Prior studies of outcomes following BKA have largely relied on the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database, whose 30-day postoperative window does not cover the entire at-risk period. The purpose of this study was to elucidate reoperation rates along a more clinically meaningful one-year timeline and identify risk factors for reoperation. 000008303 540__ $$fCC BY 000008303 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000008303 650__ $$aReoperation$$025318 000008303 650__ $$aDiabetes Mellitus$$017671 000008303 650__ $$aOrthopedics$$023320 000008303 650__ $$aAmputation, Surgical$$014634 000008303 650__ $$aTreatment Outcome$$029508 000008303 6531_ $$abelow knee amputation 000008303 6531_ $$anational surgery quality improvement program 000008303 6531_ $$auncontrolled diabetes 000008303 6531_ $$aBKA 000008303 7001_ $$aWong, Liam$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008303 7001_ $$aWyland, Erik$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008303 7001_ $$aWyland, Alden$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008303 7001_ $$aArakawa, Jordan$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008303 7001_ $$aWorking, Zachary$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008303 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2020 000008303 8564_ $$9ee2e77e1-5dbc-402f-93c8-51227fba74b6$$s49202$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8303/files/Liam-Wong.pdf 000008303 8564_ $$97115fc4f-2df8-4b05-877b-de12675cc04d$$s1062941$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8303/files/WongLiam_Poster.pdf 000008303 905__ $$a/rest/prod/hh/63/sw/62/hh63sw62x 000008303 980__ $$aResearch Week
