The purpose of this study was to determine the association between prior sleeve gastrectomy in patients undergoing primary total hip and knee arthroplasty, and 90-day complications, incidence of revision arthroplasty, and patient-reported outcome scores at final follow-up. This is a retrospective, single-centre analysis. Patients undergoing primary hip or knee arthroplasty with a prior sleeve gastrectomy were eligible for inclusion (n = 80 patients). A morbidly obese control group was established from the same institutional registry using a 1:2 match, for cases:controls with arthroplasty based on propensity score using age, sex, pre-sleeve gastrectomy BMI, Current Procedural Terminology code to identify anatomical location, and presurgical haemoglobin A1C. Outcomes included 90-day complications, incidence of revision arthroplasty, and patient-reported outcome scores at final follow-up. Multivariable logistic regressions evaluated associations of underlying preoperative demographic and treatment characteristics with outcomes.Aims
Methods
The purpose of this study was to assess early physical function
after total hip or knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA), and the correlation
between patient-reported outcome measures, physical performance
and actual physical activity (measured by actigraphy). A total of 80 patients aged 55 to 80 years undergoing THA or
TKA for osteoarthritis were included in this prospective cohort
study. The main outcome measure was change in patient reported hip
or knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (HOOS/KOOS) from
pre-operatively until post-operative day 13 (THA) or 20 (TKA). Secondary measures
were correlations to objectively assessed change in physical performance
(paced-walk, chair-stand, stair-climb tests) at day 14 (THA) or
21 (TKA) and actual physical activity (actigraphy) measured at day
12 and 13 (THA) or 19 and 20 (TKA). Aims
