Background

Opioids are commonly used for the management of preoperative and postoperative pain among patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). There is limited literature on the chronic use of opioids pre-TKA and post-TKA. The aim of this study was to characterize the use of opioids in TKA patients before and after surgery and identify risk factors of chronic opioid use.

Methods

Opioid use among 15,020 patients undergoing TKA (01/01/2001-31/12/2012) was examined. Generalized estimating equations assessed change in total oral morphine equivalents pre-TKA and post-TKA, and logistic regression estimated risk factors of chronic opioid use.

Results

Of the total sample, 7782 (52.0%) patients had at least 1 opioid (38.6% pre-TKA and 34.4% post-TKA). The most commonly prescribed opioids were oxycodone, codeine + acetaminophen, and tramadol. Pre-TKA, 720 (4.8%) patients were chronic opioid users, of which 241 (33.5%) stopped being chronic users after surgery and 479 (66.5%) continued but had a 16% reduction (incidence rate ratio = 0.84; 95% confidence interval, 0.78-0.90) in total oral morphine equivalents. Of the 5077 (33.8%) occasional opioid user pre-TKA, 2407 (47.4%) stopped after surgery. Compared to nonopioid users, chronic users were younger, were female, had more comorbidity, and had longer hospital stays. Older age was associated with ceasing chronic opioid use post-TKA.

Conclusion

There was a reduction in opioid use following TKA. Almost 50% of occasional users and more than 30% of chronic users pre-TKA ceased opioids postoperatively. There was a reduction in use for those chronic users who continued to take opioids postsurgery.  相似文献

Background

With the growing opioid crisis in the United States, there has been a push to reduce the utilization of opioids in favor of multimodal analgesia options. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of online resources that patients may use to learn about pain control after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Methods

We identified websites using a combination of search terms about TKA and pain control. A novel grading rubric was created with 25 maximum points, consisting of items that were deemed important for patients to know about the subject. Three authors then independently graded websites and the results averaged. Flesch-Kinkaid reading level was also evaluated.

Results

After identifying 166 unique websites, 32 met final inclusion criteria. The overall scores were low–4.7 of 25 total points (18.8%), written at an average 10th grade level. Subgroup scores were 50% for route of administration, 40% for types of analgesia, 23% for opioid-specific items, and 30% for general guidance. Only about half discussed the risks of opioid dependency. The top 3 website total scores ranged from 10.7-12.5 of 25 points.

Conclusion

There is a paucity of online information for TKA patients to read about pain control. Most websites provide limited educational content, particularly about opioids. Higher quality information is needed to help patients make decisions with their physicians and to help combat the opioid epidemic. Given the lack of quality information available, there is an opportunity for subspecialty organizations to take a leadership role in such efforts.  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

Background

Aspirin at 325 mg twice daily is now included as a nationally approved venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis protocol for low-risk total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients. The purpose of this study is to examine whether there is a difference in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurrence after a limited tourniquet TKA using aspirin-based prophylaxis with or without extended use of mechanical compression device (MCD) therapy.

Methods

One hundred limited tourniquet TKA patients, whose DVT risk was managed with aspirin 325 mg twice daily for 3 weeks, were randomized to either using an MCD during hospitalization only or extended use at home up to 6 weeks postoperatively. Lower extremity duplex venous ultrasonography (LEDVU) was completed on the second postoperative day, 14 days postoperatively, and at 3 months postoperatively to confirm the absence of DVT after treatment.

Results

The DVT rate for the postdischarge MCD therapy group was 0% and 23.1% for the inpatient MCD group (P < .001). All DVTs resolved by 3 months postoperatively. Patient satisfaction was 9.56 (±0.82) for postdischarge MCD patients vs 8.50 (±1.46) for inpatient MCD patients (P < .001).

