INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2024:10.1007/s00264-024-06248-8. [PMID: 39007939 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-024-06248-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE With over 100,000 procedures completed per year, hip and knee arthroplasty are two of the most common surgical procedures performed in Canada. There has been literature indicating that patient reported outcome measures (PROM) will start to plateau between six and 12 months. The purpose of this paper was to analyze the trajectory of PROMs following total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA), as well as assess the impact of any potential confounders on this trajectory. The central research question was: At what point do PROMS plateau among patients that undergo elective THA and TKA? METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of data from a prospective database. Patients were eligible if they had undergone an elective, primary THA/TKA with Oxford Scores recorded pre-operatively, and at least at two of the following four time points: six weeks, six months, one year, and two years. RESULTS Mean pre-operative Oxford scores were 18.0 (7.8) for THA, and 20.1 (7.5) for TKA. For both THA and TKA, there were statistically significant interval improvements in Oxford scores from six weeks [THA: 33.8 (7.9)/TKA: 28.7 (7.8)] to six months [THA: 40.2 (7.3)/TKA: 35.9 (8.3)], and from six months to one year [THA: 41.0 (7.3)/TKA: 37.3 (8.4)], but not from one to two years [THA: 40.0 (8.5)/TKA: 36.4 (9.6)]. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing either primary THA or TKA can expect clinically meaningful improvements in the first six months after surgery. Beyond this time point, there is a plateau in PROMs. These findings are important for both setting patient expectations in pre-operative discussions, and allowing surgeons to have a realistic understanding of their patients' expected post-operative course.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study is to clarify the interactive combinations of clinical factors associated with knee extension strength 2 yrs after total knee arthroplasty. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 264 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty. Knee extension strength was assessed preoperatively, 3 wks, and 2 yrs after total knee arthroplasty. Physical functions were measured with 10-m walking test, Timed Up and Go test, one-leg standing time, isometric knee flexion strength, knee joint stability, knee pain, femora-tibial angle, and passive knee extension and flexion angle before surgery as a baseline and 3 wks after total knee arthroplasty as acute phase. Regression tree analysis was conducted to clarify the interactive combinations that accurately predict the knee extension strength 2 yrs after total knee arthroplasty. RESULTS Operational side knee extension strength (>1.00 Nm/kg) at acute phase was the primal predictor for the highest knee extension strength at 2 yrs after total knee arthroplasty. Acute phase Timed Up and Go test (≤10.13 secs) and baseline 10-m walking test (≤11.72 secs) was the second predictor. Acute phase nonoperative side knee extension strength (>0.90 Nm/kg) was also selected as the predictor. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that knee extension strength or Timed Up and Go test in the acute phase and 10-m walking test before total knee arthroplasty are useful for estimating the knee extension strength after total knee arthroplasty. The results will help determine specific postoperative rehabilitation goals and training options.

J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00526-6. [PMID: 38810812 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.05.054] [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: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative planning in total hip arthroplasty (THA) involves utilizing radiographs or advanced imaging modalities, including computerized tomography scans, for precise prediction of implant sizing and positioning. This study aimed to compare 3-dimensional (3D) versus 2-dimensional (2D) preoperative planning in primary THA with respect to key surgical metrics, including restoration of the horizontal and vertical center of rotation (COR), combined offset, and leg length. METHODS This study included 60 patients undergoing primary THA for symptomatic hip osteoarthritis (OA), randomly allocated to either robotic arm-assisted or conventional THA. Digital 2D templating and 3D planning using the robotic software were performed for all patients. All measurements to evaluate the accuracy of templating methods were conducted on the preoperative computerized tomography scanogram, using the contralateral hip as a reference. Sensitivity analyses explored differences between 2D and 3D planning in patients who had superolateral or medial OA patterns. RESULTS Compared to 2D templating, 3D templating was associated with less medialization of the horizontal COR (-1.2 versus -0.2 mm, P = .002) and more accurate restoration of the vertical COR (1.63 versus 0.3 mm, P < .001) with respect to the contralateral side. Furthermore, 3D templating was superior for planned restoration of leg length (+0.23 versus -0.74 mm, P = .019). Sensitivity analyses demonstrated that in patients who had medial OA, 3D planning resulted in less medialization of horizontal COR and less offset reduction. Conversely, in patients who had superolateral OA, there was less lateralization of horizontal COR and less offset increase using 3D planning. Additionally, 3D planning showed superior reproducibility for stem, acetabular cup sizes, and neck angle, while 2D planning often led to smaller stem and cup sizes. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated higher accuracy in the planned restoration of native joint mechanics using 3D planning. Additionally, this study highlights distinct variances between the 2 planning methods across different OA pattern subtypes, offering valuable insights for clinicians employing 2D planning.

