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.
The purpose of this research is to see if the Arthrex LoopLocTM device is better for capsular closure during hip arthroscopy than other treatments available. The hip capsule is the tissue that surrounds your hip joint. It stabilizes and supports your hip joint. During hip arthroscopy, this tissue must be cut through in order to perform the hip arthroscopy. Once the hip arthroscopy is completed, the surgeon might repair the capsule. Current ways of repairing the capsule include knotted suture that might irritate structures around the hip, leading to the possible formation of scar tissue and pain. The Arthrex LoopLocTM device is knotless and may lower the presence of irritation and scar tissue around the hip after surgery and might lead to better outcomes. Therefore, researchers will compare patients who had the LoopLocTM device used to close their hip capsule during surgery to those who did not have the device used, to see if there is a difference in their outcomes following surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of PRP/PPP/BMAC application on functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy to address acetabular labral pathologies. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does PRP/PPP/BMAC application improve functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy to address acetabular labral pathologies? 2. Does PRP/PPP/BMAC application reduce the arthritic burden as measured by functional outcomes following hip arthroscopy to address labral pathologies with concomitant PRP/PPP/BMAC application?
1. The purpose of the research is to assess the efficacy of postoperative immersive virtual reality (iVR) compared to a standard multimodal pain regimen including opioids and a local block on acute postoperative pain management following hip arthroscopy 2. The primary research procedures are medical record review for demographic information, head-mounted immersive virtual reality experience in PACU, and pre-operative and post-operative surveys 3. The study will enroll adult patients of all ages undergoing elective hip arthroscopy procedures for any diagnosis
The investigators plan to investigate the efficacy of blood flow restriction (BFR) therapy in post operative rehabilitation following hip arthroscopy. BFR has shown to be great at helping the recovery process. SAGA is a well-known smart training technology company, and the investigators aim to partner with SAGA to use the BFR cuffs as the intervention method. The BFR cuff will be added to the current SOC for hip scope PT for the intervention group.
This study will be a prospective randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial of patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS and/or labral pathology. All patients who sign the consent form will be enrolled in the study and randomized to one of the two treatment arms. Follow-up will take place at 1-month, 3-months, 6-months, and 1-year.
This study will be a prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial (RCT), investigating the influence of the number of opioid pills prescribed following primary hip arthroscopy. All patients who sign the consent form will be enrolled in the suited and randomized to one of the two treatment arms. The intervention group will receive 5 Norco pills, gabapentin (30 mg, once daily for 10 days following surgery), and Tylenol (1000 mg, three times daily for 10 days following surgery) while the control will receive the standard at our practice of 30 Norco pills.
Femoro-acetabular impingement is a well known cause of damage to the acetabular labrum and chondrolabral junction. Additionally, it has been proposed that disruption of hip biomechanics resulting from a labral tear causes a faster progression towards osteoarthritis (OA). This progression has been observed to begin with breakdown of the chondrolabral junction with later development of diffuse osteoarthritis. Use of hip arthroscopy has increased dramatically in recent years to treat symptomatic labral tears and potentially avoid the morbidity and cost associated with hip osteoarthritis. Correction of labral pathology presents a technical challenge and many techniques currently exist. Increased understanding of the structure-functional relationship dictated by labral anatomy has led to the development of methods aimed at restoring functional anatomy by re-establishing the labrum's native position and contour on the rim of the acetabulum. Therefore, akin to repairing a torn meniscus in the knee, restoring the anatomic footprint of a torn labrum will reconstitute normal joint biomechanics. Despite the advances in techniques for labral repair, strategies for mitigating or repairing damage to the chondrolabral junction do not yet exist. This area has been shown to consist of hyaline and fibro cartilage. Many techniques for cartilage repair exist, although most are not feasible due to technical challenges specific to the hip joint. The management of articular cartilage defects is one of the most challenging clinical problems for orthopaedic surgeons. Articular cartilage has a limited intrinsic healing capacity, and pathology frequently results in gradual tissue deterioration. Currently, the standard surgical intervention for end-stage degenerative joint pathology is total joint replacement. Early surgical interventions for symptomatic cartilage lesions including cell based therapies such as autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) implantation, or microfracture have been suggested to restore normal joint congruity and minimize further joint deterioration. Techniques such as ACI, which have been successfully used in the knee joint, have limited application in the hip due to the technical difficulties of open procedures.
The study will assess the outcomes of patients treated with concomitant hip arthroscopy at the time of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for patients with hip dysplasia compared with patients treated with PAO alone.
The purpose of this study is to assess outcomes of hip preservation surgeries including open and arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).
