Abstract Background The aim of the present study was to compare the outcomes of patients who underwent different sequences of ipsilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods We retrospectively identified 47 patients who underwent TKA followed by ipsilateral THA (THA-TKA) and 36 patients who received THA subsequent to ipsilateral TKA (TKA-THA) for rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis between January 2008 and April 2014. Twenty-eight patients were selected for each group after case-control matching with preoperative demographics and protheses of THA. Clinical scores, radiographic results, complication rates, and survivorship were compared. The median duration of follow-up was 110 (range 80–149) months. Results Both groups showed significant improvement in Harris Hip Scores, Knee Society Score, and Short Form-12 at the last follow-up compared to baseline (p < .001). At the last follow-up, all clinical scores were actually lower in the THA-TKA group, but those differences were not statistically significant. Otherwise, there was no significant difference in radiological alignment or complication rates. The survivorship of THA and TKA in the THA-TKA group was 94.7 and 95.7%, respectively, compared with 92.4 and 100.0% in the TKA-THA group at 8 years (log rank, p = .939 and .187). Conclusions Patients who underwent ipsilateral THA and TKA with different sequences achieved similar favorable outcomes. Total joint arthroplasty can be performed safely with excellent outcomes in patients with a history of prior ipsilateral THA or TKA. Trial registration The trial was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000035147) dated 2 August 2020.

Twenty-eight patients were selected for each group after case-control matching with preoperative demographics and protheses of THA.

At the last follow-up, all clinical scores were actually lower in the THA-TKA group, but those differences were not statistically significant. Otherwise, there was no significant difference in radiological alignment or complication rates. The survivorship of THA and TKA in the THA-TKA group was 88.2% and 87.4%, respectively, compared with 75.0% and 95.7% in the TKA-THA group at 10 years (log rank, p = .939 and .187).Conclusions: Patients who underwent ipsilateral THA and TKA with different sequences achieved similar favorable outcomes. Total joint arthroplasty can be performed safely with excellent outcomes in patients with a history of prior ipsilateral THA or TKA.

Aim: To evaluate the prevalence of self-directed cannabidiol (CBD) use in patients with end-stage degenerative hip and knee arthritis who underwent total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty. Materials & methods: Anonymous surveys for 109 patients were completed at 6 weeks follow-up after either total hip arthroplasty or total knee arthroplasty at a single tertiary care US orthopedic hospital. Results: Within the perioperative window encompassing both preoperative and postoperative periods, 22% (95% CI: 14–30%) of patients used CBD. Conclusion: There was no difference in pain satisfaction between patients who used CBD and patients who did not. Given high rates of self-directed perioperative CBD use and the mixed body of evidence, further research is needed to better understand whether CBD is safe and effective.

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of major psychiatric illness on patient outcomes after total joint arthroplasty. Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of a major psychiatric disorder undergoing total joint arthroplasty were retrospectively matched one-to-one with a cohort without such a diagnosis. Major psychiatric disorder in the registry was identified by diagnosis of anxiety, mood, or a psychotic disorder. Primary outcome of interest included perioperative Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Secondary outcomes included EuroQol-5D, adverse events, length of stay, 30-day readmission, and discharge destination. Results: Total number of patients were 1828. The total hip arthroplasty (37.80 ± 17.91, p = 0.023) and the total knee arthroplasty psychiatric group (43.38 ± 18.41, p = 0.050) had significantly lower pre-operative WOMAC scores. At 3 months, the total hip arthroplasty (76.74 ± 16.94, p = 0.036) and total knee arthroplasty psychiatric group (71.09 ± 18.64, p < 0.01) again had significantly lower 3-month post-operative WOMAC score compared to the control groups. However, outcomes at 1 year were difficult to interpret, as patients with major psychiatric conditions had an extremely high loss to follow-up. Compared to the control groups, the total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty psychiatric group had an increased length of stay by 1.43 days (p < 0.01) and 0.77 days, respectively (p = 0.05). Similarly, the psychiatric groups were discharged directly home less often (total hip arthroplasty 86.9%, p = 0.024 and total knee arthroplasty 87.6%, p = 0.022) than the control groups. Conclusion: Patients with the diagnosis of a major psychiatric illness have an increased length of stay and are more likely to require a rehabilitation facility, compared to the control groups. Arguably, of utmost importance, there is a very high rate of loss to follow-up within the psychiatric groups. As such, we recommend these patients should be treated for their diagnosis prior to total joint arthroplasty. Furthermore, importance of clinical follow-up should be emphasized carefully.

AbstractMeasuring patient satisfaction and surgical outcomes following total joint arthroplasty remains controversial with most tools failing to account for both surgeon and patient satisfaction in regard to outcomes. The purpose of this study was to use “The Forgotten Joint Score” questionnaire to assess clinical outcomes comparing patients who underwent a total hip arthroplasty (THA) with those who underwent a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We conducted a retrospective review of patients who underwent primary THA or TKA between September 2016 and September 2019 and responded to the Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12) questionnaire at least at one of three time periods (3, 12, and 21 months), postoperatively. An electronic patient rehabilitation application was used to administer the questionnaire. Collected variables included demographic data (age, gender, race, body mass index [BMI], and smoking status), length of stay (LOS), and FJS-12 scores. t-test and chi-square were used to determine significance. Linear regression was used to account for demographic differences. A p-value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Of the 2,359 patients included in this study, 1,469 underwent a THA and 890 underwent a TKA. Demographic differences were observed between the two groups with the TKA group being older, with higher BMI, higher American Society of Anesthesiologists scores, and longer LOS. Accounting for the differences in demographic data, THA patients consistently had higher scores at 3 months (53.72 vs. 24.96; p < 0.001), 12 months (66.00 vs. 43.57; p < 0.001), and 21 months (73.45 vs. 47.22; p < 0.001). FJS-12 scores for patients that underwent THA were significantly higher in comparison to TKA patients at 3, 12, and 21 months postoperatively. Increasing patient age led to a marginal increase in FJS-12 score in both cohorts. With higher FJS-12 scores, patients who underwent THA may experience a more positive evolution with their surgery postoperatively than those who had TKA.
