Thirty-Day Outcomes After Bilateral Total Hip Arthroplasty in a Nationwide Cohort

BACKGROUND: Approximately 42% of patients with end-stage osteoarthritis have bilateral disease. Although bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) is physiologically demanding, certain patients may benefit from simultaneous rather than staged bilateral procedures. This study examines the intraoperative...

description BACKGROUND: Approximately 42% of patients with end-stage osteoarthritis have bilateral disease. Although bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) is physiologically demanding, certain patients may benefit from simultaneous rather than staged bilateral procedures. This study examines the intraoperative differences and 30-day outcomes in patients receiving bilateral THA compared with those who underwent unilateral THA. METHODS: Patients undergoing THA were selected from the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database from 2008 to 2015. Patients were selected according to those with primary and concurrent coding for Current Procedural Terminology 27130. Thirty-day complications were recorded, and multivariate analyses were performed to determine whether concurrent THA was a risk factor for poor outcomes. RESULTS: A total of 97,804 patients and 587 patients who underwent unilateral and bilateral THA, respectively, were identified. Patients who underwent bilateral procedures were younger (57.3 vs 64.6 years, P < .001), were of lower body mass index (29.2 vs 30.2, P < .001), and had fewer comorbidities than patients who underwent unilateral procedures. Length of stay was not increased for bilateral recipients (3.13 vs 2.93 days, P = .308), although fewer were discharged to home (62.8% vs 77.6%, P < .001). The bilateral recipients required postoperative transfusions at a higher rate (29.8% vs 10.9%, P < .001) and had an increased incidence of deep wound infections on univariate analysis (1.2% vs 0.3%, P = .002). There was no increased risk of superficial infection, medical complications, or thromboembolic events for the bilateral cohort. CONCLUSIONS: Although bilateral THA recipients are younger with fewer preoperative comorbidities, bilateral THA is associated with an increased rate of transfusion in a nationwide setting. With this knowledge, specific interventions should be instituted to target these procedure-specific risks.
