Hip Arthroscopy

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.

After orthopedic surgeries like knee or hip replacement, some patients struggle to fully activate their muscles due to a condition called Arthrogenic Muscle Inhibition (AMI). AMI can slow recovery and make physical therapy less effective. This clinical trial is testing whether a special type of brain training-called neurofeedback visualization training-can help improve muscle activation and speed up recovery. In this study, patients will receive standard physical therapy after surgery. Half of them will also use a device that helps them "visualize" exercises while wearing a cap that reads brain signals (EEG). The cap tracks brain activity when patients imagine doing specific movements. A computer then shows a virtual avatar performing the movements, giving feedback in real time-like a video game controlled by the brain. The study includes patients recovering from one of four surgeries: 1. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) 2. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) 3. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) 4. Hip arthroscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) The goal is to see if this training improves muscle strength, movement, and daily function more than standard therapy alone. The study will take place at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago and enroll 240 adults, with 60 patients per type of surgery. Each participant will be followed for up to 6 months after surgery and complete strength tests, movement assessments, and questionnaires about their recovery. The hope is that combining brain training with physical therapy will lead to faster, more complete recoveries and improve how patients move after surgery.

The purpose of this study is to assess outcomes of hip preservation surgeries including open and arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).

This is a pilot multi-centre RCT of 40 patients (ages 18-55 years, inclusive) undergoing primary hip arthroscopy with a focal articular cartilage defect of the acetabulum to compare the effect of using autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AMIC) in comparison to microfracture on hip function, health-related quality of life, hip pain, cartilage regeneration, health utility, and any adverse events at 2 years. Follow-up will occur at 6 weeks, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months post-surgery.

The aim of this prospective study is to describe dynamic movement parameters in active patients who underwent surgery between 3 and 6 months after hip arthroscopy, focusing on movements such as jumping, squatting and acceleration. By examining the relationships between these different parameters and the return to sporting activities, and by integrating different angle and alignment measurements per- and post-operatively, we hope to find predictive factors for successive rehabilitation in athletes, which could lead to more personalized rehabilitation protocols.

The study is to prospectively compare absorbable sutures with non-absorbable sutures used for capsular repair during hip arthroscopic procedures. Major outcomes will be measured using three questionnaires ((1) International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12), (2) modified Harris hip score, (3) hip outcome score) in addition to the standard of care set of 9 questionnaires. The other major outcome will be any radiographic heterotrophic ossification at the 6-month follow-up time point.
