Muthu S, Vadranapu S. Variations in quantifying patient reported outcome measures to estimate treatment effect. World J Methodol 2025; 15:97078. [DOI: 10.5662/wjm.v15.i2.97078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 10/13/2024] [Accepted: 11/06/2024] [Indexed: 11/27/2024] Open
Abstract
In the practice of healthcare, patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and PRO measures (PROMs) are used as an attempt to observe the changes in complex clinical situations. They guide us in making decisions based on the evidence regarding patient care by recording the change in outcomes for a particular treatment to a given condition and finally to understand whether a patient will benefit from a particular treatment and to quantify the treatment effect. For any PROM to be usable in health care, we need it to be reliable, encapsulating the points of interest with the potential to detect any real change. Using structured outcome measures routinely in clinical practice helps the physician to understand the functional limitation of a patient that would otherwise not be clear in an office interview, and this allows the physician and patient to have a meaningful conversation as well as a customized plan for each patient. Having mentioned the rationale and the benefits of PROMs, understanding the quantification process is crucial before embarking on management decisions. A better interpretation of change needs to identify the treatment effect based on clinical relevance for a given condition. There are a multiple set of measurement indices to serve this effect and most of them are used interchangeably without clear demarcation on their differences. This article details the various quantification metrics used to evaluate the treatment effect using PROMs, their limitations and the scope of usage and implementation in clinical practice.

Chéret EPBM, Mechlenburg I, Skou ST, Dalgas U, Stisen MG, Kjeldsen T. Minimal important change in the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and the European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions in adults with hip osteoarthritis after 12 weeks of exercise. Musculoskelet Sci Pract 2025; 76:103274. [PMID: 39970818 DOI: 10.1016/j.msksp.2025.103274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2024] [Revised: 01/21/2025] [Accepted: 01/29/2025] [Indexed: 02/21/2025]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimal important change (MIC) is the smallest change that can be considered important. In hip osteoarthritis (OA) several measurement instruments are recommended but lack MIC estimates. OBJECTIVES The objective was to estimate the MIC after supervised group-based exercise for the following measurement instruments; Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D-5L), 30-s Chair Stand Test, 40-m Fast-paced Walk Test, 9-step Stair Climb Test, Nottingham Leg Extension Power Rig, and unilateral One-Repetition-Maximum Leg Press. DESIGN Secondary analysis from a randomized trial of 160 participants with hip OA randomized to two different exercise interventions. METHODS Participants were assessed using the instruments at baseline and after 12 weeks of exercise. At follow-up the participants also rated their perceived change using a Global Rating of Change Score (GRCS). A correlation of >0.3 between the measurement instruments and the GRCS was a prerequisite for estimating the MIC using the predictive modeling approach. RESULTS Only two measurement instruments had acceptable correlations and were included in the MIC analysis. The MIC for the five HOOS subscales ranged from 6 to 10 points (scale range: 0-100). The MIC for the EQ-5D-5L index (scale range: -0.757 to 1) and EQ-VAS (scale range: 0-100) were 0.054 (0.03; 0.08) and 4.83 (1.37; 8.48), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The reported MIC values indicate the minimal improvement that the average patient with hip OA would consider important after 12 weeks of exercise and will help clinicians and researchers interpret the clinical importance of the results of exercise interventions.

Abstract
Introduction: Dance is a physically demanding art form that often results in musculoskeletal injuries. To effectively treat these injuries, standardized and reliable assessment tools designed to the dancer's needs are required. Thus, the aim of this review is to identify studies that have employed validated tools to assess musculoskeletal injuries in ballet, modern, and contemporary dancers, focusing on describing the content and psychometric quality of the tools used. Methods: This systematic review is registered at PROSPERO (CRD42022306755). PubMed, Cochrane, LILACS, Web of Science and SPORTDiscus databases were searched by two independent reviewers. Articles assessing musculoskeletal injuries with validated tools in ballet, modern and/or contemporary dancers and written in English, Portuguese, or Spanish were included. Non-peer reviewed articles, books, conference abstracts, thesis/review articles, or case design studies were excluded. The original validation studies were compiled when necessary. Two independent reviewers conducted a standardized data extraction and evaluated the methodological quality using an adapted Downs and Black checklist. Results: From the 3933 studies screened, 172 were read to verify if they met the inclusion criteria, resulting in 37 studies included accounting for 16 unique validated tools. Two were imaging exams, one was an injury classification system, and 13 were self-reported injury questionnaires. Only four injury assessment tools were validated for dancers, emphasizing the need for further validation studies for the dance population. Most of the articles (57%) achieved high-quality methodological scores and the remaining (43%) reported medium-quality scores. Conclusions: Valid, reliable, and specific tools to assess dance injuries are lacking in general. For enhanced methodological rigor in future studies, the incorporation of validated tools is recommended to improve methodological quality and facilitate cross-study comparisons. Researchers may consider conducting validation studies, involving processes such as translation into another language, validation of modifications to the original tool, or reporting reliability within the article itself.

Effects of self-monitoring physical activity with wearable activity trackers on perceived joint function and health-related quality of life in people with hip and knee osteoarthritis: a secondary analysis of a cluster-randomised clinical trial. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2025; 26:33. [PMID: 39789623 PMCID: PMC11715198 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-08238-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 12/23/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) often leads to pain and functional limitations, impacting work and daily life. Physical activity (PA) is an important part of the treatment. Wearable activity trackers (WATs) offer a novel approach to promote PA but could also aid in finding a sustainable PA level over time. The aim of this secondary analysis was to examine the effects of self-monitoring PA with a WAT on perceived joint function and health-related quality of life in people with hip and knee OA. METHOD A two-armed cluster-randomized controlled trial (C-RCT) was conducted in southern Sweden including 160 individuals with hip or knee OA. The participants were cluster-randomized to a Supported Osteoarthritis Self-management Program (SOASP) with the addition of self-monitoring PA using a commercial WAT for 12 weeks (n = 86), or only the SOASP (n = 74). The outcomes include perceived joint function measured with HOOS/KOOS and health-related quality of Life (HRQoL) measured with EQ-5D-3L index and EQ VAS. Participants responded to the questionnaires at baseline and at follow-up after 3, 6 and 12 months. Statistical analyses involved linear mixed models, ANCOVA and paired t-test. RESULTS Participants with data from baseline and at least one follow-up were included in the analyses (n = 124). The analyses showed no statistically significant differences in changes between the groups in perceived joint function or HRQoL throughout the study period. Both groups improved in pain and symptoms, but the changes were small. CONCLUSION The addition of WAT-use did not have any effect on perceived joint function or HRQoL. The participants' relatively high baseline scores might have influenced the outcomes of this study. We suggest that future WAT-interventions target inactive people with OA and use devices that also captures other activities such as cycling or aquatic exercise.

Abstract
Objective To investigate associations between changes in leg extensor muscle power of the affected limb (ΔLEP) and changes in physical function after 12 weeks of progressive resistance training (PRT) or neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX) in patients with hip osteoarthritis. Design Secondary analyses of a randomized controlled trial. From 160 participants enrolled in the clinical trial and cluster randomized to PRT (n = 82) or NEMEX (n = 78), a total of 147 (92%) had complete follow-up data and were included in the analyses. Simple linear and multivariate linear regression models estimated the crude and adjusted associations between ΔLEP normalized to body weight (watt/kg) and changes in performance-based and patient-reported measures of physical function. Results Adjusted estimates [95% confidence intervals] showed associations between ΔLEP (watt/kg) and changes in 30-s chair stand test (β: 2.34 [1.33; 3.35], R2: 0.13), 9-step timed stair climb test (β: -1.47 [-2.09; -0.85], R2: 0.38), 40-m fast paced walking test (β: -2.20 [-3.30; -1.11], R2: 0.09), Activities of Daily Life function (β: 8.63 [3.16; 14.10], R2: 0.23) and Sport and Recreation function (β: 10.57 [2.32; 18.82], R2: 0.21) subscales from the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score. Group allocation to PRT did not lead to greater regression coefficients than in NEMEX. Conclusions Changes in leg extensor muscle power after supervised exercise are consistently associated with changes in physical function across performance-based and patient-reported measures in patients with hip osteoarthritis. These associations seem to be independent of allocation to PRT or NEMEX.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e40578. [PMID: 39809195 PMCID: PMC11596748 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000040578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2024] [Accepted: 10/30/2024] [Indexed: 01/16/2025] Open
Abstract
The correlation between clinical outcomes and preoperative/postoperative measures of the lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) will help establish the cutoff values for this measurement and determine whether to obtain it from the lateral acetabular rim (LCEAR) or the lateral end of the sourcil (LCEAS). The hypothesis was that the LCEAS would be more sensitive than the LCEAR. An upper cutoff value of LCEA could predict better functional outcomes in FAI patients. 106 patients (103 unilateral, 3 bilateral) who underwent hip arthroscopy surgery due to FAI and had a minimum 2-year follow-up were included. Patient-reported outcomes included the mHHS and visual analogue scale for pain (Pain VAS). Radiological parameters (alpha angle, LCEAS, LCEAR) were evaluated at the pelvis, 45° Dunn X-rays. A receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between significant variables and achievement of patient-acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) and calculate area under the curve (AUC) and critical values for LCEA. The mean age of the patients was 34 ±10 years with a mean follow-up of 5 years. There were 75 male and 31 female patients. The mHHS improved from 57 ± 11 before surgery to 93 ± 8 after surgery (P < .001). The Pain VAS decreased from 6 before surgery to 1 after surgery (P < .001). A higher frequency of reaching the PASS threshold for mHHS was associated with lower preoperative and postoperative dunn LCEAS and postoperative dunn LCEAR. Preoperative dunn LCEAS ≤ 24.8° had an AUC of 0.67, predicting PASS (+) with 0.38 sensitivity and 0.93 specificity. Combining LCEAS with other parameters further improved predictability. LCEAS seems more predictive of clinical significance than LCEAR. However, predictivity exceeds the acceptable limit when they are measured together. The upper values for LCEAS and LCEAR seem to be 24° and 35°, respectively.

