BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to evaluate postoperative outcomes at minimum 5-year follow-up in patients following unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) compared to a matched cohort of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients.MethodsPatients who had primarily medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA) who met criteria for medial UKA underwent TKA or medial UKA between 2014 and 2015 at a single institution, matched for age, sex, and body mass index. There were 127 UKAs in 120 patients and 118 TKAs in 116 patients included with minimum 5-year follow-up (range, 6 to 8). Mean age was 69 years (range, 59 to 79) and 71 years (range, 62 to 80) in the UKA and TKA groups, respectively (P = .049).ResultsPatients who underwent UKA had significantly higher mean (±SD) Forgotten Joint Scores (87 ± 20 versus 59 ± 34, P < .001); higher Knee Society Scores (88 ± 14 versus 75 ± 21, P < .001); and lower Numeric Pain Rating Scores (0.8 ± 1.6 versus 1.9 ± 2.2, P < .001). Survivorship free from all-cause revision was 96% (95% CI = 93%-99%) and 99% (95% CI = 97%-100%) at 5 years for TKA and UKA, respectively (P = .52). There were 8 both component revisions in the TKA group within 5 years from the date of surgery and 2 UKA conversions to TKA after 5-year follow-up.ConclusionPatients who have medial compartment OA and underwent UKA had significantly lower joint awareness, decreased pain, improved function, and higher satisfaction compared to matched TKA patients at minimum 5-year follow-up while maintaining excellent survivorship.  相似文献

BackgroundThe purpose of our study was to investigate the association of race and ethnicity with rates of modern implant use and postoperative outcomes in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons American Joint Replacement Registry.MethodsAdult TKAs from 2012 to 2020 were queried from the American Joint Replacement Registry. A total of 1,121,457 patients were available for analysis for surgical features and 1,068,210 patients for analysis of outcomes. Mixed-effects multivariable logistic regression models were used to examine the association of race with each individual surgical feature (unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and robotic-assisted TKA (RA-TKA)) and 30- and 90-day readmission. A proportional subdistribution hazard model was used to model the risk of revision TKA.ResultsOn multivariate analyses, compared to White patients, Black (odds ratio (OR): 0.52 P < .0001), Hispanic (OR 0.75 P < .001), and Native American (OR: 0.69 P = .0011) patients had lower rates of UKA, while only Black patients had lower rates of RA-TKA (OR = 0.76 P < .001). White (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.8, P < .001), Asian (HR = 0.51, P < .001), and Hispanic-White (HR = 0.73, P = .001) patients had a lower risk of revision TKA than Black patients. Asian patients had a lower revision risk than White (HR = 0.64, P < .001) and Hispanic-White (HR = 0.69, P = .011) patients. No significant differences existed between groups for 30- or 90-day readmissions.ConclusionBlack, Hispanic, and Native American patients had lower rates of UKA compared to White patients, while Black patients had lower rates of RA-TKA compared to White, Asian, and Hispanic patients. Black patients also had higher rates of revision TKA than other races.  相似文献

BackgroundIn selected patients, knee arthroscopy is performed prior to unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to treat symptomatic mechanical pathology, delay arthroplasty, and assess the knee compartments. The purpose of this study was to determine if knee arthroscopy prior to UKA is associated with increased rates of UKA failure or conversion to total knee arthroplasty (TKA).MethodsData was collected from the Humana insurance database from 2007-2017. Patients who underwent knee arthroscopy within two years prior to UKA were identified and matched with controls based on age, gender, Charlson Comorbidity Index, smoking status, and obesity. Rates of conversion to TKA and failure for various causes were compared between cohorts.ResultsPrior to propensity matching, 8353 UKA patients met inclusion criteria. Of these, 1079 patients (12.9%) underwent knee arthroscopy within two years of UKA and were matched to 1079 patients (controls) who did not undergo knee arthroscopy in the two years preceding UKA. No differences in demographics/comorbidities existed among cohorts. Compared to controls, the knee arthroscopy cohort was more likely to experience failure for aseptic loosening (2.4% vs 1.1%; OR 2.166; P = .044) and significantly more likely to require conversion to TKA (10.4% vs 4.9%; OR 2.113; P < .001) within two years of UKA.ConclusionKnee arthroscopy within two years of UKA is associated with an increased rate of UKA conversion to TKA and a higher rate of UKA failure from aseptic loosening. Although clinicians should be mindful of this association when performing knee arthroscopy in patients who may be indicated for future UKA, further research is needed to better characterize these findings.  相似文献

