Active clinical trials for "Femoracetabular Impingement"

The primary aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of hip arthroscopic surgery compared to a sham surgery (diagnostic arthroscopy only) for patients with symptomatic and radiological findings related to impingement (FAI) and/or labral tears using a randomized controlled design (HIPARTI Study: Primary aim and the main paper: primary end point: iHOT 1 year follow-up)). Our main hypothesis is that surgical procedures of the hip will demonstrate greater efficacy than sham surgery (diagnostic hip arthroscopy only) for hip related quality of life (iHOT-33) after 1 year and at further (HIPARTI Study). The secondary aim of this study is to establish modifiable risk factors associated with pain, function, work participation and quality of life over 1 year in people aged 18-50 years with hip impingement and/or labral tears diagnosed at hip arthroscopy. (HARP Study: A separate paper will be published with this main aim for the HARP Study) Long-term follow-ups for HIPARTI Study as well as HARP Study will be performed at 2, 5 and 10 years (secondary aims and separate papers).

Hip injuries are reported to account for 71% and 29% of all injuries reported in female and male performers, respectively, at the National Institute of Circus Arts. There are no reports on hip pathology in circus performers, nor are there any reported exercise interventions for hip pain in circus performers. This study aims to: To assess the effect of an exercise rehabilitation program on patient-reported outcome measures, hip strength and range of movement, and functional assessments in circus arts students with clinically and radiologically diagnosed hip pain-related disorders. Participants will undertake a 12-week strength exercise protocol that has been specifically designed to focus on hip rehabilitation appropriate for circus performance. Expected outcome: Improvements in patient reported outcome measure (PROM) scores and an increase in function, strength and hip range of movement in people with hip pain

Hip arthroscopy for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) involves reshaping of the osseous sources of impingement ("osteoplasty") and treatment of impingement-associated labral tears with labral repair. Postoperative hip braces are advocated to decrease postoperative pain by offloading hip musculature. However there are no studies looking at efficacy of hip braces after hip arthroscopy, and on average 50% of high-volume hip arthroscopists use bracing. The objective of this study is to use a randomized controlled trial to test the cited benefits of postoperative hip bracing on short term patient reported pain scores, validated hip-specific pain scores, and physical exam findings of hip flexor tendonitis.

The purpose of this single-blinded (assessor) randomized trial is to compare patient-reported, clinical and functional outcomes in patients randomized to weight-bearing as tolerated (WBAT) or partial weight-bearing (PWB) restrictions following arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) up to 12-months postoperative.

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: Does PRP/PPP/BMAC application improve functional outcomes after hip arthroscopy to address acetabular labral pathologies? 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?

The purpose is to explore the possible benefit of administration of Fisetin, (a senolytic agent) to improve the benefit of Platelet-Rich Plasma and losartan for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement and labral tear. We believe that giving Fisetin, a senolytic agent, will improve the benefit of PRP by eliminating senescent cells and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), known to exist in PRP. The main objectives of this study are to determine if pre- and post-operative administration of a senolytic agent will improve the beneficial effects of PRP when used in conjunction with surgical treatment of FAI and/or labral tear, to determine whether pre- and postoperative administration of Fisetin is associated with adverse events, and to determine if pre- and post-operative administration of Fisetin leads to a decrease in systemic senescence, serum SASP, and fibrotic markers. Patients suffering from femoroacetabular impingement and labral tear, who are planning to undergo hip arthroscopy combined with standard of care intra-operative PRP injection and post-operative losartan administration will be recruited from the clinical practice of the Principal Clinical Investigator or his designee at The Steadman Clinic (TSC).

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.

There is sparse evidence on the effectiveness of first-line treatment in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) regarding clinical- and cost-effectiveness. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a supervised strength exercise intervention to usual first-line care in patients with FAIS. The main hypothesis it aims to investigate are: 6-months of supervised strength exercise intervention is superior (i.e., at least 6 points, on a scale from 0-100) to usual care in improving hip related quality of life in patients with FAIS at the end of intervention. 6-months of supervised strength exercise intervention is cost-effective compared to usual first-line care at 12-month follow-up in patients with FAIS. High exercise adherence and dosage will be superior to low exercise adherence and dosage in mediating clinical effectiveness in patients with FAIS.

Longstanding hip and groin pain (LHGP) is a common and debilitating problem in young to middle aged individuals. These patients often get referred to orthopedic departments. Consensus statements on the management of these patients commonly recommend a physical therapist-led intervention as the first line intervention. However, the optimal content and delivery of this intervention is currently unknown. In this study we will compare the effectiveness of usual care (unstructured physical therapist-led intervention) to a semi-structured, progressive individualized physical therapist-led intervention on hip-related quality of life in people with longstanding hip and groin pain referred to an orthopedic department.

The aim of the clinical trial is to investigate the characteristics of patients, who respond vs. not respond to exercise therapy for the nonsurgical management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS).
