Background Many factors are driving total knee arthroplasty to be performed more commonly as an outpatient (48 hours, unplanned intubation, sepsis/septic shock, and death. Propensity matched analysis was used to adjust for potential confounding covariates.Results 1099 patients undergoing outpatient total knee arthroplasty (1% of total cases) were successfully matched to 1099 patients undergoing inpatient surgeries. The composite rate of serious adverse events was greater in outpatient procedures compared with inpatient procedures (3.18% vs 1.36%, p=0.005). In contrast, failure to rescue and readmission rates were not different between groups.Conclusions Outpatient total knee arthroplasty is associated with a higher composite risk of serious adverse events than inpatient procedures. Anesthesiologists and surgeons should inform patients and discuss this information when obtaining consent for surgery and planning for discharge timing.
