The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index Is an Independent Predictor of Adverse Outcomes for Total Joint Arthroplasty Patients

Malnutrition affects patient outcomes after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Although hypoalbuminemia has been used as a surrogate, there is no unanimous method for screening and assessing malnutrition.

Zusammenfassung:Malnutrition affects patient outcomes after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Although hypoalbuminemia has been used as a surrogate, there is no unanimous method for screening and assessing malnutrition. This study aimed to determine if malnutrition, as defined by the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), is independently correlated with short-term (65 years who underwent TJA. Based on GNRI value, patients were divided into 3 groups: normal nutrition (GNRI >98), moderate malnutrition (GNRI 92-98), and severe malnutrition (GNRI
