CLINICAL OUTCOMES Poster 84 Retrospective Analysis of Rivaroxaban Versus Fondaparinux for Thromboprophylaxis after Joint Replacement at an Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility. Abhishek Reddy, DO (Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospi- tal, Wheaton, IL, United States); Nitika Agarwal, PhD. Disclosures: A. Reddy, No Disclosures. Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the effective- ness and safety of the new oral Factor Xa inhibitor rivaroxaban to fondaparinux, an injectable anticoagulant, for prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after hip or knee arthroplasty within an inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF). Multiple studies reported have compared rivaroxaban with enoxaparin for thromboprophylaxis; however, there are no studies reported comparing safety and effec- tiveness of rivaroxaban versus fondaparinux. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: Freestanding IRF. Participants: Patients admitted to an IRF during a 12-month period following lower extremity joint replacement who received either rivaroxaban or fondaparinux for VTE prevention. Interventions: Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures: Primary effectiveness outcome in- cluded occurrence of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Primary safety outcomes were any major or non- major bleeding events. Major bleeding event defined as bleeding into critical organ, clinically overt bleeding leading to fall in hemo- globin of greater than or equal to 2g/dL or clinically overt bleeding leading to transfusion of 2 or more units of blood. Non-major bleeding event was defined as clinically relevant non-major bleed- ing, hemorrhagic wound complications or any other bleeding or anemia leading to discontinuation of anticoagulant. Results: In a preliminary analysis of 48 patient records (25 patients on rivaroxaban; 23 patients on fondaparinux), no DVT or PE events were recorded. No major bleeding event occurred in patients pre- scribed rivaroxaban compared to 4.3% in patients prescribed fonda- parinux. A minor bleeding event occurred in 4% of patients pre- scribed rivaroxaban compared to 4.3% in fondaparinux group. Conclusions: Data collection is on-going as rivaroxaban is a relatively new oral anticoagulant in the IRF’s formulary. Preliminary study results support similar effectiveness and safety with both anticoagulants in regards to VTE prevention and bleeding events. Additional data analysis will continue across the study period. Poster 85 The Functional Status of Individuals on Chronic Opioid Therapy & the Opioid Therapy’s Efficacy and Therapeutic Effect. Armando S. Miciano, MD (Nevada Rehabilitation Insti- tute, Las Vegas, NV, United States); James G. Marx, MD. Disclosures: A. S. Miciano, No Disclosures. Objective: The study objectives were to describe the functional status of individuals on chronic opioids (ICO) 1 year and to relate it to efficacy and therapeutic effect derived from the treating physi- cian’s clinical impression. Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Outpatient pain management clinic. Participants: 81 subjects (39 female; 42 male) Interventions: None. Main Outcome Measures: Subjects completed the Pain Dis- ability Questionnaire (PDQ), a formal assessment of pain-related impairments (PRI) by the AMA Guides Sixth Edition. The PRI was then sub-categorized to: Functional Status (FS) and Psychosocial Status (PS) Components. The treating physician then scored the Clinician Global Impressions via the Efficacy Index (CGI-EI) from 1-4 to determine whether the chronic opioid therapy (COT) inter- feres with the individual’s functioning (score 1 meaning no interfer- ence with functioning versus score 4 meaning COT outweigh ther- apeutic effect); in addition, Therapeutic Effect (CGI-TE) was also scored from 1-4 to record improvement of ICO symptoms (score 1 meaning unchanged or worse versus score 4 meaning marked vast improvement). Results: Total PDQ (maximum score 150) was then stratified by PRI severity and resulted in: 1.0% no impairment; 45.0% mild; 25.0% moderate; 20.0% severe; and, 9.0% extreme PRI. PDQ scores ranged from 0-146 (mean 78.0). CGI-EI scores averaged 1.2, and CGI-TE scores averaged 3.4. There was a trend relationship in the PDQ and CGI scores. Conclusions: Most ICO still self-reported mild pain-related im- pairments, and the clinician global impressions indicate that COT had no significant interference with ICO’s functioning and had led to moderate decided improvement in ICO symptoms. As the study described the functional status of ICO, it delineated the clinical benefits of COT. It concludes that the self-reported PDQ and CGI assessment by professionals are useful together in assessing the current pain status of chronic opioid users. Further correlative study on the PDQ and CGI scores would be beneficial.

Miciano, MD (Nevada Rehabilitation Insti- tute, Las Vegas, NV, United States); Jacqueline Derhou- soff; Chad Cross, PhD, PStat(R). Disclosures: A. S. Miciano, No Disclosures. Objective: This study aims to recommend easy, reproducible and valid self-report questionnaires to allow a functional assessment of chronic low back pain (CLBP) patients; it examined the determi- nants of self-reported disability in patients with CLBP and measured their functional status level owing to pain-related impairment (PRI), multi-morbidity burden, and global health scores in an ambulatory clinical population. Design: A retrospective study. Setting: Outpatient PM&R clinic. Participants: 40 patients (male 50%). Interventions: n/a. Main Outcome Measures: The data included: self-reported disability by Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Question- naire (MODQ) and by Roland-Morris Low Back Pain Questionnaire (RMQ), functional status due to PRI by Pain Disability Question- naire (PDQ), multi-morbidity burden by Self-Administered Co- Morbidity Questionnaire (SCQ), and global health by PROMIS-57 Physical Function (PF) & Pain Impact (PI) subscales.
