Description
Summary:Structured Abstract Background Context Complication rates for adult cervical deformity are poorly characterized given the complexity and heterogeneity of cases. Purpose To compare peri-operative complication rates following adult cervical deformity corrective surgery between a prospective multi-center database for cervical deformity patients (PCD) and Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS). Study Design/Setting Retrospective review of prospective databases. Patient Sample 11,501 adult cervical deformity patients (11,379 patients from NIS and 122 patients from PCD database). Outcome Measures Peri-operative medical and surgical complications. Methods The NIS was queried (2001-2013) for cervical deformity discharges for patients ≥18yrs undergoing cervical fusions using ICD-9 coding. Patients ≥18 years from the PCD database (2013-2015) were selected. Equivalent complications were identified and rates were compared. Bonferroni correction (p
