ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Opioid overprescribing has caused a substantial increase in opioid related deaths and billions of dollars in additional healthcare costs. Orthopaedic surgeons commonly prescribe opioids in the perioperative period; however, research has shown preoperative opioid use may be associated with worse postoperative outcomes. Despite this body of evidence, there are few studies investigating the association between preoperative opioid use and two-year outcomes after hand surgery. Materials and

methods:

This study evaluated two-year postoperative patient-reported outcomes in patients who used opioids prior to hand surgery, and those who did not. Patients completed pre and postoperative questionnaires including Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) domains, the Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (BMHQ), and other questionnaires related to pain, function, and satisfaction. 342 patients undergoing upper-extremity surgery were enrolled into a prospective orthopaedic surgery outcome registry, and 69.9% completed the follow-up surveys. Preoperative opioid use and its association to patient outcome scores was analyzed through bivariate analysis. Significant associations were further tested by multivariable analysis to determine independent predictors.

Results:

Preoperative opioid use was associated with worse two-year PROMIS Fatigue (p â€‹< â€‹.01), PROMIS Anxiety (p â€‹< â€‹.01), PROMIS Depression (p â€‹< â€‹.01), SSQ-8 (p â€‹= â€‹.01), BMHQ (p â€‹= â€‹.01), NPS Hand (p â€‹< â€‹.01) and MODEMS met expectations (p â€‹= â€‹.03). No significant differences were observed in patient-reported outcome change scores. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that preoperative opioid use was predictive of worse two-year PROMIS Fatigue (p â€‹< â€‹.01), PROMIS Anxiety (p â€‹< â€‹.01), PROMIS Depression (p â€‹= â€‹.02), BMHQ (p â€‹= â€‹.01), SSQ-8 (p â€‹< â€‹.01), NPS Hand (p â€‹= â€‹.02) and MODEMS met expectations (p â€‹< â€‹.01).

Conclusion:

Preoperative opioid use was associated with worse patient-reported outcomes two years after elective hand surgery. There was no significant difference in the improvement from baseline between the two groups. Clinically significant differences were observed in follow-up PROMIS Anxiety, BMHQ and NPS - Hand scores. Clinically significant change scores were noted in both groups for PROMIS PF, PROMIS PI, PROMIS SS, BMHQ, and NPS - Hand.