Abstract
The HAGOS (Hip and Groin Outcome Score) questionnaire is a valid and reliable measure of the self-assessment of symptoms, activity limitation, participation restriction, and quality of life (Qol) of subjects with hip and/or groin pain. The aims of this study are to translate and transculturally adapt the HAGOS into Italian (HAGOS-I) and to assess its internal consistency, validity, and reliability in physically active, young, and middle-aged subjects. The translation and transcultural adaptation of (HAGOS-I) was carried out according to international guidelines. Eight-one subjects (mean age 28.19) were included in this study. All the participants completed the HAGOS-I, the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS-I), the Oxford Hip Score (OHS-I), and the Short Form 36 Health Surveys (SF-36-I). The Cronbach's α for the six HAGOS subscales ranged from 0.63 to 0.87. Statistically significant correlations were obtained between the six HAGOS-I subscales and the LEFS-I (rs = 0.44-0.68; p < 0.01). Only one HAGOS-I subscale (Participation in Physical Activities) did not reach statistical significance with the OHS-I, while the remaining five had a moderate correlation (rs = 0.40-0.60; p < 0.01). The test-retest reliability (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient) ranged from 0.57 to 0.86 for the six HAGOS-I subscales. The HAGOS-I is a valid and reliable instrument that can be used in clinical settings with young and middle-aged subjects with hip and/or groin pathologies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Measuring rate of torque development (RTD) and peak torque (PT) for hip muscle performance presents challenges in clinical practice. This study investigated the construct validity of a handheld dynamometer (HHD) versus an isokinetic dynamometer (IKD), and intra-rater repeated reliability for RTD and PT and their relationship in hip joint movements. METHODS Thirty healthy individuals (mean age = 30 ± 8 years, 13 males) underwent two test sessions in a single day. RTD (0-50, 0-100, 0-150, 0-200ms) and PT normalised to body mass in maximal voluntary isometric contractions were measured using a HHD and an IKD in hip flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal and external rotation. RESULTS For validity between the devices, RTD0-50 exhibited the largest significant systematic bias in all hip movements (3.41-11.99 Nm·s-1 kg-1) and widest limits-of-agreement, while RTD0-200 had the lowest bias (-1.33-3.99 Nm·s-1 kg-1) and narrowest limits-of-agreement. For PT, agreement between dynamometers was observed for hip flexion (0.08 Nm·kg-1), abduction (-0.09 Nm·kg-1), internal (-0.01 Nm·kg-1), and external rotation (0.05 Nm·kg-1). For reliability, intra-rater intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC2,1) ranged from moderate to good in RTD0-50 and RTD0-100 (0.5-0.88), and good to excellent in RTD0-150 and RTD0-200 (0.87-0.95) in all movements. The HHD displayed excellent intra-rater, relative reliability values (ICC2,1) in all movements (0.85-0.95). Pearson's correlation revealed good linear correlation between PT and RTD0-150 and RTD0-200 in all movements (r = .7 to .87, p = < .001). CONCLUSION Validity analysis demonstrated significant systematic bias and lack of agreement in RTD measures between the HHD and IKD. However, the HHD displays excellent to moderate intra-rater, relative reliability for RTD and PT measures in hip movements. Clinicians may use the HHD for hip muscle PT assessment but note, late phase RTD measures are more reliable, valid, and relate to PT than early phase RTD. Additionally, the correlation between RTD and PT at various time epochs was examined to better understand the relationship between these measures.

One leg testing in hip and knee osteoarthritis: A comparison with a two-leg oriented functional outcome measure and self-reported functional measures. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2024; 32:937-942. [PMID: 38552834 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2024.03.111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the responsiveness of two unilateral lower-limb performance-based tests, the one-leg rise test and the maximal step-up test, with the bilateral 30-second chair-stand test and the self-reported measure of physical function (HOOS/KOOS). Specific aims were to evaluate responsiveness, floor/ceiling effect and association between the instruments. METHOD Data was included from 111 participants, mean age 61.3 years (8.3), with clinically verified hip or knee osteoarthritis, who reported less than 150 minutes/week of moderate or vigorous intensity physical activity. Responsiveness, how well the instruments captured improvements, was measured as Cohen's standardised mean difference for effect size, and was assessed from baseline to 12 months following a physical activity intervention. Other assessments were floor and ceiling effects, and correlations between tests. RESULTS The maximal step-up test had an effect size of 0.57 (95% CI 0.37, 0.77), the 30-second chair-stand 0.48 (95% CI 0.29, 0.68) and the one-leg rise test 0.12 (95% CI 0.60, 0.31). The one-leg rise test had a floor effect as 72% of the participants scored zero at baseline and 63% at 12 months. The correlation between performance-based tests and questionnaires was considered to be minor (r = 0.188 to 0.226) (p = 0.018 to 0.048). CONCLUSION The unilateral maximal step-up test seems more responsive to change in physical function compared to the bilateral 30-second chair-stand test, although the tests did not differ statistically in effect size. The maximal step-up test provides specific information about each leg for the individual and allows for comparison between the legs.

Eighty-One Percent of Unrepaired Interportal Capsulotomies Showed Healed Capsules on Magnetic Resonance Imaging 5 Years After Primary Hip Arthroscopy. Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil 2024; 6:100943. [PMID: 39006785 PMCID: PMC11240033 DOI: 10.1016/j.asmr.2024.100943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate whether unrepaired interportal capsulotomy presents with capsular defect on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) 5 years after primary hip arthroscopy and to determine its effect on functional results and findings of osteoarthritis on radiographs or MRI scans. Methods Patients with femoroacetabular impingement (without arthritis or dysplasia) were retrospectively reviewed after arthroscopic labral repair or debridement and femoroplasty through interportal capsulotomy without closure. Patients were assessed preoperatively and at a minimum of 5 years postoperatively using patient-reported outcomes (Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living scale, modified Harris Hip Score, and visual analog scale pain score), radiographic measures, and MRI scans. Results Forty patients (42 hips) were deemed eligible for the study and were evaluated. Of the hips, 81% had healed capsules, whereas 8 (19%) had capsular defects on the latest MRI scan. There were 3 hips with subchondral edema in the defect group compared with 1 in the healed-capsule group (P = .01) on the latest MRI scan, which was not present on preoperative MRI (still positive on multivariate analysis when the preoperative alpha angle was also taken into consideration). Functional results did not differ between the groups (P > .05). Conclusions In this study, 81% of interportal capsulotomies healed without repair at 5 years after primary hip arthroscopy. Clinical Relevance Understanding the prevalence and implications of unhealed capsulotomies could encourage surgeons to be meticulous in capsular closure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise is recommended as first-line treatment for patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, randomized controlled trials providing evidence for the optimal exercise type are lacking. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether progressive resistance training (PRT) is superior to neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX) for improving functional performance in patients with hip OA. DESIGN Multicenter, cluster-randomized, controlled, parallel-group, assessor-blinded, superiority trial. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04714047). SETTING Hospitals and physiotherapy clinics. PARTICIPANTS 160 participants with clinically diagnosed hip OA were enrolled from 18 January 2021 to 28 April 2023 and randomly assigned to PRT (n = 82) or NEMEX (n = 78). INTERVENTION Twelve weeks of PRT or NEMEX with 2 supervised 60-minute group sessions each week. The PRT intervention consisted of 5 high-intensity resistance training exercises targeting muscles at the hip and knee joints. The NEMEX intervention included 10 exercises and emphasized sensorimotor control and functional stability. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcome was change in the 30-second chair stand test (30s-CST). Key secondary outcomes were changes in scores on the pain and hip-related quality of life (QoL) subscales of the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS). RESULTS The mean changes from baseline to 12-week follow-up in the 30s-CST were 1.5 (95% CI, 0.9 to 2.1) chair stands with PRT and 1.5 (CI, 0.9 to 2.1) chair stands with NEMEX (difference, 0.0 [CI, -0.8 to 0.8] chair stands). For the HOOS pain subscale, mean changes were 8.6 (CI, 5.3 to 11.8) points with PRT and 9.3 (CI, 5.9 to 12.6) points with NEMEX (difference, -0.7 [CI, -5.3 to 4.0] points). For the HOOS QoL subscale, mean changes were 8.0 (CI, 4.3 to 11.7) points with PRT and 5.7 (CI, 1.9 to 9.5) points with NEMEX (difference, 2.3 [CI, -3.0 to 7.6] points). LIMITATION Participants and physiotherapists were not blinded. CONCLUSION In patients with hip OA, PRT is not superior to NEMEX for improving functional performance, hip pain, or hip-related QoL.

Abstract
Hip arthroscopy is a hip preservation surgery used to manage acute pain and injury while attempting to preserve the hip joint and prevent or delay the progression of degenerative changes by restoring stability, reducing pathologic stress and instability, and preventing continued joint incongruity and impingement [1], [2], [3], [4]. Research supports a high likelihood of return to a prior level of athletic participation in athletes of all ages after hip arthroscopy with especially favorable results in athletes under the age of 18 [3-5]. The postoperative rehabilitation process is vital to correct impairments and compensatory strategies. Unfortunately, there is great variability in current rehabilitation protocols.Adolescent athletes returning to activity after hip arthroscopy may be at an increased risk of reinjury and continued pain if return to sport occurs too early [6]. Inconsistencies exist with current protocols and return to sport testing. For instance, assessing readiness for return to sport is often based upon tests and measures utilized for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. These tests and measures may not effectively isolate or address hip function and readiness to return to play after hip arthroscopy. This current concept review presents existing literature and a standardized rehabilitation process to restore normal function and maximize a safe return to athletics after hip arthroscopy in the young athlete. Key Concepts (1)There are few evidence-based postoperative rehabilitation programs for the young athletic population to effectively guide progress toward return to play readiness.(2)Continued hip and core strengthening exercises should be implemented after the return to play to maintain hip and core strength, improve neuromuscular control, and address additional functional impairments that may lead to repeat injury and dysfunction.(3)Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures are correlated with higher postoperative improvement and should be utilized to assess psychological and physical readiness for return to play.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The amount of resection or the starting point of the resection on the femoral head for cam lesions in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is controversial. AIM The purpose of this study was to study the effect of postoperative resection depth, and resection arc ratio of cam lesion on the frequency of achieving substantial clinical benefit (SCB), patient acceptable state (PASS) in modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Hip Outcome Score Activity of Daily Living (HOSADL), 2 years postoperatively. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients who underwent first-time hip arthroscopy for FAI with a 2-year follow-up were included in this study. Patient-reported outcomes included the mHHS, HOSADL, and visual analogue scale for pain (Pain VAS). Radiological parameters such as alpha angletraditional (αT), alpha anglecartilage (αC), resection arc ratio (% alpha anglecartilage-alpha angletraditional/360°), resection depth (''D''mm) and resection depth ratio 'D%' (D/femoral head diameter %) were measured using the 45° Dunn view. RESULTS We identified 26 patients (27 hips) with 2-year follow-up. There were 10 female and 16 male patients. The mean age of the patients was 33 ± 12 years.Higher frequency of achieving SCB threshold for mHHS was related to labrum repair (73% vs. debridement '27%' p = 0.03), lower preoperative αT (64° vs. 76°, p = 0.04), lower preoperative mHHS (54 vs. 81, p < 0.001) and higher preoperative VAS scores (8 vs. 7, p = 0.02). Higher frequency of reaching PASS threshold for mHHS was associated with lower αC (82°vs. 92° p:0.02), lower RA (8% vs. 11%, p = 0.03), lower D (2.8 mm vs. 4.5 mm p:0.03), lower D% (4.7% vs. 8.4% p = 0.04) and higher postoperative mHHS (97 vs. 82 p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS A higher frequency of achieving SCB for HOSADL was related to lower D% (5% vs. 10.5%, p = 0.04).Cam resection depth affects the frequency of achieving clinically meaningful scores and resection depth less than 6% of the femoral head diameter seems to be appropriate for optimal results. The starting point of resection on head cartilage needs to be <90° when alpha angle is used for reference.

