Purpose The study aimed to determine whether body mass index (BMI) classification for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with differences in mean patient reported outcome measure (PROM) score improvements across multiple domains―including pain, functional status, mental health, and global physical health. We hypothesized that patients with larger BMIs would have worse preoperative and postoperative PROM scores, though improvements in scores would be comparable between groups. Materials and methods Patients undergoing primary TKA from 2018 to 2021 were retrospectively reviewed and stratified into four groups: Normal Weight; 18.5-25 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, Overweight; 25.01-30 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, Obese; 30.01-40 kg/ m<sup>2</sup>, and Morbidly Obese > 40 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. Preoperative, postoperative, and pre/post-changes (Δ) in knee injury and osteoarthritis, joint replacement (KOOS, JR) and Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) measures of pain intensity, pain interference, physical function, mobility, mental health, and physical health were compared. Multivariate linear regression was used to assess for confounding comorbid conditions. Results In univariate analysis, patients with larger BMIs had worse scores for KOOS, JR and all PROMIS metrics preoperatively. Postoperatively, scores for KOOS, JR and PROMIS pain interference, mobility, and physical health were statistically worse in higher BMI groups, though differences were not clinically significant. Morbidly obese patients achieved greater pre/post-Δ improvements in KOOS, JR and global physical health scores. Multivariate regression analysis showed high BMI was independently associated with greater pre/post-Δ improvements in KOOS, JR and global health scores. Conclusion Obese patients report worse preoperative scores for function and health, but greater pre/post-Δ improvements in KOOS, JR and physical health scores following TKA. Quality of life benefits of TKA in obese patients should be a factor when assessing surgical candidacy.

Introduction Mechanical falls represent a potential adverse event after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and may introduce further injury and delay postoperative recovery. This study aimed to identify patient characteristics associated with inpatient falls, to determine the impact of inpatient falls on surgical outcomes following TKA, and to describe the relationship between tourniquet and/or adductor canal block (ACB) use and fall rates. Methods Patients undergoing primary, elective TKA at a single institution between 2018 and 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were stratified into groups based on whether they sustained a postoperative inpatient fall or not. Perioperative characteristics, lengths of stay (LOS), rates of 90-day readmissions, and revisions were compared, and fall characteristics were described. Subanalysis was conducted comparing fall incidence based on tourniquet and/or ACB use. Results In total 6472 patients were included with 39 (0.6%) sustaining falls. Falls most commonly occurred on postoperative days one (43.6%) and two (30.8%), and were most commonly due to loss of balance (41.9%) or buckling (35.5%). Six (15.4%) fall patients sustained minor injuries, and one (2.6%) sustained major injury (malleolar fracture requiring non-operative orthopaedic management). The LOS (3.0 ± 1.5 vs 2.3 ± 1.5 days, p = 0.002) and all-cause revision rates at latest follow-up (10.3% vs. 2.0%, p = 0.008) were significantly higher in the fall group. Falls were comparable across subgroups based on tourniquet and/or ACB use (p = 0.429). Conclusion Patients who fell had a longer LOS and higher revision rate postoperatively. Rates of inpatient falls were comparable regardless of tourniquet and/or ACB use. Concern for inpatient falls should not influence surgeons when considering the use of tourniquets and/or ACBs, though well-designed, large-volume, prospective randomized studies are warranted to better understand this relationship.
