The 90-Day Reoperations and Readmissions in Complex Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Study design

Retrospective review.

Objective

Identify surgical complex adult spine deformity patients who are at increased risk for an unplanned postoperative 90-day readmission and/or reoperation.

Methods

A total of 227 consecutive records of complex adult (≥18 years old) spine deformity surgeries from 2015 to 2018 were reviewed. Demographics, comorbidities, operative details, and postoperative complication data was collected. Chi-square/Fisher's exact test and t tests were used for bivariate analysis. To determine independent predictors for readmissions/reoperations, stepwise multivariate logistic regressions were employed. The C-statistic and Hosmer-Lemeshow (HL) value was used to measure concordance and goodness of fit.

Results

Average age was 50.5 ±