Health Qual Life Outcomes 2023; 21:127. [PMID: 37990272 PMCID: PMC10662524 DOI: 10.1186/s12955-023-02203-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The "International Hip Outcome Tool 12" (iHOT12) is a self-administered patient-reported outcome tool for measuring health-related quality of life and physical functioning in young and active patients with hip pathology. Since the iHOT12 has become widely used, we sought to translate and validate it for Hebrew-speaking populations. The aims of this study were: (1) To translate and culturally adapt the iHOT12 into Hebrew using established guidelines. (2) To test the new Hebrew version for validity, and (3) reliability. METHODS The iHOT12 was translated and culturally adapted from English to Hebrew (iHOT12-H) according to the COSAMIN guidelines. For validity, the iHOT12-H and Western Ontario and McMaster universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) were completed by 200 patients with hip pathology. Exploratory factor analysis was used to assess structural validity. Subsequently, 51 patients repeated the iHOT12-H within a 2-week interval. Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC), Cronbach alpha, and Standard Error of Measurement (SEM) were calculated to assess reliability. RESULTS Construct validity: iHOT12-H correlated strongly to the WOMAC scores (r = -0.82, P < 0.001, Spearman). Factor analysis revealed a two-factor structure. Cronbach's alpha was 0.953 confirming internal consistency to be highly satisfactory. Test-retest correlation of the iHOT12-H was excellent with an ICC = 0.956 (95% CI 0.924-0.974). There was no floor or ceiling effect. CONCLUSION The iHOT12 Hebrew version has excellent reliability, good construct validity and can be used as a measurement tool for physical functioning and quality of life in young, physically active patients with hip pathology. This study will serve Israeli researchers in evaluating treatment effectiveness for these patients. Moreover, it will also enable multinational cooperation in the study of hip pathology.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2023; 109:103683. [PMID: 37696391 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2023.103683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Revised: 02/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 09/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS) used to evaluate the hip in younger patients is a self-administered questionnaire with 20 items in four sections: pain, symptoms, function, and activities. Although used in France, no transcultural version had been validated. The objective of this study was to translate the NAHS into French then assess the validity, reliability, and sensitivity to change of the French-language version (NAHS-Fr) in younger patients with hip conditions other than osteoarthritis. HYPOTHESIS The NAHS-Fr demonstrates good validity and reliability when used in younger French-speaking patients with hip pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS We conducted a prospective observational study in 105 patients (62 males and 43 females) scheduled for surgery on one or both hips (113 hips in total) to treat cam-type femoro-acetabular impingement or labral lesions. Before and 6 months after surgery, each patient completed the NAHS-Fr and Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Statistical tests were done to evaluate validity, reliability, and sensitivity to change, as recommended by the Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN). RESULTS The response rate was 100%, confirming that the NAHS-Fr was easy to use. The NAHS-Fr was both valid and reliable. No ceiling or floor effect was detected for the total NAHS-Fr score. All items had Cronbach alpha coefficients greater than 0.8, indicating good internal consistency. External consistency between the NAHS-Fr and WOMAC was negative (-0.676) due to inversely proportional score indexing. Before surgery, the NAHS-Fr and WOMAC scores were strongly and significantly correlated (p<0.0001). The effect size was greater than 0.8, indicating good sensitivity to the change induced by surgery. DISCUSSION These results confirm the study hypothesis: the NAHS-Fr has the same good psychometric characteristics as does the original version and versions in other languages. The NAHS-Fr is useful for evaluating younger patients with non-osteoarthritic hip pain and can be used by French-speaking surgeons in everyday clinical practice. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, prospective observational non-comparative cohort study.

Abstract
PURPOSE To systematically review the literature on effectiveness of remote physiotherapeutic e-Health interventions on pain in patients with musculoskeletal disorders. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using online data sources PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane in adults with musculoskeletal disorders with a pain-related complaint. Remote physiotherapeutic e-Health interventions were analysed. Control interventions were not specified. Outcomes on effect of remote e-Health interventions in terms of pain intensity. RESULTS From 11,811 studies identified, 27 studies were included. There is limited evidence for the effectiveness for remote e-Health for patients with back pain based on five articles. Twelve articles studied chronic pain and the effectiveness was dependent on the control group and involvement of healthcare providers. In patients with osteoarthritis (five articles), total knee surgery (two articles), and knee pain (three articles) no significant effects were found for remote e-Health compared to control groups. CONCLUSIONS There is limited evidence for the effectiveness of remote physiotherapeutic e-Health interventions to decrease pain intensity in patients with back pain. There is some evidence for effectiveness of remote e-Health in patients with chronic pain. For patients with osteoarthritis, after total knee surgery and knee pain, there appears to be no effect of e-Health when solely looking at reduction of pain. Implications for rehabilitationThis review shows that e-Health can be an effective way of reducing pain in some populations.Remote physiotherapeutic e-Health interventions may decrease pain intensity in patients with back pain.Autonomous e-Health is more effective than no treatment in patients with chronic pain.There is no effect of e-Health in reduction of pain for patients with osteoarthritis, after total knee surgery and knee pain.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evaluating groin pain still evades many clinicians at times as they have difficulty determining the cause of pain when no true hernia exists. This study's aim was to evaluate a simple and novel scoring system which is reproducible, to help determine whether conservative measures or surgery is recommended for the management of groin pain attributable to inguinal disruption. MATERIAL & METHODS A retrospective analysis of all patients from 2018 to 2020 that underwent surgery or conservative management for inguinal disruption with at least a 1-year follow-up were evaluated. The scoring system is based on MRI and ultrasound imaging as well as clinical findings, with scores given from - 2 to + 2 based on the defined findings listed. A maximum total of four points scored for each assessment was used. Sensitivity and specificity analysis was conducted for each potential score cut off point. RESULTS A total of 172 patients were evaluated with 33 patients (19%) undergoing conservative management and 139 patients (81%) undergoing surgery. The median SPoRT score for the surgery group was 2.0 (1.0, 3.0), and - 1.0 (- 3.0, 0.0) in the physiotherapy group which was a significant difference (p < 0.001). An optimal cut off of ≤ 0 for physio and ≥ 1 for surgery was established, yielding a sensitivity of 90.9% (95% CI 75.7%-98.1%), a specificity of 89.2% (95% CI 82.8%-93.8%) and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.936 (95% CI 0.874-0.997). DISCUSSION SPoRT score of ≤ 0 can recommend a patient should undergo conservative measures or physiotherapy as a mainstay of treatment with a score of ≥ 1 recommending surgery. Further validation of the score is necessary.

Gürsan O, Hapa O, Matsuda DK, Aydemir S, Çeltik M, Cici H, Acan AE. Postoperative alpha angle seems to be important for the achievement of clinical significance at a minimum 5-year follow-up after primary hip arthroscopy. J Hip Preserv Surg 2023; 10:123-128. [PMID: 37900884 PMCID: PMC10604047 DOI: 10.1093/jhps/hnad010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to clarify whether there is an association of postoperative alpha value with functional scores or progression of osteoarthritis at X-rays at the midterm after arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome with femoral osteoplasty, labral repair or debridement and rim trimming. A retrospective review of prospectively gathered data from 2013 to 2017 was performed. All patients who underwent first-time unilateral hip arthroscopy for FAI resection with 5-year follow-up were included. Patient-reported outcomes included the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Visual Analog Scale for Pain (Pain VAS). The progression of osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade) and radiological parameters (alpha angle, lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] and head-neck offset) were evaluated. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between significant variables and achievement of patient-acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) and degree of osteoarthritis. We identified 52 patients with a minimum 5-year follow-up (average, 6.7 years). The average patient age was 33.9 ± 11.5 years. There were 19 (36.5%) female patients. The mHHS improved from 60.1 ± 13.4 before surgery to 86.8 ± 14 after surgery (P < 0.001). The Pain VAS decreased from 6.21 before surgery to 2 after surgery (P < 0.001). Overall, 69% achieved the PASS for mHHS. The ROC curve for postoperative alpha angle demonstrated acceptable discrimination between patients achieving a fifth-year PASS value and those who did not have an area under the curve of 0.72. Patients having a postoperative alpha angle of ≤48.3° achieved the fifth-year PASS value at a significantly higher rate than patients having a postoperative alpha angle of >48.3° (P = 0.002). The postoperative alpha angle is a predictor of the achievement of the fifth-year PASS value for the mHHS. A threshold of ≤48.3° had a sensitivity of 0.75 and a specificity of 0.69 to predict positivity. Level of evidence IV.

