patient's depressive symptoms. The objectives of the study are to evaluate the differences between patients with depression and patients without depression in the immediate postoperative period (pain and hospitalization time) and to evaluate functional outcomes one year after surgery. Therefore, we conducted a prospective cohort study in which all patients with indications for primary total hip arthroplasty during 2018 were included. Preoperatively, patients completed the PHQ-9 questionnaire, and were classified into patients with depression (if preoperative PHQ-9 > or = to 10) and patients without depression (pre PHQ-9 < to 10). During the hospital stay, postoperative pain was assessed by VAS, and the need for analgesic rescue with major opioids. One year after surgery, the PHQ-9 test was retaken, and functional outcomes were assessed. The results showed that both groups were comparable in terms of sex, age, BMI, and ASA. No differences were found in postoperative pain or hospitalization time. There were also no differences between the two groups of patients in functional outcomes one year after surgery. Therefore, we can conclude that patients with a diagnosis of depression do not present worse postoperative pain after THA. In addition, they show a significant improvement in their depressive symptoms one year after surgery.

Abstract
Background Complications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) that necessitate revision cause considerable psychological distress and symptoms of depression, which are linked to poorer postoperative outcomes, increased complications, and increased healthcare utilization. We aimed to identify the prevalence of mental health disorders and symptoms preoperatively and postoperatively in patients undergoing aseptic revision TKA and to stratify these patients based on their mechanism of failure. Methods All patients undergoing aseptic revision TKA from 2008 to 2019 with a minimum 1-year follow-up were retrospectively reviewed at a single institution. Patients (n = 394) were grouped based on 7 failure modes previously described. Patients were considered to have depressive symptoms if their Veterans RAND-12 mental component score was below 42. Preoperative and postoperative Veterans RAND-12 mental component scores at the latest follow-up were evaluated. Results Overall comparative prevalence of preoperative to postoperative depressive symptoms was 23.4%-18.8%. By mode of failure are as follows: arthrofibrosis (25.8%-16.7%), aseptic loosening (25.3%-18.9%), extensor mechanism disruption (25%-50%), failed unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (8.6%-14.3%), instability (25.7%-17.1%), osteolysis or polyethylene wear (23.1%-23.1%), and patellar failure (11.8%-23.5%). There was no difference in depressive symptoms among failure modes preoperatively (P = .376) or at the latest postoperative follow-up (P = .175). Conclusions The prevalence of depressive symptoms in revision TKA patients appears to be independent of failure mode. Surgeon awareness and screening for depressive symptoms in this patient population preoperatively with referral for potential treatment may improve early postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to assess whether PTSD was associated with preoperative and/or postoperative joint-specific function and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and whether there were associated preoperative factors. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted at a single centre using an established arthroplasty database over a 2-year period. Patients undergoing THA and TKA completed pre and 1-year postoperative Oxford hip/knee scores and EuroQoL questionnaire (EQ-5D) to assess joint specific function and HRQoL. Postoperatively, patients completed the self-reported PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) questionnaire where a score of 31 or greater was used to determine a provisional diagnosis of PTSD. RESULTS There were 1244 THA and 1356 TKA patients, of which 42 (3.4%) and 54 (4.0%) had a PCL-5 score of ≥ 31, respectively (PTSD groups). Younger age was associated (p < 0.001) with PTSD for both THA (mean difference (MD) 9.9, 95%CI 6.7-13.0) and TKA (MD 4.6, 95%CI 2.2-6.9), which remained significant when adjusting for confounding variables (THA: p < 0.001; TKA: p = 0.020). The preoperative Oxford (THA:MD 4.9, p < 0.001; TKA:MD 5.7, p < 0.001) and EQ-5D scores (THA:MD 0.378, p < 0.001; TKA:MD 0.276, p < 0.001) were significantly worse in the PTSD groups. Age (AUC 73.8%, p < 0.001) and EQ-5D (AUC 72.9%, p < 0.001) were independent factors that were predictive of PTSD in patients undergoing THA and TKA, respectively. When adjusting for confounding variables, PTSD was clinically and statistically significantly (p < 0.001) associated with a lower improvement in the Oxford (THA:MD 9.3; TKA:MD 10.0) and EQ-5D (THA:MD 0.375; TKA:MD 0.293) scores. CONCLUSIONS One in 25 patients met a provisional PTSD diagnosis; they were younger and had worse preoperative and improvement in postoperative joint specific function and HRQoL. Age and EQ-5D could be used to identify patients at risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A pre-existing mood and anxiety disorder (MAD) is often present in patients with rotator cuff pathology, but its presumed negative effect on the outcomes has not been demonstrated. AIM OF STUDY AND HYPOTHESIS The primary objective of this study was to evaluate how a history of MAD affects the clinical outcomes 1 year after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR). The secondary objectives were to evaluate how a history of MAD affects tendon healing, analgesic consumption and the occurrence of complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study population consisted of 219 patients (mean age 54.5±6.6 years) who underwent arthroscopic repair for a distal supraspinatus tendon tear, with 17% (38/219) presenting an history of MAD (depression, unspecified mood disorder, anxiety, and bipolar disorder). Using univariate and multivariate analyses, the joint range of motion, Constant score, analgesic consumption, occurrence of complications during the first postoperative year and tendon healing at 1 year (MRI or CT arthrography) were compared between the two groups (with or without MAD). RESULTS The Constant score was lower preoperatively in patients with history of MAD (-4 points, p=.04) but there were no significant differences between the two groups at the various postoperative follow-up time points (p>.05). No significant difference was found between the two groups of patients in their analgesic consumption at the various postoperative time points (p>.05), tendon healing at 1 year (p=.17) or the occurrence of postoperative complications (p=.59). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION Pre-existing MAD had no effect on the clinical outcomes after arthroscopic RCR at 1 year and no effect on tendon healing, analgesic consumption or the occurrence of complications in our study population. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; retrospective case-control study.

Abstract
The intervals before and after major surgery is a high-risk period for older adults; in this setting, anxiety and depression are common and serious problems. We comprehensively reviewed current evidence on perioperative anxiety and depression in older adults, focusing on epidemiology, impact, correlates, medication risks, and treatment. Principles of perioperative mental healthcare are proposed based on the findings. Prevalence estimates of clinically significant anxiety and depression range from 5% to 45% for anxiety and 6% to 52% for depression, depending on surgical populations and measurement tools. Anxiety and depression may increase risk for surgical complications and reduce patient participation during rehabilitation. Medical comorbidities, pain, insomnia, cognitive impairment, and delirium are common co-occurring problems. Concomitant uses of central nervous system acting medications (benzodiazepines, anticholinergics, and opioids) amplify the risks of delirium and falls. Based on these findings, we propose that anxiety and depression care should be part of perioperative management in older adults; components include education, psychological support, opioid-sparing pain management, sleep management, deprescribing central nervous system active medications, and continuation and optimization of existing antidepressants. More research is needed to test and improve these care strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can cause negative emotions, such as anxiety and depression, which can severely affect a patient's long-term quality of life. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the impact of multimodal analgesia (MMA) on postoperative anxiety and depression following total knee arthroplasty. METHODS This study included 161 patients who underwent TKA from October 2020 to October 2022 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College, including 79 cases in the control group and 82 cases in the multimodal analgesia group (MMA). The MMA group were administered acetaminophen 0.5 g/d orally 3 days before the surgery, and an ultrasound-guided fascia iliac compartment block (FICB) with 0.25% ropivacaine 30 ml in the inguinal region ipsilateral to the surgery was performed 1 h before surgery. After the surgery, 100 ml solution includes 100 mg ropivacaine, 2.5 mg morphine, and 0.25 mg epinephrine for intra-articular and periarticular injection. Postoperative conventional intravenous analgesia was used in the control group, including 100 mg ropivacaine, 2.5 mg morphine, and 0.25 mg epinephrine for intra-articular and periarticular injection. Patients were scored for pain, anxiety, and depression in the ward at 3 and 7 days postoperatively, and postoperative patients were scored using telephone callbacks at 3 months postoperatively. RESULTS It was found that the visual analog scale (VAS) scores for pain at rest at 3 days, 7 days, and 3 months postoperatively were significantly lower in the MMA group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The scores for pain with movement were significantly lower in the MMA group than in the control group at 3 days and 7 days postoperatively (P < 0.01), but they were similar at 3 months postoperatively. Compared to the control group, the MMA group had significantly higher American Knee Society scores (AKS) at 3 days, 7 days, and 3 months postoperatively (P < 0.05). Compared to the control group, the MMA group had significantly higher Lower Extremity Functional Scale and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores (HADS) (P < 0.05) at 3 days and 7 days postoperatively; compared to the control group, the MMA group had a significantly shorter hospital stay (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Multimodal analgesia can alleviate postoperative anxiety and depression in the short term, reduce perioperative pain, improve postoperative recovery, and shorten the length of hospital stay.

