Increased Age, Operative Time, American Society of Anesthesiologists Classification, Functional Dependency, and Comorbidity Burden Are Risk Factors for Adverse Events After Meniscectomy and Meniscus Repair: 10-Year Analysis of 64,223 Patients. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1848-1855. [PMID: 37967730 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To use the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database to identify risk factors for 30-day adverse events and hospital readmission following isolated and unilateral meniscectomy or meniscus repair. METHODS A retrospective review of the NSQIP database from the years 2012 to 2021 identified all patients undergoing isolated, unilateral meniscectomy or meniscus repair. Multivariable analyses were performed for each procedure to identify patient characteristics associated with any adverse event (AAE) or unplanned hospital readmission within 30 days of surgery. RESULTS From 2012 to 2021, 59,450 (93%) patients underwent meniscectomy, and 4,773 (7%) patients underwent meniscus repair. Overall adverse event rate was 0.95% after meniscectomy and 1.40% after repair. Risk factors for AAE after meniscectomy included increased age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.010; P = .009), increased operative time (OR = 1.003; P = 0.011), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class IV (OR = 2.048; P = .045), functional dependency (OR = 3.527; P = .001), and current smoking (OR = 1.308; P = .018). Risk factors for AAE after meniscus repair included age (OR = 1.024; P = .016), operative time (OR = 1.004; P = .038), and bleeding disorders (OR = 7.000; P = .014). ASA class III increased risk of hospital readmission after both procedures (OR = 1.906; P = .008; OR = 4.101; P = .038), and medical comorbidities of heart failure (OR = 3.924; P = .016), hypertension (OR = 1.412; P = .011), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR = 2.350; P < .001) increased readmission risk after meniscectomy only. CONCLUSIONS Per analysis of the American College of Surgeons (ACS)-NSQIP database, surgical treatment of meniscal tears in the knee has been performed frequently over the past 10 years, with meniscectomies comprising over 90% of cases. Increased age and operative time were associated with a modest risk of adverse events after both meniscectomy and meniscus repair. Increased comorbidity burden, evidenced by ASA class, dependent functional status, current smoking, and systemic medical conditions, such as heart failure, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bleeding disorders, greatly increased rates of unfavorable outcomes within 30 days of meniscus surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective prognostic comparative investigation.

Abstract
Perioperative management of orthopaedic patients with a hematologic disorder is a complex endeavor that requires a multidisciplinary team-based approach. A team composed of an experienced orthopaedic surgeon, an anesthesiologist, and a hematologist is necessary to achieve optimal outcomes. Patients with hemophilia and other complex hematologic disorders should be managed at, or in consultation with a hematologist at, a comprehensive hemophilia center. Bleeding disorders and inherited thrombophilia present unique challenges for the perioperative management of orthopaedic surgery. Comprehensive preoperative planning and familiarity with treatment guidelines can help to minimize these risks.
Knowledge of the disease processes outlined in this article will provide orthopaedic surgeons with the requisite background knowledge that is needed to initiate safe and effective treatment strategies involving this high-risk patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the prevalence of chronic liver disease continues to rise in the United States, understanding the effects of liver dysfunction on surgical outcomes has become increasingly important. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of chronic liver disease on 30-day complications following adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of 2337 patients in the 2008-2015 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database who underwent corrective ASD surgery. Patients with liver disease were identified based on a Model for End-Stage Liver Disease-Na score ≥10. A univariate analysis was performed to compare 30-day postoperative complications between patients with and without liver disease. A multivariate regression analysis adjusting for differences in baseline patient characteristics was performed to identify complications that were associated with liver disease. RESULTS Patients with liver disease had a significantly greater incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (6.3% vs. 2.9%; P < 0.001), blood transfusion (34.6% vs. 24.0%; P < 0.001), sepsis (2.2% vs. 0.9%; P = 0.011), prolonged hospitalization (19.0% vs. 8.0%; P < 0.001), as well as any 30-day complication (45.4% vs. 29.4%; P < 0.001). The multivariate regression analysis identified liver disease as a risk factor for prolonged hospitalization (odds ratio [OR] 2.16; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.64-2.84; P < 0.001), pulmonary complications (OR 1.78; 95% CI 1.16-2.74; P = 0.009), blood transfusion (OR 1.67; 95% CI 1.36-2.05; P < 0.001), and any 30-day complication (OR 1.43; 95% CI 1.15-1.77; P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The multisystem pathophysiology of liver dysfunction predisposes patients to postoperative complications following ASD surgery. A multidisciplinary approach in surgical planning and preoperative optimization is needed to minimize liver disease-related complications and improve patient outcomes.

