Abstract
PURPOSE Major orthopedic surgeries of the lower extremities, which heavily injure the metaphyseal region, are strongly associated with the risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This study aims to investigate the role of metaphyseal trauma as an independent risk factor for DVT. METHODS Patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery of the hip and knee had their existing DVT risk factors recorded. Metaphyseal trauma was defined by the extent of bone injury during these surgeries. The samples were categorized into three surgery groups: total arthroplasty group (TA), hemiarthroplasty group (HA), and the open reduction internal fixation group (ORIF). Logistic regression test between significant existing risk factors and surgery groups determines the independent association between risk factors and DVT. RESULT The study found a 24.8% incidence of asymptomatic DVT in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgeries, with the highest prevalence (37.2%) in TA, which had the largest extent of metaphyseal trauma and the least existing DVT risk factors. TA showed 6.2 OR and 95% CI (p = 0.036) compared to the other existing risk factor in relation to DVT incidence. CONCLUSION Metaphyseal bone trauma in the hip and knee major orthopedic surgery is an independent risk factor for deep vein thrombosis.

Abstract
Objective To explore the impact of anemia on the incidence of perioperative lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 1 916 non-fracture patients who underwent THA between September 2015 and December 2021, meeting the selection criteria. Among them, there were 811 male and 1 105 female patients, aged between 18 and 94 years with an average of 59.2 years. Among the patients, 213 were diagnosed with anemia, while 1 703 were not. Preoperative DVT was observed in 55 patients, while 1 861 patients did not have DVT preoperatively (of which 75 patients developed new-onset DVT postoperatively). Univariate analysis was performed on variables including age, gender, body mass index (BMI), diabetes, hypertension, history of tumors, history of thrombosis, history of smoking, revision surgery, preoperative D-dimer positivity (≥0.5 mg/L), presence of anemia, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, transfusion requirement, and pre- and post-operative levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets. Furthermore, logistic regression was utilized for multivariate analysis to identify risk factors associated with DVT formation. Results Univariate analysis showed that age, gender, hypertension, revision surgery, preoperative levels of red blood cells, preoperative hemoglobin, preoperative D-dimer positivity, and anemia were influencing factors for preoperative DVT ( P<0.05). Further logistic regression analysis indicated that age (>60 years old), female, preoperative D-dimer positivity, and anemia were risk factors for preoperative DVT ( P<0.05). Univariate analysis also revealed that age, female, revision surgery, preoperative D-dimer positivity, anemia, transfusion requirement, postoperative level of red blood cells, and postoperative hemoglobin level were influencing factors for postoperative new-onset DVT ( P<0.05). Further logistic regression analysis indicated that age (>60 years old), female, and revision surgery were risk factors for postoperative new-onset DVT ( P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence of anemia is higher among patients with preoperative DVT for THA, and anemia is an independent risk factor for preoperative DVT occurrence in THA. While anemia may not be an independent risk factor for THA postoperative new-onset DVT, the incidence of anemia is higher among patients with postoperative new-onset DVT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The need for thromboprophylaxis in Asian patients after primary total joint arthroplasty (TJA) remains inconclusive. We aimed to identify the risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) events following primary TJA in a Taiwanese population. METHODS From January 2010 to December 2019, we studied 7511 patients receiving primary TJA from a single surgeon. We validated the incidence and risk factors for 30- and 90-day symptomatic VTE events, including age, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking, medical comorbidities, VTE history, presence of varicose veins, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) vs total hip arthroplasty (THA), unilateral vs bilateral procedure and receipt of VTE