A Systematic Review Evaluating Outcomes, Healthcare Use, and Patient-reported Outcome Measures. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2023; 481:947-964. [PMID: 36730492 PMCID: PMC10097587 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000002481] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies evaluating the effects of a psychiatric illness on orthopaedic surgical outcomes have yielded mixed results. Because awareness of patient comorbid mental health disorders has become increasingly important to tailor treatment plans, the aim of our systematic review was to present the findings of all studies reporting on the association between clinically diagnosed psychiatric illnesses and total joint arthroplasty (TJA) outcomes and evaluate the quality of evidence to provide a comprehensive summary. QUESTION/PURPOSE Is there a consistently reported association between comorbid psychiatric illness and (1) complication risk, (2) readmission rates, (3) healthcare use and discharge disposition, and (4) patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after TJA? METHODS The PubMed, EBSCO host, Medline, and Google Scholar electronic databases were searched on April 9, 2022, to identify all studies that evaluated outcomes after TJA in patients with a comorbid clinically diagnosed mental health disorder between January 1, 2000, and April 1, 2022. Studies were included if the full-text article was available in English, reported on primary TJA outcomes in patients with clinically diagnosed mental health disorders, included patients undergoing TJA without a psychiatric illness for comparison, and had a minimum follow-up time of 30 days for evaluating readmission rates, 90 days for other perioperative outcomes such as length of stay and complications, and 1-year minimum follow-up if assessing PROMs. Studies that used a mental health screening examination instead of clinical diagnoses were excluded to isolate for verified psychiatric illnesses. Additionally, systematic reviews, case reports, duplicate studies between the databases, and gray literature were excluded. Twenty-one studies were included in our final analysis comprising 31,023,713 patients with a mean age range of 57 to 69 years. Mental health diagnoses included depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, major personality disorder, and psychosis as well as concomitant mental disorders. Two reviewers independently evaluated the quality of included studies using the Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies (MINORS) tool. The mean MINORS score was 19.5 ± 0.91 of 24, with higher scores representing better study quality. All the articles included were retrospective, comparative studies. Given the heterogeneity of the included studies, a meta-analysis was not performed, and results are instead presented descriptively. RESULTS Patients with schizophrenia were consistently reported to have higher odds of medical and surgical complications than patients without psychiatric illness, particularly anemia and respiratory complications. Among studies with the largest sample sizes, patients with depression alone or depression and anxiety had slightly higher odds of complications. Most studies identified higher odds of readmission among patients with depression, schizophrenia, and severe mental illness after TJA. However, for anxiety, there was no difference in readmission rates compared with patients without psychiatric illness. Slightly higher odds of emergency department visits were reported for patients with depression, anxiety, concomitant depression and anxiety, and severe mental illness across studies. When evaluating healthcare use, articles with the largest sample sizes reporting on depression and length of stay or discharge disposition found modestly longer length of stay and greater odds of nonhome discharge among patients with depression. Although several studies reported anxiety was associated with slightly increased total costs of hospitalization, the most robust studies reported no difference or slightly shorter average length of stay. However, the included studies only reported partial economic analyses of cost, leading to relatively superficial evidence. Patients with schizophrenia had a slightly longer length of stay and modestly lower odds of home discharge and cost. Likewise, patients with concomitant depression and anxiety had a slightly longer average length of stay, according to the two articles reporting on more than 1000 patients. Lastly, PROM scores were worse in patients with depression at a minimum follow-up of 1 year after TJA. For anxiety, there was no difference in improvement compared with patients without mental illness. CONCLUSION Our systematic review found that individuals with psychiatric illness had an increased risk of postoperative complications, increased length of stay, higher costs, less frequent home discharge, and worse PROM scores after TJA. These findings encourage inclusion of comorbid psychiatric illness when risk-stratifying patients. Attention should focus on perioperative interventions to minimize the risk of thromboembolic events, anemia, bleeding, and respiratory complications as well as adequate pain management with drugs that do not exacerbate the likelihood of these adverse events to minimize emergency department visits and readmissions. Future studies are needed to compare patients with concomitant psychiatric illnesses such as depression and anxiety with patients with either diagnosis in isolation, instead of only comparing patients with concomitant diagnoses with patients without any psychiatric illnesses. Similarly, the results of targeted interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy are needed to understand how orthopaedic surgeons might improve the quality of care for patients with a comorbid psychiatric illness.

Relationships Between Preoperative Mental Health and Improvements in Patient-Reported Outcomes After Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty. J Arthroplasty 2023; 38:655-661.e3. [PMID: 36328106 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.10.043] [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: 07/10/2022] [Revised: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor preoperative mental health has been associated with worse outcomes after total hip (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). To fully understand these relationships, we assessed post-THA and post-TKA improvements in patient-reported mental and joint health by preoperative mental health groups. METHODS Elective cases (367 THA, 462 TKA) were subgrouped by low (<25th percentile), middle (25th-74th), and high (≥75th) preoperative mental health, using Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey Mental Component Summary (MCS) scores. In each subgroup, we assessed the relationship between preoperative MCS and 1-year postoperative change in mental and joint health. Pairwise comparisons and multivariable regression models were applied for THA and TKA separately. RESULTS Median postoperative mental health change was +14.0 points for the low-MCS THA group, +11.1 low-TKA, +2.0 middle-THA and TKA, -4.0 high-THA, and -4.9 high-TKA (between-group differences P < .001). All MCS groups had improved median joint health scores, without significant between-group differences. Preoperative mental health was negatively associated with mental health improvements in all groups (B = -0.94 - -0.68, P < .001-P = .01) but with improvements in joint health only in the low-THA group (B = -0.74, P = .02). Improvements in mental and joint health were positively associated for low and middle (B = 0.61-0.87, P < .001), but not for high-MCS groups, with this relationship differing for the low versus high group. CONCLUSION Patients who have low preoperative mental health experienced greater postoperative mental health improvement and similar joint health improvement compared to patients who have high preoperative mental health. Findings can guide subgroup-targeted surgical decision-making and preoperative counseling.

