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.

An analysis of the prevalence and risk factors of deep vein thrombosis in non-fracture patients awaiting total hip arthroplasty: a retrospective study of 1244 cases. J Orthop Surg Res 2024; 19:84. [PMID: 38254120 PMCID: PMC10801973 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-04488-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has been one of the most dangerous complications in total hip arthroplasty (THA). If a patient's pre-surgical DVT is overlooked, it can easily be mistaken for a post-operative thrombus and lead to an increased risk of DVT during and after surgery. This retrospective study was to explore the incidence and associated risk factors of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in non-fracture patients before total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS From September 2015 to September 2020, 1242 patients admitted for THA were enrolled with 1120 patients (90.2%) for primary THA and 122 patients (9.8%) for revision THA. An experienced sonographer performed a bedside ultrasound to detect DVT in bilateral lower limbs preoperatively. Univariate and logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the independent risk factors. RESULTS 38 patients (3.1%) were detected with preoperative DVT. Univariate analysis showed that age (P < 0.001), D-dimer level (P = 0.002), female patients (P = 0.016), revision THA (P < 0.001), Barthel Index score (P = 0.010) were significantly associated with preoperative DVT. In subgroup comparison, the incidence of DVT increased with age significantly (P < 0.001) and D-dimer level (P < 0.001). In logistic regression analysis, age ≥ 75 years old (odds ratio [OR] 3.678, 95% CI [2.197-18.721], P < 0.001), gender (OR 2.709, 95% CI [1.244-5.896], P = 0.012), higher D-dimer ≥ 0.5 mg/l (OR 6.841, 95% CI [2.197-18.721], P < 0.001) and revision THA (OR 2.240, 95% CI [1.143-5.372], P = 0.05) were confirmed as the independent risk factors. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of preoperative DVT in non-fracture patients was 3.1%, with 2.4% in primary THA and 9.0% in revision THA. Age ≥ 75 years old, female, D-dimer ≥ 0.5 mg/l, and revision THA were independent risk factors. When evaluating the risk factors associated with thrombus formation preoperatively, it is important to take these into account before surgery.

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.

Effect of different application duration of a venous foot pump on prevention of venous thromboembolism after hip and knee arthroplasty: a multicenter prospective clinical trial. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:931. [PMID: 38041039 PMCID: PMC10691185 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-06921-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the optimal duration of applying a venous foot pump (VFP) in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) following hip and knee arthroplasty. METHODS A total of 230 patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty between March 2021 and March 2022 in orthopaedic departments of four major teaching hospitals were prospectively enrolled. Patients were randomly divided into five groups based on the duration of the VFP application. Postoperative deep vein thromboses (DVT), including proximal, distal, and intermuscular DVT, were recorded for analysis. Postoperative blood coagulation examinations, such as D-dimer and active partial thromboplastin time (APTT), pain outcome, and degree of comfort were also collected. RESULTS Two of the 230 patients withdrew due to early discharge from the hospital, and 228 patients were included in the final analysis. The mean age was 60.38 ± 13.33 years. The baseline characteristics were comparable among the five groups. Compared with the other groups, patients treated with 6-hour VFP had the lowest incidence of DVT (8.7%, 4/46), followed by those treated with 1-hour VFP (15.2%, 7/46), 12-hour VFP (15.6%, 7/45), 18-hour VFP(17.8%, 8/45) and 20-hour VFP(21.7%, 10/46), but with no significant difference (P = 0.539). Regarding postoperative blood coagulation examinations, patients treated with 6-hour VFP had the lowest D-dimer (P = 0.658) and the highest APTT (P = 0.262) compared with the other four groups. 6-hour VFP also had the lowest pain score (P = 0.206) and the highest comfort score (P = 0.288) compared with the other four groups. CONCLUSIONS Six hours may be the optimal duration of applying VFP for the prevention of VTE in patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty in terms of VTE incidence, postoperative blood coagulation examinations, pain outcomes, and comfort scores.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of drainage on heterotopic ossification (HO) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to evaluate other postoperative complications and joint dysfunction between patients with and without drainage. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, the medical records of patients who underwent THA from 2017 to 2019 were reviewed. The patients were divided into a drainage group and non-drainage group. Standard preoperative anteroposterior and lateral radiographs were assessed by senior radiologists for HO analysis. Clinical indicators included the hemoglobin concentration, superficial infection, blood transfusion, hematoma formation, hip range of motion (ROM), erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein concentration, dressing changes, visual analogue scale score, and Harris Hip Score (HHS). RESULTS The incidence of HO was significantly higher in the drainage than non-drainage group (32.0% vs. 16.3%). The presence of severe HO (Brooker grade III or IV) was also different between the groups. Patients in the non-drainage group had smaller ROM early after surgery, but the final ROM and HHS did not differ significantly between the groups. CONCLUSIONS The rate and degree of HO after THA were significantly different between patients with and without drainage. There is no added advantage of closed suction drainage over no drainage in primary THA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the risk of symptomatic VTE and prosthesis revision after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS Seven thousand one hundred eighty-two patients with primary unilateral TKA treated in our hospital from 2011 to 2020 were divided into four groups according to BMI: BMI < 25 kg/m2, BMI 25 kg/m2-29.9 kg/m2, BMI 30 kg/m2-34.9 kg/m2 and BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2. Incidence, Odds ratio and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were used to evaluate the effects of BMI on symptomatic VTE and prosthesis revision risk after TKA. RESULTS The incidence of VTE after TKA was 8.9‰(64/7182). There was no significant difference in the incidence of VTE among different BMI groups(P = 0.452). Deep vein thrombosis mainly occurred in the distal lower extremities, especially in intermuscular veins. Revision rate of prosthesis after TKA was 6.4‰(46/7182). There was no significant difference in revision rate among different BMI groups(P = 0.718). In the univariate analysis of TKA, compared with patients with normal BMI, the risk of postoperative VTE and prosthesis revision in patients with overweight, obesity class I and obesity class II did not increase. Higher prosthesis revision rate and lower prosthesis survival rate were observed in BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 group, although the difference was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Through such a retrospective large sample data of long-term follow-up, we believe that the higher BMI was not associated with the increased risk of symptomatic VTE and prosthesis revision after TKA. When TKA was used for appropriate indications, high BMI should not be considered as a contraindication.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a well-known complication following orthopaedic surgery. The incidence of this complication has decreased substantially since the introduction of routine thromboprophylaxis. However, concerns have been raised about increased bleeding complications caused by aggressive thromboprophylaxis.Attention has grown for aspirin as a safer thromboprophylactic agent following orthopaedic surgery.A systematic review using MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science databases was undertaken to compare the effectiveness of aspirin prophylaxis following knee surgery with the current standard prophylactic agents (low molecular weight heparin [LMWH], vitamin K antagonists and factor Xa inhibitors).No significant difference in effectiveness of VTE prevention was found between aspirin, LMWH and warfarin. Factor Xa inhibitors were more effective, but increased bleeding complications were reported.As evidence is limited and of low quality with substantial heterogeneity, further research with high-quality, adequately powered trials is needed.

