Therefore, it is difficult to ascertain whether this research methodology is being used to its full potential across all orthopedic subspecialties and geographies. Purpose: We sought to assess the distribution of prior health economics literature in orthopedic surgery across subspecialties and geographies. The secondary aim was to identify pertinent methodologic trends that may affect the conclusions drawn. Methods: A systematic review utilizing 3 electronic databases (Medline, Embase, and Web of Science) was performed. Inclusion criteria included prior systematic reviews assessing economic analyses across all orthopedic surgery subspecialities published between 2010 and April 24, 2021. The quality of evidence was assessed using the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Review tool. Data were qualitatively analyzed. Results: In the 44 studies included, arthroplasty (36.4%) and spine (31.8%) were the most represented subspecialties. Almost half of studies originated from the United States (45.5%), followed by the United Kingdom (18.2%). Health economic models were most commonly from the perspective of the health care or hospital system (40.5%), followed by the societal perspective (23.5%), and the payer perspective (14.8%). Conclusions: The study of value in orthopedic surgery is not uniformly leveraged across all subspecialties and geographies. Methodologically, the societal perspective was inadequately represented, despite orthopedic pathologies often incurring significant indirect costs (eg, time off work, rehabilitation expenses).","PeriodicalId":35357,"journal":{"name":"Hss Journal","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135316215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Arthroscopy can also help to assess the articular surface but is performed in only 1% of ankle fracture cases. Purpose: We aimed to investigate (1) whether arthroscopy-assisted ORIF (AORIF) would lead to improved postoperative functional outcomes compared to conventional ORIF and (2) whether differences in postoperative complication rates exist between these 2 techniques. Methods: A systematic review was performed; 2 researchers independently searched the online databases of PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Cochrane, and Google Scholar. All studies that directly investigated the outcomes of AORIF versus conventional ORIF in the treatment of ankle fractures and contained quantitative data were eligible for inclusion. The Cochrane tools for bias assessment were applied independently by 2 researchers. Results: Six articles (2 randomized controlled trials and 4 retrospective cohort studies) were included in this systematic review. The meta-analysis of functional outcome scores resulted in a standardized mean difference of 0.6 (confidence interval [CI]: [0.3, 0.9]) favoring AORIF, after excluding 2 studies due to missing standard deviations. The overall complication rate was similar between the 2 groups, with a pooled odds ratio of 1.1 (CI: [0.4, 3.0]). Conclusion: The findings of this systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that AORIF might improve postoperative outcomes without increasing the complication rate when compared to conventional ORIF. However, due to the inherent clinical heterogeneity of the included studies, further well-designed randomized controlled trials are required.","PeriodicalId":35357,"journal":{"name":"Hss Journal","volume":"64 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135315695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of combining ACB and PACK block on analgesia and functional recovery following TKA. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 386 patients who underwent primary unilateral TKA at our institution from January 2020 to October 2022. Patients were divided into 3 groups and treated with PIA, ACB, or ACB combined with IPACK block, respectively. Primary outcomes were postoperative morphine consumption and visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores. Secondary outcomes included functional recovery, evaluated by knee range of motion, quadriceps strength, daily mobilization distance, and postoperative length of stay. Other outcomes included incidence of complications. Results: Patients in the ACB + IPACK group had significantly less morphine consumption on postoperative day 1 and during hospitalization than patients in the PIA and ACB groups. Furthermore, the ACB + IPACK group had significantly lower VAS scores at rest and during motion at 6, 12, and 24 hours postoperatively (but not at other time points), better knee range of motion on postoperative days 1 and 2 (but not day 3), and a greater daily mobilization distance on postoperative day 1 (but not days 2 and 3). The ACB + IPACK group had significantly lower incidences of postoperative nausea and vomiting than the PIA and ACB groups. Conclusion: This retrospective cohort study suggests that a combination of ACB and IPACK block may have a greater effect than PIA or ACB alone on analgesia following TKA, while providing better functional recovery. Further study is warranted.","PeriodicalId":35357,"journal":{"name":"Hss Journal","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135412879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To date, no meta-analyses have been performed to consolidate findings related to racial and ethnic disparities in hip fracture care. Purpose: We sought to examine associations between racial or ethnic identity and several metrics of hip fracture care. Methods: For a systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and SPORTDiscus databases in December 2021 for articles examining racial and ethnic disparities in hip fracture surgery among White, Black, Hispanic, Asian, Pacific Islander (PI), and American Indian/Alaska Native (AIAN) patients. Twenty-three studies reported time to surgery (TTS), complications, mortality, length of stay (LOS), discharge disposition, readmissions, or reoperations. Meta-analyses were conducted for outcomes for which there were at least 3 comparable studies with