Abstract
PURPOSE Much of the current literature on total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) has assessed the impact of preoperative medical comorbidities on postoperative clinical outcomes. The literature concerning the impact of psychological disorders such as depression on TSA has increased in popularity in recent years, but there lacks a thorough review of the influence of depression on postoperative pain and functional outcomes. METHODS We queried PubMed/MEDLINE and identified six clinical studies that evaluated the influence of a psychiatric diagnosis of depression on patient outcomes after TSA. Studies that discussed the impacts of depression on TSA, including PROs or adverse events in adults, were included. Studies focused on other psychologic pathology, non-TSA shoulder treatments, or TSA not for primary osteoarthritis were excluded. Non-clinical studies, systematic reviews, letters to the editor, commentaries, dissertations, books, and book chapters were excluded. RESULTS Three cohort studies described patient-reported pain and functional outcomes and three database studies assessed the risk of postoperative complications. Cohort studies demonstrated that the prevalence of depression in patients undergoing TSA decreased from preoperatively to 12-months postoperatively. Two studies demonstrated that depression is an independent predictor of less pre- to postoperative improvement in the ASES score at minimum 2-year follow-up; however, one study found the difference between patients with and without depression did not exceed the minimum clinically important difference. Database studies demonstrated that depression was associated with higher rates of blood transfusion (n = 1, OR = 1.8), anemia (n = 1, OR = 1.65), wound infection (n = 2, OR = 1.41-2.09), prosthetic revision (n = 1, OR = 1.92), and length of hospital stay (n = 3, LOS = 2.5-3 days). CONCLUSION Although patients with a preoperative diagnosis of depression undergoing TSA can achieve satisfactory relief of shoulder pain and restoration of function, they may experience poorer patient-reported outcomes and a higher risk of postoperative adverse events compared to their peers. Surgeons should be cognizant of the influence of depression in their patients to facilitate proper patient selection that maximizes patient satisfaction, function, and minimizes the risk of adverse events following TSA.

The association of pre-existing mental health conditions and patient outcomes after lower extremity orthopaedic trauma: a scoping review. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2024; 34:1111-1120.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Existing research has established a correlation between post-traumatic mental health conditions, including anxiety and depression, and various aspects of recovery, such as pain exacerbations, reduced functional recovery, and lowered patient satisfaction. However, the influence of pre-existing mental health conditions on orthopaedic trauma outcomes has not been thoroughly investigated. The objective of this study was to systematically review literature addressing the association between pre-existing mental health conditions and patient outcomes following surgical interventions for lower extremity fractures in non-geriatric populations. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted using Medline, Embase, and Scopus databases following PRISMA-ScR guidelines to select studies that examined lower extremity orthopaedic trauma outcomes in relation to pre-existing mental health conditions. Studies that evaluated patients with surgically treated lower extremity fractures and a history of mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or mood disorders were included. Studies with a mean patient age above 65 years of age were excluded to focus on non-geriatric injury patterns. RESULTS The systematic review identified 12 studies investigating the relationship between surgical outcomes of orthopaedic lower extremity fractures and pre-existing mental health disorders in non-geriatric populations. Studies included patients with pelvis, femur, tibia, and ankle fractures. A majority (83%) of these studies demonstrated that patients with pre-existing mental health diagnoses had inferior functional outcomes, heightened pain levels, or an increase in postoperative complications. DISCUSSION The presence of pre-existing mental health conditions, particularly anxiety and depression, may predispose orthopaedic trauma patients to an elevated risk of suboptimal functional outcomes, increased pain, or complications after surgical intervention for lower extremity fractures. Future research should focus on interventions that mitigate the impact of mental health conditions on orthopaedic outcomes and patient wellness in this population.

