%X <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Revision hip and knee total joint arthroplasty (TJA) carries a high burden of postoperative complications, including surgical site infections (SSI), venous thromboembolism (VTE), reoperation, and readmission, which negatively affect postoperative outcomes and patient satisfaction. Socioeconomic area-level composite indices such as the area deprivation index (ADI) are increasingly important measures of social determinants of health (SDoH). This study aims to determine the potential association between ADI and SSI, VTE, reoperation, and readmission occurrence 90 days following revision TJA.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>1047 consecutive revision TJA patients were retrospectively reviewed. Complications, including SSI, VTE, reoperation, and readmission, were combined into one dependent variable. ADI rankings were extracted using residential zip codes and categorized into quartiles. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed to analyze the association of ADI as an independent factor for complication following revision TJA.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Depression (p = 0.034) and high ASA score (p < 0.001) were associated with higher odds of a combined complication postoperatively on univariate logistic regression. ADI was not associated with the occurrence of any of the complications recorded following surgery (p = 0.092). ASA remained an independent risk factor for developing postoperative complications on multivariate analysis.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>An ASA score of 3 or higher was significantly associated with higher odds of developing postoperative complications. Our findings suggest that ADI alone may not be a sufficient tool for predicting postoperative outcomes following revision TJA, and other area-level indices should be further investigated as potential markers of social determinants of health.
