J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00633-8. [PMID: 38959987 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.06.033] [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: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS JR) is a widely used patient-reported outcome measures questionnaire for total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, not all patients choose to complete HOOS JR, and thus, a subset of the THA population may be underrepresented. This study aims to investigate the association between patient demographic factors and HOOS JR response rates. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of adult, English-speaking patients who underwent primary THA by a fellowship-trained arthroplasty surgeon between 2017 and 2023 at a single, high-volume academic institution. The HOOS JR completion status-complete or incomplete-was recorded for each patient within 90 days of surgery. Standard statistical analyses were performed to assess completion against multiple patient demographic factors. RESULTS Of the 2,908 total patients, 2,112 (72.6%) had complete and 796 (27.4%) had incomplete HOOS JR questionnaires. Multivariate analysis yielded statistical significance (P < .05) for the distribution of patient age, race, insurance, marital status, and income quartile with respect to questionnaire completion. Patient sex or religion did not affect response rates. Failure to complete HOOS JR (all P < .001) was associated with patients aged 18 to 39 (59.8%), who identified as Black (36.4%) or "other" race (39.6%), were never married (38%), and were in the lower half income quartiles (43.9%, 35.9%) when compared to the overall incomplete rate. CONCLUSIONS Multiple patient demographic factors may affect the HOOS JR response rate. Overall, our analyses suggest that older patients who identify as White and are of higher socioeconomic status are more likely to participate in the questionnaire. Efforts should focus on capturing patient groups less likely to participate to elucidate more generalizable trends in arthroplasty outcomes.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Is Associated With Increased Emergency Department Services and Similar Rates of Opioid Prescriptions Following Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Propensity Matched Analysis. J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00228-6. [PMID: 38492824 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.03.012] [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: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a paucity of literature regarding patients who have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to compare the rates of postoperative complications, prescriptions, health care utilization, and revision arthroplasty of patients who had PTSD undergoing primary THA against a propensity matched control group of patients who did not have PTSD (NPTSD). METHODS The TriNetX database was queried to identify PTSD patients undergoing primary THA. Patients were then propensity matched in a 1:1 ratio based on twelve preoperative characteristics to a cohort of NPTSD patients. Postoperative prescriptions and rates of health care utilization were analyzed within 5 days, 14 days, and 1 month postoperatively. Complications were analyzed within one month. Revision arthroplasty rates were analyzed within 1 year and 2 years. RESULTS A total of 198,560 patients undergoing primary THA were identified. Ultimately, 1,310 PTSD patients were successfully propensity matched to a cohort of 1,310 NPTSD patients. Patients who have PTSD presented to the emergency department at significantly higher rates than NPTSD patients within 14 days and 1 month postoperatively. Within 1 month postoperatively, cohorts were prescribed opioid analgesics at similar rates (P = .709). Patients who had PTSD received more prescriptions per patient compared to NPTSD patients. Patients who had PTSD were also found to have a higher number of total complications per person within 1 month (P = .022). Within 2 years postoperatively, rates of revision hip arthroplasty were comparable between cohorts (P = .912). CONCLUSIONS Patients who have PTSD experience similar rates of revision hip arthroplasty and opioid prescribing compared to NPTSD patients following primary THA; however, within 1 month postoperatively, emergency department visits were greater in PTSD patients. These findings can help delineate early postoperative education and expectations for patients who have PTSD in contrast to other psychiatric diagnoses.

Abstract
Post-traumatic hip arthritis presents a challenging condition characterized by degenerative changes in the hip joint following traumatic injury. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a cornerstone in managing this condition, offering significant pain relief, functional improvement, and enhanced quality of life. This comprehensive review aims to synthesize existing literature to elucidate the outcomes of THA in post-traumatic hip arthritis, exploring factors influencing surgical success and identifying areas for further research. Key findings reveal favourable clinical outcomes associated with THA, though considerations such as patient characteristics, surgical techniques, and implant selection impact outcomes. Implications for clinical practice underscore the importance of tailored preoperative assessment and ongoing advancements in surgical approaches and implant technology. Furthermore, opportunities for future research lie in long-term durability studies, patient-reported outcomes assessment, and exploration of innovative surgical techniques. Overall, THA emerges as a promising intervention for post-traumatic hip arthritis, yet continual refinement through research and innovation remains imperative to optimize patient care in this population.

Abstract
Background Total hip arthroplasties (THA) are cost-effective interventions for patients with osteoarthritis refractory to physical therapy or medical management. Most individuals report positive surgical outcomes with reduction in pain and improved joint function. Multiple recent studies demonstrated the influence of patient mental health on surgical success. We sought to determine the relationship between patient preoperative psychological factors and postoperative THA outcomes, specifically pain and function. Methods PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Reviews databases were queried using terms “(mental OR psychological OR psychiatric) AND (function OR trait OR state OR predictor OR health) AND (outcome OR success OR recovery OR response) AND total joint arthroplasty).” A total of 21 of 1,286 studies fulfilled inclusion criteria and were included in the review. All studies were analyzed using GRADE and Risk of Bias criteria. Results Overall, compared to cohorts with a normal psychological status, patients with higher objective measures of preoperative depression and anxiety reported increased postoperative pain, decreased functionality and greater complications following THA. Additionally, participants with lower self-efficacy or somatization were found to have worse functional outcomes. Conclusions Preoperative depression, anxiety and somatization may negatively impact patient reported postoperative pain, functionality and complications following THA. Surgeons should consider preoperative psychological status when counseling patients regarding expected surgical outcomes. Level of evidence 3.

