This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the medication ketorolac can help manage pain after hip arthroscopy as well or better than the standard opioid-based pain medications. This study focuses on adult patients (over 18 years old) undergoing hip arthroscopy at Henry Ford Health System in Detroit, Michigan. Both men and women are included, and all participants must be able to consent and communicate in English. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can ketorolac help control pain as effectively or better than opioids after hip arthroscopy? Will ketorolac use reduce the amount of opioid medication needed after surgery? Researchers will compare the group receiving ketorolac to the group receiving standard opioid pain medications to see if ketorolac reduces pain and opioid use after surgery. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to one of two groups: The control group, which receives the current standard pain management protocol (hydrocodone-acetaminophen and diazepam) The experimental group, which receives the same protocol plus ketorolac and a stomach-protecting medication (omeprazole) Receive their assigned pain medications after hip arthroscopy Be asked to: Take the prescribed medications after discharge Complete a pain journal for 5 days following surgery, documenting pain levels and any side effects Complete follow-up surveys and assessments at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 3 months after surgery The main measurement researchers will use is the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain on post-operative day 4. Additional measures include how many narcotic pills are used and results from PROMIS physical function and pain interference scores. The hope is that ketorolac will provide equal or better pain control without the risks of addiction and side effects associated with opioid medications. If successful, this approach could offer a safer alternative for managing pain after hip arthroscopy. Participants may personally benefit by having effective pain relief with fewer risks, and future patients could benefit from improved pain management options.