Background

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with a risk of thromboembolism requiring routine thromboprophylaxis, but there is debate about the risk with unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) as it is a more minor procedure. We sought to investigate the relative risk of thromboembolism with UKA compared to TKA and one-staged bilateral TKA (BTKA) by measuring the increase in circulating biochemical markers of thrombin generation during the procedures. Degree of surgical trauma was also assessed by measuring interleukin-6, a marker of metabolic injury.

Methods

We prospectively studied a total of 75 patients: 25 patients undergoing UKA, unilateral TKA, and BTKA, respectively. All patients had surgery performed with tourniquet and received no tranexamic acid. Blood samples were taken during surgery and assayed for circulating markers of thrombin generation: prothrombin fragment 1+2 (F1+2) and thrombin-antithrombin complexes plus interleukin-6.

Results

Thrombin-antithrombin complexes, increased during all time points (P < .001) but was not significantly different between surgical treatment groups. F1+2 also rose significantly during surgery, with no significant difference between UKA and TKA. There was, however, a significant difference in F1+2 between BTKA and UKA or TKA (P < .02). Interleukin-6 rose minimally with UKA but rose significantly with TKA and BTKA (P < .001).

Conclusion

Based on these data of circulating biochemical markers, patients undergoing UKA are at similar risk of thromboembolism with respect to TKA despite a lower index of metabolic injury. We believe that UKA patients should receive thromboprophylaxis comparable to TKA patients.  相似文献

BackgroundAs ambulatory total knee arthroplasty (TKA) becomes increasingly common, unplanned admission after surgery presents a challenge for the health care system. Studies evaluating the reasons and risk factors for this occurrence are limited. We sought to evaluate the reasons for unplanned admission after surgery and identify risk factors associated with this occurrence.MethodsPatients registered in an institutional ambulatory joint arthroplasty program who underwent a TKA from 2017-2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The criteria for enrollment include candidates for unilateral TKA between the ages of 18 and 70 years, with a body mass index (BMI) of less than 35, and appropriate social and material support at home. Patients who had certain comorbidities including coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, and opioid dependence were not eligible. A total of 274 patients who underwent TKA with planned same-day discharge (SDD) were identified in the medical record and reviewed. In this cohort, 140 patients (51.1%) were discharged on the day of surgery and 134 patients (48.9%) required a minimum 1-night admission. Demographics, comorbidities, and perioperative data were collected. Factors associated with failed SDD were identified using multivariate logistic regression.ResultsThe most common reasons for failed SDD were failure to meet ambulation goals (25%) and logistical issues related to a late-day case (19%). Risk factors for failed SDD include general anesthesia (odds ratio (OR) 12.60, P = .047), procedure start time after 11:00 am (OR 5.16, P < .001), highest postoperative pain score >8 (visual analogue scale, OR 5.78, P = .001). Willingness to accept a higher pain threshold before discharge (visual analogue scale 4 to 10) was associated with successful SDD (OR 3.0, P < .001). Age and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification were not associated with failed SDD.ConclusionsThe most common reasons for failed SDD were related to logistical issues and postoperative mobilization. Risk factors for failed SDD involve case timing and pain control. Modifiable perioperative factors may play an important role in successful SDD after TKA.  相似文献

