Preoperative mental distress is associated with poorer physical improvements after revision total hip arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Despite the increasing prevalence of mental health disorders in revision arthroplasty patients, the impact of preoperative mental distress on functional outcomes after revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) remains unclear. Our study aims to investigate the impact of preoperative mental distress on functional outcomes after rTHA.

Methods

Prospectively collected data of 84 rTHAs was extracted from a single institution's joint replacement registry. Preoperative Short Form-36 (SF-36) mental component summary (MCS) was used to dichotomize patients to those who were distressed (MCS <50) and non-distressed (MCS ≥50). Multivariable analysis was used to analyze the impact of preoperative mental distress on various outcomes such as the SF-36 physical component summary (PCS), Wes
