Vakharia RM, et al. - In this comparison study, individuals who underwent primary TKA and developed postoperative ileus within 3-days after their index procedure were recognized from January 1, 2005, to March 31, 2014, to evaluate rates of postoperative ileus, patient demographic profiles, in-hospital lengths of stay (LOS) and patient-related risk factors for postoperative ileus after primary TKA. Researchers illustrated the variations in people demographics, individual-related risk factors and a progressed in-hospital length of stay for individuals with ileus following primary TKA. Thus, it is significant as it could permit orthopaedists to accurately recognize and optimize people with particular risk factors to possibly alleviate this adverse event from happening.
