Description
Orthopaedic surgical procedures are associated with different outcomes that have both physical and psychological implications for patients. This makes it important to understand the risk factors that drive these outcomes and their impacts to better equip clinicians to prospectively manage patients and forestall Extended Length of Hospital Stay (ELOHS). De-identified data from a private acute teaching hospital obtained between 10/2015 – 12/2020 is used for this retrospective study. Results suggest that careful management of risk factors through perioperative risk adjustment before the various surgeries will help to reduce complications, improve recovery, minimize ELOHS, and the cost of hospitalization.
