背景:住院患者全髋关节(THA)和全膝关节置换术(TKA)受到SARS-CoV-2(COVID-19)大流行的影响。我们试图描述在这次大流行期间,在两个大型州卫生系统中,全关节置换术(TJA)向门诊环境的过渡。
方法:在1月1日之间接受主要选择性TJA的成年患者,2016年12月31日,2020年使用纽约全州规划和研究合作系统(SPARCS)和加利福尼亚州卫生保健获取和信息(HCAI)数据集进行了回顾性审查。每年住院和门诊病例量和患者人口统计,包括年龄,性别,种族,和付款人保险,被记录下来。使用描述性统计比较连续变量和分类变量。显著性设定为P<0.05。
结果:在2020年的纽约,TJA量减少了16%,因为住院的TJA减少了22,742例。这种损失的大部分(46.6%)被门诊TJA增加166%所抵消。在2020年的加利福尼亚州,TJA数量减少了20%,因为住院的TJA减少了34,114例。这种损失的大部分(37%)被门诊TJA增加47%所抵消。
结论:目前的研究表明,在加利福尼亚州和纽约州,在门诊进行TJA的比例显着增加。在这两个州,尽管2020年总TJA量减少,但门诊TJA量显着增加。
BACKGROUND: Inpatient total hip and total knee arthroplasty were substantially impacted by the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic. We sought to characterize the transition of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) to the outpatient setting in 2 large state health systems during this pandemic.
METHODS: Adult patients who underwent primary elective TJA between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2020 were retrospectively reviewed using the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System and
California Department of Health Care Access and Information datasets. Yearly inpatient and outpatient
case volumes and patient demographics, including age, sex, race, and payer coverage, were recorded. Continuous and categorical variables were compared using descriptive statistics. Significance was set at P < .05.
RESULTS: In New York during 2020, TJA volume decreased 16% because 22,742 fewer inpatient TJAs were performed. Much of this lost volume (46.6%) was offset by a 166% increase in outpatient TJA. In
California during 2020, TJA volume decreased 20% because 34,114 fewer inpatient TJAs were performed. Much of this lost volume (37%) was offset by a 47% increase in outpatient TJA.
CONCLUSIONS: This present study demonstrates a marked increase in the proportion of TJA being performed on an outpatient basis in both
California and New York. In both states, despite a decrease in overall TJA volume in 2020, outpatient TJA volume increased markedly.
METHODS: Therapeutic Level IV, Retrospective Cohort Study.
