Abstract Aim To describe short and longer-term mortality following major lower extremity amputation (LEA) by diabetes status over two time periods. Methods A retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent major LEA between 2004 and 2013 was conducted based on linkage of national population-based hospital records and a register of people with diagnosed diabetes. Post-operative mortality was estimated at 30 days, one year and where available, five years. Using logistic regression models, we estimated the odds of death associated with diabetes adjusted for age, sex and socio-economic status within these time points compared to the non-diabetic population stratified by type of diabetes and five-year calendar periods. Results There were a total of 5436 people who received an amputation during the study period of whom approximately 40% had diabetes. Overall mortality for the 2004-8 and 2009-13 cohorts respectively was not significantly different at 7.9% and 7.3% at 30 days and 31% and 27% at one year. Almost 64% of the 2004-8 cohort were dead within five years. The only statistically significantly associations between diabetes and mortality were observed within five year follow-up of the 2004-8 cohort with odds ratios (95% CI) compared to the non-diabetic population of 1.62 (1.17, 2.26) for type 1 diabetes and 1.38 (1.14, 1.66) for type 2 diabetes. Conclusions An adverse association between diabetes and mortality after LEA only became apparent in longer term follow-up.

Background: We hypothesized that perioperative HbA1c influenced the pattern and outcomes of Lower Extremity Amputation (LEA). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted for all patients who underwent LEA between 2000 and 2013. Patients were categorized into 5 groups according to their perioperative HbA1c values [Group 1 (<6.5%), Group 2 (6.5-7.4%), Group 3 (7.5-8.4%), Group 4 (8.5-9.4%) and Group 5 (≥9.5%)]. We identified 848 patients with LEA; perioperative HbA1c levels were available in 547 cases (Group 1: 18.8%, Group 2: 17.7%, Group 3: 15.0%, Group 4: 13.5% and Group 5: 34.9%). Major amputation was performed in 35%, 32%, 22%, 10.8% and 13.6%, respectively. Results: The overall mortality was 36.5%; of that one quarter occurred during the index hospitalization. Mortality was higher in Group 1 (57.4%) compared with Groups 2-5 (46.9%, 38.3%, 36.1% and 31.2%, respectively, p=0.001). Cox regression analysis showed that poor glycemic control (Group 4 and 5) had lower risk of mortality post-LEA [hazard ratio 0.57 (95% CI 0.35-0.93) and hazard ratio 0.46 (95% CI 0.31-0.69)]; this mortality risk persisted even after adjustment for age and sex but was statistically insignificant. The rate of LEA was greater among poor glycemic control patients; however, the mortality was higher among patients with tight control. Conclusion: The effects of HbA1c on the immediate and long-term LEA outcomes and its therapeutic implications need further investigation.
