Resumo: | ABSTRACT Objective: To assess socio-demographic characteristics of patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in a public university hospital, evaluating the outcome infection and associated factors. Method: A retrospective study was carried out with 78 patients undergoing TKA, from 2013 to 2014. The socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were collected. Comparison between infected and non-infected patients was performed to find out which variables were possibly associated to this complication. Result: Of 81 arthroplasties performed, patients were older (mean age 64 years), women (79%), with primary osteoarthritis as main etiology (87.6%) and most had comorbidities (82.7%). Infection occurred in 16% of patients, and this outcome associated with age older than 65 years (p=0.023) and the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis (p=0.027). Conclusion: Patients undergoing TKA are mostly elderly women with primary osteoarthritis in the knee and comorbidities who developed infection in 16% of cases. More studies need to be conducted aimed at creating specific protocols in order to improve the quality of clinical practice. Level of Evidence III, Retrospective Comparative Study. |
