The Association Between Surgeon Volume and Dislocation After Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Nationwide Evaluation of 5,106 Orthopaedic Surgeons.
Introduction: The relationship between surgeon volume and risk of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is debated. This study sought to characterize this association and assess patient outcomes using a nationwide patient and surgeon registry.
Methods: The Premier Healthcare Database was queried for adult primary elective THA patients from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2019. Annual surgeon volume and 90-day risk of dislocation were modeled using multivariable logistic regression with restricted cubic splines. Bootstrap analysis identified a threshold annual case volume, corresponding to the maximum decrease in dislocation risk. Surgeons with an annual volume greater than the threshold were deemed high volume, and those with an annual volume less than the threshold were low volume. Each surgeon within a given year was treated as a unique entity (surgeon-year unit). 90-day complications of patients treated by high-volume and low-volume surgeons were compared.
Results: From 2016 to 2019, 352,131 THAs were performed by 5,106 surgeons. The restricted cubic spline model demonstrated an inverse relationship between risk of dislocation and surgeon volume (threshold: 109 cases per year). A total of 9,967 (87.8%) low-volume surgeon-year units had individual dislocation rates lower than the average of the entire surgeon cohort. Patients treated by high-volume surgeons had decreased risk of dislocation (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.60; 95% CI, 0.54 to 0.67), periprosthetic fracture (aOR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.76 to 0.99), periprosthetic joint infection (aOR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.56 to 0.69), readmission (aOR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.67 to 0.73), and in-hospital death (aOR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.46 to 0.80).
Conclusion: While most of the low-volume surgeons had dislocation rates lower than the cohort average, increasing annual surgeon case volume was associated with a reduction in risk of dislocation after primary elective THA.
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.
