Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus who undergo arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (aRCR) have an increased risk of postoperative complications when compared to nondiabetics. To further investigate these complications, we used a large national database to determine the 30-day postoperative complications associated with insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetics following aRCR. Methods: The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database was queried for all patients who underwent aRCR between 2015 and 2020. The study population was categorized into cohorts based on diabetes mellitus status: non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), and no diabetes. Multivariate analysis, adjusted for confounding demographics and comorbidities, was used to determine independently associated complications. Results: There were 39,877 cases of aRCR in NQSIP included in this study. Diabetics comprised 6575 (16.7%) of these cases, with 4758 being NIDDM (11.9%) and 1817 being IDDM (4.6%). Bivariate logistic regression found both NIDDM and IDDM cohorts to be significantly associated with higher body mass index, ASA class ≥3, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bleeding disorders, and preoperative wounds or infection (P 48 hours (OR, 5.63; 95% CI: 1.40-22.62; P = .015). Conclusion: NIDDM is an independent risk factor for sepsis, while IDDM is an independent risk factor for pneumonia, readmission, myocardial infarction, and remaining on a ventilator for greater than 48 hours following aRCR. |