Factors associated with physical activity following total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis: a longitudinal study. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:178. [PMID: 38413902 PMCID: PMC10898134 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07306-3] [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: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), patients' physical activity (PA) levels at 6 months are lower than those of healthy subjects. Few studies have investigated the factors associated with PA at 6 months after TKA by objectively measuring preoperative and postoperative PA intensity using an accelerometer and knee function using a goniometer and dynamometer. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with PA levels at 6 months after TKA based on objective data. METHODS Eighty-two patients (mean [SD] age 74.5 [6.4] years) with moderate-to-severe knee osteoarthritis (OA) who were scheduled for TKA at the Nagoya Orthopaedic and Joint Replacement Clinic from July 2018 to July 2019 were enrolled in this longitudinal study. All patients underwent evaluations of knee function, including range-of-motion and knee-extension muscle strength; knee pain; performance in the timed up-and-go test; and accelerometer-measured PA both preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively. Factors associated with PA at 6 months after TKA were assessed using a hierarchical multiple linear regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, and presence of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS A higher average daily step count at 6 months after TKA was significantly associated with greater preoperative knee-extension muscle strength on the operated side (β = 0.155, p = 0.028) as well as a higher preoperative average daily step count (β = 0.834, p < 0.001). Furthermore, average daily time spent in moderate-to-vigorous-intensity PA postoperatively was significantly associated only with time spent in moderate-to-vigorous-intensity PA preoperatively (β = 0.723, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION These findings indicate that a higher preoperative daily step count and greater preoperative knee-extension muscle strength on the operated side may be associated with a higher daily step count at 6 months after TKA. Factors associated with PA differed by the PA intensity level. Rehabilitation and interventions for psychosocial factors before TKA beginning when mild knee OA first occurs are expected to lead to increased PA in TKA patients.

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
BACKGROUND Chronic pain is a major challenge for some people after total knee replacement (TKR). The changing impact of this complication during the first post-operative year remains unclear. This analysis aimed to examine how physical activity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) evolved over the first year after TKR for patients with and without post-operative chronic knee pain. METHODS We conducted a secondary analysis of data from a randomised controlled trial (PEP-TALK), which tested the effectiveness of a behaviour change physiotherapy intervention compared with usual rehabilitation after TKR. Mean UCLA Activity Score and EQ-5D-5L for participants with and without chronic knee pain (14 points or lower in the Oxford Knee Score Pain Subscale (OKS-PS) at six months post-TKR) were compared at six and 12 months post-TKR. RESULTS Data from 83 participants were analysed. For those with chronic knee pain, UCLA Activity Score remained unchanged between baseline to six months (mean: 3.8 to 3.8), decreasing at 12 months (3.0). Those without post-operative chronic knee pain reported improved physical activity from baseline to six months (4.0 vs 4.9), plateauing at 12 months (4.9). Participants with chronic knee pain reported lower baseline HRQoL (0.28 vs 0.48). Both groups improved health utility over one year. Of those without chronic pain at six months, 8.5% returned to chronic pain by 12 months. CONCLUSIONS Monitoring clinical outcomes after six months may be indicated for those at risk of chronic pain post-TKR. Further, sufficiently powered analyses are warranted to increase the generalisability of this exploratory analyses' results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly being used to assess the effectiveness of elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, little is known about how PROMs scores change over time in these patients. The aim of this study was to identify the trajectories of quality of life and joint functioning, and their associated demographic and clinical features in patients undergoing elective TKA. METHODS A prospective, cohort study was conducted, in which PROMs questionnaires (Euro Quality 5 Dimensions 3L, EQ-5D-3L, and Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Patient Satisfaction, KOOS-PS) were administered to patients at a single center undergoing elective TKA before surgery, and at 6 and 12 months after surgery. Latent class growth mixture models were used to analyze the patterns of change in PROMs scores over time. Multinomial logistic regression was used to investigate the association between patient characteristics and PROMs trajectories. RESULTS A total of 564 patients were included in the study. The analysis highlighted differential patterns of improvement after TKA. Three distinct PROMs trajectories were identified for each PROMs questionnaire, with one trajectory indicating the most favorable outcome. Female gender appears to be associated with a presentation to surgery with worse perceived quality of life and joint function than males, but also more rapid improvement after surgery. Having an ASA score greater than 3 is instead associated with a worse functional recovery after TKA. CONCLUSION The results suggest three main PROMs trajectories in patients undergoing elective TKA. Most patients reported improved quality of life and joint functioning at 6 months, which then stabilized. However, other subgroups showed more varied trajectories. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and to explore the potential clinical implications of these results.