Abstract
Comorbidity network analysis (CNA) is a technique in which mathematical graphs encode correlations (edges) among diseases (nodes) inferred from the disease co-occurrence data of a patient group. The present study applied this network-based approach to identifying comorbidity patterns in older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. This was a retrospective observational cohort study using electronic health records (EHR). EHR data were extracted from the one University Health System in the southeast United States. The cohort included patients aged 65 and above who had a first-time low-energy traumatic hip fracture treated surgically between October 1, 2015 and December 31, 2018 (n = 1,171). Comorbidity includes 17 diagnoses classified by the Charlson Comorbidity Index. The CNA investigated the comorbid associations among 17 diagnoses. The association strength was quantified using the observed-to-expected ratio (OER). Several network centrality measures were used to examine the importance of nodes, namely degree, strength, closeness, and betweenness centrality. A cluster detection algorithm was employed to determine specific clusters of comorbidities. Twelve diseases were significantly interconnected in the network (OER > 1, p-value < .05). The most robust associations were between metastatic carcinoma and mild liver disease, myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure, and hemi/paraplegia and cerebrovascular disease (OER > 2.5). Cerebrovascular disease, congestive heart failure, and myocardial infarction were identified as the central diseases that co-occurred with numerous other diseases. Two distinct clusters were noted, and the largest cluster comprised 10 diseases, primarily encompassing cardiometabolic and cognitive disorders. The results highlight specific patient comorbidities that could be used to guide clinical assessment, management, and targeted interventions that improve hip fracture outcomes in this patient group.

Influences of Cognitive Function and Depressive Symptoms on Pain Trajectories During the First Year Following Hip Fracture Surgery: A Prospective Cohort Study. J Am Med Dir Assoc 2024; 25:104-111. [PMID: 37926427 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2023.09.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purposes of this study were to explore trajectories for patterns of postoperative pain intensity during the first year following hip fracture surgery and the relationships between pain trajectory groups, cognitive impairment, and depressive symptoms. DESIGN A prospective cohort correlational study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A total of 325 patients aged 60 years or older who had received hip fracture surgery at a 3000-bed medical center in northern Taiwan from September 2012 to March 2020. METHODS Data were collected before hospital discharge and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postdischarge. Pain intensity was measured using a numeric rating scale; cognitive function was measured with the Taiwan version of the Mini-Mental State Examination; and depressive symptoms were measured by the Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form. Patients with similar postoperative pain trajectories were categorized into groups and compared with group-based trajectory modeling. Cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms associated with each group were identified by logistic regression. RESULTS Three different pain trajectory groups were identified: drastic decline-minimum pain (47.7%), gentle decline-mild pain (45.5%), and slight decline-moderate pain (6.8%). Patients with cognitive impairment [odds ratio (OR) 11.01, 95% CI 2.99-10.51] and at risk for depression (OR 49.09, 95% CI 10.46-230.30) were more likely to be in the moderate pain group than the minimum pain group. Patients with cognitive impairment (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.25-3.42) were more likely to be in the mild pain group than the minimum pain group. Patients at risk for depression (OR 9.68, 95% CI 3.16-29.63) were more likely to be in the moderate pain group than the mild pain group. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Identifying postoperative pain trajectories can provide insight into the most appropriate pain management for older persons following hip fracture surgery. Attention should focus on assessments for cognitive impairment and risk of depression to prevent persistent postoperative pain. Future studies of older patients with clinically diagnosed cognitive impairment and depression are suggested.