This study aimed to better understand body mass index (BMI) change patterns and factors associated with BMI change before and after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in Class 2 and 3 obese patients, and assess if preoperative or postoperative BMI change affects postoperative clinical outcomes.We retrospectively reviewed World Health Organization Class 2 and 3 obese patients (BMI35.0 at surgery) who underwent THA at a tertiary medical center from 2010 to 2020. BMI was recorded at 1 year preoperatively (mean 11.6 months), and at most recent postoperative visit (mean 29.0 months). Baseline demographics and postoperative clinical outcomes were recorded.We reviewed 436 THAs with a mean age of 59.9 (11.5) years. Leading up to surgery 55.5% had unchanged BMI, and postoperatively 48.2% had unchanged BMI. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that those who lost BMI preoperatively were more likely to gain BMI postoperatively (odds ratio [OR] 3.28, confidence interval [CI] 1.83-5.97, P = .005), but those who gained5% BMI preoperatively had no association with BMI change postoperatively. Those in a higher BMI class preoperatively were less likely to gain BMI preoperatively (Class 3 obese patients: OR 0.001, CI 0.0002-0.004, P.001). African American patients were more likely to gain BMI preoperatively (OR 2.32, CI 1.16-4.66, P = .017). We did not detect an association between BMI change and postoperative clinical outcomes.In World Health Organization Class 2 or 3 obese patients, most maintained BMI between their first preoperative and final postoperative visit. Preoperatively, Class 3 obese patients were less likely to gain weight than Class 2 obese patients. The primary predictor of postoperative weight gain was preoperative weight loss. Weight change preoperatively and postoperatively were not associated with worse clinical outcomes. |