Abstract
Assessment and management of postoperative pain after hospital discharge is very challenging. We conducted a systematic review to synthesize available evidence on the prevalence of moderate-to-severe postoperative pain within the first 1 to 14 days after hospital discharge. The previously published protocol for this review was registered in PROSPERO. MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched until November 2020. We included observational postsurgical pain studies in the posthospital discharge setting. The primary outcome for the review was the proportion of study participants with moderate-to-severe postoperative pain (eg, pain score of 4 or more on a 10-point Numerical Rating Scale) within the first 1 to 14 days after hospital discharge. This review included 27 eligible studies involving a total of 22,108 participants having undergone a wide variety of surgical procedures. The 27 studies included ambulatory surgeries (n = 19), inpatient surgeries (n = 1), both ambulatory and inpatient surgeries (n = 4), or was not specified (n = 3). Meta-analyses of combinable studies provided estimates of pooled prevalence rates of moderate-to-severe postoperative pain ranging from 31% 1 day after discharge to 58% 1 to 2 weeks after discharge. These findings suggest that moderate-to-severe postoperative pain is a common occurrence after hospital discharge and highlight the importance of future efforts to more effectively evaluate, prevent, and treat postsurgical pain in patients discharged from the hospital.

Abstract
This study investigates whether primary knee arthroplasty (KA) restores health-related quality of life (HRQoL) to levels expected in the general population. This retrospective case-control study compared HRQoL data from two sources: patients undergoing primary KA in a university-teaching hospital (2013 to 2019), and the Health Survey for England (HSE; 2010 to 2012). Patient-level data from the HSE were used to represent the general population. Propensity score matching was used to balance covariates and facilitate group comparisons. A propensity score was estimated using logistic regression based upon the covariates sex, age, and BMI. Two matched cohorts with 3,029 patients each were obtained for the adjusted analyses (median age 70.3 (interquartile range (IQR) 64 to 77); number of female patients 3,233 (53.4%); median BMI 29.7 kg/m2 (IQR 26.5 to 33.7)). HRQoL was measured using the three-level version of the EuroQol five-dimension questionnaire (EQ-5D-3L), and summarized using the Index and EuroQol visual analogue scale (EQ-VAS) scores. Patients awaiting KA had significantly lower EQ-5D-3L Index scores than the general population (median 0.620 (IQR 0.16 to 0.69) vs median 0.796 (IQR 0.69 to 1.00); p < 0.001). By one year postoperatively, the median EQ-5D-3L Index score improved significantly in the KA cohort (mean change 0.32 (SD 0.33); p < 0.001), and demonstrated no clinically relevant differences when compared to the general population (median 0.796 (IQR 0.69 to 1.00) vs median 0.796 (IQR 0.69 to 1.00)). Compared to the general population cohort, the postoperative EQ-VAS was significantly higher in the KA cohort (p < 0.001). Subgroup comparisons demonstrated that older age groups had statistically better EQ-VAS scores than matched peers in the general population. Patients awaiting KA for osteoarthritis had significantly poorer HRQoL than the general population. However, within one year of surgery, primary KA restored HRQoL to levels expected for the patient's age-, BMI-, and sex-matched peers.

