This study was a retrospective cohort analysis of 20 patients who underwent 23 revision total knee arthroplasty procedures in a single geographic region of the United States from January 2015 to February 2023. We analyzed their 25-OH vitamin D levels preoperatively and postoperatively at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. We categorized their supplementation regimens by dose: none, low dose (1000 IU and below), medium dose (1001-5000 IU), and high dose (>5000 IU). We found that there was a high incidence of vitamin D deficiency in this patient population.
