Abstract
BACKGROUND The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) rapidly spreads worldwide and causes more suffering. The relation about the aggravation of inguinal pain and COVID-19 was unclear in patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to evaluate the risk of groin pain aggravation in short-term THA patients after COVID-19. METHODS Between 2020 and 2022, 129 patients with THA who were affected COVID-19 were enrolled. A short-standardized questionnaire was administered during follow-up to inquire about the aggravation of groin ache before and after SARS-COV-2 affection. Furthermore, we evaluated the potential association between the presence of increased pain and various factors, including age, gender, body mass index, diagnosis, and length of hospital stay. RESULTS The case-crossover study revealed an increased risk of inguinal soreness aggravation when comparing 8 weeks after COVID-19 with 12 weeks before COVID-19 (Relative risk [RR], 9.5; 95% Confidence intervals [CI], 2.259-39.954). For COVID-19 positive patients, multivariate analysis showed length of stay was an independent factor significantly associated with increased risk of aggravation of groin pain (Odds ratio [OR], 1.26; 95%CI, 1.03-1.55, p = 0.027). CONCLUSION This study confirms the association between COVID-19 and the exacerbation of soreness in the groin region in THA patients and extended length of stay is a possible contributing factor. This study expands the current literature by investigating the risk of aggravation of inguinal pain in patients with THA after COVID-19, providing valuable insights into postoperative outcomes in this specific population. Trial registration This retrospective study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Shanghai general hospital (No.2023-264).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psychiatric comorbidities have been shown to influence outcomes of various orthopedic pathologies. This study aimed to compare rates of delayed scaphoid union and surgical intervention for fractures in patients with and without comorbid psychiatric diagnoses. METHODS A matched retrospective cohort study was performed using the PearlDiver database to determine the association of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia with delayed union rates within 3 and 6 months and rates of nonacute surgical intervention (fixation or grafting) within 6 and 12 months of scaphoid fracture. Analyses were completed using multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS Among 20 340 patients, a comorbid psychiatric diagnosis was associated with increased rates of delayed scaphoid union at 3 months (odds ratio [OR] = 1.29; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.14-1.45) and 6 months (OR = 1.23; 95% CI, 1.10-1.38). At 3 months, women with any psychiatric disorder (OR = 1.58; 1.29-1.66), depression (OR = 1.68; 1.31-2.17), and schizophrenia (OR = 5.32; 95% CI, 1.06-26.79) were more likely to experience delayed union, with similar results at 6 months. Men with bipolar disorder experienced increased delayed union rates at 6 months (OR = 1.40; 1.03-1.91). A comorbid psychiatric diagnosis (OR = 1.10; 1.01-1.20) was associated with increased rates of surgical intervention, whereas schizophrenia was associated with decreased rates (OR = 0.58; 0.34-0.99). CONCLUSION Patients with comorbid psychiatric conditions experienced increased rates of delayed scaphoid union. These results underscore the importance of understanding factors that may place patients at risk of impaired recovery.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several patient factors affect recovery after total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, the impact of these variables on patient-reported outcome measure recovery curves following THA has not been defined. Our goal was to quantify the influence of multiple variables on recovery after primary THA. METHODS There were 1,724 patients in a multicenter study included. Variables included sex, race/ethnicity, anxiety/depression, body mass index, tobacco, and preoperative opioid use. The Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Score for Joint Replacement (HOOS JR) was recorded at multiple time points. Recovery curves were created using longitudinal estimating equations. RESULTS Patients who were women, obese, or smokers demonstrated lower HOOS JR scores at all time points. Preoperative opioid use was also correlated with lower HOOS JR scores, but this difference diminished after 6 months. Black patients demonstrated lower HOOS JR scores compared to Caucasians, and this relative difference increased out to 1-year postoperatively (P = .018). Hispanics also had lower HOOS JR scores, but scores recovered at similar rates compared to non-Hispanics. Patients who had only anxiety or depression had similar HOOS JR scores compared to patients who did not have anxiety or depression. However, patients who had both anxiety and depression had lower HOOS JR scores compared to patients who had neither (P = .049), and this relative difference became greater at 1-year postoperatively (P = .002). CONCLUSIONS Several factors including race/ethnicity, opioid use, and mental health influence recovery trajectory following THA. This information helps provide more individualized counseling about expectations after THA and focus targeted interventions to improve outcomes in at-risk groups.

