NCT04243447

Brief Summary

The overarching goal of the study is to improve the surgical treatment outcomes of FAI, which is affecting an increasing number of military personnel and young active individuals in the general population. The proposed study will investigate critical patient, disease, and surgical treatment predictors of FAI surgery outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)

    HOOS is a questionnaire constructed to assess patient-relevant outcomes in five separate sub-scales (pain, symptoms, activity of daily living, sport and recreation function and hip-related quality of life). HOOS is scored 0-100 with higher scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline HOOS at 3 months, change from baseline HOOS at 6 months, change from baseline HOOS at 1 year, and change from baseline HOOS at 2 year.

  • Short Form Health Survey (SF-12)

    The SF-12 is a shortened, validated, patient-reported survey of patient health with questions pulled directly from the longer form SF-36. SF-12 is scored 0-100 with higher scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline SF-12 at 3 months, change from baseline SF-12 at 6 months, change from baseline SF-12 at 1 year, and change from baseline SF-12 at 2 year

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Pain Interference (PI)

    PROMIS is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. This specific PROMIS survey assesses a patient's pain interference. PROMIS - PI is scored from 38.7-83.8 with the lower scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline PROMIS - PI at 3 months, change from baseline PROMIS - PI at 6 months, change from baseline PROMIS -PI at 1 year, and change from baseline PROMIS - PI at 2 year

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Physical Function (PF)

    PROMIS is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. This specific PROMIS survey assesses a patient's physical function. PROMIS - PF is scored from 14.7-75.6 with the higher scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline PROMIS - PF at 3 months, change from baseline PROMIS - PF at 6 months, change from baseline PROMIS -PF at 1 year, and change from baseline PROMIS - PF at 2 year

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Mobility (M)

    PROMIS is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. This specific PROMIS survey assesses a patient's mobility. PROMIS - M is scored from 18.2-60.2 with the higher scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline PROMIS - M at 3 months, change from baseline PROMIS - M at 6 months, change from baseline PROMIS -M at 1 year, and change from baseline PROMIS - M at 2 year

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Depression (D)

    PROMIS is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. This specific PROMIS survey assesses a patient's depression. PROMIS - D is scored from 34.2-84.4 with the lower scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline PROMIS - D at 3 months, change from baseline PROMIS - D at 6 months, change from baseline PROMIS - D at 1 year, and change from baseline PROMIS - D at 2 year

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Anxiety (A)

    PROMIS is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. This specific PROMIS survey assesses a patient's anxiety. PROMIS - A is scored from 32.9-84.9 with the lower scores being the best outcome.

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline PROMIS - A at 3 months, change from baseline PROMIS - A at 6 months, change from baseline PROMIS - A at 1 year, and change from baseline PROMIS - A at 2 year

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • University of California Los Angeles Activity Score (UCLA Score)

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline UCLA Score at 3 months, change from baseline UCLA Score at 6 months, change from baseline UCLA Score at 1 year, and change from baseline UCLA Score at 2 year

  • International Hip Outcome Tool (iHot-12)

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline iHOT-12 at 3 months, change from baseline iHOT-12 at 6 months, change from baseline iHOT-12 at 1 year, and change from baseline iHOT-12 at 2 year

  • Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS)

    Pre operative (Baseline), change from baseline mHHS at 3 months, change from baseline mHHS at 6 months, change from baseline mHHS at 1 year, and change from baseline mHHS at 2 year

  • Brief Resilience Scale (BRS)

    Pre operative (Baseline)

  • Mobility, Stability, and Pain (MSP Question)

    Pre operative (Baseline), 3 months, 6 month
