Introduction: Spinal fusion is an operation that is employed to treat spinal diseases. Surgical site infection (SSI) after lumbar fusion (LF) is a postoperative complication. SSI is treated with irrigation and debridement (I&D), which requires readmittance following discharge or prolonged hospital stays, which are deleterious to patients' mental health. The long-term relationship between treating SSI with I&D and patients' mental health is still understudied. Methods: Using the Mariner dataset from the PearlDiver Patient Records Database using Current Procedural Terminology and International Classification of Diseases procedure codes, retrospective cohort analysis was carried out. This study involved 445,480 patients who underwent LF with at least 2-year follow-up and were followed up for 2 years. Of the patients, 2,762 underwent I&D. Using univariate analysis employing Pearson Chi-square and Student t-test, where appropriate (), patient demographics between cohorts were gathered. 2-year cumulative incidence (CI) between LF and I&D cohorts was calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis (). Cox proportional hazards were employed to observe significant differences in CI rates (). Results: For patients who received I&D, 2-year CI depression (HR: 1.72; 95% CI: 1.49-1.99; P |