Abstract
Background: Limited literature examines the relationship between surgical outcomes in
chronic foot and ankle conditions and concurrent psychiatric care. The
present study aimed to investigate patient-reported and surgical outcomes of
patients treated for a psychiatric disorder undergoing first
metatarsophalangeal (MTP) fusion for hallux rigidus. We hypothesized that
patients on psychotropic medications would have greater subjective pain
preoperatively and less improvement in physical and mental functionality
postoperatively when compared with nonmedicated patients. Methods: A single-center, retrospective review of prospectively collected data was
conducted on 92 patients undergoing first MTP fusion with a preoperative
diagnosis of hallux rigidus from 2015 to 2019. At their preoperative,
6-month postoperative, and 1-year postoperative visits, patients were
administered visual analog pain scale (VAS) and 36-Item Short Form Health
Survey (SF-36) functionality surveys. Patients were subsequently identified
by chronic use of psychotropic medication preoperatively and grouped for
analysis (MED, n = 42; NO MED, n = 50). Results: Postoperative mean VAS pain scores were lower for all studied patients at 6
months (VAS = 1.6 ± 2.3) and 1 year postoperatively (VAS = 1.1± 1.8)
relative to the preoperative visit (VAS = 4.7 ± 2.8)
(P ≤ .0001 and P ≤ .0001, respectively).
No differences in mean VAS pain scores nor SF-36 physical component summary
scores were detected at preoperative, 6-month, or 1-year visits between NO
MED and MED groups. Mean SF-36 mental component summary scores for those in
the MED group were lower at preoperative (NO MED = 83.8, MED = 71.8,
P = .006) and 6-month postoperative (NO MED = 86.1,
MED = 72.7, P = .037) visits than those in the NO MED
group, a trend not observed at the 1-year postoperative mark (NO MED = 84.1,
MED = 76.8, P = .228). There were no observed differences
in operative time (P = .219), tourniquet time
(P = .359), nor time to full weightbearing
(P = .512) between MED and NO MED groups. Additionally,
no differences in postoperative complication rates were observed between
groups. Conclusion: In patients treated with psychotropically active medications with hallux
rigidus, MTP Fusion appears to be a reasonable treatment choice with similar
outcomes for patients requiring psychotropically active medications to the
outcomes of those patients not requiring psychotropically active
medications. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Length of stay (LOS) and readmissions are quality metrics linked to physician payments and substantially impact the cost of care. This study aims to evaluate the effect of documented and undocumented psychiatric conditions on LOS, discharge location, and readmission following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS Retrospective review of all primary, unilateral TKA from 2015 to 2020 at a high-volume, academic orthopedic hospital was conducted. Patients were separated into three cohorts: patients with a documented psychiatric diagnosis (+Dx), patients without a documented psychiatric diagnosis but with an actively prescribed psychiatric medication (-Dx), and patients without a psychiatric diagnosis or medication (control). Patient demographics, LOS, discharge location, and 90 days readmissions were assessed. RESULTS A total of 2935 patients were included; 1051 patients had no recorded psychiatric medications (control); 1884 patients took at least one psychiatric medication, of which 1161 (61.6%) were in the-Dx and 723 (38.4%) were in the +Dx cohort. Operative time (+Dx, 103.4 ± 29.1 and -Dx, 103.1 ± 28.5 vs. 93.6 ± 26.2 min, p < 0.001 for both comparisons) and hospital LOS stay (+ Dx, 3.00 ± 1.70 and -Dx, 3.01 ± 1.83 vs. 2.82 ± 1.40 days, p = 0.021 and p = 0.006, respectively) were greater for patients taking psychiatric medications when compared to the control group. Patients taking psychiatric medication with or without associated diagnosis were significantly more likely to be discharged to a secondary facility-22.8% and 20.9%, respectively-compared to controls, at 12.5% (p < 0.001). Ninety-day readmission rates did not differ between the control and both psychiatric groups (p = 0.693 and p = 0.432, respectively). CONCLUSION TKA patients taking psychiatric medications with or without a documented psychiatric diagnosis have increased hospital LOS and higher chances of discharge to a secondary facility. Most patients taking psychiatric medication also had no associated diagnosis. Payment models should consider the presence of undocumented psychiatric diagnoses when constructing metrics. Surgeons and institutions should also direct their attention to identifying, recording, and managing these patients to improve outcomes. LEVEL III EVIDENCE Retrospective Cohort Study.

Abstract
Mental illness affects 20.6% of American adults. The lifetime prevalence of depression and anxiety is 17% and 29%, respectively. In particular, women suffer more from mental illness than men. Racial and ethnic minorities experience disproportionate discrimination, which has been linked to depression, anxiety, and psychological distress. African Americans are more likely to be chronically depressed, have higher levels of impairment and more severe symptoms, and often have challenges accessing treatment. Poor mental health is associated with low socioeconomic status, prolonged hospital stays, psychosis, postoperative anemia, infection, and pulmonary embolism. For total hip and knee arthroplasty, mental health conditions have been linked to higher hospital charges, higher rates of nonroutine discharges, and an increased Charlson Comorbidity Index. Mechanisms to address mental health are varied and range from psychosocial to pharmacologic modalities. Optimization in these vulnerable patients includes appropriate preoperative screening, assessment of support systems, identifying resources, and providing a safe discharge plan.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is increasing in incidence. While preoperative depression is known to affect outcomes following other procedures, its effect on outcomes following TAA are unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate this relationship. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study using the Nationwide Readmission Database (NRD). All patients undergoing TAA were included. Two cohorts (those with and without preoperative depression) were created. Logistic regression was then performed to assess the contribution of a preoperative diagnosis of depression on rates of 90-day complications, while controlling for patient demographic and comorbid data. RESULTS Overall, 8047 patients were included, of whom, 11.4% (918) were depressed. Compared to patients without depression, patients with depression had increased odds of the following: nonhome discharge (OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.31-1.98), extended length of stay (>2 days; OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.15-1.57), prosthetic complication (OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.10-1.74), wound complication (OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.11-2.29), prosthetic joint infection (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.06-3.15), superficial surgical site infection (OR 1.62, 95% CI 1.02-2.58), and medical complication (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.03-1.68). DISCUSSION Depression in patients undergoing TAA is common and is associated with increased health care utilization and complications following surgery. The modifiability of depression should be investigated with future studies. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE Prognostic, Level III: Comparative study.

Abstract
Complications following lesser toe surgery are challenging to manage. The keys to treatment of any of these conditions are, first, to try to avoid them through identification of patient- and surgeon-related variables that contribute to their development and, second, following the occurance of a complication, to understand what can and cannot be corrected with surgical and nonsurgical management. This review provides a comprehensive assessment of current literature, demonstrates best practices and approaches to lesser toe complications, and provides an illustration of clinical examples.

Abstract
Background Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication after total joint arthroplasty. Patients undergoing revision for PJI may experience psychological distress and symptoms of depression, both of which are linked to poor postoperative outcomes. We, therefore, aim to identify the prevalence of depression and depressive symptoms in patients before treatment for PJI and their link to functional outcomes. Methods Patients undergoing either debridement with implant retention (DAIR) or 2-stage exchange for PJI with minimum 1-year follow-up were retrospectively reviewed. The 2-stage (n = 37) and single-stage (n = 39) patients that met inclusion criteria were matched based off age (±5 years), gender, and body mass index (±5) to patients undergoing aseptic revisions. Outcomes evaluated included a preoperative diagnosis of clinical depression and preoperative and postoperative Veterans RAND 12 Item Health Survey mental component score and physical component score. Results Compared to matched controls, the prevalence of depressive symptoms was significantly greater in patients undergoing 2-stage exchange preoperatively (40.5% vs 10.8%, P < .01) but not postoperatively (21.6% vs 10.8%, P = .20). Patients undergoing DAIR with either preoperative depressive symptoms (31.3 vs 40.9, P = .05) or a preoperative diagnosis of depression (27.7 vs 43.1, P < .01) had significantly lower physical component scores postoperatively. Conclusions Patients undergoing 2-stage exchange for PJI have a four times higher prevalence of preoperative depressive symptoms than patients undergoing aseptic revision. Patients undergoing DAIR with depression or preoperative depressive symptoms have lower functional scores postoperatively. Orthopedic surgeon screening of PJI patients with referral for treatment of depression may help improve outcomes postoperatively.

