Risk Factors for Nonresilient Outcomes in Older Adults After Total Knee Replacement.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Total knee replacement (TKR) is a common procedure in older adults. Physical resilience may be a useful construct to explain variable outcomes. We sought to define a simple measure of physical resilience and identify risk factors for nonresilient patient outcomes.

Methods

Secondary analysis of Function and Outcomes Research for Comparative Effectiveness in Total Joint Replacement (FORCE-TJR) cohort study, a prospective registry of total joint replacement. The analysis included 7 239 adults aged 60 or older who underwent TKR between 2011 and 2015. Measures included sociodemographic and health factors. Outcomes were categorized as physically resilient versus nonresilient based on the change from baseline to 1-year follow-up for 3 patient-reported outcomes: the physi