Abstract
Background A large number of patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) have been developed for specific lower extremity orthopaedic pathologies. However, a consensus as to which PROMs are recommended for use in evaluating treatment outcomes for patients with hip, knee, ankle and/or foot pathology based on the strength of their psychometric properties is lacking. Objective To identify PROMs that are recommended in systematic reviews (SRs) for those with orthopaedic hip, knee, foot, and ankle pathologies or surgeries and identify if these PROMs are used in the literature. Study design Umbrella Review. Methods PubMed, Embase, Medline, Cochrane, CINAHL, SPORTDisucs and Scopus were searched for SRs through May 2022. A second search was done to count the use of PROMs in seven representative journals from January 2011 through May 2022.SRs that recommended the use of PROMs based on their psychometric properties were included in the first search. SRs or PROMs not available in the English were excluded. The second search included clinical research articles that utilized a PROM. Case reports, reviews, and basic science articles were excluded. Results Nineteen SRs recommended 20 PROMs for 15 lower extremity orthopaedic pathologies or surgeries. These results identified consistency between recommended PROMs and utilization in clinical research for only two of the 15 lower extremity pathologies or surgeries. This included the use of the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score to assess outcomes (HAGOS) for those with knee osteoarthritis and groin pain, respectively. Conclusion A discrepancy was found between the PROMs that were recommended by SRs and those used to assess clinical outcomes in published research. The results of this study will help to produce more uniformity with the use of PROMs that have the most appropriate psychometric properties when the reporting treatment outcomes for those with extremity pathologies. Level of evidence 3a.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been an increased significance on patient-reported outcomes in clinical settings. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of administering patient-reported outcome measures by computerized adaptive testing (CAT) using a tablet computer with rehabilitation inpatients, assess workload demands on staff, and estimate the extent to which rehabilitation inpatients have elevated T-scores on six Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System® (PROMIS®) measures. METHODS Patients (N = 108) with stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and other neurological disorders participated in this study. PROMIS computerized adaptive tests (CAT) were administered via a web-based platform. Summary scores were calculated for six measures: Pain Interference, Sleep Disruption, Anxiety, Depression, Illness Impact Positive, and Illness Impact Negative. We calculated the percent of patients with T-scores equivalent to 2 standard deviations or greater above the mean. RESULTS During the first phase, we collected data from 19 of 49 patients; of the remainder, 61% were not available or had cognitive or expressive language impairments. In the second phase of the study, 40 of 59 patients participated to complete the assessment. The mean PROMIS T-scores were in the low 50 s, indicating an average symptom level, but 19-31% of patients had elevated T-scores where the patients needed clinical action. CONCLUSIONS The study demonstrated that PROMIS assessment using a CAT administration during an inpatient rehabilitation setting is feasible with the presence of a research staff member to complete PROMIS assessment.

The HAR-index: a reliable method for evaluating the risk of total hip arthroplasty conversion after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2023:10.1007/s00167-023-07368-1. [PMID: 36884127 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-023-07368-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Hip arthroscopy is a growing technique in the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), but can sometimes lead to unsatisfactory results such as the early conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study is to describe a new tool for assessing the preoperative risk of THA conversion after hip arthroscopy in patients with FAI. METHODS This study is a retrospective analysis of a prospective cohort of 584 patients with FAI who underwent hip arthroscopy at a single centre with a minimum 2 years follow-up. The preoperative variables of these patients were analysed to calculate the risk of each variable for THA. By selecting variables with an area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve greater than 0.7, a calculator was created to provide a risk index for each patient. RESULTS Four variables (age, body mass index, Tönnis score and ALAD) were associated with an increased risk of THA conversion. The optimal cut-off points for each variable were determined, and a risk index was created. The Hip-Arthroplasty-Risk Index (HAR-Index) is a 0-4 points scale obtained from four binary scores of 0 or 1 depending on whether the cut-off point for each variable was reached or not. The increased risk of THA for each HAR-Index value was 1.1%, 6.2%, 17.9%, 55.1% and 79.3% respectively. The HAR-Index showed a very good predictive capacity with an area under the ROC curve of 0.89. CONCLUSION The HAR-Index is a simple and practical tool for practitioners to make more informed decisions about performing hip arthroscopy in patients with FAI. With a very good predictive capacity, the HAR-Index can help to reduce the rate of conversion to THA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Abstract
Hamstring injuries (HSIs) are the most common athletic injury in running and pivoting sports, but despite large amounts of research, injury rates have not declined in the last 2 decades. HSI often recur and many areas are lacking evidence and guidance for optimal rehabilitation. This study aimed to develop an international expert consensus for the management of HSI. A modified Delphi methodology and consensus process was used with an international expert panel, involving two rounds of online questionnaires and an intermediate round involving a consensus meeting. The initial information gathering round questionnaire was sent to 46 international experts, which comprised open-ended questions covering decision-making domains in HSI. Thematic analysis of responses outlined key domains, which were evaluated by a smaller international subgroup (n=15), comprising clinical academic sports medicine physicians, physiotherapists and orthopaedic surgeons in a consensus meeting. After group discussion around each domain, a series of consensus statements were prepared, debated and refined. A round 2 questionnaire was sent to 112 international hamstring experts to vote on these statements and determine level of agreement. Consensus threshold was set a priori at 70%. Expert response rates were 35/46 (76%) (first round), 15/35 (attendees/invitees to meeting day) and 99/112 (88.2%) for final survey round. Statements on rehabilitation reaching consensus centred around: exercise selection and dosage (78.8%-96.3% agreement), impact of the kinetic chain (95%), criteria to progress exercise (73%-92.7%), running and sprinting (83%-100%) in rehabilitation and criteria for return to sport (RTS) (78.3%-98.3%). Benchmarks for flexibility (40%) and strength (66.1%) and adjuncts to rehabilitation (68.9%) did not reach agreement. This consensus panel recommends individualised rehabilitation based on the athlete, sporting demands, involved muscle(s) and injury type and severity (89.8%). Early-stage rehab should avoid high strain loads and rates. Loading is important but with less consensus on optimum progression and dosage. This panel recommends rehabilitation progress based on capacity and symptoms, with pain thresholds dependent on activity, except pain-free criteria supported for sprinting (85.5%). Experts focus on the demands and capacity required for match play when deciding the rehabilitation end goal and timing of RTS (89.8%). The expert panellists in this study followed evidence on aspects of rehabilitation after HSI, suggesting rehabilitation prescription should be individualised, but clarified areas where evidence was lacking. Additional research is required to determine the optimal load dose, timing and criteria for HSI rehabilitation and the monitoring and testing metrics to determine safe rapid progression in rehabilitation and safe RTS. Further research would benefit optimising: prescription of running and sprinting, the application of adjuncts in rehabilitation and treatment of kinetic chain HSI factors.

Abstract
Background The Harris Hip Score (HHS) questionnaire has been translated and validated into many languages including Italian, Portuguese, and Turkish but not Arabic. The goal of this study was to translate HHS into the Arabic language with cross-cultural adaptation to include and benefit Arabic speaking communities as it is the most widely used instrument for disease-specific hip joint evaluation and measurement of total hip arthroplasty outcome. Methods This questionnaire was translated following a clear and user-friendly guideline protocol. The Cronbach's alpha was used to assess the reliability and internal consistency of the items of HHS. Additionally, the constructive validity of HHS was evaluated against the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36). Results A total of 100 participants were included in this study, of which 30 participants were re-evaluated for reliability testing. Cronbach's alpha of the total score of Arabic HHS is 0.528, and after the standardization, it changed to 0.742 which is within the recommended range (0.7-0.9). Lastly, the correlation between HHS and SF-36 was r = 0.71 (P < .001) which represents a strong correlation between the Arabic HHS and SF-36. Conclusions Based on the results, we believe that the Arabic HHS can be used by clinicians, researchers, and patients to evaluate and report hip pathologies and total hip arthroplasty treatment efficacy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The primary aim of this randomised controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness of 3 months of progressive resistance training (PRT) compared to neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX) on functional performance in patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA). Secondary aims are to investigate the effectiveness of exercise booster sessions (EBS) in prolonging the effects of the initial exercise interventions as well as to investigate the cost-effectiveness of PRT, NEMEX and EBS at 12-month follow-up. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This multicentre cluster randomised controlled trial will be conducted at hospitals and physiotherapy clinics across Denmark. A total of 160 participants with clinically diagnosed hip OA will be recruited. Participants will be cluster randomised to a 3-month intervention of either PRT or NEMEX and to receive EBS or not, resulting in four treatment arms.The primary outcome is change in functional performance, measured by the 30 s chair stand test at 3 months for the primary comparison and at 12 months for the EBS comparisons. Secondary outcomes include changes in 40 m fast-paced walk test, 9-step timed stair climb test, leg extensor muscle power and maximal strength, Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subscales, EuroQol Group 5-dimension, global perceived effect, physical activity and pain. Outcomes are measured at baseline, after the initial 3 months of intervention, and at 6-month, 9-month and 12-month follow-up. An intention-to-treat approach will be used for analysing changes in the primary and secondary outcome measures. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The trial has been approved by the Central Denmark Region Committee on Biomedical Research Ethics (Journal No 1-10-72-267-20) and registered at the Danish Data Protection Agency (Journal No 1-16-02-11-21). Results will be published in international peer-reviewed scientific journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04714047.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this pilot study was to validate the feasibility of a definitive study aimed at determining if high-intensity physical activity during adolescence impacts the development of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Methods This prospective cohort pilot study had a sample size target of 50 volunteers between 12 and 14 years old at sites in Canada, South Korea, and the Netherlands. Participants were evaluated clinically and radiographically at baseline and at 2 years. The participants’ sport and physical activity were evaluated using the Habitual Activity Estimation Scale (HAES) and the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM) criteria for sport specialization. The primary outcome was feasibility and secondary outcomes included the incidence of radiographic FAI and hip range of motion, function (Hip Outcome Score, HOS), and quality of life (Pediatric Quality of Life questionnaire, PedsQL) at 24 months. Study groups were defined at the completion of follow-up, given the changes in participant activity levels over time. Results Of the 54 participants enrolled, there were 36 (33% female) included in the final analysis. At baseline, those classified as highly active and played at least one organized sport had a higher incidence of asymptomatic radiographic FAI markers (from 6/32, 18.8% at baseline to 19/32, 59.4% at 24 months) compared to those classified as low activity (1/4, 25% maintained at baseline and 24 months). The incidence of radiographic FAI markers was higher among sport specialists (12/19, 63.2%) compared to non-sport specialists (8/17, 47.1%) at 24 months. The HOS and PedsQL scores were slightly higher (better) among those that were highly active and played a sport compared to those who did not at 2 years (mean difference (95% confidence interval): HOS-ADL subscale 4.56 (− 7.57, 16.70); HOS-Sport subscale 5.97 (− 6.91, 18.84); PedsQL Physical Function 7.42 (− 0.79, 15.64); PedsQL Psychosocial Health Summary 6.51 (− 5.75, 18.77)). Conclusion Our pilot study demonstrated some feasibility for a larger scale, definitive cohort study. The preliminary descriptive data suggest that adolescents engaged in higher levels of activity in sports may have a higher risk of developing asymptomatic hip deformities related to FAI but also better quality of life over the 2-year study period. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s40814-022-01164-3.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility, safety and outcomes of a study comparing a 6-week post-operative rehabilitation program to usual care in patients ≤60 years undergoing elective unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: A cohort of 24 THA patients were recruited during their 6-week postoperative visit to their surgeons. The community-based rehabilitation program, which was designed to improve function and increase activity, consisted of 12 structured exercise classes on land and water over 6 weeks. Physical activity was assessed using a Sense Wear Pro Armband (SWA). Participants completed the Hip Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) and THA satisfaction questionnaire before and immediately after the intervention. Results: 14 participants received the augmented rehabilitation, and 10 participants were in the control group. All except one in the intervention group completed at least 80% of the sessions. The intervention group took significantly more steps/day (mean difference = 2440 steps/day, 95% CI = 1678, 4712) (p < 0.05), at the follow-up compared to baseline. The intervention group had a higher mean change of number of weekly PA bouts than the control group. Within the intervention group, all HOOS subscales were significantly higher at the follow-up compared to baseline. Conclusion: Findings provided pragmatic insight regarding the intervention and assessments of implementing an augmented rehabilitation program for elective THA.

