However, like all arthroplasties, a post-surgical complication often arises. One of these complications, periprosthetic dislocation (PPD), requires revision and poses, therefore, a burden on both patients and healthcare providers. While PPD is understood to be a complication of RSA, it is unclear to what extent certain risk factors and co-morbidities predispose patients to post-RSA PPD. The purpose of this study was to identify and evaluate the impact of specific risk factors and co-morbidities that contribute to the development of PPD following RSA.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this retrospective study, we used the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2016-2019 to analyze the prevalence and impact of various risk factors and co-morbidities on the incidence of PPD following RSA. A univariate and subsequent multivariate logistic regression model was made to provide a descriptive association between variables that impact the rates of PPD after RSA.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The NIS database identified 59,925 patients, 1,000 of whom experienced a PPD while the remaining 58,825 were placed in the non-PPD group (controls). The PPD group consisted predominantly of females (53.10%) and Caucasians (86.30%). There was a higher incidence of tobacco-related disorders (P = 0.003), obesity (P < 0.001), morbid obesity (P < 0.001), liver cirrhosis (P < 0.001), and Parkinson's disease (PD) (P < 0.001) in PPD patients compared to controls.