BackgroundThe aim of this study is to compare the long-term functional outcome and quality of life between total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and fixed-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) for the treatment of isolated medial compartment osteoarthritis.MethodsBetween 2000 and 2008, a total of 218 patients underwent primary UKA at our tertiary hospital. A TKA group was matched through 1:1 propensity score matching and adjusted for age, gender, body mass index, preoperative knee flexion, and function scores. All patients had medial compartment osteoarthritis. The patients were assessed with the range of motion, Knee Society Knee Score and Knee Society Function Score, Oxford Knee Score, Short Form-36 physical component score (PCS) and mental component score preoperatively, at 6 months, 2 years, and 10 years. Patients’ satisfaction, expectation fulfillment, and minimal clinically important difference were analyzed.ResultsThere were no differences in baseline characteristics between groups after propensity score matching (P > .05). UKA had greater knee flexion at all time points. Although the Knee Society Function Score was superior in UKA by 5.5, 3, and 4.3 points at 6 months, 2 years, and 10 years, respectively (P < .001), these differences did not exceed the minimal clinically important difference (Knee Society Knee Score 6.1). There were no significant differences in the Oxford Knee Score and Short Form-36 physical component score/mental component score. At 10 years, similar proportions of UKA and TKA were satisfied (90.8% vs 89.9%, P = .44) and had expectation fulfillment (89.4% vs 88.5%, P = .46). Between 2 and 10 years, all function scores deteriorated significantly for both groups (P < .01).ConclusionUKA and TKA are excellent treatment modalities for isolated medial compartment osteoarthritis, with similar functional outcomes, quality of life, and satisfaction at 10 years.  相似文献

BackgroundShort-acting spinal anesthetics are playing an increasing role in same-day discharge total joint arthroplasty though their direct comparison remains to be studied. Therefore, this study aims to compare two formulations of spinal anesthesia regarding time to discharge following knee arthroplasty surgery.MethodsA retrospective study was performed on 207 patients who underwent unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA, n = 172) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA, n = 35) from May 2018 to December 2020 at a single institution and were discharged the same day. Two formulations of the spinal anesthetic were routinely administered in this population: 1) mepivacaine 1.5% 3-4 mL (n = 184) and 2) ropivacaine 0.5% 2.3-2.7 mL (n = 23). Discharge times were subsequently compared between mepivacaine and ropivacaine spinal anesthesia for each surgical procedure and between surgical procedures.ResultsThere was no significant difference in discharge times between patients receiving mepivacaine versus ropivacaine for UKA (202 minutes [range = 54-449] versus 218 minutes [range = 175-385], P = .45) or TKA (193 minutes [range = 68-384] versus 196 minutes [range = 68-412], P = .93). Similarly, no difference was found in discharge times between UKA and TKA patients receiving mepivacaine (P = .68) or ropivacaine (P = .51).ConclusionThere was no significant difference in discharge times between anesthetic agents among knee surgery patients. Therefore, either agent may be recommended for same-day discharge.  相似文献

BackgroundTotal knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with increased risk of prolonged narcotic requirement compared to unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). The purpose of the current study is to compare acute postoperative narcotic consumption between the 2 procedures and quantify narcotic consumption.MethodsFrom October 2017 to August 2019 patients were surveyed for four weeks to determine the amount and duration of opioids consumed and requirement for continued narcotics. Among 976 opioid naïve patients, 314 (32%) underwent UKA and 662 (68%) underwent TKA. Patients were analyzed according to specific narcotic prescribed. Total morphine equivalent dose (MED), number of pills, duration, refill percentage, and usage percentage for 4 weeks were calculated for each procedure.ResultsMED used in the postoperative period was lower in patients undergoing UKA than TKA (200 ± 195 vs 259 ± 250 MED, P = .002). Total number of pills consumed and duration of use was less in UKA compared to TKA regardless of which opioid was prescribed. A smaller proportion of patients required narcotics for 4 weeks after UKA (32% vs 43%, P < .001), and fewer UKA patients required narcotic refills (14% vs 27%, P < .001). Sixty pills of any 1 type of narcotic was sufficient for 90% of UKA patients and over 75% of TKA patients.ConclusionUKA is associated with less narcotic consumption, shorter duration of use, less refills, and lower likelihood of narcotic requirement for 4 weeks. We report narcotic consumption patterns for both procedures to aid surgeons in judicious postoperative prescribing.Level of EvidenceThis is a level III retrospective cohort study reviewing narcotic use in over 900 consecutive opioid naïve patients undergoing UKA or TKA.  相似文献