Abstract
Background The prevalence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is 0.40%-1.2%. Trends in TJA are for shorter hospital stays with lower complication rates. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether hospital length of stay (LOS) is associated with risk of a thromboembolic event after TJA. Methods This was a retrospective study of patients undergoing TJA during 2013-2017 at Louisiana and Texas hospitals. Univariable analyses and multivariable logistic regression examined patient characteristics (sex, race, age, body mass index, Charlson Comorbidity Index, TJA type, and LOS) associated with experiencing a VTE event after discharge and before 1-year follow-up. Results Of the 13,969 patients who met inclusion criteria, 338 (2.4%) had a VTE event after discharge. In multivariable regression analysis, more severe comorbidities (odds ratio: 1.30, 95% confidence interval: 1.23-1.37; P < .001) and LOS days (odds ratio: 1.07, 95% confidence interval: 1.01 to 1.14; P = .0215) were associated with an increased risk of VTE. Conclusion Patients with more severe comorbidities or a longer LOS had a greater risk of VTE after discharge following TJA.

Incidence and Risk Factors for the Development of Acute Colonic Pseudo-Obstruction (Ogilvie Syndrome) in Total Joint Arthroplasty Patients. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2021; 29:159-166. [PMID: 32501855 DOI: 10.5435/jaaos-d-20-00096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2020] [Accepted: 05/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (Ogilvie syndrome [OS]) is a rare but devastating condition that can develop in orthopaedic patients postoperatively. The objective of this study was to identify the risk factors for developing OS after total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to compare the outcomes between patients who did and did not develop OS postoperatively. METHODS This was a retrospective review using the National Inpatient Sample, a national database incorporating inpatient hospitalization information. ICD-9 codes were used to identify patients who underwent primary and revision THA or TKA. Patients were separated based on the diagnosis of OS. Primary outcomes assessed included patient mortality, postoperative complications, length of stay, and cost during index hospitalization. RESULTS From 2001 to 2014, a total of 12,541,169 patients underwent primary and revision THA or TKA. Of those, 3,182 patients (0.03%) developed OS postoperatively. There was an increased incidence of OS in revision THA and TKA compared with primary THA and TKA. Fluid and electrolyte disorders were associated with the largest increased adjusted risk of OS. Patients with OS had an increased adjusted risk of overall postoperative complications and being discharged to skilled nursing facility. Patients with OS had an increased average length of stay and hospitalization cost compared with patients without OS. DISCUSSION Given our findings, the risk factors for the development of OS, including revision surgery, should be identified and minimized during the perioperative period to prevent the development of this morbid and potentially life-threatening complication. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III (Retrospective cohort study).

