The COVID-19 pandemic caused gender-specific declines in knee surgery rates in Sweden from 2020 to 2021
Purpose
Changes in knee surgery incidence are important factors for stakeholders and healthcare providers. The aim of this study was to examine trends and patterns in knee surgeries in Sweden from 2010 to 2022. The study focuses on gender-specific and overall rates of knee surgeries.
Methods
The analysis is based on a data set sourced from national healthcare records. The data was stratified based on surgical rates and categorized by gender, year and the specific knee arthroplasty technique used. We tracked year-to-year changes in surgical rates to identify overarching patterns. We used Poisson regression to predict future trends. Comparisons were made between various surgical subcategories, such as those with and without cement in knee arthroplasty surgeries.
Results
In 2010, the rate of knee surgeries per 100,000 person-years was 518.7 for males and 448.0 for females. These rates exhibited fluctuations over time, reaching their lowest point in 2020, attributed to the pandemic's disruption of elective procedures, with 386.4 surgeries per 100,000 males and 386.3 surgeries per 100,000 females. A resurgence was observed in 2022. The rates of primary knee arthroplasty increased, with a male rate of 106.2 and a female rate of 150.7 surgeries per 100,000 inhabitants in 2010, rising to 126.8 for males and 166.2 for females in 2022.
Conclusion
This comprehensive nationwide open-source data analysis of knee surgeries in Sweden shows that the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted knee surgery rates in Sweden, causing a notable decline in 2020, followed by a resurgence in 2022. Furthermore, while men had higher surgery rates than women, they experienced a larger decline in the incidence of knee surgeries compared to women. Understanding these trends is crucial for stakeholders and healthcare providers to improve resource allocation, address gender disparities, and maintain the resilience of surgical services in the face of disruptions.
