Patient-Reported Outcomes and Perioperative Complications of Total Hip Arthroplasty Following Joint Preservation Surgery for Hip Dysplasia
Tamaki, Tatsuya et al.Hip
Background
There is growing recognition of the importance of patient-reported outcome measures and assessment of patient satisfaction in the evaluation of outcomes following surgical interventions. This study aimed to evaluate patient-reported outcomes and complication rates after total hip arthroplasty following joint preservation surgery for hip dysplasia.
Methods
Patient-reported outcomes and complication rates of 85 hips with previous joint preservation surgery (salvage group) were compared with those of 1279 hips without joint preservation surgery (primary arthroplasty group). As a patient-reported outcome measure, the Japanese Orthopedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire was used to evaluate the hip condition both preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively. Operative data and postoperative (within 12 months) complications were investigated.
Results
The salvage group had a longer operative time (56.8 vs 44.9 minutes, P < .001) and a higher total complication rate (5.9% vs 1.1%, P < .001). Additionally, the salvage group exhibited a lower degree of improvement in the visual analog scale value for satisfaction (75.1 vs 83.1 mm, P = .011), the pain and movement category scores, and the total score of the Japanese Orthopedic Association Hip Disease Evaluation Questionnaire (14.2 vs 16.2, P = .031; 13.7 vs 16.0, P = .005; and 42.3 vs 47.9, P = .007, respectively) compared with the primary arthroplasty group.
Conclusion
This study demonstrated a lower rate of improvement in patient satisfaction and worse self-reported outcomes in the salvage group. Furthermore, these patients had a longer operative time and a higher risk of operative complications.