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Studies have reported the detrimental effects of depression following spine surgery; however, none have evaluated whether preoperative depression screening in patients with a history of depression is protective from adverse outcomes and lowers health care costs. We studied whether depression screenings/psychotherapy visits within 3 months before 1- to 2-level lumbar fusion were associated with lower medical complications, emergency department utilization, readmissions, and health care costs. METHODS The PearlDiver database from 2010 to 2020 was queried for depressive disorder (DD) patients undergoing primary 1- to 2-level lumbar fusion. Two cohorts were 1:5 ratio matched and included DD patients with (n = 2,622) and DD patients without (n = 13,058) a preoperative depression screen/psychotherapy visit within 3 months of lumbar fusion. A 90-day surveillance period was used to compare outcomes. Logistic regression models computed odds ratio (OR) of complications and readmissions. P value < 0.003 was significant. RESULTS DD patients without depression screening had significantly greater incidence and odds of experiencing medical complications (40.57% vs. 16.00%; OR 2.71, P < 0.0001). Rates of emergency department utilization were increased in patients without screening versus screening (15.78% vs. 4.23%; OR 4.25, P < 0.0001), despite no difference in readmissions (9.31% vs. 9.53%; OR 0.97, P = 0.721). Finally, 90-day reimbursements ($51,160 vs. $54,731) were significantly lower in the screened cohort (all P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Patients who underwent a preoperative depression screening within 3 months of lumbar fusion had decreased medical complications, emergency department utilization, and health care costs. Spine surgeons may use these data to counsel their patients with depression before surgical intervention.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Increasing numbers of individuals admitted to hospitals for trauma are older adults, many of whom also have underlying serious illnesses. Older adults with serious illness benefit from palliative care, but the palliative care needs of seriously ill older adults with trauma have not been elucidated. We hypothesize that older adults with serious illness have a high prevalence of pain, depression, and unpaid caregiving hours before trauma admission. METHODS Using Health and Retirement Study data (2008-2018) linked to Medicare claims, we identified patients 66 years or older who met an established definition of serious illness in surgery and were admitted with trauma. Descriptive analyses were performed for baseline patient characteristics, pre-admission pain (dichotomized as none/mild vs. moderate/severe), depression (dichotomized as no, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression scale [CES-D] < 3 vs. yes, CES-D ≥ 3), and unpaid caregiving hours (dichotomized as low (<30 h/month), high (≥30 h/month)). RESULTS We identified 1741 patients, 67.4% were female and 86.8% White. Mean age was 83 (SD 7.5), and 60.3% had ≥4 comorbidities. The majority (62.9%) were admitted due to falls, 33.5% had isolated hip fracture. The prevalence of baseline moderate/severe pain and depression were 38.1% and 42.6%, respectively. Among the cohort, 42.2% had unpaid caregiving, of those 27.7% had ≥30 h/week of unpaid caregiving hours. CONCLUSIONS Prior to trauma admission, older adults with serious illness have a high prevalence of pain, depression, and unpaid caregiving hours. These findings may inform targeted palliative care interventions to reduce symptom burden and post-discharge healthcare utilization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to evaluate the association between hematocrit (HCT) levels and all-cause mortality in geriatric hip fractures. METHODS Older adult patients with hip fractures were screened between January 2015 and September 2019. The demographic and clinical characteristics of these patients were collected. Linear and nonlinear multivariate Cox regression models were used to identify the association between HCT levels and mortality. Analyses were performed using EmpowerStats and the R software. RESULTS A total of 2589 patients were included in this study. The mean follow-up period was 38.94 months. Eight hundred and seventy-five (33.8%) patients died due to all-cause mortality. Linear multivariate Cox regression models showed that HCT level was associated with mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.97, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.96-0.99, p = 0.0002) after adjusting for confounding factors. However, the linear association was unstable and nonlinearity was identified. A HCT level of 28% was the inflection point for prediction. A HCT level of <28% was associated with mortality (HR = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.87-0.95, p < 0.0001), whereas a HCT level > 28% was not a risk factor for mortality (HR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.97-1.01, p = 0.3792). We found that the nonlinear association was very stable in the propensity score-matching sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS The HCT level was nonlinearly associated with mortality in geriatric hip fracture patients and could be considered a predictor of mortality in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to determine if treated psychological depression is associated with poorer functional outcomes in patients who sustain tibial plateau fractures. METHODS Patients with a tibia plateau fracture were prospectively followed. Functional status