PG - 1626-1632 LID - S0883-5403(20)31258-4 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.arth.2020.12.019 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: The aims of this study are (1) to assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and failure to achieve the 1-year Knee Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score-Physical Function Short Form (KOOS-PS) minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients and (2) to determine if there is a BMI threshold beyond which the risk of failing to achieve the MCID is significantly increased. METHODS: A regional arthroplasty registry was queried for TKA patients from 2016 to 2019 with completion of preoperative and 1-year postoperative KOOS-PS. The MCID threshold was derived using a distribution-based approach. Demographic and patient-reported outcome measure variables were collected. BMI was analyzed continuously and categorically using cutoffs defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The association between failure to achieve 1-year MCID and BMI was analyzed using multiple logistic regression. A BMI threshold was determined using the Youden index and receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS: In total, 1059 TKAs were analyzed. BMI assessed continuously was significantly associated with failure to achieve the KOOS-PS MCID (odds ratio 1.03, 95% confidence interval 1.00-1.05, P = .025). Analysis of BMI categorically revealed that "overweight" (25-30 kg/m(2)), "obese class I" (30-35 kg/m(2)), "obese class II" (35-40 kg/m(2)), and "obese class III" (>40 kg/m(2)) patients faced 77%, 76%, 83%, and 106% greater risk, respectively, of failing to achieve the KOOS-PS MCID compared to "normal BMI" (<25 kg/m(2)) patients. CONCLUSION: Elevated BMI was associated with an increased risk of failure to achieve the 1-year KOOS-PS MCID following TKA. CI - Copyright (c) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