Conclusion

Limited tourniquet TKA patients who were mobilized early, managed with aspirin for 3 weeks postoperatively, and on MCD therapy for up to 6 weeks postoperatively experienced superior DVT prophylaxis than patients receiving MCD therapy only as an inpatient (P < .05). The 0% incidence of nonsymptomatic DVTs prevented by aspirin and extended-use MCD further validates this type of prophylaxis in low DVT risk TKA patients.  相似文献

Background

Postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can be burdensome. Multiple methods of pain control have been used, including adductor canal block (ACB) and multimodal periarticular analgesia (MPA). These two techniques have been studied have proven to be efficacious separately. The purpose of this study was to compare: (1) lengths of stay (LOS), (2) pain level, (3) discharge status, and (4) opioid use in TKA patients who received ACB alone vs patients who received ACB and MPA.

Methods

A single surgeon database was reviewed for patients who had a TKA between January 2015 and April 2016. Patients who received ACB with or without MPA were included. This yielded 127 patients who had a mean age of 63 years. Patients were grouped into having received ACB alone (n = 52) and having received ACB and MPA (n = 75). Patient records were reviewed to obtain demographic and end point data (LOS, pain, discharge status, and opioid use). Student t test and chi-squared test were used to compare continuous and categorical variables respectively.

Results

There were no significant difference in mean LOS (P = .934), pain level (P = .142), discharge status (P = .077), or total opioid use (P = .708) between the 2 groups.

Conclusion

There was no significant difference in LOS, pain levels, discharge status, and opiate requirements between the 2 groups. ACB alone may be as effective as combined ACB and MPA in TKA patients for postoperative pain control. Larger prospective studies are needed to verify these findings and to improve generalization.  相似文献

Background

There has been a recent surge of interest in performing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the outpatient setting to reduce cost and increase patient satisfaction. Detailed information on the safety of outpatient TKA in large sample sizes is scarce.

Methods

Patients who underwent primary, elective TKA were identified in the 2005-2014 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database. Outpatient procedure was defined as having a hospital length of stay of 0 days, whereas inpatient procedure was defined as having a length of stay ≥1 days. To reduce the effect of confounding factors and nonrandom assignment of treatment, propensity score matching was used. Multivariate analyses on the matched samples were used to compare the rates of adverse events that happened any time during the 30-day postoperative period, postdischarge adverse events, and readmissions between the outpatient and inpatient cohorts.

Results

A total of 112,922 TKA patients met the inclusion criteria. Of these, only 642 (0.57%) were outpatient procedures. Outpatients tended to be men, slightly younger, and have less comorbidity. After propensity matching, multivariate analysis revealed a higher rate of postdischarge blood transfusions (P < .001) in the outpatient cohort. There were no other significant differences in 30-day postoperative individual adverse events or readmissions.

Conclusion

Based on the perioperative outcome measures studied here, outpatient TKA can be appropriately considered in select patients based on rates of overall perioperative adverse events and readmissions. However, higher surveillance of these patients postdischarge may be warranted.  相似文献

Background

Cryotherapy is widely utilized to enhance recovery after knee surgeries. However, the outcome parameters often vary between studies. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to compare (1) no cryotherapy vs cryotherapy; (2) cold pack cryotherapy vs continuous flow device cryotherapy; (3) various protocols of application of these cryotherapy methods; and (4) cost-benefit analysis in patients who had unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Methods

A search for “knee” and “cryotherapy” using PubMed, EBSCO Host, and SCOPUS was performed, yielding 187 initial reports. After selecting for RCTs relevant to our study, 16 studies were included.

Results

Of the 8 studies that compared the immediate postoperative outcomes between patients who did and did not receive cryotherapy, 5 studies favored cryotherapy (2 cold packs and 3 continuous cold flow devices). Of the 6 studies comparing the use of cold packs and continuous cold flow devices in patients who underwent UKA or TKA, 3 favor the use of continuous flow devices. There was no difference in pain, postoperative opioid consumption, or drain output between 2 different temperature settings of continuous cold flow device.

Conclusion

The optimal device to use may be one that offers continuous circulating cold flow, as there were more studies demonstrating better outcomes. In addition, the pain relieving effects of cryotherapy may help minimize pain medication use, such as with opioids, which are associated with numerous potential side effects as well as dependence and addiction. Meta-analysis on the most recent RCTs should be performed next.  相似文献

Background

As outpatient total hip (THA) and knee arthroplasties (TKA) increase in popularity, concerns exist about the safety of discharging patients home the same day. The purpose of this study is to determine the complications associated with outpatient total joint arthroplasty (TJA) and to identify high-risk patients who should be excluded from these protocols.