[PMID: 34990758 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2021.12.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 12/16/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To describe patient outcomes 3 to 5 years after arthroscopic hip capsule reconstruction. METHODS Between January 2007 and December 2016, patients aged 18 to 50 years who underwent arthroscopic hip capsular reconstruction using an Iliotibial band allograft by the senior author and had minimum of 3-year follow-up were identified. Patients were excluded if they had previous open hip surgery, advanced osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade >2), significant acetabular dysplasia (lateral center edge angle <20°), avascular necrosis, or Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Outcome scores including the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living scale, modified Harris Hip Score, HOS-Sports scale, SF-12, and Western Ontario & McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index were compared in addition to failure rate, revision rate, and patient satisfaction rate with the outcome (range, 1-10). All patients were assessed by the senior author pre- and postoperatively. RESULTS Thirty-nine patients met the inclusion criteria. The mean age of the cohort was 32 ± 10 years, with 6 male and 33 female patients. The average number of previous hip arthroscopy surgeries was 2 ± 1. Six patients (15%) converted to total hip arthroplasty at an average of 2.1 years (range 7 months to 6 years) following capsular reconstruction. Four patients required revision hip arthroscopy after the arthroscopic capsular reconstruction. All arthroscopic revisions occurred in female patients with the primary intraoperative finding of capsulolabral adhesions at the time of revision. At mean follow-up of 4.3 years (range 3-6.8 years), the 29 patients who did not require subsequent surgery had significant improvements from preoperatively to postoperatively in HOS-Activities of Daily Living and HOS-Sport with 90% reaching minimal clinically important difference. All other scores showed significant improvement. Survival for patients not requiring total hip arthroplasty was 86% at 3 years, with a mean survival of 5.7 years (95% confidence interval 4.97-6.4). CONCLUSIONS Arthroscopic hip capsular reconstruction with iliotibial band allograft is a successful treatment option for patients with symptomatic capsular defects, demonstrating improved patient-reported outcomes maintained at mean follow-up time of 4 years. This technique offers restoration of the anatomic structure and function of the capsular ligaments to improve pain and instability. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, case series.

Preoperative Expectations Do Not Correlate With Postoperative iHOT-33 Scores and Patient Satisfaction Following Hip Arthroscopy for the Treatment of Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome. Arthroscopy 2022; 38:1869-1875. [PMID: 34838646 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2021.11.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2021] [Revised: 11/13/2021] [Accepted: 11/14/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the correlation between preoperative patient expectation and International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33) score and postoperative satisfaction of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. METHODS Patients scheduled for surgery completed the Hip Preservation Surgery Expectations Survey (HPSES), as well as the preoperative and a minimum 2-year postoperative iHOT-33. Patient demographics that were collected included gender, age, occupation, and body mass index (BMI). At the latest follow-up, patients were evaluated for their subjective satisfaction and postoperative complications. An in-depth analysis was performed to assess the correlation between HPSES, iHOT-33, and patient satisfaction. RESULTS Sixty-nine patients (62.3% males; mean age: 33.7 ± 13.1 years; BMI: 23.9 ± 3.5 kg/m2) were included in this study. The mean HPSES score was 83.8 ± 16.5. The mean iHOT-33 improved from 31.6 ± 15.8 preoperatively to 73 ± 25.9 postoperatively (95% CI = 35.2,47.8; P < .01), and the mean patient satisfaction was 75.9 ± 26.9. There were no statistically significant differences in mean HPSES score between males and females (95% CI = 79.9,87.8; P = .35) nor between different occupational groups (95% CI = 79.4,87.6, P = .095). No correlation was found between age and HPSES score (r = .036; P =.76). There was a negligible correlation between HPSES score and postoperative iHOT-33 score (r = -.117; P = .34) and patient satisfaction (r = -.042; P = .73). Postoperative iHOT-33 score had a significant high correlation with patient satisfaction (r = .8; P < .001). CONCLUSION Preoperative expectations do not correlate with postoperative iHOT-33 scores and patient satisfaction with surgery at 2 years after surgery. Gender and occupation did not differ significantly with regard to preoperative expectations, and there was no correlation between age and HPSES score. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, retrospective case series.

Abstract
Objective Previous research has suggested an association between physical activity (PA), joint function, and molecular biomarkers, but more studies are needed. The aim of this study was to explore the associations between PA or self-reported joint function and molecular biomarkers of cartilage and inflammation in individuals with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis (OA). Specific objectives were to explore the correlations between (1) the change over 3 months in self-reported PA/joint function and the change in molecular biomarkers (2) objectively measured PA and molecular biomarkers measured at 3-month follow-up. Design Working age participants (n = 91) were recruited from a cluster randomized controlled trial. Self-reported PA, joint function, and serum samples were collected at baseline and after 3 months. Serum concentrations of the inflammatory marker C-reactive protein (CRP) and the cartilage markers Alanine-Arginine-Glycine-Serine (ARGS)-aggrecan, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), and type II collagen C2C were analyzed by immunoassays. Objectively measured PA (steps/day) was collected during 12 weeks from activity trackers used by 53 participants. Associations were analyzed with Spearman's rank correlation. Results There was a weak negative correlation between the change in self-reported PA and the change in COMP (r s = -0.256, P = .040) but not for the other molecular biomarkers. There were no correlations between the change in self-reported joint function and the change in molecular biomarkers or between the average steps/day and the molecular biomarkers at follow-up (r s ⩽ -0.206, P ⩾ .06). Conclusion In general, no or only weak associations were found between PA/joint function and molecular biomarkers. Future research recommends including participants with lower PA, extend the follow-up, and use a design that allows comparisons.

Abstract
PURPOSE We sought to evaluate the association between postoperative cam lesion measured by the femoroacetabular impingement resection (FAIR) arc and show 2-year patient outcomes following hip arthroscopy. METHODS A retrospective review of prospectively gathered data from 2013-2017 was performed. All patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement resection (FAI) with ≥2-year follow-up were included. Cam FAIR arc measurements were made preoperatively and postoperatively on a 45° Dunn view radiograph. The clinical effect of postoperative cam maximal radial distance (MRD) was assessed using the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS). Patients were divided into subgroups based on relationship to the mean and standard deviations for cam MRD. One half standard deviation above the mean was found to be 3.15 mm. RESULTS Sixty-one hips in 59 consecutive patients (age 38.1 ± 13.1; body mass index [BMI]: 25.5 ± 4.3; 36 females) were included. Mean preoperative and postoperative cam maximal radial distances (MRD) were 4.5 ± 1.7 mm and 2.3 ± 1.7 mm (P < .001), respectively. The interclass correlation coefficient was excellent (>.9) for all measurements. There were no differences in age, sex, BMI or preoperative mHHS/NAHS between <3.15 mm and >3.15 mm cam MRD groups (P > .05). Using linear regression, cam MRD was found to be significantly associated with 2-year outcomes for both mHHS (R2 = .21, P < .001) and NAHS (R2 = .004). Subgroup analysis demonstrated that patients in the cam MRD < 3.15 mm group had significantly higher mHHS (89.7 vs 70.0, P < .001) and NAHS scores (90.5 vs 72.9, P < .001) than those in the >3.15 mm group. Additionally, more patients in the <3.15 mm group reached the minimal clinically important difference (95.2% vs 78.9%, P = .048) and were above patient acceptable symptomatic state (95.2% vs 52.6%, P < .001) compared to the >3.15 mm group. CONCLUSION Patients with a lower postoperative cam MRD relative to the FAIR arc demonstrated significantly improved outcomes as compared to those with higher postoperative MRD at two-year follow-up.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hip osteoarthritis (OA) is the leading cause for total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although, being considered as the surgery of the century up to 23% of the patients report long-term pain, and deficits in physical function and muscle strength may persist after THA. Progressive resistance training (PRT) appears to improve multiple outcomes moderately in patients with hip OA. Current treatment selection is based on low-level evidence as no randomised controlled trials have compared THA to non-surgical treatment. The primary aim of this trial is to investigate whether THA followed by standard care is superior to 12 weeks of supervised PRT followed by 12 weeks of optional unsupervised PRT for improving hip pain and function in patients with severe hip OA. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a protocol for a multicentre, parallel-group, assessor-blinded, randomised controlled superiority trial conducted at four hospitals across three healthcare regions in Denmark. 120 patients aged ≥50 years with clinical and radiographic hip OA found eligible for THA by an orthopaedic surgeon will be randomised to THA followed by standard care, or 12 weeks of PRT (allocation 1:1). The primary outcome will be change in patient-reported hip pain and function, measured using the Oxford Hip Score, from baseline to 6 months after initiating the treatment. Key secondary outcomes will be change in the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subscales, University of California Los Angeles Activity Score, 40 m fast-paced walk test, 30 s chair stand test and occurrence of serious adverse events. Patients declining participation in the trial will be invited into a prospective observational cohort study. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The trial has been approved by The Regional Committees on Health Research Ethics for Southern Denmark (Project-ID: S-20180158). All results will be presented in peer-reviewed scientific journals and international conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04070027).