prophylaxis, transfusion, and length of stay. RESULTS The incidence of 30- and 90-day symptomatic VTE events was 0.33% and 0.44%, respectively. Multivariate regression analysis showed that BMI ≥30 (adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 4.862, 95% CI, 1.776-13.313), bilateral TJA procedure (aOR: 2.665, 95% CI, 1.000-7.104), and presence of varicose veins (aOR: 9.946, 95% CI, 1.099-90.024) were associated with increased odds of 30-day symptomatic VTE events. Age ≥77 years (aOR, 2.358, 95% CI, 1.034-5.381) and BMI ≥30 (aOR: 2.832, 95% CI, 1.039-7.721) were associated with increased odds of 90-day symptomatic VTE events. CONCLUSION Age ≥77 years, BMI ≥30, bilateral TJA procedure, or presence of varicose veins may require pharmacological thromboprophylaxis because such patients have a higher risk of VTE after primary TJA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Rivaroxaban is a potent, selective direct inhibitor of factor Xa. The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapy adherence, safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban therapy in reducing the risk of venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing elective hip or knee replacement. METHODS The prospective, post-marketing clinical trial was conducted on adult patients after knee or hip endoprosthesis. Data were collected at the baseline and three control visits (five days, a month and three months after the baseline). Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) was used for evaluation of therapy adherence. RESULTS The study included 60 patients who received rivaroxaban therapy in a dose of 10 mg once a day. A low adherence to the drug was observed in 15% patients. All patients had an average MMAS-8 score in the range of high adherence 0.65 ± 0.90. Symptomatic venous thromboembolism was observed in two patients with numerous risk factors. No major bleeding was recorded during entire follow-up period. During the five-day postoperative in-hospital follow-up, signs of wound complications were recorded in 8 (13.3%) patients, and 4 (6.7%) of them underwent surgical revision of the wound. CONCLUSION Generally, there was high adherence to rivaroxaban therapy, but low adherence was present in 15% of patients. Rivaroxaban showed good safety and efficacy. However, high proportion of wound complications and patients needing surgical revision of the wound should be further evaluated through larger studies.

Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a complex and multifactorial process arising from a variety of factors, including recent surgical procedures, traumatic events, and periods of prolonged immobility. The extended period of stasis post-orthopedic surgery places patients at a notably high risk of developing DVT, and DVT-related pulmonary embolism (PE) ranks as the third most common cause of death in orthopedic surgery patients. This review examines the multifaceted risk factors contributing to the development of DVT in orthopedic patients. Additionally, it addresses the importance of DVT prophylaxis in orthopedic settings, the efficacy and safety of various prophylactic methods encompassing both mechanical and pharmacological approaches, and the economic dimensions of DVT prophylaxis, including scrutiny of cost-effectiveness and the exploration of strategies for optimization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a frequent complication following hip arthroplasty. There still has been a lack of studies analyzing the perioperative risk factors of DVT following hip arthroplasty via direct anterior approach (DAA). METHODS Patients who underwent unilateral primary hip arthroplasty via DAA in our hospital from August 2015 to January 2022 were included. Patients' data, including demographic data, clinical features, past medical history, operative data, and laboratory data, were analyzed and compared between patients with and without DVT. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the independent risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the best cutoff value of continuous variables with statistical significance. RESULT A total of 651 patients were included. The incidence of DVT before and after hip arthroplasty was 12.7% and 6.7%, respectively. Logistic regression analysis indicated that age ≥ 65 years (OR 4.594, 95% CI 1.994-10.587), women (OR 2.331, 95% CI 1.285-4.227), and cerebral infarction (OR 1.984, 95% CI 1.138-3.460) were independent risk factors for preoperative DVT. And age ≥ 65 years (OR 4.859, 95% CI 1.062-22.226), tumor (OR 3.622, 95% CI 1.108-11.841), and preoperative D-dimer (OR 1.040, 95% CI 1.004-1.078) were risk factors for postoperative DVT. The ROC curve analysis showed that the best cutoff value of preoperative D-dimer for the diagnosis of postoperative DVT is 1.44 mg/L. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of DVT in patients undergoing DAA hip arthroplasty was low and the occurrence of DVT before and after unilateral primary hip arthroplasty performed through DAA was related to multiple factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the rate of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in surgical inpatients with pharmacological thromboprophylaxis and additional graduated compression stockings (GCSs) versus pharmacological thromboprophylaxis alone. BACKGROUND Surgical inpatients have elevated VTE risk; recent studies cast doubt on whether GCS confers additional protection against VTE, compared with pharmacological thromboprophylaxis alone. METHODS The review followed "Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses" guidelines using a registered protocol (CRD42017062655). The MEDLINE and Embase databases were searched up to November 2022. Randomized trials reporting VTE rate after surgical procedures, utilizing pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, with or without GCS, were included. The rates of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism, and VTE-related mortality were pooled through fixed and random effects. RESULTS In a head-to-head meta-analysis, the risk of DVT for GCS and pharmacological thromboprophylaxis was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.54-1.36) versus for pharmacological thromboprophylaxis alone (2 studies, 70 events, 2653 participants). The risk of DVT in pooled trial arms for GCS and pharmacological thromboprophylaxis was 0.54 (95% CI: 0.23-1.25) versus pharmacological thromboprophylaxis alone (33 trial arms, 1228 events, 14,108 participants). The risk of pulmonary embolism for GCS and pharmacological prophylaxis versus pharmacological prophylaxis alone was 0.71 (95% CI: 0.0-30.0) (27 trial arms, 32 events, 11,472 participants). There were no between-group differences in VTE-related mortality (27 trial arms, 3 events, 12,982 participants). CONCLUSIONS Evidence from head-to-head meta-analysis and pooled trial arms demonstrates no additional benefit for GCS in preventing VTE and VTE-related mortality. GCS confer a risk of skin complications and an economic burden; current evidence does not support their use for surgical inpatients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of triple-dose intravenous tranexamic acid (TXA) in patients following total hip arthroplasty (THA) using thromboelastography (TEG). METHODS One hundred thirty patients undergoing THA were prospectively enrolled in the study. According to the intravenous infusion TXA dose, patients were divided into single-dose (n=65; mean age=60.8 ± 8.1 years) and triple-dose groups (n=65; mean age=61.8 ± 8.6 years). Complete blood count (CBC), conventional coagulation tests (CCT), and TEG were conducted 1 day before the operation, on postoperative day 1 (POD1), and postoperative day 7 (POD7). Color Doppler ultrasonography was performed 1 day before the operation and on POD7. Drainage blood loss, total blood loss (TBL), hidden blood loss (HBL), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) incidence, and blood transfusion rates were calculated and recorded. The CCT, CBC, and TEG parameters were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS Single- and triple-dose groups had significantly different hematocrit on POD7 (P < .05). No significant differences were found in CCT and hemoglobin at any corresponding time point between the 2 groups (P > .05). Despite the reaction time (R) on POD1 (P < .05), there were no significant differences in other TEG parameters at any other time point between the 2 groups (P > 0.05). For drainage blood loss and TBL, the triple-dose group had lesser blood loss than the single-dose group (P < .05). However, no significant differences were found for blood transfusion rate, HBL, or incidence of DVT (P > .05). CONCLUSION Compared with single-dose, triple-dose TXA can be more effective in decreasing blood loss without increasing DVT incidence in patients undergoing THA. Although there is a notable disparity in the R time on POD1, the administration of triple-dose TXA does not substantially impact the coagulation status as assessed by TEG and CCT.