We describe patterns in incidence and risk factors for perioperative death after revision THA. METHODS Using the National Hospital Discharge Survey, we identified nearly 700,000 cases of revision THA from 1990 through 2010. Procedure incidence, perioperative mortality rates, comorbidities, discharge disposition, and duration of hospital stay were analysed. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors for perioperative death. Alpha = 0.01. RESULTS Population-adjusted incidence of revision THA per 100,000 people increased from 9.2 cases in 1990 to 15 cases in 2010 (p < 0.001). The rate of perioperative death was 0.9% during the study period and decreased from 1.5% during the "first" period (1990-1999) to 0.5% during the "second" period (2000-2010) (p < 0.001), despite an increase in comorbidity burden over time. Factors associated with the greatest odds of perioperative death were acute myocardial infarction (odds ratio [OR], 37; 95% confidence interval [CI], 33-40; p < 0.001), pneumonia (OR, 16; 95% CI, 15-18; p < 0.001), and pulmonary embolism (OR, 13; 95% CI, 11-15; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The rate of perioperative death in patients undergoing revision THA in the US decreased from 1990 to 2010 despite an increase in comorbidities. Acute myocardial infarction, pneumonia, and pulmonary embolism were associated with the highest odds of perioperative death after revision THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serious mental health conditions (eg, anxiety and depression) are common in surgical patients, yet likely underassessed due to the time-consuming and cumbersome traditional screening process. A recently developed computerized adaptive mental health assessment tool (computerized adaptive test-mental health [CAT-MH]) allows rapid, precise, and accurate assessment of numerous mental health disorders, including anxiety and depression, without the need for a trained interviewer. The goal of this investigation was to determine the feasibility of administering CAT-MH for anxiety and depression in the preoperative setting and to obtain preliminary evidence of the prevalence of anxiety and depression in preoperative patients. METHODS In this prospective cohort study, 100 adult patients scheduled for elective surgery were enrolled and asked to complete the CAT-MH in the preoperative clinic. Urgent and emergency surgeries were excluded as were pregnant patients. Primary feasibility outcomes were completion rate and time to completion. Secondary outcomes were prevalence estimates of anxiety and depression. RESULTS All 100 enrolled patients completed the study. All patients were able to complete the mental health assessment (mean time: 3.6 ± 1.8 minutes standard deviation). Sixteen patients (16%) screened positive for anxiety (severity: mild, n = 7 [7%]; moderate, n = 7 [7%]); severe, n = 2 [2%]); 12 of 16 (75%) did not have a previous diagnosis of anxiety disorder. Twenty-eight (28%) patients screened positive for depression (severity: mild, n = 26 [26%]; moderate and severe, n = 1 each [1%]); 23 of 28 (82%) had no previous diagnosis of depressive disorder. Nineteen patients (19%) met the screening criteria for major depressive disorder; 14 of 19 (74%) of which had no previous diagnosis of major depressive disorder. CONCLUSIONS The results of this pilot study support the feasibility of using CAT-MH in a preoperative evaluation and indicate that there is a substantial prevalence of undiagnosed anxiety and depression in surgical patients.

Anxiety and Depression Impact on Inhospital Complications and Outcomes After Total Knee and Hip Arthroplasty: A Propensity Score-Weighted Retrospective Analysis. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2021; 29:873-884.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of anxiety and depression on immediate inhospital outcomes and complications after total joint arthroplasty of the hip (total hip arthroplasty [THA]) and knee (total knee arthroplasty [TKA]) using a large national registry. METHODS Data from the National Inpatient Sample was used to identify all patients undergoing TKA and THA between 2006 and 2015. Patients were divided in four groups based on a concomitant diagnosis of depression, anxiety, depression plus anxiety, and neither depression nor anxiety (control group). Propensity score analysis was performed to determine whether these psychiatric comorbidities were risk factors for inhospital economic, disposition, and complication outcomes. RESULTS A total of 5,901,057 TKAs and 2,838,742 THAs were performed in our study period. The relative percentage of patients with anxiety and depression undergoing these procedures markedly increased over time. All three psychiatric comorbidity groups were markedly associated with an increased risk of postoperative anemia and were markedly associated with other inhospital complications compared with the control group. Notable associations were also found between the study groups and total charges, length of stay, and disposition. DISCUSSION Anxiety and depression are major risk factors for inhospital complications and are markedly associated with economic and disposition outcomes after TKA and THA. The relative proportion of patients with anxiety and depression undergoing these procedures is rapidly increasing. It is critical for clinicians to remain aware of these risk factors, and attention should be directed on the development of standardized perioperative optimization protocols and medication management for these patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is generally considered to be one of the most successful orthopedic surgical procedures. However, no research has been conducted on the postoperative mental health of patients who underwent different approaches of THA. This paper seeks to compare the differences among three THA approaches: the normal lateral approach (NLA), the direct anterior approach (DAA) and the orthopädische chirurgie münchen (OCM) regarding their influence on patients' postoperative anxiety and depression. METHOD A total of 95 THA patients were recruited for this study. All patients' preoperative information including results of Harris, SF-36 and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was carefully evaluated. Surgery-related data as well as five-day postoperative data were also collected. Three months after the surgery, a telephone follow-up was conducted to further evaluate patients' HADS and SF-36 results. RESULT In the three-month postoperative evaluation of anxiety and depression, the NLA group scored significantly higher than both the DAA group and the OCM group, which was found relevant to the patient's incision length and five-day postoperative VAS results. A correlation between anxiety scores and the days of postoperative hospitalization was also noticed. Further analysis of patients' psychological state based on the SF-36 results revealed considerable differences in viability (VT) and social function (SF) between the NLA group and the OCM group. Other surgery-related data and postoperative data all demonstrated better results of the DAA group and the OCM group compared to the NLA group. CONCLUSION Among the three different surgical approaches of THA, DAA and OCM compared with NLA are found to ease patients' postoperative anxiety and depression. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
PURPOSE While elective primary total hip (THA) and knee (TKA) arthroplasty are effective procedures for addressing the symptoms associated with advanced osteoarthritis, there is evidence to suggest that patient anxiety and depression are linked to poorer outcomes following surgery. METHODS A secondary analysis of prospectively-collected data of people undergoing primary elective THA or TKA for osteoarthritis across 19 hospitals was performed. We assessed outcomes at 1 year post-surgery for people with and without medically treated anxiety and/or depression at the time of surgery (A/D and no-A/D). We used unadjusted and adjusted analyses to compare improvement in Oxford Hip or Knee Scores, the incidences of major post-operative complications, satisfaction and index joint improvement by A/D status. RESULTS 15.2% (254/1669) of patients were identified with anxiety and/or depression at time of surgery. In the unadjusted analysis, the A/D group had greater mean Oxford score improvement by 2.1 points (95% CI 0.8 to 3.4, p = 0.001), increased major complications (OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.05 to 1.85, p = 0.02), were less likely to report a "much better" global improvement for index joint (OR 0.56, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.83, p = 0.003), and there was no statistically significant difference in the rate of satisfaction with the results of surgery (OR 0.64, 95% CI 0.37 to 1.10, p = 0.10). The adjusted analysis found no significant associations between A/D vs. no-A/D and any of the reported outcomes. CONCLUSION After adjustment for confounding variables, people with anxiety and/or depression pre-operatively, compared to those without, have similar outcomes following hip or knee arthroplasty.

