Nontobacco Nicotine Dependence and Rates of Periprosthetic Joint Infection and Other Postoperative Complications in Shoulder Arthroplasty: A Retrospective Analysis
NTND is associated with higher 90-day rates of wound distruptions, infections, sepsis, as well as increased rates of mechanical loosening and prosthetic joint infection at 2 years postoperatively after SA. These results highlight the need for comprehensive NTND preoperative screening and tailored patient counseling in this patient population.
