AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed demographics and outcomes of patients with and without depression undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) between 2001 and 2010 in the U.S.
- It found that depressed patients were generally younger and had a higher percentage of females compared to non-depressed patients, who had more African-Americans and fewer Caucasians.
- The research adds insights into how depression affects perioperative results for TKA, highlighting important trends in patient demographics and complications.
Article Abstract
We evaluate the patient demographics, perioperative outcomes, in-hospital complications, and assess recent national trends in clinically depressed and non-depressed patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Using the National Hospital Discharge Survey from 2001 and 2010, patients undergoing primary TKA in the United States were identified based upon the diagnosis of depression. Differences in gender, patient-demographics, comorbidities, complications, length of stay, and discharge disposition were analyzed. A total of 32,761 TKA patients were identified, consisting of 1,880 patients with a diagnosis of depression and 30,881 patients without. The depression group had an average age significantly younger than the non-depression cohort (p < 0.01). The depression group contained a significantly greater percentage of females when compared to the non-depression group. The non-depression group had a significantly greater percentage of African-Americans (p < 0.01), and a significantly smaller percentage of Caucasians (p < 0.01). Our findings contribute to the literature on the role of depression on perioperative outcomes of TKA. (Journal of Surgical Orthopaedic Advances 30(1):007-009, 2021).

Background And Purpose: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are widely performed surgeries for end-stage joint disease, yet the influence of depression and anxiety on postoperative outcomes remains unclear. This study aims to consolidate current evidence on the relationship between preoperative depression and/or anxiety disorders and postoperative outcomes in adult patients undergoing primary THA or TKA. Given the potential for these psychiatric conditions to affect recovery, pain management, and overall satisfaction, the results of this study are crucial to inform targeted perioperative interventions and improve patient-centered care.

Background: Type A aortic dissection (TAAD) remains a significant challenge in cardiac surgery, presenting high risks of adverse outcomes such as permanent neurological dysfunction and mortality despite advances in medical technology and surgical techniques. This study investigates the use of quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) to monitor and predict neurological outcomes during the perioperative period in TAAD patients.
Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted at the hospital, involving patients undergoing TAAD surgery from February 2022 to January 2023.

Introduction: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have become increasingly prevalent and have the potential to delay gastric emptying. The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) released guidance regarding the perioperative management of patients receiving GLP-1 RAs, but it is unclear the extent to which hospitals in the U.S.
