Efficacy of Multimodal Analgesia Following Hip Arthroscopy
Abstract
The purpose of the full study is to determine whether multimodal analgesia for hip arthroscopy will reduce post-operative pain scores, narcotic consumption and hospital length-of-stay. To do this, the investigators will compare the standard of care (SOC), with routine pain management with a post-operative opioid prescription, to three different groups with multi-modal analgesia (SOC+peri-operative celecoxib, SOC+peri-operative gabapentin, and SOC+post-operative zopiclone).
The investigators hypothesize that administration of multi-modal analgesia in all three treatment groups will result in improved post-operative pain control, reduced post-operative narcotic consumption and an overall reduction in post-operative length-of-stay compared to the group receiving treatment as per the standard of care. However, prior to undertaking a large multi-centre study, the investigators need to determine whether the study is feasible from data obtained with this pilot study.
Conditions: Hip Pain Chronic.
Primary outcome: Change in Pain Score.
Enrollment: 100 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 100 participants or records.