Abstract
Outcomes following different types of surgical intervention for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are well reported individually but comparative data are deficient. The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review (SR) and meta-analysis to analyze the outcomes following surgical management of FAI by hip arthroscopy (HA), anterior mini open approach (AMO), and surgical hip dislocation (SHD). This SR was registered with PROSPERO. An electronic database search of PubMed, Medline, and EMBASE for English and German language articles over the last 20 years was carried out according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We specifically analyzed and compared changes in patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), α-angle, rate of complications, rate of revision, and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). A total of 48 articles were included for final analysis with a total of 4,384 hips in 4,094 patients. All subgroups showed a significant correction in mean α angle postoperatively with a mean change of 28.8° (95% confidence interval (CI) 21 to 36.5; p < 0.01) after AMO, 21.1° (95% CI 15.1 to 27; p < 0.01) after SHD, and 20.5° (95% CI 16.1 to 24.8; p < 0.01) after HA. The AMO group showed a significantly higher increase in PROMs (3.7; 95% CI 3.2 to 4.2; p < 0.01) versus arthroscopy (2.5; 95% CI 2.3 to 2.8; p < 0.01) and SHD (2.4; 95% CI 1.5 to 3.3; p < 0.01). However, the rate of complications following AMO was significantly higher than HA and SHD. All three surgical approaches offered significant improvements in PROMs and radiological correction of cam deformities. All three groups showed similar rates of revision procedures but SHD had the highest rate of conversion to a THA. Revision rates were similar for all three revision procedures.

Abstract
Due to a lack of a validated Dutch version of the Hip Outcome Score (HOS) considering functional outcome after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, we validated the Dutch version of the HOS (HOS-NL) in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome for reliability, internal consistency, construct- and content validity. Furthermore, the smallest detectable change (SDC) and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) were determined. All consecutive patients scheduled for an arthroscopic procedure for FAIS were selected. Five questionnaires covering groin and hip pain were filled in at three moments in time (two pre-operatively with a maximum two-week interval and 6 months postoperatively). Main endpoints were reliability (test re-test, SDC), internal consistency (Cronbach alpha), construct validity (construct validity was considered sufficient if a least 75% of a-priori made hypotheses were confirmed), content validity (floor and ceiling effects) and responsiveness (MCID). The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was 0.86 for the HOS ADL-NL and 0.81 for the HOS Sports-NL. SDC for the HOS ADL-NL was 21 and for the HOS Sports-NL 29 Cronbach alpha score was 0.882 for HOS ADL-NL and 0.792 for HOS Sports-NL. Construct validity was considered sufficient since 91% of the hypotheses were confirmed. No floor effects were determined. A small ceiling effect was determined for the HOS AD-NL postoperatively. The MCID for HOS ADL-NL and HOS Sports-NL were 14 and 11.0, respectively. The HOS-NL is a reliable and valid patient reported outcome measure for measuring physical function and outcome in active and young patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite marked improvements in self-reported pain, perceived functional ability, and gait function following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), it remains unclear whether these improvements translate into improved physical activity and sleep behaviors. The aim of this study was to determine the change in 24-hour activity profile (waking activities and sleep) and laboratory-based gait function from preoperatively to 2 years following the THA. METHODS Fifty-one patients undergoing primary THA at a single public hospital were recruited. All THAs were performed using a posterior surgical approach with the same prosthesis type. A wrist-worn accelerometer was used to capture 24-hour activity profiles preoperatively and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively. Three-dimensional gait analysis was performed to determine changes in temporospatial and kinematic parameters of the hip and pelvis. RESULTS Patients showed improvements in all temporospatial and kinematic parameters with time. Preoperatively, patients were sedentary or asleep for a mean time (and standard deviation) of 19.5 ± 2.2 hours per day. This remained unchanged up to 2 years postoperatively (19.6 ± 1.3 hours per day). Sleep efficiency remained suboptimal (<85%) at all time points and was worse at 2 years (77% ± 10%) compared with preoperatively (84% ± 5%). More than one-quarter of the sample were sedentary for >11 hours per day at 1 year (32%) and 2 years (41%), which was greater than the preoperative percentage (21%). Patients accumulated their activity performing light activities; however, patients performed less light activity at 2 years compared with preoperative levels. No significant differences (p = 0.935) were observed for moderate or vigorous activity across time. CONCLUSIONS Together with improvements in self-reported pain and perceived physical function, patients had significantly improved gait function postoperatively. However, despite the opportunity for patients to be more physically active postoperatively, patients were more sedentary, slept worse, and performed less physical activity at 2 years compared with preoperative levels.

Abstract
Background A majority of individuals with osteoarthritis (OA) are insufficiently physically active. Self-monitoring with wearable activity trackers (WAT) could promote physical activity (PA), and increased knowledge of PA patterns and adherence to using a WAT is needed. The aim of this study was to describe PA patterns and adherence to WAT-use during an intervention among participants of working age with hip and/or knee OA. The study further explores the correlation between self-reported joint function and PA. Methods Individuals of working age with hip and/or knee OA who used a WAT, Fitbit Flex 2, for 12 weeks were included. Participants monitored their PA in the Fitbit-app. An activity goal of 7,000 steps/day was set. Steps and minutes in light (L), moderate and vigorous (MV) PA were collected from the Fitbit. Self-reported joint function (HOOS/KOOS) was completed. Data was analyzed with linear mixed models and Spearman’s rank correlation. Results Seventy-five participants (45–66 years) walked on average 10 593 (SD 3431) steps/day, spent 248.5 (SD 42.2) minutes in LPA/day, 48.1 (SD 35.5) minutes in MVPA/day, 336.0 (SD 249.9) minutes in MVPA/week and used the Fitbit for an average of 88.4 % (SD 11.6) of the 12-week period. 86.7 % took > 7,000 steps/day and 77.3 % spent > 150 min in MVPA/week. Mean daily steps/week decreased significantly over the 12 weeks (β-coefficient − 117, 95 % CI -166 to -68, p = < 0.001) as well as mean daily minutes in LPA/week (β-coefficient − 2.3, 95 % CI -3.3 to -1.4, p = < 0.001), mean daily minutes in MVPA/week (β-coefficient − 0.58, 95 % CI -1.01 to -0.16, p = 0.008) and mean adherence to Fitbit-use per week (β-coefficient − 1.3, 95 % CI -1.8 to -0.8, p = < 0.001). There were no significant correlations between function (HOOS/KOOS) and PA. Conclusions The majority of participants reached 7,000 steps/day and the recommended 150 min in MVPA per week. However, PA decreased slightly but gradually over time. Adherence to using the Fitbit was high but also decreased during the intervention. Understanding PA patterns and the use of a Fitbit to promote PA could be beneficial in tailoring interventions for individuals with hip and/or knee OA.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the respective percent thresholds for achieving the maximal outcome improvement (MOI) for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), the Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, and the International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12) that were associated with satisfaction following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral tear, and to identify preoperative predictors of reaching the mHHS, NAHS, VAS, and the iHOT-12 thresholds for achieving the MOI. METHODS An anchor question was provided to patients who underwent hip arthroscopy between April 2008 and April 2019. Patients were included if they answered the anchor question and had minimum 1-year follow-up. Patients were excluded if they had a previous ipsilateral hip surgery, a Tönnis grade >1, hip dysplasia, or a previous hip condition. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to determine the thresholds for the percentage of the MOI predictive of satisfaction. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine predictors of achieving the MOI threshold. RESULTS In total, 407 hips (375 patients) were included, with 279 female patients (68.6%). The average age, body mass index, and follow-up time were 38.8 ± 13.7 years, 26.6 ± 5.8, and 51.8 ± 33.2 months, respectively. Satisfaction with the current state of their hip was reported in 77.9% (317) of the cases. It was determined that 54.8%, 52.5%, 55.5%, and 55.8% of MOI were the thresholds for maximal predictability of satisfaction for mHHS, NAHS, VAS, and iHOT-12, respectively. Predictors of achieving MOI were not identified. CONCLUSIONS Following hip arthroscopy in the context of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral tear, the thresholds for achieving the MOI for the mHHS, NAHS, VAS for pain, and iHOT-12 were 54.8%, 52.5%, 55.5%, and 55.8% respectively. No preoperative predictors of achieving the MOI were identified. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, case-series.

Physical rehabilitation versus no physical rehabilitation after total hip and knee arthroplasties: Protocol for a pragmatic, randomized, controlled, superiority trial (The DRAW1 trial). F1000Res 2021; 10:146.

Abstract
Background: Following total hip- and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA), post-discharge physical rehabilitation is common practice, but varies significantly regarding content, duration, intensity and mode of delivery. Recent systematic reviews have found home-based rehabilitation to be as good as outpatient rehabilitation in terms of pain and physical function. We therefore wonder if physical rehabilitation "works" at all when compared to no physical rehabilitation after THA and TKA - "no rehabilitation" defined as no prescribed therapeutic rehabilitation exercises. The purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness of home-based telerehabilitation, home-based rehabilitation and no physical rehabilitation following THA and TKA. Methods: This pragmatic, randomized controlled trial will include 168 patients following discharge after THA or TKA, in Bornholm Denmark. Patients will be randomized into one of the three 6-week rehabilitation strategies: home-based telerehabilitation, home-based rehabilitation or no physical rehabilitation. The trial is designed as a superiority trial to test the hypothesis that rehabilitation (home-based telerehabilitation and home-based rehabilitation) is superior to no physical rehabilitation. The primary outcome will be the hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score (HOOS)/ the knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS)-subscale: function of daily living at first follow-up (end of the 6-weeks' intervention). Additional follow-ups are scheduled at 3 and 12 months. Outcome assessors and data analysts are blinded to group allocation. Conclusions: Knowledge about the effectiveness of the three investigated rehabilitation strategies will help guide the future organization of post-discharge rehabilitation after THA and TKA. Trial registration: Clinicaltrials.gov NCT03750448 (23/11/2018).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Defining success in hip arthroscopy through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) is complicated by the wide range of available questionnaires and overwhelming amount of information on how to interpret scores. The minimal clinically important difference (MCID), patient acceptable symptom state (PASS), and substantial clinical benefit (SCB) are collectively known as clinically important outcome values (CIOVs). These CIOVs provide benchmarks for meaningful improvement. The aims of this review were to update the evidence regarding joint-specific PROMs used for hip arthroscopy and to collate available CIOVs in this population. METHODS A systematic review of MEDLINE and Embase databases was performed to identify studies reporting measurement properties of PROMs utilized for hip arthroscopy. Metrics of reliability, validity, and responsiveness were extracted and graded according to an international Delphi study. Questionnaire interpretability was evaluated through CIOVs. RESULTS Twenty-six studies were reviewed. One study validated a novel questionnaire, 3 studies validated existing questionnaires, and 22 studies reported CIOVs. The most evidence supporting interpretability was found for the Hip Outcome Score (HOS, 11 studies), modified Harris hip score (mHHS, 10 studies), and International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12, 9 studies). Scores indicative of the smallest perceptible versus substantial clinically relevant changes were reported for the iHOT-12 (12 to 15 versus 22 to 28), iHOT-33 (10 to 12 versus 25 to 26), HOS-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL, 9 to 10 versus 10 to 16), HOS-Sports (14 to 15 versus 25 to 30), and mHHS (7 to 13 versus 20 to 23). Absolute postoperative scores indicative of an unsatisfactory versus a desirable outcome were reported for the iHOT-12 (below 56 to 63 versus above 86 to 88), iHOT-33 (below 58 versus above 64 to 82), HOS-ADL (below 87 to 92 versus above 94), HOS-Sports (below 72 to 80 versus above 78 to 86), and mHHS (below 74 to 85 versus above 83 to 95). CONCLUSIONS Six questionnaires had reported clinically important outcome thresholds, with the HOS, mHHS, and iHOT-12 having the most information to support score interpretation. Thresholds for the HOS, mHHS, iHOT-12, and iHOT-33 describe desirable absolute PROM scores and minimum and substantial change scores within 5 years following hip arthroscopy. Despite substantial heterogeneity in calculation methodology, included cohorts, and follow-up time, available interpretability values could be meaningfully summarized. CLINICAL RELEVANCE In light of increasing use of PROMs in orthopaedics, a summary of the available CIOVs provides guidance for clinicians in mapping numerical scores from PROMs onto clinical benchmarks.