Association Between the Amount of Limb Lengthening and Hip Range of Motion After Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2022; 30:e599-e606. [PMID: 35175976 DOI: 10.5435/jaaos-d-21-00374] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS The relationship between prosthetic position and range of motion (ROM) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been rigorously examined. However, the effects of limb lengthening on postoperative hip ROM remain unclarified. We aimed to examine the effect of limb lengthening on hip ROM after THA. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the data from 120 patients who underwent unilateral THA. Univariate and multivariate regression models were used to evaluate the effects of the following patient- and surgery-related covariates on hip flexion ROM at 3, 6, and 12 months after THA: age, sex, body mass index, diagnosis, preoperative University of California Los Angeles activity score, preoperative Oxford Hip Score, preoperative flexion ROM, amount of leg lengthening, cup inclination, and cup anteversion. RESULTS A large preoperative hip flexion ROM was the strongest predictor of a large hip flexion ROM at 12 months after THA (standardized coefficient: 0.519, P < 0.0001). A larger amount of leg lengthening was associated with a smaller postoperative hip flexion ROM (standardized coefficient: -0.159, P = 0.039), and male sex was another predictor of a smaller postoperative hip flexion ROM (standardized coefficient: -0.204, P = 0.014). Cup inclination (P = 0.99) and anteversion (P = 0.18) were not significantly associated with hip flexion ROM at 12 months after THA. DISCUSSION A large amount of limb lengthening was associated with decreased hip flexion ROM after THA. In THA, minimizing the leg length discrepancy is important; however, the postoperative improvement in hip flexion ROM may be limited when a large amount of leg lengthening is needed.

Early postoperative relationship between patient-reported outcome measures and gait biomechanical factors after total hip arthroplasty. Gait Posture 2022; 91:14-18.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) have recently been considered as indicating clinical outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although various factors are reportedly associated with post-THA and PROMs, the relationship with gait parameters, which are objective assessment factors after THA, remains unclear. RESEARCH QUESTION What is the relationship between PROMs and gait biomechanical factors four weeks after THA? METHODS Forty-five patients (six men and 39 women) who underwent THA were included. Three-dimensional gait analysis was performed four weeks post-THA; joint angle, internal moment, and power of the lower extremity at the first and second peaks of the vertical component of the floor reaction force were assessed for the operated side. PROMs were evaluated using the Japanese Orthopedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire (JHEQ). The relationship between the JHEQ score and extracted gait parameters was analyzed using gender and gait speed as control factors. RESULTS For the JHEQ sub-domain, movement was positively correlated with the internal knee extension moment values at the first peak (r = 0.347). There was no significant correlation between JHEQ and the internal hip abduction moment value at the first peak. Mental status was negatively correlated with the hip flexion angle value at the second peak (r = -0.373), and positively correlated with the hip flexion moment value (r = 0.348). Total JHEQ scores and mental status were negatively correlated with the power of hip flexion value at the second peaks, respectively (r = -0.316, -0.444). SIGNIFICANCE The results of this study may provide recovery guidelines to be used as an index for gait assessment in the early post-THA period. Further studies are needed to verify whether gait parameters can improve PROMs in the early post-THA period.

J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9051257. [PMID: 32357497 PMCID: PMC7287730 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9051257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2020] [Revised: 04/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
This study was performed to investigate the relationship between patients’ activity and function levels and the incidence of preoperative deep venous thrombosis (DVT) prior to total hip arthroplasty (THA). We retrospectively reviewed 500 patients admitted for primary or revision THA from July 2014 to October 2018. The diagnosis of DVT was confirmed using Doppler ultrasonography 1 month before THA. The patients’ activity and hip function were evaluated using several clinical scores: the Harris Hip Score (HHS), Oxford Hip Score (OHS), University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) activity score, and visual analog scale (VAS) score. Those scores and the medical history were examined for correlations with preoperative DVT using univariate and multivariate models. Univariate regression analysis showed that older age, current steroid use, anticoagulant use, a history of DVT, collagen disease, a lower UCLA activity score, and a lower OHS were associated with an elevated risk of preoperative DVT. The multivariate analyses showed that a higher UCLA activity score (odds ratio (OR): 0.0049–0.012) and higher OHS (OR: 0.0012–0.0088) were associated with a lower risk of preoperative DVT in each model. Age (OR: 1.07 in both models), current steroid use (OR: 9.32–10.45), and a history of DVT (OR: 27.15–74.98) were associated with a higher risk of preoperative DVT in both models. Older age, current steroid use, a history of DVT, a lower UCLA activity score, and a lower OHS were risk factors for preoperative DVT before THA, even when controlling for potential confounders. Patients exhibiting low activity and low function levels were more likely to have DVT, even before surgery.
