Our objective was to assess healthcare utilization and complication rates after primary total knee/hip arthroplasty (TKA/THA) in people with spondyloarthritis (SpA) compared with people without SpA. We performed multivariable-adjusted logistic regression using the 1998-2014 US National Inpatient Sample (NIS), adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, gender, income, Deyo-Charlson comorbidity index, insurance payer, and the underlying diagnosis. The primary THA cohort consisted of 4,116,484 THAs (1.7% with SpA) and primary TKA cohort of 8,127,282 TKAs (1% with SpA). Compared with people without SpA, people with SpA had higher odds ratio (OR (95% confidence interval (CI)) of the following post-THA and post-TKA, respectively: (1) discharge to care facility, 1.16 (1.12, 1.21) and 1.14 (1.11, 1.18); (2) hospital stay > 3 days, 1.15 (1.11, 1.20) and 1.05 (1.01, 1.10); and (3) transfusion, 1.16 (1.12, 1.21) and 1.10 (1.05, 1.14); but lower odds of (1) mortality, 0.78 (0.64, 0.96) and 0.40 (0.19, 0.84); and (2) hospital charges above the median, 0.49 (0.46, 0.53) and 0.48 (0.45, 0.51). SpA was associated with higher odds of implant infection, 3.02 (2.27, 4.03) post-TKA, not post-THA. In-hospital revision rate did not differ. People with SpA utilize more healthcare services and have more complications post-THA/TKA. Interventions to reduce complications and associated utilization are needed. Key Points • People with spondyloarthritis utilized more healthcare services and had a higher risk of transfusion post-THA/TKA, compared with people without spondyloarthritis. • Spondyloarthritis was associated with lower in-hospital mortality rates after THA/TKA. • Spondyloarthritis was associated with a higher risk of implant infection after TKA, but not THA. • A pre-operative discussion with people with spondyloarthritis of possibly higher implant infection after TKA could lead to a more informed consent.
我们的目的是评估原发性全膝关节/髋关节置换术(TKA/THA)后脊柱关节炎(SpA)患者与非 SpA 患者的医疗保健利用和并发症发生率。我们使用 1998-2014 年美国国家住院患者样本(NIS)进行了多变量调整的逻辑回归,调整了年龄、种族/民族、性别、收入、Deyo-Charlson 合并症指数、保险支付者和潜在诊断。主要的 THA 队列包括 4116484 例 THA(1.7%患有 SpA)和 8127282 例 TKA(1%患有 SpA)。与非 SpA 患者相比,SpA 患者在以下 TKA 和 TKA 术后具有更高的优势比(OR(95%置信区间(CI)):(1)出院到护理机构,1.16(1.12,1.21)和 1.14(1.11,1.18);(2)住院时间>3 天,1.15(1.11,1.20)和 1.05(1.01,1.10);(3)输血,1.16(1.12,1.21)和 1.10(1.05,1.14);但(1)死亡率较低,0.78(0.64,0.96)和 0.40(0.19,0.84);(2)住院费用高于中位数,0.49(0.46,0.53)和 0.48(0.45,0.51)。SpA 与 TKA 术后而非 THA 术后的更高的植入物感染几率相关,OR 为 3.02(2.27,4.03)。住院期间的翻修率没有差异。SpA 患者在 TKA/THA 后需要更多的医疗服务和更多的并发症。需要采取干预措施来减少并发症和相关的利用。关键点•与非 SpA 患者相比,SpA 患者在 TKA/THA 后利用了更多的医疗服务,并且输血的风险更高。•THA/TKA 后,SpA 与较低的院内死亡率相关。•SpA 与 TKA 后较高的植入物感染风险相关,但与 THA 无关。•与 SpA 患者术前讨论 TKA 后可能更高的植入物感染风险,可以使患者获得更充分的知情同意。