Decreased Hip Labral Width Measured via Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Is Associated With Inferior Outcomes for Arthroscopic Labral Repair for Femoroacetabular Impingement. Arthroscopy 2021; 37:98-107. [PMID: 32828937 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.08.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2019] [Revised: 08/08/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the association between labral width as measured on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and hip-specific validated patient self-reported outcomes at a minimum of 2 years' follow-up. METHODS We performed an institutional review board-approved retrospective review of prospectively gathered hip arthroscopy patients from 2010 to 2017. The inclusion criteria were defined as patients aged 18 to 65 years with radiographic evidence of femoroacetabular impingement who underwent a primary labral repair and had a minimum of 2 years' clinical follow-up. The exclusion criteria were defined as inadequate preoperative imaging, prior hip surgery, Tönnis grade 1 or higher, or lateral center-edge angle lower than 25°. An a priori power analysis was performed. MRI measurements of labral width were conducted by 2 blinded, musculoskeletal fellowship-trained radiologists at standardized "clock-face" locations using a previously validated technique. Outcomes were assessed using the Harris Hip Score (HHS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Non-arthritic Hip Score (NAHS). For the mHHS, scores of 8 and 74 were used to define the minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state, respectively. Patients were divided into groups by a labral width less than 1 SD below the mean (hypoplastic) or widths above 1 SD below the mean. Statistical analysis was performed using linear and polynomial regression; the Mann-Whitney U, χ2, and Fisher exact tests; and intraclass correlation coefficient testing. RESULTS A total of 103 patients (107 hips) met the inclusion criteria (mean age, 39.4 ± 17 years; body mass index, 25.0 ± 4; 51% right sided; 68% female patients; mean follow-up, 76.5 ± 19.1 months [range, 30.0-113.0 months]). Mean labral width at the 11:30 clock-face position (indirect rectus), 3-o'clock position (psoas U), and 1:30 clock-face position (point halfway between the 2 aforementioned positions) was 7.1 ± 2.2 mm, 7.0 ± 2.0 mm, and 5.5 ± 1.9 mm, respectively. Intraclass correlation coefficient agreements were good to excellent between readers at all positions (0.83-0.91, P < .001). The preoperative HHS, mHHS, and NAHS were not statistically significantly different (P > .05) between the 2 groups. Sex, laterality, and body mass index were not predictive of outcomes (P > .05). The postoperative HHS, mHHS, and NAHS were found to be significantly lower in the hypoplastic group at each location tested (P < .01), including the mHHS at the 11:30 clock-face position (69 vs 87), 3-o'clock position (70 vs 87), and 1:30 clock-face position (71 vs 87). The proportion of patients with hypoplastic labra who reached the minimal clinically important difference was significantly lower (P < .001) at the 11:30 clock-face position (50% vs 91%), 3-o'clock position (56% vs 90%), and 1:30 clock-face position (58% vs 91%) in comparison to the non-hypoplastic labrum group. The proportion of patients with hypoplastic labra above the patient acceptable symptomatic state was significantly lower (P < .001) at the 11:30 clock-face position (44% vs 83%), 3-o'clock position (37.5% vs 84%), and 1:30 clock-face position (42% vs 85%) in comparison to the non-hypoplastic labrum group. Linear regression modeling was not significant at any position (P > .05). Polynomial regression was significant at the 11:30 clock-face position (R2 = 0.23, P < .001), 3-o'clock position (R2 = 0.17, P < .001), and 1:30 clock-face position (R2 = 0.26, P < .004). CONCLUSIONS Hip labral width less than 1 SD below the mean measured via preoperative MRI was associated with significantly worse functional outcomes after arthroscopic labral repair and treatment of femoroacetabular impingement. The negative relation between labral width and outcomes may be nonlinear. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, case series with subgroup analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate clinical outcomes in patients who underwent endoscopic gluteus medius repair with at least 2-year follow-up. METHODS This was a single-center, single-surgeon retrospective study of 19 patients (20 hips) who underwent endoscopic knotless gluteus medius repair between August 2010 and August 2016 with ≥2 years of follow-up. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was reviewed and graded according to the Goutallier/Fuchs classification; preoperative X-rays were reviewed and graded according to the Tonnis classification. Baseline and 2-year postoperative modified Harris hip score (mHHS) and nonarthritic hip score (NAHS) were prospectively collected. The numbers of patients reaching the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic rate (PASS) were determined. RESULTS Twenty hips from 19 patients met the inclusion criteria and were separated based on tear type. The study population comprised 15 (79%) females and 4 (21%) males presenting with a mean age of 51.3 ± 11.9 years and an average body mass index of 25.3 ± 3.9 kg/m2. Patients with partial tears reported average preoperative mHHS and NAHS of 33.6 ± 11.3 and 40.4 ± 14.9, respectively; at 2-year follow-up, average mHHS and NAHS of 72.9 ± 22.9 and 77.2 ± 19.7 were reported. Patients with full-thickness tears reported average preoperative mHHS and NAHS of 43.8 ± 14.7 and 46.4 ± 8.3, respectively; at 2-year follow-up, average mHHS and NAHS of 80.1 ± 8.5 and 79.5 ± 10.1 were reported. There was significant clinical improvement at 2-year follow-up, relating to both outcome measures in each subject group (P < .001). At 2 years, 90% of hips surpassed MCID, and 63% of hips achieved PASS. CONCLUSION Endoscopic repair for gluteus medius tears results in improved mHHS and NAHS at 2 years of follow-up compared with baseline. Most patients reach critical thresholds of minimal and satisfactory clinical improvement. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, case series with subgroup analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical outcome of autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AMIC) implementation for mid-sized chondral lesions of the acetabulum in young active patients, and assess their potential to resume an active lifestyle including return to recreational athletic activities. METHODS Sixty-two patients with full-thickness mid-sized acetabular chondral lesions were studied. All patients who underwent an arthroscopic AMIC procedure for reconstruction of chondral defects were assessed pre-operatively and at least 2 years post-operatively using the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain. RESULTS A significant improvement in all three scores at the time of follow-up was found. The mean HOOS improved from 58.8 ± 7.4 pre-operatively to 90.6 ± 7.1 at follow-up (p < 0.001) while the mean mHHS improved from 53.4 ± 6.6 to 82.4 ± 8.2 (p < 0.001). There was a significant decrease from 4.9 ± 1.1 pre-operatively to 1.1 ± 0.8 post-operatively (p < 0.001) in the VAS pain evaluation, indicating that the patients were satisfied with their relief of pain. CONCLUSIONS The AMIC procedure is an effective single-stage technique for the reconstruction of mid-size chondral defects of acetabulum in amateur athletes. This intervention enhanced the potential for patients to resume recreational athletic activities and the 2-year clinical outcome as evaluated by the HOOS, mHHS and VAS showed significant improvement over the pre-operative evaluations.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS) at 2-year follow up in patients who underwent staged bilateral hip arthroscopy versus age-, sex-, and body mass index-matched patients who underwent unilateral hip arthroscopy. METHODS Patients who underwent staged bilateral primary hip arthroscopy between January 2007 and December 2017 for the indication of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) with a minimum 2-year follow-up were identified. The control group comprised patients who underwent a unilateral hip arthroscopy for FAI. The mHHS and the NAHS were analyzed. RESULTS Forty-two patients (84 hips) in the bilateral group were matched with 84 patients (84 hips) in the unilateral group. Both groups had significantly improved mHHS and NAHS when comparing preoperative scores with postoperative scores (bilateral group mHHS: 45.5 ± 15.1 to 81.7 ± 17.6, P < .0001, bilateral group NAHS: 49.5 ± 13.8 to 83.6 ± 20.0, P < .0001, unilateral group mHHS 48.5 ± 13.8 to 83.6 ± 15.9, P < .0001, unilateral group NAHS 48.8 ± 12.0 to 85.0 ± 16.6, P < .0001). The patient-acceptable symptomatic state was achieved in 57 hips (68%) in the bilateral group versus 62 hips (74%) in the unilateral group, P = .4. Patients with bilateral hip arthroscopy who had <17 months between index procedure and contralateral hip arthroscopy had significantly better mHHS and NAHS (85.5 ± 18.4 vs 75.71 ± 14.4, P = .013 for mHHS and 88.1 ± 17.1 vs 76.2 ± 22.4, P = .0074 for NAHS). CONCLUSIONS Bilateral hip arthroscopy for the indication of FAI has improved mHHS and NAHS at 2 years of follow up compared to baseline. There was no difference in 2-year mHHS and NAHS in patients who underwent bilateral hip arthroscopy and unilateral hip arthroscopy. Patients in the bilateral hip arthroscopy group that had the contralateral surgery longer than 17 months from index procedure had lower 2 year follow up mHHS and NAHS scores than those that underwent the second surgery within 17 months of the index procedure.

