ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Previous studies have demonstrated the safety and cost-effectiveness of outpatient total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), with the majority of studies focusing on 90-day outcomes and complications. Patient selection algorithms have helped appropriately choose patients for an outpatient TSA setting. This study aimed to determine the outcomes of TSA between outpatient and inpatient cohorts with at least a 2-year follow-up.

METHODS:

A retrospective review identified patients older than 18 years who underwent a TSA with a minimum of 2-year follow-up in either an inpatient or outpatient setting. Using a previously published outpatient TSA patient-selection algorithm, patients were allocated into three groups outpatient, inpatient due to insurance requirements, and inpatient due to not meeting algorithm criteria. Outcomes evaluated included visual analog scale pain, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score, range of motion (ROM), strength, complications, readmissions, and reoperations. Analysis was performed between the outpatient and inpatient groups to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of outpatient TSA with midterm follow-up.

RESULTS:

A total of 779 TSA were included in this study, allocated into the outpatient (N = 108), inpatient due to insurance (N = 349), and inpatient due to algorithm (N = 322). The average age between these groups was significantly different (59.4 ± 7.4, 66.5 ± 7.5, and 72.5 ± 8.7, respectively; P < .0001). All patient groups demonstrated significant improvements in preoperative to final patient-outcomes scores, ROM, and strength. Analysis between cohorts showed similar final follow-up outcome scores, ROM, and strength, with few significant differences that are likely not clinically different, regardless of surgical location, insurance status, or meeting patient-selection algorithm. Complications, reoperations, and readmissions between all three groups were not significantly different.

CONCLUSION:

This study reaffirms prior short-term follow-up literature. Transitioning appropriate patients to outpatient TSA results in similar outcomes and complications compared to inpatient cohorts with midterm follow-up.