Perioperative coagulation assessment of patients undergoing major elective orthopedic surgery. Intern Emerg Med 2016; 11:793-801.

Abstract
Traditional coagulative parameters are of limited use in identifying perioperative coagulopathy occurring in patients undergoing major elective orthopedic surgery (MEOS). The aim of our study was to evaluate the coagulation changes in patients undergoing MEOS and to facilitate an early detection of perioperative coagulopathy in patients experiencing major intraoperative bleeding. We enrolled 40 consecutive patients (M/F 10/30, age range 34-90 years) who underwent MEOS at the Orthopedic Unit of the Padua University Hospital, Italy, between January 2014 and January 2015. Blood samples were obtained at the following time points: T0-pre: 30 min before surgery; T0-post: 30 min after the end of the procedure; T1: morning of the first postoperative day; T2: 7 ± 2 days after surgery. Patients who experienced an intraoperative blood loss ≥250 mL/h were considered as cases. Routine coagulative parameters, thromboelastometry and thrombin generation (TG) profiles were evaluated. At baseline, a significantly lower platelet count and FIBTEM MCF/AUC were observed in patents with excessive bleeding (p < 0.05 and 0.02/0.01, respectively). At T0-post and T1 intervals, cases showed hypocoagulation characterized by a significantly low platelet count (p = 0.001), prolonged CFT INTEM/EXTEM, reduction of alpha-angle and MaxV INTEM/EXTEM, MCF and AUC INTEM/EXTEM/FIBTEM (p < 0.05 in all comparisons). The only TG parameter standing out between study groups was time to peak at T0-pre. A low platelet count and fibrinogen activity were associated with significant intraoperative bleeding in patients undergoing MEOS. Thromboelastometry performed by ROTEM(®) identifies patients with coagulopathy.

Abstract
Factor XI deficiency is an extremely rare disease presenting no clinical symptoms, unless there is an inducing reason such as trauma or surgery. Normally, factor levels are in the range of 70-150 U dL-1 in healthy subjects. Although no clinical symptoms are seen, only high levels of aPTT can be found. Once a prolongation is detected in aPTT, factor XI deficiency should be suspected and factor levels should be analysed. With careful preoperative preparations in factor-deficient people, preoperative and postoperative complications can be decreased. In this case report, management of anaesthesia during total hip arthroplasty of a patient with factor XI deficiency is presented.

Abstract
Introduction: The management of patients with coagulopathic disorders undergoing orthopaedic surgery requires a dedicated, multi-disciplinary team with detailed perioperative planning. Bernard-Soulier Syndrome (BSS) is an extremely rare disorder, affecting 1 in 1 million individuals worldwide. It is caused by a deficiency in glycoprotein 1b-V-IX which is required for normal platelet-mediated clot formation. The deficiency results in prolonged bleeding time with high risk of spontaneous bleeds. Few reports exist in the clinical literature of BSS patients undergoing major surgery. Case Report: A 40 year old, female with known BSS and developmental dysplasia of her left hip (DDH) was referred to us for consideration of left total hip arthroplasty (THA). Consultation with her Haematologist for pre-operative optimization of platelets and related clotting times together with detailed discussions of her intended anaesthesia protocol and surgery resulted in a successful operation with less than anticipated blood loss. She entered our rehabilitation program just one week after surgery. Conclusion: BSS is an extremely rare bleeding disorder that puts patients at very high risk of blood loss following surgery. This is the first report that we are aware of describing a BSS patient undergoing a THA. A cohesive, highly specialized, multi-disciplinary team is crucial to the success of these patients.