Abstract
To examine the association of preoperative opioids and/or benzodiazepines on postoperative outcomes in total knee and hip arthroplasty, we retrospectively compared postoperative outcomes in those prescribed preoperative opioids and/or benzodiazepines versus those who were not who underwent elective total knee and hip arthroplasty at a single urban academic institution. Multivariable logistic regression was performed for readmission rate, respiratory failure, infection, and adverse cardiac events. Multivariable zero-truncated negative binomial regression was used for length of stay. After exclusions, there were 4307 adult patients in the study population, 2009 of whom underwent total knee arthroplasty and 2298 of whom underwent total hip arthroplasty. After adjusting for potential confounders, preoperative benzodiazepine use was associated with increased odds of readmission (p < 0.01). Preoperative benzodiazepines were not associated with increased odds of respiratory failure nor increased length of stay. Preoperative opioids were not associated with increased odds of the examined outcomes. There were insufficient numbers of infection and cardiac events for analysis. In this study population, preoperative benzodiazepines were associated with increased odds of readmission. Preoperative opioids were not associated with increased odds of the examined outcomes. Studies are needed to further examine risks associated with preoperative benzodiazepine use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression has been implicated as a poor predictor of outcomes after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) of the lower extremity in some studies. We aimed to determine whether depression as a comorbidity affects the TJA outcomes and whether pain reduction associated with successful TJA alters depressive symptoms. METHODS A search of PUBMED was performed using keywords "depression", "arthroplasty", "depressive disorder", and "outcomes." All English studies published over the last ten years were considered for inclusion. Quantitative and qualitative analysis was then performed on the data. RESULTS Thirty articles met inclusion criteria (16 retrospective, 14 prospective). Three showed that depressed patients were at higher risk for readmission. Two reported that depressed patients had higher likelihood of non-home discharge after TJA compared to non-depressed patients. Four noted that depressed patients incur higher hospitalization costs than non-depressed patients. Ten suggest depression is a predictor of poor patient-reported outcome measures, pain, and satisfaction after TJA. Five suggested the gains depressed patients experience in functional outcome scores after TJA are similar to gains experienced by patients without depression. Another eight suggested that TJA improves not only function and pain but also depressive symptoms in patients with depression. CONCLUSION The results of this review show that depression increases the risk of persistent pain, dissatisfaction, and complications after TJA. Additionally, depressed patients may incur higher costs than non-depressed patients undergoing TJA and may have worse preoperative and postoperative patient reported outcome measures (PROMs). However, the gains in function that depressed patients experience after TJA are equivalent to gains experienced by non-depressed patients and depressed patients may experience improvement in their depressive symptoms after TJA. Patient selection for TJA is critical and counseling regarding increased risk for complications is crucial in depressed patients undergoing TJA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resilience and depression may impact clinical outcomes following primary total joint arthroplasty (TJA). This study aimed to quantify baseline resilience and depression prevalence in patients undergoing primary TJA and evaluate their influence on patient-reported clinical outcomes. METHODS We prospectively enrolled 98 patients undergoing primary TJA. Exclusion criteria included patients under 18 years of age, undergoing surgery for fracture, or who underwent additional surgery during the study period. Patients completed the Brief Resilience Scale to measure resilience, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 to measure depression, and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-10 to measure global physical and mental health preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS Preoperatively, 22% and 15% of patients demonstrated major and mild depression, respectively. High resilience was identified in 34% of patients, normal resilience in 55%, and low resilience in 11%. Preoperative depression correlated with lower resilience, global physical health, and global mental health scores preoperatively as well as at 1 year after surgery (P < .001). Higher levels of preoperative resilience correlated with higher global physical and mental health scores preoperatively and at 1 year postoperatively (P < .001). CONCLUSION Depression symptoms are common among patients undergoing primary TJA and are associated with worse patient-reported outcomes. Patients with higher levels of resilience have higher global physical and mental health scores before and after TJA. Psychological traits and depression impact clinical outcomes following TJA.

Self-reported allergies correlate with a worse patient-reported outcome after hip arthroscopy: a matched control study. J Hip Preserv Surg 2021; 7:670-676.

Abstract
Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients with and without at least one self-reported allergy undergoing hip arthroscopy were compared. Data on 1434 cases were retrospectively reviewed, and 267 patients were identified with at least one self-reported allergy and randomly matched to a control group on a 1:2 ratio. Four PROMs [Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Hip Outcome Score-Sports (HOS-Sport) and 33-item International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33)] were collected preoperatively, and at 5–11, 12–23 and 24–35 months postoperatively. Significant PROM differences were found 5–11 months postoperative on mHHS (P < 0.001), HOS-ADL (P = 0.002), HOS-Sport (P < 0.001) and iHOT-33 (P < 0.001). At 12–23 months postoperative, the allergy cohort had significantly worse scores on mHHS (P = 0.002), HOS-ADL (P = 0.001), HOS-Sport (P < 0.001) and iHOT-33 (P < 0.001). They also had significantly worse measures 24–35 months postoperative on mHHS (P = 0.019), HOS-Sport (P = 0.006) and iHOT-33 (P < 0.001). Multivariable logistic regression showed that each additional allergy reported significantly increased the risk of failing to meet the minimal clinically important difference 5–11 months after surgery on mHHS by 1.15 [OR (95% CI): 1.15 (1.03, 1.30), P = 0.014], on HOS-ADL by 1.16 [OR (95% CI): 1.16 (1.02, 1.31), P = 0.021] and on iHOT-33 by 1.20 [OR (95% CI): 1.20 (1.07, 1.36), P = 0.002]. Results suggest self-reported allergies increase the likelihood of a patient-perceived worse outcome after hip arthroscopy. An understanding of this association by the physician is essential during presurgical planning and in the management of postoperative care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is known to be a risk factor for complication following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), but little is known about new-onset depression (NOD) following THA. The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of NOD and identify risk factors for its occurrence after THA. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of the Truven MarketScan database. Patients undergoing primary THA were identified and separated into cohorts based on the presence or not of NOD. Patients with preoperative depression or a diagnosis of fracture were excluded. Patient demographic and comorbid data were queried, and postoperative complications were collected. Univariate and multivariate regression analysis was then performed to assess the association of NOD with patient-specific factors and postoperative complications. RESULTS In total, 111,838 patients undergoing THA were identified and 2517 (2.25%) patients had NOD in the first postoperative year. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that preoperative opioid use, female gender, higher Elixhauser comorbidity index, preoperative anxiety disorder, drug or alcohol use disorder, and preoperative smoking were associated with the occurrence of NOD (P ≤ .001). The following postoperative complications were associated with increased odds of NOD: prosthetic joint infection (odds ratio [OR] 1.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.42-2.34, P < .001), aseptic revision surgery (OR 1.47, 95% CI 1.06-2.04, P = .019), periprosthetic fracture (OR 1.72, 95% CI 1.13-2.61, P = .01), and non-home discharge (OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.42-1.77, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS NOD is common following THA and there are multiple patient-specific factors and postoperative complications which increase the odds of its occurrence. Providers should use this information to identify at-risk patients so that pre-emptive prevention strategies may be employed.

