The safety of outpatient total shoulder arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To meet the increasing demands of total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) while reducing its financial burden, there has been a shift toward outpatient surgery. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the safety of outpatient TSA.

Methods

The primary objective was to compare re-admission rates and postoperative complications in outpatient versus inpatient TSA. The secondary objectives were functional outcomes and costs. PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Science were searched until March 28, 2020. The inclusion criteria were studies reporting at least complications or readmission rates within a period of 30 days or more.

Results

Ten level III retrospective studies were included with 7637 (3.8%) and 192,025 (96.2%) patients underwent outpatient and inpatient TSA, respectively. Outpatient TSA had relatively younger and healthier patients. There were no differences between outpatient and inpatient arthroplasty for 30- and 90-day readmissions. Furthermore, unadjusted comparisons demonstrated significantly less total and major surgical complications, less total, major, and minor medical complications in favour of outpatient TSA. However, subgroup analyses demonstrated that there were no significant differences in all complication if the studies had matched controls and regardless of data source (database or nondatabase studies). The revision rates were similar between both groups at a 12-24 months follow-up. Two studies reported a significant reduction in costs in favour of outpatient TSA.

Conclusion

This study highlights that outpatient TSA could be a safe and effective alternative to inpatient TSA in appropriately selected patients. It was evident that outpatient TSA does not lead to increased readmissions, complications, or revision rates. A potential additional benefit of outpatient TSA was cost reduction.

Project description:Hypothesis and backgroundThere is no differences in abduction, internal rotation, or external rotation strength after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) with or without subscapularis repair. Repair of the subscapularis can be effective in the setting of rTSA. However, consensus has yet to be reached on whether postoperative strength after rTSA differs based on subscapularis management. The purpose of this review is to evaluate shoulder strength outcomes after rTSA with and without subscapularis tendon repair.MethodsA comprehensive literature review was conducted using the key terms "subscapularis" AND "reverse total shoulder arthroplasty" AND "muscle strength" in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Reviews and Trials, and Scopus. Original, English-language studies evaluating shoulder strength outcomes after rTSA published from January 1, 2000, to present were evaluated. Strength outcomes reported included abduction strength (kg) and internal rotation strength (kg) using an electric spring balance and external rotation strength (lb) using a handheld dynamometer. Heterogeneity of data in the included studies did not allow for meta-analysis.ResutsThe search yielded 4253 unique results, which were screened for inclusion according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Two articles met eligibility criteria and were included in the final full-text review. A total of 267 shoulders were represented, 111 with subscapularis repair and 156 without subscapularis repair. No significant differences in abduction (P = .39), internal rotation (P = .09), and external rotation (P = .463) strength were observed between subscapularis repair and nonrepair groups.ConclusionThere were no differences in abduction, internal rotation, or external rotation strength after rTSA with or without subscapularis repair. The literature on postoperative strength outcomes after rTSA is limited, and further study in this area is warranted.

Project description:BackgroundBoth modular and monoblock tapered fluted titanium (TFT) stems are increasingly being used for revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA). However, the differences between the two designs in clinical outcomes and complications are not yet clear. Here, we intend to compare the efficacy and safety of modular versus monoblock TFT stems in rTHA.MethodsPubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched to include studies comparing modular and monoblock implants in rTHA. Data on the survivorship of stems, postoperative hip function, and complications were extracted following inclusion criteria. Inverse variance and Mantel-Haenszel methods in Review Manager (version 5.3 from Cochrane Collaboration) were used to evaluate differences between the two groups.ResultsTen studies with a total of 2188 hips (1430 modular and 758 monoblock stems) were finally included. The main reason for the revision was aseptic loosening. Paprosky type III was the most common type in both groups. Both stems showed similar re-revision rates (modular vs monoblock: 10.3% vs 9.5%, P = 0.80) and Harris Hip Scores (WMD = 0.43, P = 0.46) for hip function. The intraoperative fracture rate was 11.6% and 5.0% (P = 0.0004) for modular and monoblock stems, respectively. The rate of subsidence > 10 mm was significantly higher in the monoblock group (4.5% vs 1.0%, P = 0.003). The application of extended trochanteric osteotomy was more popular in monoblock stems (22.7% vs 17.5%, P = 0.003). The incidence of postoperative complications such as periprosthetic femoral fracture and dislocation was similar between both stems.ConclusionsNo significant difference was found between modular and monoblock tapered stems as regards postoperative hip function, re-revision rates, and complications. Severe subsidence was more frequent in monoblock stems while modular ones were at higher risk of intraoperative fracture.Level of evidenceLevel III, systematic review of randomized control and non-randomized studies.Trial registrationWe registered our study in the international prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO) (CRD42020213642).
