Incidence, Risk Factors, and Nomogram of Transfusion and Associated Complications in Nonfracture Patients following Total Hip Arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT: The incidence, risk factors, and associated complications of perioperative transfusion in nonfracture patients following total hip arthroplasty (THA) are unclear. The aim of the present research was to study the predictors of transfusion risk in nonfracture patients following THA and develop a nomogram. One thousand six hundred and thirty-five patients who underwent THA due to nonfracture disease in our institution between September 2013 and July 2017 were included. Independent predictors of transfusion were identified by univariate, LASSO, and multivariate analyses. A nomogram was established based on independent predictors. In addition, a prospective cohort was used to validate the nomogram. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was utilized to evaluate the discrimination of the nomogram. Calibration and decision curve analyses were established to evaluate the nomogram. In addition, the association between perioperative transfusion and 30- and 90-day complications was studied. The incidence of transfusion was 15.78%, and 10 independent predictors were confirmed. The areas under the curve of the nomogram were 0.834 and 0.867 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. Moreover, the area under the curve of the nomogram was significantly higher than that of any single predictor in both the training and validation cohorts. Calibration curve and decision curve analyses in both the training and validation cohorts showed good performance of the nomogram. In addition, perioperative transfusion was identified as an independent risk factor for both 30- and 90-day complications. Generally, ten transfusion-related factors for nonfracture patients following THA were identified. A validated nomogram was established, and several adverse events were confirmed to be associated with transfusion.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Perioperative bleeding requiring blood transfusion is a known complication of hip dysplasia (HD) surgery. Here we examine rates of, risk factors for, and postoperative complications associated with transfusion during HD surgery. METHODS:The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) Pediatric database was queried for patients treated by an orthopaedist from 2012 to 2013. HD cases were categorized by Current Procedural Terminology codes into femoral osteotomies, acetabular osteotomies, combined femoral/acetabular osteotomies, and open reductions. Patients were grouped by comorbidities: neuromuscular (NM) disease (eg, cerebral palsy) group, non-NM with other comorbidity (Other) group, and no known comorbidity (NL) group. Patients were stratified by weight-normalized transfusion volume. Multivariate regression analysis of transfusion association with procedures, demographics, comorbidities, preoperative laboratory values, and 30-day complications was performed. RESULTS:A total of 1184 HD cases were included. Transfusion rates for the NL, Other, and NM groups, respectively, were 44/451 (9.8%), 61/216 (28.2%), and 161/517 (31.1%). Transfusion volumes (mean±SD) for the NL, Other, and NM groups, respectively, were 8.4±5.4, 13.9±8.8, and 15.5±10.0 mL/kg (P<0.001). Combined osteotomies had the highest transfusion rates in the NM and Other groups (35.7% and 45.8%, respectively), whereas acetabular osteotomies had the highest rate in the NL group (15.8%). Open reductions had the lowest transfusion rate (all groups). Longer operations were independently associated with transfusion (all groups, per hour increase, OR>1.5, P<0.001). Independent patient risk factors included preoperative hematocrit <31% (NM group, OR=18.42, P=0.013), female sex (NL group, OR=3.55, P=0.008), developmental delay (NM group, OR=2.37, P=0.004), pulmonary comorbidity (NM group, OR=1.73, P=0.032), and older age (NL group, per year increase: OR=1.29, P<0.001). In all groups, transfusion was associated with longer hospitalization (P<0.001). We observed a volume-dependent increase in overall complication rate within the Other group for transfusion volumes >15 mL/kg (25.0% vs. 5.4% for <15 mL/kg, P=0.048). CONCLUSIONS:We identified several risk factors for transfusion in HD surgery. The incidence of transfusion in HD surgery and its association with adverse outcomes warrants development of appropriate patient management guidelines. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:Level III-prognostic.

Project description:Background: Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) following revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) can be a devastating complication. This study assessed the frequency of and risk factors for postoperative PNI following rTHA. Methods: Patients who underwent rTHA from 2003 to 2015 were identified using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS). Demographics, medical history, surgical details, and complications were compared between patients who sustained a PNI and those who did not, to identify risk factors for the development of PNI after rTHA. Results: Overall, 112,310 patients who underwent rTHA were identified, 929 (0.83%) of whom sustained a PNI. Univariate analysis found that younger patients (p < 0.0001), females (p = 0.025), and those with a history of flexion contracture (0.65% vs. 0.22%, p = 0.005), hip dislocation (24.0% vs. 18.0%, p < 0.001), and spine conditions (4.8% vs. 2.7%, p < 0.001) had significantly higher rates of PNI. In-hospital complications associated with PNI included postoperative hematoma (2.6% vs. 1.2%, p < 0.0001), postoperative seroma (0.75% vs. 0.30%, p = 0.011), superficial wound dehiscence (0.65% vs. 0.23%, p = 0.008), and postoperative anemia (36.1% vs. 32.0%, p = 0.007). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that a history of pre-existing spine conditions (aOR: 1.7; 95%-CI: 1.3-2.4, p < 0.001), prior dislocation (aOR 1.5; 95%-CI: 1.3-1.7, p < 0.001), postoperative anemia (aOR 1.2; 95%-CI: 1.0-1.4, p = 0.01), and hematoma (aOR 2.1; 95%-CI: 1.4-3.2, p < 0.001) were associated with increased risk for PNI. Conclusions: Our findings align with the existing literature, affirming that sciatic nerve injury is the prevailing neuropathic complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Furthermore, we observed a 0.83% incidence of PNI following rTHA and identified pre-existing spine conditions, prior hip dislocation, postoperative anemia, or hematoma as risk factors. Orthopedic surgeons may use this information to guide their discussion of PNI following rTHA, especially in high-risk patients.