Methods

We queried the American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database for all patients who underwent primary TKA or THA from 2011 to 2014. Demographic variables, medical comorbidities, and 30-day complication, readmission, and reoperation rates were compared between outpatient and traditional inpatient procedures. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was then performed to identify independent risk factors of poor short-term outcomes.

Results

Of the total 169,406 patients who underwent TJA, 1220 were outpatient (0.7%). The outpatient and inpatient groups had an overall complication rate of 8% and 16%, respectively. Patients aged more than 70 years, those with malnutrition, cardiac history, smoking history, or diabetes mellitus are at higher risk for readmission and complications after THA and TKA (all P < .05). Surprisingly, outpatient TJA alone did not increase the risk of readmission (OR 0.652, 95% CI 0.243-1.746, P = .395) or reoperation (OR 1.168, 95% CI 0.374-3.651, P = .789), and was a negative independent risk factor for complications (OR 0.459, 95% CI 0.371-0.567, P < .001).

Conclusion

With the resources available in a hospital setting, outpatient TJA may be a safe option, but only in select, healthier patients. Care should be taken to extrapolate these results to an outpatient facility, where complications may be more difficult to manage.  相似文献

Background

Multimodal pain protocols have reduced opioid requirements and decreased complications after elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, these protocols are not universally effective. The purposes of this study are to determine the risk factors associated with increased opioid requirements and the impact of preoperative narcotic use on the length of stay and inhospital complications after THA or TKA.

Methods

We prospectively evaluated a consecutive series of 802 patients undergoing elective primary THA and TKA over a 9-month period. All patients were managed using a multimodal pain protocol. Data on medical comorbidities and history of preoperative narcotic use were collected and correlated with deviations from the protocol.

Results

Of the 802 patients, 266 (33%) required intravenous narcotic rescue. Patients aged <75 years (odds ratio [OR], 1.85; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-3.12; P = .019) and with preoperative narcotic use (OR, 2.74; 95% CI, 2.01-3.75; P < .001) were more likely to require rescue. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that preoperative narcotic use (OR, 2.74; 95% CI, 2.01-3.75; P < .001) was the largest independent predictor of increased postoperative opioid requirements. These patients developed more inhospital complications (OR, 1.92; 95% CI, 1.34-2.76; P < .001). This was associated with an increased length of stay (OR, 1.59; 95% CI, 1.06-2.37; P = .025) and a 2.5-times risk of requiring oral narcotics at 3 months postoperatively (OR, 2.48; 95% CI, 1.61-3.82; P < .001).

Conclusion

Despite the effectiveness of multimodal postoperative pain protocols, younger patients with preoperative history of narcotic use require additional opioids and are at a higher risk for complications and a greater length of stay.  相似文献

Background

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has perceived advantages in the early postoperative stage for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It is not clear whether the improved radiographic alignment achieved by computer-assisted navigation surgery (CAS) improves midterm clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare patient outcomes of MIS TKA performed with and without CAS after a minimum follow-up of 7 years.

Methods

Between 2007 and 2009, 50 patients underwent CAS and MIS TKA, and 50 patients underwent jig-based MIS TKA in this prospective study. Ninety-six patients were evaluated after a mean follow-up of 7.7 years, and clinical and radiological evaluations were performed.

Results

Midterm results demonstrated that the Knee Society knee score, function score, and range of motion were comparable in the 2 groups. The percentage of patients with the mechanical axis within ±3° of neutral was significantly higher in the CAS group than in the jig-based group (94% vs 79%, respectively; P = .038). No knees had loosening after TKA. However, 1 patient in the CAS group demonstrated late infection 4 years postoperatively.

Conclusion

CAS did not improve midterm outcomes after MIS TKA compared with jig-based surgery, although CAS reduced outliers in coronal alignment.  相似文献

Background

The ideal fixation for modern tibial components in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial with uncertainty on whether cementless implants can yield equivalent outcomes to cemented fixation in early follow-up.