[PMID: 33470047 PMCID: PMC7957433 DOI: 10.1111/os.12901] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2020] [Revised: 11/17/2020] [Accepted: 11/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To analyze perioperative complications, resource consumption, and inpatient mortality of patients who receive total joint arthroplasty (TJA) with a concomitant diagnosis of a primary hypercoagulable state (PHS). The following questions were posed in the present paper. First, do patients undergoing TJA with PHS have increased risk of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and periprosthetic joint infection (PJI)? Second, what other in‐hospital complications are more likely among PHS patients undergoing TJA? Third, do TJA patients with PHS usually consume greater in‐hospital resources? Fourth, do PHS patients suffer higher mortality rates compared to non‐PHS patients? Finally, have PHS patients received proper anticoagulant management in past arthroplasties? Methods The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database for the years between 2003 and 2014 was searched to identify patients undergoing primary TJA. Patients with PHS were identified with the ICD‐9‐CM code 289.81. The χ2‐test, the Pearson test, and adjusted multivariate regression analysis were performed to evaluate the difference and odds ratios between the positive and negative diagnosis groups. Results From 2003 to 2014, a total of 2,044,356 patients were identified in the NIS as undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the United States. A total of 4664 patients (0.2%) were identified as having PHS. Compared with the non‐PHS group, TJA patients with PHS had a higher risk of DVT (THA: odds ratio [OR] = 8.343, 95% CI: 5.362–12.982, P < 0.001; TKA: OR = 4.712, 95% CI: 3.560–6.238, P < 0.001) but did not have increased risk of PE (THA: OR = 1.306, 95% CI: 0.48–3.555, P = 0.602; TKA: OR = 1.143, 95% CI: 0.687–1.903), and only PHS patients in the THA group had higher risks of inpatient mortality (OR = 3.184, 95% CI: 1.348–7.522, P = 0.008) and periprosthetic joint infection (OR = 3.343, 95% CI: 1.084–10.879, P = 0.036). In addition, PHS patients had extended length of stay, higher total costs, and increased risks of certain other complications, such as peripheral vascular disease, hemorrhage, and thrombophlebitis. Conclusion In the present study, PHS patients had higher risks of DVT, greater in‐hospital resource consumption, and certain other perioperative complications. However, PHS was not associated with increased risk of PE in TJA patients in the United States between 2003 and 2014. While potential hazards of PHS have already been recognized, the present study revealed additional concerns and demonstrated that further improvements in the perioperative management of patients with hereditary hypercoagulable disorders are essential.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2021; 30:89-96. [PMID: 33317706 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2020.04.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2020] [Revised: 03/29/2020] [Accepted: 04/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) continues to increase. Although researchers expect preoperative depression to influence outcomes following primary hip and knee arthroplasty, there is a paucity of data on this relationship after primary TSA. The purpose of this study was to define the relationship between a preoperative diagnosis of depression and postoperative outcomes following TSA. METHODS This was a level III retrospective cohort study. We identified patients undergoing TSA between 2009 and 2017 from the Truven MarketScan database and created 2 cohorts, patients with and without depression. We included patients who were continuously enrolled in the database for 1 year preoperatively and postoperatively. We collected demographic data, complication data, and health care utilization factors and then performed statistical analysis comparing complication and health care utilization between cohorts. This analysis controlled for baseline patient demographic, comorbid, and surgical factors. RESULTS We included 22,623 patients undergoing TSA in this study. Of these, 3209 (14%) had a preoperative diagnosis of depression. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the following were more common in patients with depression: sepsis (odds ratio [OR], 2.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.14-3.65; P = .022), revision within 1 year (OR, 1.92; 95% CI, 1.45-2.55; P < .001), prosthetic joint infection within 1 year (OR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.04-1.90; P = .025), return to the operating room for irrigation and débridement (OR, 2.72; 95% CI, 1.67-4.42; P < .001), prosthetic complication (OR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.26-1.88; P < .001), and wound complication (OR, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.2-2.79; P = .004). Similarly, patients with depression had greater health care utilization including higher odds of non-home discharge (OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.3-1.57; P < .001), 90-day readmission (OR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.3-1.86; P < .001), 90-day emergency department visit (OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.23-1.57; P < .001), and extended length of stay (≥3 days; OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.12-1.36; P < .001). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Depression prior to TSA is common and is associated with increased risk of complications and increased health care utilization following TSA. Determining whether this is a modifiable risk factor requires further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Overweight status and obesity represent a global epidemic, with serious consequences at the individual and community levels. The number of total hip arthroplasties (THAs) among overweight and obese patients is expected to rise. Increasing body mass index (BMI) has been associated with a higher risk of mortality and reoperation and lower implant survival. The evaluation of perioperative health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has recently gained importance because of its direct relation to, and impact on, patients' physical, mental, and social well-being as well as health-service utilization. We sought to evaluate the influence of BMI class on HRQoL preoperatively and at 1 year following THA in a register-based cohort study. METHODS This observational cohort study was designed and conducted on the basis of registry data derived from the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) and included 64,055 primary THAs registered between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2015. Patients' baseline preoperative and 1-year postoperative EuroQol-5 Dimension-3 Level (EQ-5D-3L) responses were documented by the treating department and reported to the SHAR through the patient-reported outcome measures program. The EQ-5D-3L includes a visual analogue scale (EQ VAS), which measures the patient's overall health status. RESULTS At 1 year of follow-up, all BMI classes showed significant and clinically relevant improvements in all HRQoL measures compared with preoperative assessment (p < 0.05). Patients reported improved perception of current overall health status for the EQ VAS. Underweight, overweight, and all obesity classes showed increasingly worse 1-year HRQoL compared with normal weight, both with unadjusted and adjusted calculations. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we found that all BMI classes had significant improvement in HRQoL at 1 year following THA. Patients who were underweight, overweight, or obese (classes I to III), compared with those of normal weight, reported worse hip pain and EQ-5D-3L and EQ VAS responses prior to THA and at 1 year postoperatively. These results can assist both health-care providers and patients in establishing reasonable expectations about THA outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is known to negatively influence functional recovery, patient satisfaction, narcotic requirements, implant survivorship, and perioperative resource utilization after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The degree to which this effect is modifiable is largely unknown, with mixed results on preoperative pharmacological intervention, and concomitant concerns over side effects. We aim to investigate the influence of psychotherapy before THA on surgical outcomes, medical complications, and resource utilization. METHODS A retrospective chart review of Truven MarketScan Databases was performed to generate 3 cohorts: patients without depression, patients with depression who did not receive preoperative psychotherapy, and patients with depression who received psychotherapy before surgery. Outcomes of interest were resource utilization, surgical and medical complications, narcotic requirements, and 1-year and 3-year revision rates. RESULTS On multivariate analysis, depressed patients who did not receive psychotherapy were more likely to be discharged to inpatient rehabilitation facility (odds ratio [OR] 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10-1.48, P < .001) and require 2 or more postoperative narcotic prescriptions (OR 1.20, 95% CI 1.06-1.37, P = .004) than depressed patients who received psychotherapy. Patients who did not receive psychotherapy were more likely to have continued narcotic requirements within 1 year after surgery (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.08-1.39, P < .001) and undergo revision at 1 year (OR 1.74, 95% CI 1.17-2.58, P = .006) and 3 years (OR 1.92, 95% CI 1.10-3.34, P = .021) than depressed patients who received psychotherapy. CONCLUSION The negative influence of depression on narcotic requirements, resource utilization, and implant survivorship after THA appears to be modifiable with preoperative psychotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of revision total hip (rTHA) and knee (rTKA) arthroplasty continues to increase. Preoperative depression is known to influence outcomes following primary arthroplasty. Despite this, it remains unknown whether the same relationship exists for patients undergoing revision procedures. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to investigate this relationship. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients undergoing rTHA and rTKA were identified from the Truven MarketScan database. Patients with a diagnosis of prosthetic joint infection were excluded. Two cohorts were created: those with preoperative depression and those without. We included patients who were enrolled in the database for 1 year preoperatively and postoperatively. Demographic and complication data were collected, and statistical analysis was then performed comparing complications between cohorts. RESULTS A total of 10,017 patients undergoing rTHA and 13,973 patients undergoing rTKA were included in this study. Of these, 1305 (13.1%) and 2012 (14.4%) had depression, respectively. Multivariate analysis found that, after rTHA, preoperative depression was associated with extended length of stay, nonhome discharge, 90-day readmission, 90-day emergency department visit, prosthetic joint infection, revision surgery, and increased costs (P < .001). Similarly, following rTKA, depression was associated with extended length of stay, nonhome discharge, 90-day readmission, 90-day emergency department visit, revision surgery, and increased costs (P < .001). CONCLUSION Depression before revision total joint arthroplasty is common and is associated with increased risk of complication and increased healthcare resource utilization following both rTHA and rTKA. Further research will be needed to delineate to what degree this represents a modifiable risk factor.

