Perioperative hospital adverse events represent a significant outcome that is often overlooked. Even "minor events" such as fever or tachycardia may lead to significant costs due to workup tests, interconsultations, and/or increased length of stay (LOS). The optimal timing of bilateral direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty (DAA-THA) remains unsettled. Consequently, we wanted to compare hospital LOS, discharge disposition, hospital adverse events (major and minor), and transfusion rates between simultaneous and staged bilateral DAA-THA.
A retrospective chart review was conducted on a consecutive series of 347 primary bilateral DAA-THAs (204 patients) performed by 2 surgeons in a single institution (2010-2016). The hips finally included were categorized as simultaneous (Sim-n = 61), staged 1 (Stg1-n = 143), or staged 2 (Stg2-n = 143). We also compared simultaneous with staged surgeries performed ≤1 and >1 year apart. Baseline demographics, LOS, discharge disposition, hospital adverse events, and transfusions were assessed.
The simultaneous group had significantly younger patients and a higher proportion of males when compared with the staged groups and showed significant longer LOS [2.61 (Sim) vs 2.06 (Stg1) vs 1.63 (Stg2) days, P < .001], lower proportion of home discharge [77% (Sim) vs 91.6% (Stg1) vs 96.5% (Stg2), P < .001], as well as higher (overall) rate of adverse events [31.1% (Sim) vs 28.7% (Stg1) vs 14.0% (Stg2), P = .003] and transfusions [45.9% (Sim) vs 6.3% (Stg1) vs 7.0% (Stg2), P < .001]. However, most transfusions were autologous [37.7% (Sim) vs 3.5% (Stg1) vs 0% (Stg2), P < .001].
Our data show that bilateral DAA-THAs performed in a staged fashion, rather than simultaneously, have a shorter hospital LOS and decreased rates of adverse events and overall transfusions. Notwithstanding, simultaneous surgery should still be considered an option in selected patients.

围手术期医院不良事件是一个重要的结局,但往往被忽视。即使是“小事件”,如发热或心动过速,也可能由于检查、会诊和/或住院时间延长而导致显著的费用。双侧直接前方入路全髋关节置换术(DAA-THA)的最佳时机仍未确定。因此,我们比较了同期双侧和分期双侧 DAA-THA 之间的住院时间、出院处置、医院不良事件(主要和次要)和输血率。
对 2 名医生在一家机构连续进行的 347 例双侧初次 DAA-THA(204 例患者)进行回顾性图表分析(2010-2016 年)。最终纳入的髋关节分为同期(Sim-n=61)、分期 1(Stg1-n=143)和分期 2(Stg2-n=143)。我们还比较了同期与≤1 年和>1 年的分期手术。评估了基线人口统计学、住院时间、出院处置、医院不良事件和输血。
同期组患者年龄明显小于分期组,男性比例也明显高于分期组,且住院时间明显延长[2.61 天(Sim)vs 2.06 天(Stg1)vs 1.63 天(Stg2),P<.001],出院回家的比例较低[77%(Sim)vs 91.6%(Stg1)vs 96.5%(Stg2),P<.001],以及更高的(总体)不良事件发生率[31.1%(Sim)vs 28.7%(Stg1)vs 14.0%(Stg2),P=0.003]和输血率[45.9%(Sim)vs 6.3%(Stg1)vs 7.0%(Stg2),P<.001]。然而,大多数输血是自体的[37.7%(Sim)vs 3.5%(Stg1)vs 0%(Stg2),P<.001]。
我们的数据表明,分期进行双侧 DAA-THA 比同期进行的手术具有更短的住院时间,且不良事件和总输血率较低。尽管如此,同期手术仍应作为某些患者的选择。
