Assessment of 90-Day Outcomes Following Total Joint Arthroplasty in Ambulatory Surgery Centers, Hospital Outpatient Departments, and Hospitals: A Michigan Arthroplasty Registry Collaborative Quality Initiative Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Total joint arthroplasty is shifting from hospitals to ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and hospital outpatient departments (HOPDs). A Michigan Arthroplasty Registry Quality Collaborative Initiative quality improvement project examined readmissions, emergency room (ER) visits, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), fracture, and dislocation after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA) across sites.

Methods

Primary TJAs between July 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022 (N = 41,696: 3910 ASC, 1,834 HOPD, and 35,952 hospital) were reviewed. Of 17,100 THAs, 9.5% (1,631) were at ASCs, 4.7% (798) at HOPDs, and 85.8% (14,671) at hospitals. Of 24,596 TKAs, 9.3% (2,279) were at ASC, 4.2% (1,036) at HOPDs, and 86.5% (21,281) at hospitals.
