Abstract
Introduction: Tobacco use elevates the incidence of postoperative complications and remains a key modifiable risk factor of perioperative surgical optimization. It remains unclear whether non-tobacco nicotine dependence confers an increased risk of surgical complications. This study evaluates postoperative complications in patients with non-tobacco nicotine dependence for total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
Methods: We queried the TriNetX health database using Current Procedural Terminology and International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) codes and identified two cohorts for evaluation. Cohort A was defined as patients who had a TKA; had a dependence on nicotine; did not have nicotine dependence to cigarettes, chewing tobacco, other tobacco products; and were between the ages of 35 and 90 years. Cohort B was defined as patients who had a TKA but did not have a dependence on nicotine or a personal history of nicotine dependence and were between the ages of 35 and 90 years.
Results: This study analyzed a total of 10,594 non-tobacco nicotine-dependent patients and 175,079 non-dependent patients who underwent TKA. In the analysis of propensity-matched cohorts, non-tobacco nicotine-dependent patients demonstrated an increased rate of various postoperative complications within 90 days. Dependent patients saw a significantly increased risk of infection after a procedure ( P < 0.001), deep vein thrombosis ( P < 0.001), pulmonary embolism ( P < 0.001), sepsis ( P = 0.0065), and prosthetic joint infection ( P = 0.0361) and a higher 3-year revision rate ( P = 0.0084).
Discussion: Non-tobacco nicotine dependence demonstrated an increased associated risk of postoperative surgical complications for patients undergoing TKA. Orthopaedic surgeons should consider evaluating non-tobacco nicotine dependence within their surgical optimization protocol.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons was established in the fall of 1993 by the Academy in response to its membership’s demand for a clinical review journal. Two issues were published the first year, followed by six issues yearly from 1994 through 2004. In September 2005, JAAOS began publishing monthly issues.
Each issue includes richly illustrated peer-reviewed articles focused on clinical diagnosis and management. Special features in each issue provide commentary on developments in pharmacotherapeutics, materials and techniques, and computer applications.
