Abstract | Introduction : A retrospective case-controlled study was performed to evaluate the outcomes of shoulder arthroplasty performed as a day case in carefully selected patients, compared to the traditional inpatient approach. Materials and Methods : Patients who had total or hemiarthroplasty of the shoulder performed as a day case or inpatient procedure were recruited. The primary outcome compared rates of uneventful recovery, defined by the absence of complications or readmission to the hospital within six months of surgery, between the inpatient and outpatient groups. Secondary outcomes included examiner-determined functional and patient-determined pain scores at one, six, twelve, and twenty-four weeks post-surgery. A further assessment of patient-determined pain scores was carried out at least two years post-surgery (5.8 ± 3.2). Results : 73 patients (36 inpatients and 37 outpatients) were included in the study. Within this time frame, 25/36 inpatients (69%) had uneventful recoveries compared to 24/37 outpatients (65%) ( p = 0.17). Outpatients showed significant improvement over pre-operative baseline levels in more secondary outcomes (strength and passive range-of-motion) by six months post-operation. Outpatients also performed significantly better than inpatients in external rotation ( p < 0.05) and internal rotation ( p = 0.05) at six weeks post-surgery. Both groups showed significant improvement compared to pre-operative baselines in all patient-determined secondary outcomes except the activity level at work and sports. Inpatients, however, experienced less severe pain at rest at six weeks ( p = 0.03), significantly less frequent pain at night ( p = 0.03), and extreme pain ( p = 0.04) at 24 weeks, and less severe pain at night at 24 weeks ( p < 0.01). By a minimum of two years post-operation, inpatients were more comfortable repeating their treatment setting for future arthroplasty (16/18) compared to outpatients (7/22) ( p = 0.0002). Conclusions : At a minimum of two years of follow-up, there were no ... |