Zeng G, Li X, Li W, Wen Z, Wang S, Zheng S, Lin X, Zhong H, Zheng J, Sun C. A nomogram model based on the combination of the systemic immune-inflammation index, body mass index, and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio to predict the risk of preoperative deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with intertrochanteric femoral fracture: a retrospective cohort study. J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:561. [PMID: 37533084 PMCID: PMC10398922 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-03966-4] [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: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 06/29/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has been considered as a frequent and serious consequence of intertrochanteric femoral fractures in the elderly. Several negative repercussions of DVT can be considerably mitigated by its timely recognition and treatment. The current work was aimed at exploring the factors independently predicting DVT among cases suffering from intertrochanteric femoral fractures and validate their predictive usefulness in diagnosing DVT. METHODS Between April 2017 and July 2022, clinical information from 209 cases showing preoperative DVT for femoral intertrochanteric fractures were retrospectively evaluated. In patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures, logistic regression analysis with a backward stepwise method was adopted for detecting independent predictors for the diagnosis of preoperative DVT. Using multivariate logistic regression, a nomogram prediction model was developed and verified with the testing group. RESULTS According to multivariate logistic regression model, body mass index (BMI) (OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.63-0.99, P = 0.042), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (OR 7.29, 95% CI 1.53, 34.64, P = 0.0012), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) (OR 6.61, 95% CI 2.35, 18.59, P = 0.001) were independent predictors for DVT before surgery among cases developing intertrochanteric femoral fracture. AUC values were 0.862 and 0.767 for training and testing groups, separately, while their mean errors in the calibration curve were 0.027 and 0.038 separately. Decision curve analysis (DCA) curve revealed a high value of clinical application for both groups. CONCLUSION Upon admission, BMI, NLR, and SII are independent predictors of DVT before surgery among cases developing intertrochanteric femoral fractures. Additionally, the nomogram based on the BMI, NLR, and SII can assist clinicians in determining if preventive and symptomatic therapies are required to improve DVT prognosis and reduce its associated mortality.

An Increase in Same-day Discharge After Total Joint Arthroplasty During the COVID-19 Pandemic Does Not Influence Patient Outcomes: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis. Arthroplast Today 2023; 20:101115. [PMID: 36776732 PMCID: PMC9905097 DOI: 10.1016/j.artd.2023.101115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused major transitions in total joint arthroplasty (TJA), notably with the increased utilization of same-day discharge (SDD) pathways. This study assessed the effect of accelerated discharge pathways following the resumption of elective cases during the COVID-19 pandemic on SDD rates, adverse events, and characteristics associated with successful SDD following total hip and total knee arthroplasty. Methods This retrospective study split patients into cohorts: TJA prior to COVID-19 (pre-COVID, July 2019-December 2019) and TJA following the resumption of elective surgeries (post-COVID, July 2020-December 2020). Patient characteristics such as age, sex, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, and pertinent comorbidities were analyzed, and length of stay, 30-day emergency department (ED) visit rates, readmissions, and reoperations were compared. Results A total of 1333 patients met inclusion criteria that were divided into pre-COVID (692) and post-COVID (641) cohorts. The pre-COVID group had a median age of 69 years (interquartile range 63-76), and the post-COVID group had a median age of 68 years (interquartile range 61-75) (P = .024). SDD increased from 0.1% to 28.9% (P < .001), and length of stay decreased from 1.3 days to 0.89 days (P < .001). There was no change in 30-day ED visits, readmissions, or reoperations (P = .817, P = .470, and P = .643, respectively). There was no difference in ED visits, readmissions, or reoperations in SDD patients. The odds of SDD were associated with age (P < .001, odds ratio [OR] = 0.94), body mass index (P = .006, OR = 0.95), male sex (P < .001, OR = 1.83), and history of tobacco use (P < .001, OR = 1.87). Conclusions At our institution, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the utilization of SDD pathways without increasing ED visits, readmissions, or reoperations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship between high density lipoprotein (HDL) and lower extremities deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. METHODS A total of 348 patients undergoing hip arthroplasty in our hospital were enrolled, and divided into observation (n = 154, 44.25%) and control (n = 194, 55.75%) groups according to the occurrence of lower extremities DVT. The presence of DVT was assessed 1 day before surgery and routinely every 2 days after surgery. The factors of DVT were analyzed by single factor analysis, multivariate logistic regression analysis, and Pearson correlation. RESULTS The age and body mass index in the observation group were significantly higher (p = .045, p = .041, respectively), while HDL-C was significantly lower (p = .032) than the control group. Increase age, high BMI, low apolipoprotein-A1 level and low HDL-C level were risk factors for lower extremities DVT. The mean HDL-C in the observation and control groups was 0.91 ± 0.27 and 1.19 ± 0.37, respectively, the adjusted odds ratio was 1.050; 95% CI 1.010-1.092, p = .014. CONCLUSION Elderly patients with high BMI and low HDL-C level undergoing hip arthroplasty are at risk of lower extremities DVT, and should be paid attention to clinically.