Abstract
Recent publications have drawn attention to the fact that some brands of joint replacement may contain variants which perform significantly worse (or better) than their 'siblings'. As a result, the National Joint Registry has performed much more detailed analysis on the larger families of knee arthroplasties in order to identify exactly where these differences may be present and may hitherto have remained hidden. The analysis of the Nexgen knee arthroplasty brand identified that some posterior-stabilized combinations have particularly high revision rates for aseptic loosening of the tibia, and consequently a medical device recall has been issued for the Nexgen 'option' tibial component which was implicated. More elaborate signal detection is required in order to identify such variation in results in a routine fashion if patients are to be protected from such variation in outcomes between closely related implant types.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To clarify the interactive combinations of various clinical factors associated with physical activity (PA) at 2 years after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using classification and regression tree (CART) analysis. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study. SETTING A single university hospital. PARTICIPANTS 286 patients who underwent TKA (N=286). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES PA was assessed preoperatively, 3 weeks, and 2 years after TKA. Physical functions, namely, 10 m walking test (10MWT), timed Up and Go test, 1-leg standing time, isometric knee extension and flexion strength, knee joint stability, knee pain, femora-tibial angle, and the passive knee extension and flexion angle, were measured before surgery as a baseline and 3 weeks after TKA as acute phase. CART analysis was conducted to clarify the interactive combinations that accurately predict the PA at 2 years after TKA. RESULTS The results of CART analysis indicated that gait speed (≥1.05 m/s) at the acute phase after TKA was the primal predictor for the postoperative PA at 2 years. The highest postoperative PA at 2 years was determined by gait speed (≥1.05 m/s) and PA (>74.5) at the acute phase. The PA at baseline and at acute phase, as well as the body mass index were also selected as predictors of postoperative PA at 2 years. CONCLUSION The present study suggested that acquiring gait speed (≥1.05 m/s) and PA (>74.5) in the postoperative acute phase is the predictive of a high PA at 2 years after TKA.

Abstract
The burden of osteoarthritis (OA) has increased steadily due to an aging population, increasing life expectancy, obesity and lifestyle factors. Total hip replacement has become one of the most prevalent and successful operations globally and it is projected that demand will continue to grow as the incidence of OA continues to increase. Patients undergoing the operation expect much-improved function and pain relief but also increasingly need to return to work postoperatively, especially given the growing demand for the procedure and the encouragement of older people to continue working by most governments in the developed world. This review provides an overview of function and employment outcomes after hip arthroplasty. Despite the generally good success rate, some patients do not attain good functional outcomes and it is important that we develop ways to identify these patients preoperatively. We describe the effect of demographic, clinical and other factors on functional outcomes, as well as trajectories of physical function and pain recovery beyond the first few weeks after total hip replacement. Regarding employment outcomes, many people in work preoperatively are likely to resume to work after recovery; however, patients feel that they lack guidance from clinicians about returning to work postoperatively. Our review encompasses factors associated with return to work, timing of return to work, and potential temporary or permanent limitations that people might experience at work depending on type of employment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop clinical prediction rule (CPR) of physical activity at 1-year after total hip arthroplasty (THA). DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING University hospital with orthopedic surgery. PARTICIPANTS The study group included 321 patients (56 men) who underwent primary THA. INTERVENTION Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES The data collected included age, body mass index, clinical score from the questionnaires, hip pain, range of motion, muscle strength, and Physical functions (10-Meter Walk Test, Timed Up and Go test and Sit-to-stand). Patients were classified into sufficient and insufficient activity groups based on their University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) activity score 1 year after THA. Variables measured preoperatively and at 3 weeks postoperatively were analyzed using univariate and multivariate methods to derive CPR for physical activity. RESULTS A CPR was developed using the following five factors and cut-offs: age, ≤70.5 years; preoperative UCLA activity score, ≥3.5; preoperative hip abduction strength, ≥0.54 Nm/kg; preoperative knee extension strength, ≥1.04 Nm/kg; and 10-Meter Walk Test, ≤8.49 s at 3 weeks after surgery. The presence of four of the five factors predicted a sufficient physical activity level at 1-year, with a positive likelihood ratio of 5.94 and probability of 85.4%. The presence of five predictor variables increased the probability of sufficient physical activity after THA to 94.7%. CONCLUSION This study developed a CPR for physical activity at 1-year after THA. Having four or more of the five measurements were useful indicators for predicting of physical activity at 1 year postoperatively.