Abstract
Objective To compare the hemostatic effect and safety in primary unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) receiving nadroparin calcium, enoxaparin sodium, rivaroxaban, or apixaban after anti-fibrinolysis with tranexamic acid (TXA) and explore the best anticoagulant. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 184 patients who underwent the primary unilateral THA between January 2014 and December 2018, administrated 15 mg/kg TXA before surgery and received nadroparin calcium, enoxaparin sodium, rivaroxaban, or apixaban. The patients were divided into four groups based on the different anticoagulants: 46 patients received nadroparin calcium; 45 patients received enoxaparin sodium; 47 patients received rivaroxaban; the other 46 patients received apixaban. There was no significant difference in age, gender, body mass, body mass index, the types of hip joint diseases, complications, anesthesia mode, operation time, and preoperative laboratory indexes (hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet, prothrombin time, activated partial prothrombin time, blood volume) ( P>0.05). Perioperative blood data (total blood loss, hidden blood loss, dominant blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, maximum loss of hemoglobin, and blood transfusion rate) and complications (incision, bleeding, and thrombosis) were recorded and compared between groups. Results There was no significant difference in total blood loss, hidden blood loss, dominant blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, maximum loss of hemoglobin, and blood transfusion rate between groups ( P>0.05). The comparison of postoperative complications showed that 1 case (2.1%) of redness and swelling of incision occurred in the rivaroxaban group, and 1 case (2.2%) of the other 3 groups each had poor incision healing. No incision infection, fat liquefaction, or other incision complications occurred in the 4 groups. There was no significant difference in incision complication between groups ( P>0.05). There were 2 cases (4.3%) bleeding events (1 case of right inguinal hematoma and 1 case of subcutaneous ecchymosis in front of left leg) in the nadroparin calcium group, while no bleeding event occurred in the other 3 groups, which had no significant difference in bleeding complication between groups ( χ 2=5.612, P=0.132). There was 1 case (2.2%) of intermuscular vein thrombosis of the lower extremity in the nadroparin calcium group and no case in the other 3 groups, which had no significant difference between groups ( χ 2=2.789, P=0.425). Neither deep venous thrombosis nor pulmonary embolism occurred in any group. Conclusion No significant difference in the hemostatic effect and incidences of complications for patients underwent primary unilateral THA receiving nadroparin calcium, enoxaparin sodium, rivaroxaban, or apixaban after anti-fibrinolysis with TXA. One of the four anticoagulants can be selected to prevent thrombosis after anti-fibrinolysis with TXA, which has certain safety.

Abstract
Background Total hip and total knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) are increasing in incidence annually. While these procedures are effective in improving pain and function, there is a risk of complications. Methods Using data from an arthroplasty registry, we described complication rates including reasons for reoperation and readmission from the acute period to six months following THA and TKA in an Australian context. Data collection at 6 months was conducted via telephone interview, and included patient-reported complications such as joint stiffness, swelling and paraesthesia. We used logistic regression to identify risk factors for complications. Results In the 8444 procedures included for analysis, major complications were reported by 9.5 and 14.4% of THA and TKA patients, respectively, whilst minor complications were reported by 34.0 and 46.6% of THA and TKA patients, respectively. Overall complications rates were 39.7 and 53.6% for THA and TKA patients, respectively. In THA patients, factors associated with increased risk for complications included increased BMI, previous THA and bilateral surgery, whereas in TKA patient factors were heart disease, neurological disease, and pre-operative back pain and arthritis in a separate joint. Female gender and previous TKA were identified as protective factors for minor complications in TKA patients. Conclusion We found moderate rates of major and high rates of minor postoperative complications following THA and TKA in Australia and have identified several patient factors associated with these complications. Efforts should be focused on identifying patients with higher risk and optimising pre- and post-operative care to reduce the rates of these complications.

Abstract
Comparison of different anticoagulants in blood management and complications with tranexamic acid (TXA) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is unclear. Our aim was to compare the efficacy and safety among receiving nadroparin calcium, enoxaparin sodium or rivaroxaban after TXA in THA.150 patients undergoing primary unilateral THA were received 15 mg/kg intravenous TXA (IV-TXA) before skin incision, followed by 1 of nadroparin calcium (Group A), enoxaparin sodium (Group B), or rivaroxaban (Group C) randomly during hospitalization. The primary outcome was hidden blood loss (HBL). Other outcomes such as the maximum hemoglobin (Hb) drop, total blood loss (TBL), the volume of drainage, transfusion rate, length of hospital stay (LOS), and complications were also compared.There were no statistically significant differences in HBL, the maximum hemoglobin (Hb) drop, transfusion rate, and complications among 3 groups. LOS was significantly higher for patients in Group B than Group A (P = .026). Neither deep venous thrombosis (DVT) nor pulmonary embolism (PE) occurred in any group.There were no differences in efficacy and safety in patients undergoing THA receiving nadroparin calcium, enoxaparin sodium, or rivaroxaban after anti-fibrinolysis with TXA.
