| Abstract | Purpose: To compare adverse events, postoperative opioid-prescribing patterns, health care use, and secondary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) surgery rates of patients undergoing primary ACLR with a preoperative antidepressant prescription (ADP) against a propensity-matched group with no preoperative antidepressant prescription (NADP) using the TriNetX Diamond Network. Methods: Patients undergoing primary ACLR between ages 18 and 35 years of age were queried from the database using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision/Current Procedural Terminology codes. Patients with an ADP were propensity matched in a 1:1 ratio to patients with NADP based on 11 patient characteristics. Postoperative rates of adverse events, emergency department (ED) visits, in-patient hospitalizations, outpatient services, physical therapy evaluations, postoperative opioid prescriptions, and secondary ACLR were compared at various time points. Results: In total, 3,736 patients with an ADP with an average age of 21.4 ± 4.5 years undergoing primary ACLR were propensity matched to patients with NADP. A significantly greater percentage of patients with an ADP received opioid prescriptions at 2 weeks (ADP 21%, NADP 11.3%, odds ratio [OR] 2.08), 6 weeks (ADP 25.5%, NADP 13.9%, OR 2.13), 3 months (ADP 27.6%, NADP 15.6%, OR 2.07), 6 months (ADP 30.5%, NADP 17.2%, OR 2.1), and 1 year (ADP 35.3%, NADP 20.2%, OR 2.16) postoperatively (P <.0001 for each time point). Patients with ADP had greater rates of ED visits (ADP 9.7%, NADP 7.1%, P < .0001, OR 1.39) and outpatient appointments (ADP 28.3%, NADP 21.8%) P < .0001, OR 1.42) at 3 months' postoperatively. Secondary surgery rates at 1 and 2 years were nonsignificant (P = .381 and P = .062, respectively). Conclusions: Following ACLR, patients with ADP had a significant increase in postoperative opioid prescriptions at all time points and used more ED resources and outpatient services compared with patients with NADP at 3 months' postoperatively. Thirty-day postoperative adverse events and both 1- and 2-year secondary ACL surgery rates demonstrated no significant differences between the groups. Level of evidence: Level III, retrospective comparative case series. |