BackgroundAlthough total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are transitioning to surgery centers, there remain limited data on trends, comorbidities, and complications in patients discharged the same day of surgery. In addition, many studies are limited to the Medicare population, excluding a large proportion of outpatient surgery patients.MethodsPrimary, elective THA/TKA cases between 2010 and 2017 were retrospectively identified using the PearlDiver All-Payer Database and separated based on surgery as well as same-day discharge (SDD) or non-SDD. Data were collected on demographics, rates, comorbidities, and complications. Multivariable logistic regression determined adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for 90-day complications requiring readmission for each group.ResultsIn total, 1,789,601 (68.8% TKA, 31.2% THA) patients were identified where 2.9% of TKAs and 2.2% of THAs were SDD. Annual SDD rates are increasing, with a 15.8% mean annual change for SDD-THA and 11.1% for SDD-TKA (P < .001). SDD patients were younger with fewer comorbidities (P < .001). Regression analysis showed an overall slightly higher OR of complications requiring readmission for SDD-TKA vs non-SDD-TKA (OR 1.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.07-1.21, P < .001). There was no significant difference for SDD-THA vs non-SDD-THA (OR 1.03, 95% CI 0.94-1.13, P = .49). In univariate analysis, SDD-THA vs SDD-TKA had more mechanical complications (P < .001), but less pulmonary embolisms (P < .001). Regression analysis showed a slightly higher risk of complications for SDD-THA vs SDD-TKA (OR 1.19, 95% CI 0.99-1.44, P = .05).ConclusionThe prevalence of SDD is rising. SDD-THA is increasing more rapidly than SDD-TKA. SDD patients are generally younger with fewer comorbidities. SDD-TKA has slightly higher odds of complications requiring readmission than non-SDD-TKA. SDD-THA and SDD-TKA have different complication profiles.  相似文献

BackgroundTo the best of our knowledge, there have been no studies in the literature related to the use of second-generation inlay patellofemoral arthroplasty and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty combination (inlay PFA/UKA) in the treatment of mediopatellofemoral osteoarthritis (MPFOA). The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of inlay PFA/UKA in MPFOA.MethodsThe study included 49 patients applied with inlay PFA/UKA because of MPFOA and 49 patients applied with TKA, matched one-to-one according to age, gender, body mass index, follow-up period, preoperative Knee Society Score, and range of motion. All the patients were evaluated clinically using the Knee Society Score, Knee Injury Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, and range of motion, and were also evaluated radiologically. Complication rates and length of hospital stay were compared.ResultsThe mean follow-up period was 54 ± 4 and 54.4 ± 3.9 months in inlay PFA/UKA and TKA groups, respectively. (P = .841). No statistically significant difference was determined between the 2 groups in respect of the mean clinical scores at the final follow-up examination (P ≥ .129). Total complications were fewer and length of hospital stay was shorter in the inlay PFA/UKA group than in the TKA group (P = .037 and P = .002). There was no radiographic evidence of progression of lateral compartment osteoarthritis according to Kellgren-Lawrence in any patient in the inlay PFA/UKA group.ConclusionIn selected patient groups, inlay PFA/UKA is an alternative to TKA, with lower complication rates, shorter length of hospital stay, and clinical and functional results similar to those of TKA without osteoarthritis progression in the unresurfaced lateral compartment in the mid-term.Level of EvidenceIII.  相似文献

BackgroundTotal knee arthroplasty (TKA) causes severe pain, and strong opioids are commonly used in postoperative analgesia. Dexmedetomidine is a novel alpha-2-adrenoceptor-activating drug indicated for procedural sedation, but previous studies have shown clinically relevant analgesic and antiemetic effects. We evaluated retrospectively the effect of intranasal dexmedetomidine on the postoperative opioid requirement in patients undergoing TKA.MethodsOne hundred and fifty patients with ASA status 1-2, age between 35 and 80 years, and scheduled for unilateral primary TKA under total intravenous anesthesia were included in the study. Half of the patients received 100 μg of intranasal dexmedetomidine after anesthesia induction, while the rest were treated conventionally. The postoperative opioid requirement was calculated as morphine equivalent doses for both groups. The effect of dexmedetomidine on postoperative hemodynamics, length of stay (LOS), and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), was evaluated.ResultsThe cumulative postoperative opioid consumption was significantly reduced in the dexmedetomidine group compared to the control group (?28.5 mg, 95% CI 12-47 mg P < .001). The reduction in cumulative opioid dose was significantly different between the groups already at 2, 12, 24, and 36 h postoperatively (P < .001). LOS was shorter in the dexmedetomidine group (P < .001), and the dexmedetomidine group had lower postoperative mean arterial pressure and heart rates were lower compared to the control group (P < .001). The incidence of PONV did not differ between the groups (P = .64).ConclusionIntraoperatively administered intranasal dexmedetomidine reduces postoperative opioid consumption and may be associated with a shorter hospital stay in patients undergoing TKA under general anesthesia.  相似文献