Abstract
Concomitant depression negatively impacts outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) surveys are validated measures that quantify depression, pain, and physical function. We hypothesized that higher preoperative PROMIS-depression scores would be associated with inferior outcomes following TKA. A total of 258 patients underwent primary TKA at a tertiary academic center between June 2018 and August 2020. PROMIS scores were collected preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively. Patients with preoperative PROMIS depression scores of 55 or greater were considered PROMIS depressed (PD) and patients with scores less than 55 were considered not PROMIS depressed (ND). The primary outcomes were changes in PROMIS scores. Secondary outcomes included total and daily mean morphine milligram equivalents (MME) received during admission as well as 90-day hospital readmission and 2-year all-cause revision rates. There were 66 (25.58%) patients in the PD group and 192 (74.42%) in the ND group. Patients in the PD group had improved depression scores at all follow-up intervals (P<.001) and decreased pain scores at 1 year (P=.016). Both groups experienced similar changes in function scores at each follow-up interval. Patients in the PD group had higher total (P=.176) and daily (P=.433) mean MME use while admitted. Ninety-day hospital readmissions were higher in the PD group (P=.002). There were no differences in 2-year revision rates (P=.648). Preoperative PROMIS-depression scores of 55 or greater do not negatively impact postoperative function, depression, or pain, and patients with these scores have greater improvement in depression and pain at certain intervals. Patients in the PD group had higher readmission rates. [Orthopedics. 2024;47(1):40-45.].

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Numbers of total hip arthroplasty (THA) are steadily rising and patients expect faster mobility without pain postoperatively. The aim of enhanced recovery after Surgery (ERAS) programs in a multidisciplinary setup was to keep pace with the needs of quality and quantity of surgical THA-interventions and patients' expectations. METHODS 194 patients undergoing THA procedures were investigated after single-blinded randomization to ERAS (98) or conventional setup group (96). Primary outcome variable was mobilization measured with the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) in seconds. Secondary outcome variables were floor count and walking distance in meters as well as rest, mobilization and night pain on a numerous rating scale (NRS). All variables were recorded preoperatively and daily until the sixth postoperative day. To assess and compare clinical outcome and patient satisfaction, the PPP33-Score and PROMs were used. RESULTS No complications such as thromboembolic complications, fractures or revisions were recorded within the first week postoperatively in either study group. Compared to the conventional group, the ERAS group showed significantly better TUG (p < 0.050) and walking distance results after surgery up to the sixth, and floor count up to the third postoperative day. On the first and second postoperative day, ERAS patients showed superior results (p < 0.001) in all independent activity subitems. Regarding the evaluation of pain (NRS), PPP33 and PROMS, no significant difference was shown (p > 0.050). CONCLUSION This prospective single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial was able to demonstrate excellent outcome with comparable pain after ERAS THA versus a conventional setup. Therefore, ERAS could be used in daily clinical practice.

What is the association between gender and self-perceived health status when controlling for disease-specific conditions? A retrospective data analysis of pre- and post-operative EQ-5D-5L differences in total hip and knee arthroplasty. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:914. [PMID: 38012614 PMCID: PMC10680301 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-07026-0] [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: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The self-perceived health status of patients undergoing total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA) might differ post-operatively due to gender, age, or comorbidities. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) such as the EQ-5D-5L measure the self-perceived health status. This study investigates whether the index score of the EQ-5D-5L is a valid tool for interpreting gender differences in outcomes for patients undergoing THA and TKA. METHODS Routine and PROM-data of elective primary THA or TKA patients in two German hospitals between 2016 and 2018 were analyzed. Univariate analysis with Pearson's chi-square was conducted to identify control variables for gender. To quantify the association between gender and the EQ-5D-5L dimensions, a cumulative odds ordinal logistic regression with proportional odds was conducted. RESULTS Two thousand three hundred sixty-eight THA patients (m = 978; f = 1390) and 1629 TKA patients (m = 715; f = 914) were considered. The regression analysis of the individual EQ-5D-5L dimensions showed that female gender was significantly associated with better self-care (THA and TKA) and better post-operative mobility (THA). In contrast, male gender was significantly associated with less pain/discomfort (TKA) and less anxiety/depression (THA) pre-surgery and 3-months post-surgery. CONCLUSION Our results confirmed that the self-perceived health status improved after surgery. However, due to the different associations of gender to the individual dimensions of the EQ-5D-5L, the weighted index score clouds the comparability between patients with different gender undergoing THA or TKA. Therefore, we argue to use the individual five dimensions for health status analysis, to reveal relevant additional information.