Methods

A series of 70 consecutive cases with reverse hybrid cementless fixation were matched to 70 cemented cases from 2008 to 2015 based on implant design and patient demographics.

Results

Cementless TKA demonstrated greater aseptic loosening (7 vs 0, P = .013) and revision surgery (10 vs 0, P = .001) than cemented fixation within 5 years of follow-up, but with no clinically significant differences in outcome scores.

Conclusion

It remains unclear whether early aseptic loosening in cementless TKA can be reduced with enhanced adjunct fixation and what proportion of early failure justifies the potential lifelong fixation through biologic ingrowth of cementless tibial components.  相似文献

Background

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) characterizes adverse quality events in the inpatient setting as patient safety indicators (PSI). The incidence of PSI has not been quantified in the total knee arthroplasty (TKA) population.

Methods

All patients in the Nationwide Inpatient Sample who underwent primary TKA during an inpatient episode in 2013 were identified using International Classification of Disease, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification codes. The incidence of PSI was determined using the International Classification of Disease, Ninth Revision diagnosis code algorithms used by CMS. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine significant associations between patient level covariates (demographics, comorbidities, and hospital characteristics) and the risk of experiencing one or more PSI after TKA.

Results

We identified 132,453 primary TKA patients in the Nationwide Inpatient Sample in 2013. We estimated the national incidence rate of experiencing one or more PSI as 0.98%. After adjusting for patient demographics and hospital characteristics, we found that relative to Medicaid/self-pay patients, neither Medicare nor privately insured patients faced significantly different risk of experiencing one or more PSI after TKA. However, alcohol abuse, deficiency anemia, congestive heart failure, coagulopathy, and electrolyte imbalance were associated with increased risk of experiencing one or more PSI after TKA.

Conclusion

The national incidence of PSI among TKA patients was lower than has been reported in other surgical populations. CMS uses the incidence of adverse quality events (measured using PSI) in part to determine hospital reimbursement. As value-based payment becomes more widely adopted in the United States, initiatives designed to eliminate and reduce PSI incidence can benefit vulnerable patient populations, physicians, and hospital systems.  相似文献

Background

The purpose of this study was to compare the patient-reported outcomes regarding joint awareness, function, and satisfaction after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Methods

We identified all patients who underwent a UKA or TKA at our institution between September 2011 and March 2014, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Propensity score matching was performed for age, gender, body mass index, operation side, and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score. One hundred UKAs to 100 TKAs were matched. Each knee was evaluated according to the WOMAC score, Forgotten Joint Score (FJS), High Flexion Knee Score (HFKS) and patient's satisfaction at postoperative 2 years.

Results

There was no significant difference in WOMAC score at postoperative 2 years between UKA and TKA groups. However, the FJS of the UKA group was significantly higher than that of the TKA group (67.3 ± 19.8 and 60.6 ± 16.6, respectively; P = .011). The HFKS was also significantly higher in the UKA group compared with the TKA group (34.4 ± 6.4 and 31.3 ± 5.2, respectively; P < .001). Eighty-six percent of all patients who underwent UKA were satisfied compared with 71% of those who underwent TKA (P = .027).

Conclusion

Patients who underwent UKA had higher FJS, HFKS, and satisfaction rate when compared with patients who underwent TKA, indicating that UKA facilitated less knee awareness and better function and satisfaction than TKA.  相似文献

Background

The ability to identify those at risk for longer inpatient stay helps providers with postoperative planning and patient expectations. Decreasing length of stay (LOS) in the future will be determined by appropriate patient selection, risk stratification, and preoperative patient optimization. The purpose of this study was to identify factors that place patients at risk for extended postoperative LOSs.

Methods

The study cohort included 2009 primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients and 905 total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients. Patient comorbidities were prospectively identified and the LOS for each patient was tracked after a primary arthroplasty. Statistical analysis was performed to correlate which comorbidities were associated with longer inpatient stays.