Background

Most patients experience moderate to severe pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We hypothesized that intraoperative treatment of cut bone surfaces with local anesthetic (preimplantation immersion anesthesia, PIA) would lead to decreased postoperative pain and opioid consumption.

Methods

Records of 76 patients who underwent unilateral, cemented TKA were retrospectively reviewed. For PIA patients, surgical wounds were immersed in local anesthetic solution immediately prior to component implantation. Both PIA (n = 43) and control (n = 33) groups received multimodal pain management, including intra-articular local anesthetic injections. Endpoints were opioid consumption and mean pain scores for postoperative day (POD) 0, 1, and 2. Demographic, medical, and social factors were included in multivariate analyses.

Results

PIA patients reported significantly lower mean pain scores than controls on PODs 0 and 1 (both P < .005). Pain scores on POD 2 were similar. PIA patients used 45%-33% less opioids on PODs 0, 1, and 2 (all P < .005). POD 0 pain scores showed a significant interaction between PIA treatment and preoperative opioid use (P = .013). On POD 1, PIA was the only factor associated with lower mean pain scores (P < .001). No factors were significant for POD 2. PIA was the only factor associated with lower postoperative opioid consumption on PODs 0 and 2 (both P < .005). For POD 1, PIA and increasing age (both P ≤ .005) were associated with lower postoperative opioid consumption.

Conclusion

PIA was associated with significant reductions in opioid use and mean pain scores after TKA.  相似文献

BackgroundTotal knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a gold standard surgical treatment for end-stage arthritis and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is an alternative for localized disease in appropriate patients. Both have been shown to have equivalent complications in the short-term period. We aimed to explore the differences in 30-day complication rates between UKA and TKA using recent data.MethodsCurrent Procedural Terminology codes identified patients in the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database who underwent primary TKA or UKA from 2014 to 2018. Propensity score matching addressed demographic differences. Rate of any adverse event (AAE) and complications were compared.ResultsWe identified 279,852 patients with 270,786 and 9,066 undergoing TKA and UKA. No significant difference was observed in baseline demographics after matching. The AAE rate differed significantly between TKA (5.07%) and UKA (2.38%) cohorts (P < .001). TKA group experienced more wound dehiscence, cerebrovascular accident, postoperative blood transfusion, deep vein thrombosis, and requirement for postoperative intubation. Rate of extended length of stay differed between the TKA (11.35%) and UKA (4.89%) cohorts (P < .001). Accounting for all other variables, preoperative corticosteroid use, bleeding disorder, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease increased the risk for AAE for both groups. Increasing American Society of Anesthesiologists class also increased the odds for complication proportionally with increasing age and operative time.ConclusionContrary to previous data, we found a significantly higher 30-day complication rate in TKA patients. TKA patients had a higher likelihood of having an extended length of stay. Multivariable analysis identified preoperative steroid use, bleeding disorder, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as risk factors for developing adverse events for both groups.Level of EvidenceLevel III.  相似文献