Using Presurgical Biopsychosocial Features to Develop an Advanced Clinical Decision-Making Support Tool for Predicting Recovery Trajectories in Patients Undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty: Protocol for a Prospective Observational Study. JMIR Res Protoc 2023; 12:e48801. [PMID: 37556181 PMCID: PMC10448293 DOI: 10.2196/48801] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2023] [Revised: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Following total knee arthroplasty (TKA), 10% to 20% of patients report dissatisfaction with procedural outcomes. There is growing recognition that postsurgical satisfaction is shaped not only by the quality of surgery but also by psychological and social factors. Surprisingly, information on the psychological and social determinants of surgical outcomes is rarely collected before surgery. A comprehensive collection of biopsychosocial information could assist clinicians in making recommendations in relation to rehabilitation, particularly if there is robust evidence to support the ability of presurgical constructs to predict postsurgical outcomes. Clinical decision support tools can help identify factors influencing patient outcomes and support the provision of interventions or services that can be tailored to meet individuals' needs. However, despite their potential clinical benefit, the application of such tools remains limited. OBJECTIVE This study aims to develop a clinical decision tool that will assist with patient stratification and more precisely targeted clinical decision-making regarding prehabilitation and rehabilitation for TKA, based on the identified individual biopsychosocial needs. METHODS In this prospective observational study, all participants provided written or electronic consent before study commencement. Patient-completed questionnaires captured information related to a broad range of biopsychosocial parameters during the month preceding TKA. These included demographic factors (sex, age, and rurality), psychological factors (mood status, pain catastrophizing, resilience, and committed action), quality of life, social support, lifestyle factors, and knee symptoms. Physical measures assessing mobility, balance, and functional lower body strength were performed via video calls with patients in their home. Information related to preexisting health issues and concomitant medications was derived from hospital medical records. Patient recovery outcomes were assessed 3 months after the surgical procedure and included quality of life, patient-reported knee symptoms, satisfaction with the surgical procedure, and mood status. Machine learning data analysis techniques will be applied to determine which presurgery parameters have the strongest power for predicting patient recovery following total knee replacement. On the basis of these analyses, a predictive model will be developed. Predictive models will undergo internal validation, and Bayesian analysis will be applied to provide additional metrics regarding prediction accuracy. RESULTS Patient recruitment and data collection commenced in November 2019 and was completed in June 2022. A total of 1050 patients who underwent TKA were enrolled in this study. CONCLUSIONS Our findings will facilitate the development of the first comprehensive biopsychosocial prediction tool, which has the potential to objectively predict a patient's individual recovery outcomes following TKA once selected by an orthopedic surgeon to undergo TKA. If successful, the tool could also inform the evolution rehabilitation services, such that factors in addition to physical performance can be addressed and have the potential to further enhance patient recovery and satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improvements in psychological factors are strongly associated with increased physical activity in the general population. The effects of depression, anxiety, and pain catastrophizing on activity level have not been thoroughly explored in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). Mental health markedly influences patient perspectives on treatment success and quality of life. We hypothesized that improvements in screenings for depression, anxiety, and catastrophizing correlate with improvements in activity levels after THA. METHODS Two hundred ninety two patients (313 hips) who underwent THA with a minimum 1-year (mean 615 ± 270 days) follow-up completed preoperative and postoperative surveys containing the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) Activity Score, Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS). Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were performed between preoperative and postoperative times for outcome measures. Partial Spearman's rank-order correlations were performed between the change in UCLA Score and the change in HADS, PCS, and DASS. RESULTS There were significant improvements in UCLA Score (P value < .0001) and every subscale of PCS, HADS, and DASS (P values < .0001). Significant negative correlations existed between change in UCLA Score and change in HADS-anxiety (rs = -0.21, P value < .001), change in HADS-depression (rs = -0.23, P value < .001), and change in DASS-anxiety (rs = -0.22, P value = .004) following THA. Weaker significant negative correlations existed between change in UCLA Score and change in the remaining PCS (P values = .006) and DASS-depression(P value = .037) subscales. CONCLUSION Improvements in patient-reported depression, anxiety, and pain catastrophizing screenings following THA were associated with increased activity levels. Patients who were screened for catastrophizing, depression, and anxiety achieved statistically and clinically meaningful improvements in symptoms following THA. Addressing patient mental health provides another avenue for holistic care of THA patients.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11237204. [PMID: 36498779 PMCID: PMC9741301 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11237204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Joint replacement surgeries have been known to be some of the most painful surgical procedures. Therefore, the options for postoperative pain management are of great importance for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Despite successful surgery, up to 30% of the patients are not satisfied after the operation. The aim of this study is to assess pain development within the first 4 weeks after TKA in order to gain a better understanding and detect possible influencing factors. METHODS A total of 103 patients were included in this prospective cohort study. Postoperative pain was indicated using a numeric rating scale (NRS). Furthermore, demographic data and perioperative parameters were correlated with the reported postoperative pain. RESULTS The evaluation of postoperative pain scores showed a constant decrease in the first postoperative week (mean NRS score of 5.8 on day 1 to a mean NRS score of 4.6 on day 8). On day 9, the pain increased again. Thereafter, a continuous decrease in pain intensity from day 10 on was noted (continuous to a mean NRS score of 3.0 on day 29). A significant association was found between postoperative pain intensity and gender, body mass index (BMI), and preoperative leg axis. CONCLUSIONS The increasing pain score after the first postoperative week is most likely due to more intensive mobilization and physiotherapy in the rehabilitation department. Patients that were female, had a low BMI, and a preoperative valgus leg axis showed a significantly higher postoperative pain scores. Pain management should consider these results in the future to improve patient satisfaction in the postoperative course after TKA.

