| Popis: | Same-day bilateral total knee arthroplasties (SBTKAs) are associated with shorter rehabilitation and lower cost. However, controversy surrounding the safety of SBTKAs exists. Recent studies are lacking to determine whether patient selection has brought SBTKA in line with unilateral total knee arthroplasty (UTKA). Therefore, the authors evaluated and compared patient characteristics, hospital characteristics, and inpatient course between UTKA and SBTKA from 2009 to 2016. The National Inpatient Sample was queried from 2009 to 2016 for UTKA and SBTKA patients. Of the 5,329,466 patients identified, 5,084,328 (95.4%) patients received UTKAs and 245,138 (4.6%) patients underwent SBTKAs. Incidence, rate, patient and hospital characteristics, health status, length of stay (LOS), discharge disposition, hospital charges, hospital costs, and complications were analyzed and statistically compared. The incidence (−1.4%) and rate (15.8%) of SBTKAs decreased (both P P P P Orthopedics . 2021;44(3):e407–e413.] |