BackgroundThe early postoperative recovery period following unicompartmental (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an important area for research with increasingly sensitive metrics and new technologies. This study uses 2 recently developed patient-reported scores to compare the recovery following UKA and TKA.MethodsTwo consecutive cohorts of 37 UKAs and 33 TKAs completed the Oxford Arthroplasty Early Recovery Score (OARS) and the Oxford Arthroplasty Early Change Score (OACS) on days 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, and week 6. The Short Form-36 version 2 was also completed on weeks 1, 2, and 6. Improvements within cohorts and comparisons between cohorts were assessed.ResultsFor both UKA and TKA the speed of recovery was rapid early on and then progressively decreased. At all time points, the UKA cohort reported similar or significantly better scores than the TKA cohort. The overall OARS (P < .001) showed that UKA recovered, shown as improvement on the OARS, 2-3 times faster than TKA. OARS subscales demonstrated that UKA had better Function/Mobility (P = .003) particularly early in the recovery, and better Nausea/Feeling Unwell (P < .001) and Fatigue/Sleep (P = .009) later in the recovery. UKA also had less pain at 2 weeks (P = .03). There was no significant difference between UKA and TKA OACS. UKA had significantly better scores in 3 of the 8 Short Form-36 domains, with the largest difference being in Role-Emotional (P = .003).ConclusionThe OARS is useful for the assessment of postoperative recovery. This study provides direct evidence that recovery following UKA is better and 2-3 times faster than following TKA. All differences may be explained by the less invasive nature of UKA.  相似文献

BackgroundData on the clinical impact of computer navigation (CN) and robotic assistance (RA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are mixed. This study aims to describe modern utilization trends in CN-TKA, RA-TKA, and traditionally-instrumented (TD) TKA and to assess for differences in postoperative complications and opioid consumption by procedure type.MethodsA national database was queried to identify primary, elective TKA patients from 2015 to 2020. Trends in procedural utilization rates were assessed. Differences in 90-day postoperative complications and inpatient opioid consumption were assessed. Multivariate regression analyses were performed to account for potential confounders.ResultsOf the 847,496 patients included, 49,317 (5.82%) and 24,460 (2.89%) underwent CN-TKA and RA-TKA, respectively. CN-TKA utilization increased from 5.64% (2015) to 6.41% (2020) and RA-TKA utilization increased from 0.84% (2015) to 5.89% (2020). After adjusting for confounders, CN-TKA was associated with lower periprosthetic joint infection (P = .001), pulmonary embolism (P < .001), and acute respiratory failure (P = .015) risk compared to traditional (TD) TKA. RA-TKA was associated with lower deep vein thrombosis (P < .001), myocardial infarction (P = .013), and pulmonary embolism (P = .001) risk than TD-TKA. Lower postoperative day 1 opioid usage was seen with CN-TKA and RA-TKA than TD-TKA (P < .001). Lower postoperative day 0 opioid consumption was also seen in RA-TKA (P < .001).ConclusionFrom 2015 to 2020, there was a relative 13.7% and 601.2% increase in CN-TKAs and RA-TKAs, respectively. This trend was associated with reductions in hospitalization duration, postoperative complications, and opioid consumption. These data support the safety of RA-TKA and CN-TKA compared to TD-TKA. Further investigation into the specific indications for these technology-assisted TKAs is warranted.  相似文献

BackgroundTotal knee arthroplasty (TKA) provides excellent results across a variety of pathologies. As greater focus is placed on the opioid epidemic, we sought to determine if patients presenting for TKA via the Medicaid clinic (Medicaid) differed in terms of their opioid requirements compared to patients presenting via private office clinics (non-Medicaid).MethodsA single-institution total joint arthroplasty database was utilized to identify patients who underwent elective TKA between January 2016 and May 2019. Medicaid clinic patients were insured by some form of Medicaid, whereas private office patients had commercial or Medicare insurance. Morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs) and Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care scores were calculated.ResultsA total of 6509 patients were identified: 413 (6.35%) Medicaid and 6096 (93.65%) non-Medicaid. Medicaid patients were younger (63.32 vs 66.21 years, P < .0001), less likely to be of Caucasian race (21.31% vs 56.82%, P < .0001), and more likely to be active smokers (11.14% vs 7.73%, P < .0001). Although surgical time and home discharge rates were similar, Medicaid patients had longer length of stay (2.80 vs 2.46 days, P < .0001). Opioid requirements were higher for Medicaid patients (200.1 vs 132.2 MMEs, P < .0001), paralleling higher pain scores (3.03 vs 2.55, P < .0001). No differences were found in Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care scores (18.47 vs 18.77, P = .1824).ConclusionMedicaid patients tended to be younger, of minority race, and active smokers compared to non-Medicaid patients. Medicaid patients demonstrated worse postoperative pain scores and required 51% greater MMEs immediately following TKA, highlighting the need for preoperative counseling in traditionally at-risk socioeconomic groups.Level of EvidenceIII, Retrospective Observational Analysis.  相似文献