Abstract
Aims The primary aim of our study was to assess the influence of age on hip-specific outcome following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Secondary aims were to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and level of activity according to age. Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted. All patients were fitted with an Exeter stem with a 32 mm head on highly cross-linked polyethylene (X3RimFit) cemented acetabulum. Patients were recruited into three age groups: < 65 years, 65 to 74 years, and ≥ 75 years, and assessed preoperatively and at three, 12, 24, and 60 months postoperatively. Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Harris Hip Score (HHS), and Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), were used to assess hip-specific outcome. EuroQol five-dimension five-level questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) scores were used to assess HRQoL. The Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS) and Timed Up and Go (TUG) were used to assess level of activity. Results There were no significant (p > 0.05) differences in the WOMAC scores, HSS, HOOS, or EQ-5D-5L at any postoperative timepoint between the age groups. Patients aged ≥ 75 years had significantly lower physical function (p ≤ 0.010) and physical role (p ≤ 0.047) SF-36 scores at 12, 24, and 60 months, but were equal to that expect of an age-matched population. No differences according to age were observed for the other six domains of the SF-36 (p > 0.060). The ≥ 75 years group had a lower LEAS (p < 0.001) and longer TUG test times (p ≤ 0.032) compared to the < 65 years group, but older age groups had significant (p < 0.001) improvement relative to their preoperative baseline measures. Conclusion Age did not influence postoperative hip-specific outcome or HRQoL (according to the EQ-5D) following THA. Despite a significant improvement, older patients had lower postoperative activity levels compared to younger patients, but this may be reflective of the overall physical effect of ageing.

Influence of Depression and Sleep Quality on Postoperative Outcomes after Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Prospective Study. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11133845. [PMID: 35807130 PMCID: PMC9267204 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11133845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/26/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The trend of Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is projected to grow. Therefore, it has become imperative to find new measures to improve the outcomes of THA. Several studies have focused attention on the influence of psychological factors and sleep quality on surgical outcomes. The consequences of depressive states may affect outcomes and also interfere with rehabilitation. In addition, sleep quality may be an essential factor in determining surgical outcomes. To our knowledge, few articles focus on the influence of these factors on THA results. The present study investigates a possible correlation between preoperative depression or sleep quality and postoperative outcomes of THA. This study was conducted with 61 consecutive patients undergoing THA from January 2020 to January 2021. Patients were assessed preoperatively using GDS and PSQI, and six months postoperatively using FJS-12, SF-36, WOMAC, PSQI, and GDS. To simplify comparisons, the overall scores were normalized to range from 0 (worst condition) to 100 points (best condition). A total of 37 patients (60.7%) were classified as depressed and 24 as not depressed (39.3 %) in the preoperative assessment. A low–moderate positive correlation between preoperative GDS score and FJS-12 (rho = 0.22, p = 0.011), SF-36-PCS (rho = 0.328, p = 0.01), and SF-36-MCS (rho = 0.293, p = 0.022) scores at six-month follow-up was found. When the normalized preoperative GDS score was high (no depression), the FJS-12, SF-36-PCS, and SF-36-MCS scores tended to increase more compared to the other group. Statistically significant differences between the two groups were found in postoperative FJS-12 (p = 0.001), SF-36-PCS (p = 0.017), and SF-36-MCS scores (p = 0.016). No statistically significant correlation between preoperative PSQI score and postoperative outcome measures was found. Preoperatively depressed patients had a low–moderate positive correlation with postoperative SF-36 and FJS-12 scores. There was no correlation between sleep quality and postoperative outcome measures of THA.
