The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms in patients undergoing shoulder surgery using the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Depression and Anxiety computer adaptive tests, and to determine the factors associated with more severe symptoms. Additionally, we sought to determine whether PROMIS Depression and Anxiety were associated with functional outcomes after shoulder surgery. This was a retrospective analysis of 293 patients from an urban population who underwent elective shoulder surgery from 2015 to 2018. Survey questionnaires included preoperative and two-year postoperative data. Bivariate analysis was used to identify associations and multivariable analysis was used to control for confounding variables.Aims
Methods
The aim of the present study was to compare the 30- and 90-day
re-admission rates and complication rates of outpatient and inpatient
total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). The United States Medicare Standard Analytical Files database
was questioned to identify patients who had undergone outpatient
or inpatient TSA between 2005 and 2012. Patient characteristics
were compared between the two groups using chi-squared analysis. Multivariate
logistic regression analysis was used to control for differences
in baseline patient characteristics and to compare the two groups
in terms of post-operative complications within 90 days and re-admission
within 30 days and 90 days.Aims
