The association of preoperative narcotic use with postoperative outcomes after primary elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has remained poorly characterized. The NarxCare platform analyzes patients' state Prescription Drug Monitoring Program records to assign numerical scores that approximate a patient's overall opioid usage. The present study investigated the utility of admission NarxCare narcotic scores in predicting the odds of adverse events (AEs) after primary elective TKA. Elective primary TKA patients performed at a single institution between October 2017 and May 2020 were evaluated. NarxCare narcotic scores at the time of admission, patient characteristics, 30-day AEs, readmissions, revision surgeries, and mortality were abstracted. Elective TKA patients were binned based on admission NarxCare narcotic scores. The odds of experiencing adverse outcomes were compared. In total, 1136 patients met the criteria for inclusion in the study (Narx Score 0: n = 293 [25.8%], 1 to 99: n = 253 [22.3%], 100 to 299: n = 368 [32.4%], 300 to 499: n = 161 [14.2%], and 500+: n = 61 [5.37%]). By logistic regression, patients with higher admission narcotic scores tended to have a dose-dependent increase in the odds of prolonged length of hospital stay, readmission within 30 days, and aggregated AEs. Admission narcotic scores may be used to predict readmission and to stratify TKA patients by risk of AEs.