Abstract
Introduction The aim of the present paper is to establish feasibility and required power of a one-session psychological intervention devoted to increasing patient's self-efficacy and awareness in dealing with anxiety symptoms before major pancreatic cancer surgery. Methods Parallel assignment RCT. All consenting patients listed for pancreatic major surgery during day-hospital visits (T0) between June 2017-June 2018 were assigned randomly in blocks of ten to a psychological intervention vs usual care group to be held the day before surgery (T1). The psychological intervention provided the patient the opportunity to increase self-efficacy in dealing with anxiety by talking with a psychologist about personal concerns and learning mindfulness based techniques to cope with anxiety. Results 400 patients were randomized into the experimental vs. usual care group. 49 and 65, respectively, completed baseline and post-intervention measures. The dropout rate between day-hospital (T0) and pre-surgery intervention (T1) was high (74.5%) due to several management and organization pitfalls. The main outcome, perceived self-efficacy in managing anxiety, showed a significant increase in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.001), and was related to a reduction in state anxiety (p < 0.001). The intervention group perceived also lower emotional pain (p = 0.03). A power analysis was performed to define the appropriate sample size in a definitive RCT. Conclusion Beneath the complexity in retaining patients along their trajectory in pancreatic surgery department, when they had the opportunity to follow a brief psychological intervention, most of them adhered, showing a significant reduction in preoperative emotional distress and less emotional pain perception after surgery. Even if results need caution because of the high attrition rate, we can infer that our psychological intervention has the potential to be proposed in surgical setting, being short, easy to learn and applicable to a wide range of patients. Clinical Trial Registration The trial was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT03408002). The full protocol is available from the last author.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative depression and anxiety in patients undergoing surgery have been shown to be associated with increased postoperative complications, decreased functional improvement, and long-term dissatisfaction. The purpose of this prospective study was to measure the relationship between a diagnosis of depression or anxiety and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) domains, as well as determine which preoperative factors are associated with depression or anxiety in patients undergoing knee surgery. We hypothesized that preoperative depression and/or anxiety would be associated with worse preoperative pain, function, and general health status. METHODS Three-hundred and eighty-six patients undergoing knee surgery between 2015 and 2017 were administered health-related quality of life measures preoperatively, and their medical records were reviewed for relevant medical history. A propensity matched analysis was performed to determine clinical factors independently associated with preoperative depression and/or anxiety. RESULTS The overall study population consisted of 216 males and 170 females, with a mean age of 39.4 ± 16.2 years. From this overall cohort, 43 (11.1%) patients had a positive preoperative diagnosis of depression and/or anxiety. After controlling for covariate imbalances, preoperative depression/anxiety was independently associated with PROMIS Anxiety (p = 0.018), PROMIS Depression (p < 0.019), and Tegner pre-injury (p = 0.013) scores. Regression analysis also determined that preoperative depression/anxiety was independently associated with arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) (p = 0.004), total knee arthroplasty (TKA) (p = 0.019), and uni-compartmental knee arthroplasty (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The results support our hypothesis that preoperative depression/anxiety is associated with worse preoperative pain, function, and general health status. Furthermore, PROMIS Anxiety and Depression tools offer a reliable means of measuring psychological distress in the orthopaedic knee population. Similar to other studies, we also noted psychological comorbidity to be independently associated with ACLR and TKA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several studies have shown that psychiatric disorders can be associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk, that is, pulmonary embolism (PE) and/or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). In this study, we provide a systematic review and meta-analyses of the studies addressing this issue. METHODS All studies addressing the risk of VTE phenomena (whole VTE, PE, DVT, fatal VTE) in individuals with psychotic, mood, and anxiety disorders published between 1998 and 2019 were reviewed and included in the meta-analyses. Main characteristics of the studies and data concerning VTE risk were extracted. The methodological qualities of the studies were also analyzed. A random-effects meta-analysis model was used. A meta-analysis was conducted separately for each disorder, as well as separately for unadjusted and adjusted studies. Meta-analyses were repeated considering only good-quality studies. Heterogeneity was assessed. RESULTS Sixteen studies were reviewed and 15 included in the meta-analyses. Psychotic and bipolar disorders were significantly associated with VTE risk (VTE, DVT, PE, and fatal VTE for psychotic disorder: odds ratios [ORs] between 1.29 and 2.20; VTE, DVT, and PE for bipolar disorder: ORs between 1.22 and 2.14). Depression and anxiety disorders were associated with VTE risk only in adjusted analyses (DVT and PE for depression: ORs = 1.29; VTE and PE for anxiety disorders: ORs between 1.14 and 1.49). CONCLUSIONS The risk of VTE among individuals with psychiatric disorders may be explained by hypercoagulability and stasis, with both being related to, and independent of, treatment adverse effects. VTE risk should be taken into consideration in the treatment for people with psychiatric disorders.

[PMID: 31695264 PMCID: PMC6823790 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcot.2019.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2018] [Revised: 12/20/2018] [Accepted: 01/02/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mental illness in the United States is a growing problem, leading to significant implications for those effected as well as direct and indirect costs to the health care system. The association between psychiatric comorbidity and increased risk of perioperative adverse events has previously been described following elective orthopedic surgery, however, there is a paucity of literature evaluating the correlation between mental health disease and outcomes in patients in an orthopedic trauma setting. METHODS Utilizing data from the US National Hospital Discharge Survey, all patients undergoing surgery for femoral neck fracture were identified between the years 1990 and 2007. The association of depression, anxiety, dementia and schizophrenia on surgical outcomes were then analyzed using univariate regression analysis. RESULTS A cohort of 2,432,931 patients was identified. All psychiatric comorbidities were associated with a lower rate of routine discharge home following surgery (p < 0.001). Schizophrenia was associated with increased odds of any adverse event (p < 0.001), acute post-operative mechanical complications (p < 0.001) and increased length of stay (p < 0.001). DISCUSSION Patients undergoing surgery for femoral neck fracture with comorbid psychiatric illness are at increased risk for non-routine discharge. Schizophrenia is independently associated with an increased risk for post-operative complications. An awareness of these risks should optimize preoperative multidisciplinary patient care planning so as to maximize patient outcome and minimize resource utilization.

