STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to determine readmission rates and predictors of readmission after posterior cervical fusion (PCF).
SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: PCFs are common spinal operations for a variety of spinal disorders including cervical myelopathy, unstable fractures, cervical deformity, and tumors. Data elaborating on risk factors for 30-day readmission are limited.
METHODS: Data were collected from the 2006 to 2013 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database. Predictors of 30-day readmission comprising patient demographics, comorbidities, operative features, and postoperative complications were identified through logistic multivariable regression.
RESULTS: A total of 3401 patients met study criteria. Rate of 30-day readmission was 6.20%. Multilevel fusion was performed in 69.16% of patients. Postoperative infection was the most reason, accounting for 17.06% of all readmissions. Age older than 70 years (odds ratio [OR] = 1.61, P = 0.012), renal failure requiring dialysis (OR = 3.69, P = 0.011), anemia (OR = 1.57, P = 0.006), multilevel fusion (OR = 1.61, P = 0.012), surgical site infections (OR = 20.4, P < 0.001), wound dehiscence (OR = 19.08, P < 0.001), postoperative pneumonia (OR = 2.75, P = 0.01), pulmonary embolism (OR = 15.39, P < 0.001), and progressing renal insufficiency (OR = 10.13, P = 0.061) were significant predictors of hospital readmission.
CONCLUSION: The identified predictors of readmission after PCF can improve patient counseling, identification of high-risk patients, and guide changes in healthcare delivery pathways. Patients with modifiable risk factors such as anemia and kidney failure may benefit from preoperative optimization. In addition, postoperative complications represent a key target for intervention.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 3.