[PMID: 32952915 PMCID: PMC7474040 DOI: 10.1007/s43465-020-00155-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 05/25/2020] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Objective of the study was to evaluate and compare psychometric properties such as validity, reliability, floor ceiling effects and interpretability of the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and the Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) in patients undergoing bipolar hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture in Indian patients, because this has not been done before. METHODS This observational study consisted of 40 consecutively operated patients. Construct validity and reliability were evaluated using correlation coefficient and Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), respectively. Interpretability was evaluated by describing mean and standard deviation of mHHS and FJS in five subgroups of patients based on their response to the global rating questions and assessment. RESULTS The mean follow-up duration was 15.7 months ± 10.4. There was very high correlation between mHHS and FJS (r = 0.92, p < 0.0001) suggesting convergent construct validity. The results of correlation coefficient were 100% and 66.7% in accordance with the pre-formulated hypotheses for mHHS and FJS, respectively. mHHS and FJS demonstrated adequate construct validity and inadequate construct validity, respectively. The ICC value for mHHS and FJS was 0.80 (p = 0.005) {adequate reliability} and 0.34 (p = 0.06) {inadequate reliability}, respectively. Both mHHS and FJS-12 demonstrated acceptable level of floor (0% for mHHS and 14.3% for FJS) and ceiling effects (12.5% for both mHHS and FJS). There was significant difference in the mHHS and FJS in the five subgroups of patients suggesting adequate interpretability. CONCLUSION We recommend the use of the modified Harris Hip Score over the Forgotten Joint Score for functional outcome evaluation of Indian patients from rural setting undergoing bipolar hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture.

Is the Patient Activation Measure a valid measure of osteoarthritis self-management attitudes and capabilities? Results of a Rasch analysis. Health Qual Life Outcomes 2020; 18:121. [PMID: 32370751 PMCID: PMC7201682 DOI: 10.1186/s12955-020-01364-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2018] [Accepted: 04/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Patient Activation Measure (PAM-13) was developed using Rasch analysis to assess knowledge, skills and confidence in the management of one's health. Previous studies report positive relationships between PAM-13 scores, self-management behaviours and longitudinal health outcomes in adults with chronic disease. There is little extant measurement property evidence for the use of PAM-13 in specific osteoarthritis (OA) populations. This study tested measurement properties of the PAM-13 in people living with hip and knee OA. METHODS Item response frequency analysis was conducted. Rasch analysis evaluated the fit of the PAM-13 data to the Rasch model. Model-data fit was evaluated using infit and outfit statistics; person/item reliability and person separation indices were computed. Unidimensionality was evaluated using Principal Components Analysis of Rasch residuals and the data were assessed for item redundancy. Differential Item Functioning (DIF) examined bias in respondent subgroups and correlations tested relationships between PAM-13 and other patient-reported outcomes. RESULTS Two-hundred-and-seventeen PAM-13 surveys were completed; there were no missing responses, floor or ceiling effects. Person and item reliability were acceptable (0.98 and 0.87 respectively) with good separation (person separation index 2.58). Unidimensionality was evaluated, with 49.4% of the variance explained by the first eigenvector. There was evidence of potential local response-dependence. The Rasch fit statistics were acceptable (except for item-2). There were some issues identified with targeting of the PAM-13 items to people with higher ability and the item difficulty order was different to that proposed in original cohorts. Significant DIF was identified for sex and educational level for a small number of items. PAM-13 scores were moderately correlated with depressive symptoms on the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale and Assessment of Quality of Life-6D. There were small correlations between PAM-13 and Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score pain and activities of daily living scores. CONCLUSIONS This study provides some evidence of adequate person and item reliability, unidimensionality, and construct validity to support the use of PAM-13 to measure patient activation in people living with hip and knee OA. Possible limitations regarding targeting, different item difficulty order, DIF and local response dependence should be investigated in future research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are used increasingly, but for young patients with hip complaints, traditional scoring systems have a ceiling effect that limits their usability. We developed and validated the Super Simple Hip (SUSHI) score, a PROM specifically targeted at younger patients with hip complaints. Although the SUSHI measured hip problems adequately, the responsiveness of its activity rating component was considered inadequate. Consequently, we replaced the activity rating component by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) activity scale. The aim of this study was to validate the resulting new 10-item SUSHI-UCLA score. METHODS A prospective multicentre observational cohort study was performed. Patients between 18 and 59 years, who visited the Orthopaedic Department with hip complaints, completed the SUSHI-UCLA and hip osteoarthritis outcome score (HOOS) twice before their 1st appointment, and once 16 months after. RESULTS 142 patients were included (mean age 49 years; SD 8.8). The SUSHI-UCLA score correlated well with the HOOS, both before and after treatment (Spearman's rho = 0.739 and 0.847, respectively, both p < 0.001). The responsiveness of both the SUSHI-UCLA score and the UCLA activity scale was high (standardised response mean = 2.51 and 1.35 respectively). The reproducibility was good (interclass correlation coefficient for agreement = 0.962). The minimal important change was 21.2. No significant floor or ceiling effect was observed. CONCLUSION The SUSHI-UCLA score is an adequate PROM to measure hip complaints in younger patients and includes a validated activity rating.

Abstract
Hip-related pain is a well-recognised complaint among active young and middle-aged active adults. People experiencing hip-related disorders commonly report pain and reduced functional capacity, including difficulties in executing activities of daily living. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are essential to accurately examine and compare the effects of different treatments on disability in those with hip pain. In November 2018, 38 researchers and clinicians working in the field of hip-related pain met in Zurich, Switzerland for the first International Hip-related Pain Research Network meeting. Prior to the meeting, evidence summaries were developed relating to four prioritised themes. This paper discusses the available evidence and consensus process from which recommendations were made regarding the appropriate use of PROMs to assess disability in young and middle-aged active adults with hip-related pain. Our process to gain consensus had five steps: (1) systematic review of systematic reviews; (2) preliminary discussion within the working group; (3) update of the more recent high-quality systematic review and examination of the psychometric properties of PROMs according to established guidelines; (4) formulation of the recommendations considering the limitations of the PROMs derived from the examination of their quality; and (5) voting and consensus. Out of 102 articles retrieved, 6 systematic reviews were selected and assessed for quality according to AMSTAR 2 (A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews). Two showed moderate quality. We then updated the most recent review. The updated literature search resulted in 10 additional studies that were included in the qualitative synthesis. The recommendations based on evidence summary and PROMs limitations were presented at the consensus meeting. The group makes the following recommendations: (1) the Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) and the International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT) instruments (long and reduced versions) are the most appropriate PROMs to use in young and middle-aged active adults with hip-related pain; (2) more research is needed into the utility of the HAGOS and the iHOT instruments in a non-surgical treatment context; and (3) generic quality of life measures such as the EuroQoL-5 Dimension Questionnaire and the Short Form Health Survey-36 may add value for researchers and clinicians in this field. We conclude that as none of the instruments shows acceptable quality across various psychometric properties, more methods studies are needed to further evaluate the validity of these PROMS—the HAGOS and iHOT—as well as the other (currently not recommended) PROMS.

Abstract
Introduction: Rehabilitation exercises are offered to patients after total hip arthroplasty (THA); however, the effectiveness and optimal type and dose of exercise remains unknown. The primary objective of this trial is to indicate the preliminary efficacy of home-based rehabilitation using elastic band exercise on performance-based function after THA, based on the relationship between the performed exercise dose and the change in performance-based function (gait speed) from 3 (start of intervention) to 10 weeks (end of intervention) after surgery. The secondary objective is to investigate if a dose-response relationship exists between the performed exercise dose and changes in: hip-related disability, lower-extremity functional performance, and hip muscle strength Methods: In this prospective cohort study, patients scheduled for THA will be consecutively included until 88 have completed the intervention period from 3 to 10 weeks postoperatively. Participants perform the standard rehabilitation program with elastic band exercises. Exercise dose (exposure) will be objectively quantified using a sensor attached to the elastic band. The primary outcome is gait speed measured by the 40-m fast-paced walk test. Secondary outcomes include: patient reported hip disability (Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)), hip muscle strength (hand-held dynamometry) and lower extremity function (30-s chair stand test). Discussion: This trial will add knowledge concerning the relationship between performed exercise dose and post-operative outcomes after THA. The protocol paper describes the study design and methods in detail, including the statistical analysis plan.

PATIENT-RELATED OUTCOME MEASURES 2019; 10:187-204.

Abstract
Purpose: To develop and validate a patient-centered, evaluative outcome measure to assess patient-significant and identified impacts of the three pediatric hip conditions (the “Quality of Life, Concerns and Impact Measure” (QoLC&I)), for use by patients and clinicians in discussions over treatment options and the evaluation of treatment and post-operative rehabilitation. Patients and methods: The measure was developed through a qualitative study, via two web-based forums (patient narratives, n=84) and one specialist orthopedic adult hip clinic (conducting interviews, n=38). The draft (1) measure was piloted in an asynchronous web-based discussion group forum; following revision, it was piloted with a group of clinicians and patients to assess its patient and clinical utility, face and content validity. The final, refined prototype measure (QoLC&I, draft 3) was subjected to psychometric evaluation. Results: A total of 230 patients provided useable data for the psychometric analysis: 70% (160) had a confirmed diagnosis of Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip, 15% (35) Perthes, 11% (26) Slipped Upper Femoral Epiphyses; 4% (9) PHC not stated. The scale showed good acceptability (few missing items, good spread, low floor/ceiling effects), relevance (76% stating they would find the measure useful in their discussions with clinicians), and good internal consistency (Cronbach’s α=0.98; average ICC=0.98). Hypotheses on convergent validity (with the General Health Questionnaire, to measure depression, and the International Hip Outcome Tool Short Form, to measure quality of life) and divergent validity (with the General Self-Efficacy Scale, to measure coping) were confirmed. Conclusion: The 64-item QoL&CI measure is a practical and valid measure addressing areas of clinical and patient significance and has potential value to assist patients and clinicians in discussions about treatment choices and treatment progress. Future research will address further psychometric testing (test–retest validity and responsiveness to change), in additional sites, and embedding the measure into clinical practice.