Knee arthroplasty, including total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA), is an effective procedure for patients with severe knee joint diseases. Arterial occlusion after knee arthroplasty is a rare but severe complication. However, there are few comprehensive reviews or analyses focusing on it. In this study, we presented a case of successful treatment of acute arterial occlusion of the popliteal artery after TKA by emergent balloon angioplasty, and conducted a review and analysis of published cases with this complication. After search and screening, 36 studies with 47 cases of arterial occlusion after knee arthroplasty in the past 35 years (1984–2018) were included. Among the 47 patients, there were 22 men and 25 women. The mean age was 68 years old. A total of 43 patients had primary TKA while 2 had revision surgery for TKA and 2 for UKA. For arterial occlusions, 66% presented symptoms in less than 1 day after knee surgery and 95% of the occlusion sites were around the popliteal artery. For treatment, 89% chose surgical treatment. Compared with conservative treatment, surgical treatment was more effective (P < 0.01). The patients who underwent surgical treatment less than 1 day after diagnosis had less sequelae (P < 0.05). For arterial occlusion after knee arthroplasty, we should pay attention to the perioperative risk factors and presentations, and diagnose and treat surgically at an early stage.  相似文献

BackgroundThe aim of this article is to study the correlation between preoperative pain sensitivity and postoperative pain and analgesic requirements for patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty.MethodsBetween December 2018 and April 2019, the pain sensitivity of 178 consecutive patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty was assessed preoperatively with a digital algometer. The patients reported the VAS (visual analog scale) score at 3 instances of needle prick (phlebotomy, glucometer blood sugar, intradermal antibiotic test dose), during the range of movements and completed the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale score. Postoperative VAS score, analgesic requirement, and physiotherapy milestones were recorded in all these patients on day 0 to day 4.ResultsThe average age of the patients was 64.13 years and 69.1% were females. Females had lower mean algometry values (56.12 ± 12.77 [standard deviation]) compared to males (71.09 ± 18.78 [standard deviation]) (P < .001). Higher Depression Anxiety Stress Scale correlated with lower algometry values (P < .001). The postoperative VAS score was 2.54 ± 0.59 on the day of surgery which increased to 3.27 ± 0.69 on day 1 after mobilization (P < .001) and reduced to 1.67 ± 0.62 on day 4. Low algometer score correlated with higher postoperative VAS score (P < .05), increased analgesic requirement, and opioid utilization (P < .001), delay in achieving an optimum range of movements (P < .001) and independent ambulation (P < .001).ConclusionPreoperative assessment of pain sensitivity predicts postoperative analgesic requirements and recovery. Patients with a lower pain threshold should be counseled preoperatively and also receive a better titration of analgesics perioperatively and prolonged physiotherapy.  相似文献

BackgroundUnicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) indications have expanded during the past two decades to include some morbidly obese patients (body mass index (BMI) > 40 kg/m2). Few published studies have compared UKA and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in this unique patient subgroup with conflicting observations.MethodsWe retrospectively compared 89 mobile bearing UKA (71 patients) and 201 TKA (175 patients) performed at a single institution with a minimum 2-year follow-up (mean 3.4 years). Demographic characteristics were similar for both patient cohorts. A detailed medical record review was performed to assess the frequency of component revision, revision indications, minor secondary procedures (components retained), and infections.ResultsUKA was more frequently associated with clinical failure (29.2% vs 2.5%, P < .001) and component revision (15.7% vs 2.5%, P < .001), TKA was more frequently associated with extensor mechanism complications or knee manipulation (5.5% vs 0.0%, P = .02), and there was no difference in the infection rate (3.0% vs 2.2%, P = 1.0).ConclusionEarly complications were lower following UKA but were outweighed by higher component revision rates for arthritis progression and implant failure. The study findings suggest that TKA provides a more predictable mid-term outcome for morbidly obese patients considering knee arthroplasty surgery.  相似文献
