5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether crutch use for 4 weeks following hip arthroscopic surgery is superior to crutch use for 2 weeks following hip arthroscopic surgery. The primary objective of the study is to compare PRO scores between patients who have used crutches for 2 weeks and patients who have used crutches for 4 weeks.
Detailed Description
This will be a single-center, randomized prospective study. The study will compare post-operative patient reported outcome (PRO) scores including the modified Harris hip score (mHHS) and the non arthritic hip score (NAHS), both are externally-validated surveys for hip function. One cohort will be assigned a rehabilitation regimen that includes 2 weeks of partial weight bearing on crutches, and the other will be assigned a regimen of 4 weeks of partial weight.

Intervention Type
Other
Intervention Name(s)
2 weeks of partial weight bearing on crutches
Intervention Description
Following surgery, patients will be instructed by their surgeon to use crutches for 2 weeks, and will follow-up normally, as any patient would. Their crutch use will not impact the quality or style of their postoperative care in any manner. At their 6-week, 6-month, 12-month, and 24 months postoperative visit, the mHHS and NAHS scores will be collected and stored in a secure data system, REDCAPS.