Depression and Anxiety Are Risk Factors for Postoperative Pain-Related Symptoms and Complications in Patients Undergoing Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty in the United States. J Arthroplasty 2019; 34:2337-2346. [PMID: 31229373 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2019.05.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 87] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2019] [Revised: 05/19/2019] [Accepted: 05/21/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The study was designed to analyze the underlying relationship between psychiatric comorbidities and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS We used the National Inpatient Sample data from 2002 to 2014. On the basis of the International Classification of Disease, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification, we divided TKA patients into 4 subgroups: those diagnosed with depression, those diagnosed with anxiety, those concomitantly diagnosed with both depression and anxiety, and those without depression or anxiety. The chi-squared test and analysis of variance were performed to measure differences among these 4 subgroups. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine whether psychological comorbidities were independent risk factors for postoperative complications and surgery-related pain. RESULTS A total of 7,153,750 patients in the United States were estimated to have undergone TKA between 2002 and 2014. The prevalence of depression, anxiety, or both diagnoses in TKA patients significantly increased over time. Patients with psychiatric disorders showed higher hospital costs but shorter periods of hospitalization, with higher odds ratios for most complications and all pain-related symptoms observed in this study. CONCLUSION The prevalence of depression and anxiety in TKA patients is increasing steadily each year. Psychiatric disorders were closely correlated with the outcomes of TKA. The mental health of patients undergoing TKA needs more attention to ensure adequate relief from postoperative pain-related symptoms as well as quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of nonopioid pain medication related to patient satisfaction with postoperative pain and identify potential risk factors for decreased patient satisfaction with nonopioid pain medications. METHODS This was a prospective study conducted between January 2017 and April 2018 at a single institution. A power analysis was performed a priori, which determined an appropriate cohort size of 163 patients. Inclusion criteria were all patients older than age 18 who were undergoing a knee arthroscopy for a partial meniscectomy and/or chondroplasty. Patients were prescribed maximum-strength ibuprofen or acetaminophen and completed a preoperative and 2-week postoperative questionnaire to assess satisfaction with pain management. RESULTS Among the 163 patients enrolled in the study, the average age was 48.7 years (range 21-73 years); 74 (45%) were male and 89 (55%) were female. Overall, 81.6% (95% confidence interval 75.7% to 87.5%, P < .001) of patients reported satisfactory postoperative pain control without the use of opioids. Patients with a history of opioid use were found to be less likely to report adequate satisfaction with pain control than were patients who had no prior history of opioid use (relative risk 0.65, 95% confidence interval 0.38-1.12, P = .031). CONCLUSIONS Based on the findings of this study, 82% of patients who undergo arthroscopic partial meniscectomy and/or chondroplasty can achieve satisfactory pain control with nonopioid pain management. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prospective comparative study: Level II.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is an adolescent onset spinal deformity, which can negatively affect the mental health of these patients. But no studies about their parental mental health have been reported so far. In this study, the parental mental health of AIS patients and the associated risk factors were evaluated by a cross-sectional survey. METHODS 64 AIS patients who underwent conservative or surgical treatments in our hospital from April 2017 to March 2018, and their parents were enrolled in the AIS group. 85 parents of healthy children were enrolled in the control group. Depression and anxiety were separately assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7). Spearman correlation coefficients were first estimated to investigate the relationships among the parental PHQ-9/GAD-7 scores and the patient's PHQ-9/GAD-7 scores in the AIS group. Then, the morbidities of the parental probable major depressive disorder (pMDD, PHQ score ≥ 10) and probable general anxiety disorder (pGAD, GAD-7 score ≥ 10) were compared between the AIS and control groups. Third, the potential risk factors for parental pMDD or pGAD in the AIS group were compared using the chi-squared test or Student's t-test, respectively. Finally, the uneven distributive variates were analyzed using the binary logistic regression model. RESULTS Both parental depression and anxiety were moderately associated with those of the patients (r = 0.448~0.515, p < 0.01) in the AIS group, respectively. The morbidities of parental pMDD and pGAD in the AIS group were 14.1%, significantly higher than those in the control group (pMDD = 4.7%, p = 0.045; pGAD = 3.5%, p = 0.019). A Cobb angle of the major curve ≥50° (p = 0.034, odds ratio [OR] = 8.264), patients with pMDD (p = 0.018, OR = 17.576), and low education level of the parents (p = 0.026, OR = 0.122) were the risk factors of parental pMDD. Household income < 8000 rmb/month was the risk factor for parental pGAD (p = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS The morbidities of pMDD and pGAD in parents of AIS patients were higher than those in parents of healthy children. Parental depression and anxiety were closely associated with their children's depression and anxiety. Therefore, the parental mental health of AIS patients should be paid attention to, especially for those parents with risk factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the ability of claims-based risk adjustment and incremental components of clinical data to identify 90-day episode costs among lower extremity joint replacement (LEJR) patients according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) program provisions. DATA SOURCES Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) data for qualifying CJR episodes in the United States, and FFS data linked with clinical data from CJR-qualifying LEJR episodes performed at High Value Healthcare Collaborative (HVHC) and Mayo Clinic in 2013. HVHC and Mayo Clinic populations are subsets of the total FFS population to assess the additive value of additional pieces of clinical data in correctly assigning patients to cost groups. STUDY DESIGN Multivariable logistic models identified high-cost episodes. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION METHODS Clinical data from participating health care systems merged with Medicare FFS data. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Our three populations consisted of 363 621 patients in the CMS population, 4881 in the HVHC population, and 918 in the Mayo population. When modeling per CJR specifications, we observed low to moderate model performance (CMS C-Stat = 0.714; HVHC C-Stat = 0.628; Mayo C-Stat = 0.587). Adding CMS-HCC categories improved identification of patients in the top 20% of episode costs (CMS C-Stat = 0.758, HVHC C-Stat = 0.692, Mayo C-Stat = 0.677). Clinical variables, particularly functional status in the population for which this was available (Mayo C-Stat = 0.783), improved ability to identify patients within cost groups. CONCLUSIONS Policy makers could use these findings to improve payment adjustments for bundled LEJR procedures and in consideration of new data elements for reimbursement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement program implemented by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services did not incorporate risk adjustment for lower extremity joint replacement (LEJR). Lack of adjustment places hospitals at financial risk and creates incentives for adverse patient selection. OBJECTIVE To identify patient-level risk factors associated with health care utilization and costs of patients undergoing LEJR. METHODS A comprehensive search of research databases from January 1, 1990, through January 31, 2016, was conducted. The databases included Ovid MEDLINE In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations, Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, Ovid Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and SCOPUS and is reported according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement. The search identified 2020 studies. Eligible studies focused on primary unilateral and bilateral LEJR. Independent reviewers determined study eligibility and extracted utilization and cost data. RESULTS Seventy-nine of 330 studies (24%) were included and were abstracted for analysis. Comorbidities, age, disease severity, and obesity were associated with increased costs. Increased number of comorbidities and age, presence of specific comorbidities, lower socioeconomic status, and female sex had evidence of increased length of stay. We found no significant association between indication for surgery and the likelihood of readmission. CONCLUSION Developing a risk adjustment model for LEJR that incorporates clinical variables may serve to reduce the likelihood of adverse patient selection and enhance appropriate reimbursement aligned with procedural complexity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mental health conditions are associated with poor outcomes in patients with chronic disease as well as various orthopedic conditions. The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between mental health, preoperative disability, and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty. METHODS Data, including mental health diagnoses, were prospectively collected from patients undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty or reverse total shoulder arthroplasty from 2009 to 2015 at a single academic institution. Shoulder range of motion, visual analog scale, 12-Item Short Form Health Survey, and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores were collected preoperatively and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively. Data were analyzed using multivariate mixed-effect regression analysis. RESULTS The study included 280 patients, 105 (37.5%) of whom had a mental health diagnosis of depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder. Both groups of patients had similar shoulder range of motion, pain, and function before shoulder arthroplasty. Hospital length of stay, discharge destination, and readmissions were similar for both groups. There were similar improvements in pain, function, and range of motion after shoulder arthroplasty in patients with and without diagnosed mental health conditions. CONCLUSIONS Overall, the presence of a psychiatric diagnosis was not predictive of outcomes. Although psychiatric conditions are often considered surgical comorbidities, mental health diagnoses should not be a barrier to performing clinically indicated shoulder arthroplasty, because both groups of patients appear to benefit from pain relief and improved shoulder function.

Abstract
Background Our goal was to determine whether postoperative delirium is associated with inpatient complication rates after primary elective total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods Using the National Inpatient Sample, we analyzed records of patients who underwent primary elective THA from 2000 through 2009 to identify patients with delirium (n = 13,551) and without delirium (n = 1,992,971) and to assess major perioperative complications (acute renal failure, death, myocardial infarction, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, and stroke) and minor perioperative complications (deep vein thrombosis, dislocation, general procedural complication, hematoma, seroma, and wound infection). Patient age, sex, length of hospital stay, and number of comorbidities were assessed. We used multivariate logistic regression to determine the association of delirium with complication rates (significance, p < 0.01). Results Patients with delirium were older (mean, 75 ± 0.2 vs. 65 ± 0.1 years), were more likely to be male (56% vs. 52%), had longer hospital stays (mean, 5.7 ± 0.07 vs. 3.8 ± 0.02 days), and had more comorbidities (mean, 2.8 ± 0.03 vs. 1.4 ± 0.01) (all p < 0.001) versus patients without delirium. Patients with delirium were more likely to have major (11% vs. 3%) and minor (17% vs. 7%) perioperative complications versus patients without delirium (both p < 0.001). When controlling for age, sex, and number of comorbidities, delirium was independently associated with major and minor complications (odds ratio, 2.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.7 to 2.3). Conclusions Delirium is an independent risk factor for major and minor perioperative complications after primary elective THA.