Results

In the TKA population, gender, smoking status, venous thromboembolism history, body mass index, and diabetes status were not found to be a significant predictor for the LOS. Age was found to be a factor in univariate regression testing (P < .001). In the THA population, univariate testing showed female gender (P < .001), smoking status (P = .002), and age (P < .001) to be factors, but like the TKA population, venous thromboembolism history or diabetes status was not significant. In THA multivariate analysis, age (P < .001) and female gender (P = .018) continued to be factors, but smoking was determined to be a confounding variable.

Conclusion

Age and gender were associated with a longer LOS after THA, whereas only age was a significant factor after TKA. Development of age-adjusted LOS models may help aid patient expectations and risk management.  相似文献

Background

Dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is common. Approximately 20% of patients report dissatisfaction following primary TKA. This systematic literature review explores key factors affecting patient dissatisfaction following TKA.

Methods

Six literature databases published between 2005 and 1 January 2016 were searched using 3 key search phrases. Papers were included if the study investigated patient dissatisfaction in primary unilateral or bilateral TKA. Information from each article was categorized to the domains of socioeconomic, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative factors affecting patient dissatisfaction.

Results

This review found that patient dissatisfaction pertains to several key factors. Patient expectations prior to surgery, the degree of improvement in knee function, and pain relief following surgery were commonly cited in the literature. Fewer associations were found in the socioeconomic and surgical domains.

Conclusion

Identifying who may be dissatisfied after their TKA is mystifying; however, we note several strategies that target factors whereby an association exists. Further research is needed to better quantify dissatisfaction, so that the causal links underpinning dissatisfaction can be more fully appreciated and strategies employed to target them.  相似文献

Background

There is little known in the literature about whether preoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) would affect the risk of periprosthetic fractures (PPFs) after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Our study aims to evaluate the predictive values of PROMs on PPF after primary TKA. We hypothesize that poorer PROMs are associated with a higher risk of PPF after primary TKA.

Methods

We reviewed prospectively collected data in our hospital arthroplasty registry. Patients who sustained PPF after primary TKA between 2000 and 2015 were identified. Forty-two patients were identified and matched for gender, age, and body mass index to a control group of 84 patients who had primary TKA without PPF in a 2:1 ratio. Preoperative demographics, Short Form-36 (SF-36) scores, Oxford Knee score and Knee Society Score were evaluated. Variables of PROMs were entered into a multivariate logistic regression model. A variable was considered to be a significant predictor if its odds ratio was significant at P < .05.

Results

After multivariate regression analysis, SF-36 subdomains of physical functioning (PF) and vitality (VT) were identified as significant predictors for PPFs after primary TKA. A lower SF-36 PF and VT scores were associated with higher risks of sustaining a PPF after primary TKA.

Conclusion

From our study, low preoperative SF-36 PF and VT scores are associated with a higher risk of PPFs after primary TKA. These results can allow the preoperative identification of patients at higher risk of PPF, and appropriate preoperative counseling, optimization, and close follow-up can be instituted for this at-risk group.  相似文献

Background

Although multimodal pain management including periarticular multidrug injection can provide excellent pain relief in the early postoperative period after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), rebounding pain remains an important challenge. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed to investigate the efficacy of adding intravenous acetaminophen to multimodal pain management for TKA.

Methods

We enrolled 67 patients scheduled for unilateral TKA. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either 1000 mg of intravenous acetaminophen at 6-hour intervals or normal saline at the same intervals. All patients were treated with intraoperative periarticular multidrug injection and intravenous and oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The primary outcome was the postoperative 100-mm visual analog pain scale at the time of administration of study drugs.

Results

In the intention-to-treat analysis, the pain score was significantly better in the intravenous acetaminophen group than the placebo group at 17:00 one day after TKA (15.3 ± 17.0 mm vs 26.8 ± 19.0 mm; P = .013). There were no significant differences in terms of the rate of complications between groups.

Conclusion

Even in the setting of multimodal pain management including periarticular multidrug injection, intravenous acetaminophen provided better pain relief for patients undergoing unilateral TKA.  相似文献
