Summary:Dehydration is a modifiable risk factor that should be optimized prior to all surgical procedures. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of dehydration on postoperative complications following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement database was queried for all patients who underwent TSA between 2015 and 2019 and a total of 16,993 patients were included in this study. The study population was subsequently classified into 3 categories: 8498 (50.0%) nondehydrated patients with blood urea nitrogen/creatinine (BUN/Cr)
