| description | Abstract Objective To assess the prevalence and identify the risk factors for peripheral nerve injury (PNI) following arthroplasty through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched for observational studies investigating the prevalence and risk factors for PNI following arthroplasty. Prevalence data for PNI following arthroplasty were extracted and pooled using a random-effects model, with results presented as pooled prevalence with 95% CI. ORs and 95% CIs for identified risk factors were calculated. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on age, study type, sample size, arthroplasty site, region, and others. Publication bias was assessed using funnel plots and Egger’s test, and sensitivity analyses were performed. Results After screening, a total of 21 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of PNI was 0.7% (95% CI: 0.006–0.009) with significant heterogeneity (I² = 99%). The prevalence of PNI following arthroplasty was found to be more likely as a result of several identified factors, including spinal conditions (ORs = 2.269, 95% CI 1.625–3.170), postoperative anemia (ORs = 1.370, 95% CI 1.149–1.633), mechanical complications (ORs = 1.791, 95% CI 1.118–2.868) and hypothyroidism (ORs = 1.189, 95% CI 1.054–1.341). Conclusions The pooled prevalence of PNI was approximately 0.7%. Furthermore, we identified potential risk factors for PNI following arthroplasty, including spinal conditions, postoperative anemia, mechanical complications, and hypothyroidism. Our findings emphasize the importance of recognizing these risk factors in the perioperative management of arthroplasty patients. |
