Background: The safety of outpatient total ankle arthroplasty (TAA), and factors predictive of early complications are poorly understood. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of early complications in patients undergoing outpatient TAA compared to a matched inpatient TAA cohort. Factors predictive of early complications following TAA are elucidated. Methods: A retrospective review of prospectively collected data from the 2011-2018 American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database was performed. An unadjusted analysis comparing complication rates in outpatient, and inpatient TAA was performed followed by a propensity score-matched cohort analysis. A multivariate logistic regression model was then used to identify significant independent predictors for complications, reoperation, and readmission following TAA. Results: = .032) in a matched cohort analysis. Thirty-eight (2.6%) patients had a minor complication, with 16 (1.1%) patients having a major complication after TAR. Nineteen (1.3%) patients underwent reoperation, and 42 (2.8%) patients were readmitted within 30 days of the index TAR. Multivariate analysis identified factors predictive of early complications to include length of stay (LOS) >2 days, smoking, hypertension, bleeding disorders, and diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: From this relatively limited data set, outpatient TAA appears to be safe for management of end-stage ankle arthritis in select patien...