Project description:BackgroundHyponatraemia, defined as a serum sodium [Na] concentration below 135 mmol/L, is common following surgery. As inpatient peri-operative stays shorten, there is a need to recognise pre-operative risk factors for post-operative hyponatraemia and complications associated with a peri-operative drop in Na. This audit aimed to investigate the prevalence of, risk factors for, and complications associated with hyponatraemia following elective primary hip and knee arthroplasty.MethodsData were collected within a retrospective audit of inpatient complications and unplanned reattendance or readmission at hospital in consecutive elective primary hip and knee arthroplasty patients in a single high throughput elective primary joint unit. The hospital's electronic database identified 1000 patients who were admitted electively between February 2012 and June 2013 under the care of a single consultant orthopaedic surgeon for either total hip arthroplasty, total knee arthroplasty, or uni-compartmental knee arthroplasty. Groups were compared using appropriate tests, including chi-square analysis (or Fisher's exact test), Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Wilcoxin signed-rank test. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine factors associated with hyponatraemia.ResultsOf the total 1000 patients, 217 (21.7%) developed post-operative hyponatraemia. Of these, 177 (81.6%) had mild (Na 130-134 mmol/L), 37 (17.1%) had moderate (Na 125-129 mmol/L), and 3 (1.4%) had severe (Na < 125 mmol/L) hyponatraemia. In multivariate analysis, age, pre-operative Na, and fasting glucose on day 1 remained significantly associated with having hyponatraemia post-operatively. There were no significant differences in reattendance at emergency departments and/or readmission within 90 days between those who had post-operative hyponatraemia whilst in hospital (39/217 = 18.0%) and those who did not (103/783 = 13.2%), or between those who were discharged with hyponatraemia (18/108 = 16.7%) and those discharged with normal Na (124/880 = 14.1%).ConclusionApproximately one fifth of elective joint arthroplasty patients had post-operative hyponatraemia. In these patients, older age, lower pre-operative Na and higher fasting glucose predicted post-operative hyponatraemia. We found no evidence that those discharged with hyponatraemia had more reattendance at emergency departments or readmission to hospital. We suggest that otherwise well patients with mild hyponatraemia can safely be discharged and followed up in the community.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Postoperative delirium is a common complication following major surgeries, leading to a variety of adverse effects. However, there is a paucity of literatures studying the incidence and risk factors associated with delirium after primary elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a large-scale national database. METHODS:A retrospective database analysis was performed based on Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2009 to 2014. Patients who underwent primary elective THA were included. Patient demographics, preoperative comorbidities, length of hospital stay (LOS), total charges, in-hospital mortality, and major and minor perioperative complications were evaluated. RESULTS:A total of 388,424 primary elective THAs were obtained from the NIS database, and the general incidence of delirium after THA was 0.90%. Patients with delirium after THA presented more preoperative comorbidities, longer LOS, extra hospital charges, and higher in-hospital mortality rate (P?<?0.001). Delirium following THA was associated with major complications during hospitalization including acute renal failure and pneumonia. Preoperative risk factors associated with postoperative delirium included advanced age, alcohol or drug abuse, depression, neurological disorders, psychoses, fluid and electrolyte disorders, diabetes, weight loss, deficiency anemia, coagulopathy, hypertension, congestive heart failure, valvular disease, pulmonary circulation disorders, peripheral vascular disorders, and renal failure. Both female and obesity were detected to be protective factors. CONCLUSIONS:The results of our study identified a relatively low incidence of delirium after primary elective THA, which is as reported in the NIS and not necessarily the surgical population as a whole. Postoperative delirium of THA was associated with increased preoperative comorbidities, LOS, total charges, in-hospital mortality, and major perioperative complications including acute renal failure and pneumonia. It is of benefit to study risk factors associated with postoperative delirium to moderate its consequences.