requisite data available. Results: Compared with White patients, Black patients experienced greater rates of TTS longer than 2 days, 30-day complication, 90-day readmission, 1-year reoperation, and longer LOS, though odds of 30-day mortality were reduced. Hispanic patients had higher 90-day complication rates and longer LOS but lower risk of mortality and nonhome discharge than other racial and ethnic groups. Time to surgery of longer than 2 days was more common among Asian patients, though mortality, nonhome discharge, and readmission rates were lower. There were higher mortality rates in White patients compared with Hispanic patients at all timepoints and compared with Black patients until 1 year following surgery, when rates were higher among Black patients. Conclusions: This systematic review and meta-analysis found evidence of disparities in hip fracture surgery, with minority patients facing greater rates of surgical delay and perioperative complications. Even though the studies may not have been uniform in defining race or ethnicity or in accounting for the effects of systemic racism, these findings suggest that concerted efforts are needed to understand these gaps and promote equity in hip fracture care.","PeriodicalId":35357,"journal":{"name":"Hss Journal","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136212320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Novel motor-sparing blocks, the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) block, have shown efficacy in hip surgery. Purpose: We sought to investigate the analgesic benefits of these novel blocks in terms of opioid-sparing and discharge efficiency. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study with propensity score matching of 224 patients who underwent ambulatory elective unilateral hip arthroscopy. One group received a combined PENG and LFCN block (PENG/LFCN, n = 86), while a second group received only a PENG block (n = 26). A control group (n = 112) received no blocks. The primary outcome was postanesthesia care unit (PACU) mean opioid consumption. Secondary outcomes were maximum numeric rating scale (NRS) pain score, intravenous rescue analgesia, and PACU readiness-for-discharge times. Results: The PENG/LFCN-block group required significantly less opioids than the control group in the PACU (25.98 ± 13.04 vs 14.58 ± 5.77, respectively) and were discharged earlier 2.72 ± 1.16 vs 4.42 ± 1.63 hours, respectively). The combined PENG/LFCN group also used less intravenous rescue opioids than the control group (0.47 ± 1.18 vs 1.44 ± 2.1 mg, respectively) and showed a significant difference in the highest NRS pain scores than the control group (6.01 ± 2.38 vs 6.77 ± 2.1 respectively). The PENG block alone group did not show a significant difference in opioid reduction (21.95 ± 15.83 vs 27.72 ± 15.01, respectively). Conclusions: This retrospective study found that in patients who underwent ambulatory elective unilateral hip arthroscopy, a combined PENG and LFCN block was associated with expedited PACU discharge and a clinically significant reduction in postoperative opioid use.

As skeletal health is critical to success of orthopedic surgery, the gut microbiome may be a modifiable factor associated with postoperative outcomes. For spine fusion surgery in particular, de novo bone formation and sufficient bone mineral density are essential for successful outcomes. Given the prevalence and complexity of these procedures, the identification of novel factors that may be related to operative success is important. Questions/purposes: We sought to investigate how the composition of the microbiota related to bone health in a focused spinal fusion surgery cohort. Methods: We investigated the composition of the microbiome in a cohort of 31 patients prior to spinal fusion surgery, as well as changes in the microbiome over 6 weeks postoperatively. Preoperative areal bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Results: Composition of gut microbiota differed among spinal fusion patients with low bone mass ( T-score ≤ −1.0) and those with normal BMD ( P = .03). There was no significant change in composition of the gut microbiota between preoperative evaluation and 6 weeks postoperatively. Conclusions: Our findings in this small sample suggest there may be a relationship between BMD and composition of the gut microbiome in patients who undergo spinal fusion surgery. Further work is needed to investigate these relationships as well as potential interventions to foster a favorable microbial composition in spinal fusion surgery patients.","PeriodicalId":35357,"journal":{"name":"Hss Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134957844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Purpose: Using the area deprivation index (ADI), a validated, weighted index of material deprivation and poverty (a 0%-to-100% scale, with higher percentages indicating greater disadvantage), we sought to evaluate whether there are associations in shoulder arthroplasty patients between higher ADI and rates of (1) medical complications, (2) emergency department (ED) utilizations, (3) readmissions, and (4) costs. Methods: We queried the PearlDiver nationwide database for patients who had undergone primary shoulder arthroplasty from 2010 to 2020. Patients from regions associated with high ADI (95%+) were 1:1 propensity matched to a comparison group by age, sex, and Elixhauser Comorbidity Index. This yielded 49,440 patients in total. Outcomes included 90-day complications, ED utilizations, readmissions, and costs. Logistic regression models computed odds ratios (ORs) of ADI on the dependent variables. P values of < .05 were significant. Results: Patients from high ADI regions showed higher rates and odds of complications than those in the comparison group (10.84% vs 9.45%; OR: 1.10), including acute kidney injuries (1.73% vs 1.38%; OR: 1.23), urinary tract infections (3.19% vs 2.80%; OR: 1.13), and respiratory failures (0.49% vs 0.33%; OR: 1.44), but not increased ED visits (2.66% vs 2.71%; OR: 0.99) or readmissions (3.07% vs 2.96%; OR: 1.03).
