ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this study is to further characterize the volume dependence of facilities and surgeons on morbidity and mortality after total hip arthroplasty (THA).METHODS:
Adults who underwent THA from 2009 to 2014 were identified using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification and Procedural codes in the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System database. Complication rates were compared across surgeon and facility volumes using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression controlling for factors such as the Social Deprivation Index. Surgeon and facility volumes were compared between the low and high volume using cutoffs established by prior research.RESULTS:
In total, 99,832 patients were included. Low volume facilities had higher rates of readmission, urinary tract infection (UTI), acute renal failure, pneumonia, surgical site infection (SSI), cellulitis, wound complications, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), in-hospital mortality, and revision. Low volume surgeons had higher rates of readmission, UTI, acute renal failure, pneumonia, SSI, acute respiratory failure, pulmonary embolism, cellulitis, wound complications, in-hospital mortality, cardiorespiratory arrest, DVT, and revision. African Americans, Hispanics, and those with federal insurance had increased rates of readmission. Those with ≥1 Charlson comorbidities or from areas of higher social deprivation had increased incidence of treatment by low volume surgeons and facilities.CONCLUSION:
Both low volume facilities and surgeons performing primary THA have higher rates of readmission, UTI, acute renal failure, pneumonia, SSI, cellulitis, wound complications, DVT, in-hospital mortality, and revision. Demographic disparities exist between who is treated at low vs high volume surgeons and facilities placing those groups at higher risks for complications.Palavras-chave