was assessed using the Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment (SMFA) at baseline (pre-injury), 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year post injury. Clinical outcomes were recorded at each follow up visit and radiographic outcomes were obtained from follow up radiographs. Records were reviewed to identify patients who were being treated for major depressive disorder (MDD). SMFA scores and clinical outcomes were compared between the depression and no depression cohorts. RESULTS 420 patients were treated for a tibial plateau fracture and the mean age was 50.83 ± 15.60 years. Forty-two (10%) patients with 42 fractures were being treated for MDD at the time of their fracture. Patients with MDD were older (p = 0.05) and were more likely female (p < 0.01). At baseline, the clinical depression cohort had worse Total SMFA scores compared to the non-depressed cohort (5.90 ± 14.41 vs. 2.69 ± 8.35, p < 0.01). There were no differences in total SMFA score or any SMFA subscores at 3, 6, and 12 months. The incidence of wound complications, reoperations, and radiographic outcomes also did not differ between the cohorts. CONCLUSION Despite patients with MDD reporting higher SMFA (poorer) scores at baseline, MDD was not associated with worse injuries, diminished clinical or poorer functional outcomes following tibial plateau fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative depression is one of the devastating problems and important health concerns in adult orthopedics surgical patients. It is often under-diagnosed and appropriate perioperative management of patients is recommended. This study aimed to determine the magnitude and factors associated with postoperative depression among orthopedics patients in Ethiopia. MATERIALS AND METHODS This multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted on 443 adult post-orthopedics surgical patients. All the data were entered and analyzed with SPSS version 25. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression was used to identify the associated factors with the outcome variable. P-values <0.05 were taken as statistically significant with 95% CI. Data were collected after distributing 9-item standard patient health questionnaires and the Oslo-3 item social support scale tool. RESULT Based on our study result, the magnitude of postoperative depression among adult orthopedics surgical patients was 61.8% (95% CI: 56.8-65.7). Using multivariable logistic regression analysis, factors which had an association with postoperative depression were female in gender, Farmer in occupation, having a history of previous substance use, history of anxiety, Patients who had moderate to poor social support, BMI <18.5 kg/m2, and patients who had an open fracture. CONCLUSION The magnitude of postoperative depression was high. Due emphasis needs to be given to screening and treatment of postoperative depression, especially among patients of the female gender, farmer occupation, moderate to poor social support, history of substance use and anxiety, low BMI, and open fracture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure is a common adverse postoperative complication in elderly patients. It is necessary to explore the risk factors of heart after the operation of elderly patients with hip fracture during hospitalization. METHODS Patients with hip fractures admitted to our hospital from January 1, 2019 to December 31 2020 were included, all the patients received internal fixation surgery. The characteristics of patients with and without postoperative heart failure were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were applied to analyze the risk factors of heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture. RESULTS A total of 283 patients with hip fractures were included, the incidence of heart failure was 12.37 %. There were significant differences in the age, hypertension, anemia hypoalbuminemia and duration of surgery between heart failure and no heart failure group(all p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the gender, BMI, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, history of heart failure, cognitive dysfunction, type of fracture, preoperative oxygen saturation, white blood cell count, platelet count, red blood cell count, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and estimated blood loss during surgery between heart failure and no heart failure group(all p > 0.05). Logistic regression analyses indicated that age ≥ 70y(OR2.446, 95% CI1.044 ~ 4.149), hypertension(OR2.152, 95% CI1.125 ~ 4.023), anemia(OR3.094, 95% CI1.294 ~ 5.907), hypoalbuminemia(OR2.377, 95% CI1.205 ~ 4.537), duration of surgery ≥ 120 min(OR1.683, 95% CI1.094 ~ 2.782) were the risk factors of heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture(all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of postoperative heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture is relatively high, which is the result of a combination of high-risk factors. Peri-period risk assessment and prevention of related risks are the keys to a good prognosis for patients.