[PMID: 35329975 PMCID: PMC8955143 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11061649] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Total hip replacement (THR) is a common and cost-effective procedure for end-stage osteoarthritis, but inappropriate utilization may be devaluing its true impact. The purpose of this study was to develop and test the internal validity of a prognostic algorithm for predicting the probability of non-response to THR surgery at 1 year. Methods: Analysis of outcome data extracted from an institutional registry of individuals (N = 2177) following elective THR performed between January 2012 and December 2019. OMERACT-OARSI responder criteria were applied to Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) pain and function scores at pre- and 1 year post-THR, to determine non-response to surgery. Independent prognostic correlates of post-operative non-response observed in adjusted modelling were then used to develop a nomogram. Results: A total of 194 (8.9%) cases were deemed non-responders to THR. The degree of contribution (OR, 95% CI) of each explanatory factor to non-response on the nomogram was, morbid obesity (1.88, 1.16, 3.05), Kellgren−Lawrence grade <4 (1.89, 1.39, 2.56), WOMAC Global rating per 10 units (0.86, 0.79, 0.94) and the following co-morbidities: cerebrovascular disease (2.39, 1.33, 4.30), chronic pulmonary disease (1.64; 1.00, 2.71), connective tissue disease (1.99, 1.17, 3.39), diabetes (1.86, 1.26, 2.75) and liver disease (2.28, 0.99, 5.27). The concordance index for the nomogram was 0.70. Conclusion: We have developed a prognostic nomogram to calculate the probability of non-response to THR surgery. In doing so, we determined that both the probability of and predictive prognostic factors for non-response to THR differed from a previously developed nomogram for total knee replacement (TKR), confirming the benefit of designing decision support tools that are both condition and surgery site specific. Future external validation of the nomogram is required to confirm its generalisability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify patients at risk of mid-late term revision of hip replacement to inform targeted follow-up. DESIGN Analysis of linked national data sets from primary and secondary care (Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD-GOLD); National Joint Registry (NJR); English Hospital Episode Statistics (HES); Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs)). PARTICIPANTS Primary elective total hip replacement (THR) aged≥18. EVENT OF INTEREST Revision surgery≥5 years (mid-late term) after primary THR. STATISTICAL METHODS Cox regression modelling to ascertain risk factors of mid-late term revision. HR and 95% CI assessed association of sociodemographic factors, comorbidities, medication, surgical variables and PROMs with mid-late term revision. RESULTS NJR-HES-PROMs data were available from 2008 to 2011 on 142 275 THR; mean age 70.0 years and 61.9% female. CPRD GOLD-HES data covered 1995-2011 on 17 047 THR; mean age 68.4 years, 61.8% female. Patients had minimum 5 years postprimary surgery to end 2016. In NJR-HES-PROMS data, there were 3582 (2.5%) revisions, median time-to-revision after primary surgery 1.9 years (range 0.01-8.7), with 598 (0.4%) mid-late term revisions; in CPRD GOLD, 982 (5.8%) revisions, median time-to-revision 5.3 years (range 0-20), with 520 (3.1%) mid-late term revisions.Reduced risk of mid-late term revision was associated with older age at primary surgery (HR: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.95 to 0.96); better 6-month postoperative pain/function scores (HR: 0.35; 95% CI: 0.27 to 0.46); use of ceramic-on-ceramic (HR: 0.73; 95% CI: 0.56 to 0.95) or ceramic-on-polyethylene (HR: 0.76; 95% CI: 0.58 to 1.00) bearing surfaces.Increased risk of mid-late term revision was associated with the use of antidepressants (HR: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.09 to 1.59), glucocorticoid injections (HR: 1.33; 95% CI: 1.06 to 1.67) and femoral head size≥44 mm (HR: 2.56; 95% CI: 1.09 to 6.02)No association of gender, obesity or Index of Multiple Deprivation was observed. CONCLUSION The risk of mid-late term THR is associated with age at primary surgery, 6-month postoperative pain and function and implant factors. Further work is needed to explore the associations with prescription medications observed in our data.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To create estimates for clinically meaningful changes and differences in pain and joint function for the Oxford Hip and Knee Scores (OHS/OKS) in primary and revision joint replacement. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING 694,487 primary and revision joint replacement procedures were analysed from the NHS PROMs dataset between 2012-2020. Minimal important changes (MIC) and differences (MID) were calculated using distribution and anchor-based methods (including receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve and predictive-modelling techniques). RESULTS For comparison of two or more groups (such as in a clinic trial), MID estimates were ∼5 points. For cohort studies investigating changes over time in a single group of patients, MICgroup estimates were 12.4 points (primary hip replacement), 8.6 points (revision hip replacement), 10.5 points (primary knee replacement) and 9.4 points (revision knee replacement). For studies investigating changes over time at the individual patient level, MICadjusted estimates were ∼8 points, ∼6 points, ∼7 points and ∼6 points respectively. CONCLUSION This study has calculated contemporary estimates of clinically important changes and differences for the OHS/OKS for primary and revision hip and knee replacement. These estimates can be used to inform sample size calculations and to interpret changes in joint function over time and differences between groups.
