Capsular Repair, Labral Repair, and Femoroplasty are Increasingly Performed for the Arthroscopic Treatment of Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome. Arthroscopy 2024:S0749-8063(24)00069-0. [PMID: 38311271 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2024.01.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To provide an updated assessment of hip arthroscopy use by using an institutional database that is specific to the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS All patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for the treatment of FAIS were retrospectively identified between the years 2014 and 2022 via Current Procedural Terminology coding in a multi-institutional, single health system database. A longitudinal analysis was performed to identify trends in the use of arthroscopic techniques including capsular and labral treatment, osteoplasty, and traction set-up. RESULTS During the study, 789 arthroscopic hip procedures in 733 patients were analyzed (56 staged bilateral). Between 2016 and 2022, the number of hip arthroscopies performed each year increased by 1,490% (R2 = 0.87, P = .001). Capsular repair (R2 = 0.92, P < .001), labral repair (R2 = 0.75, P = .002), and femoroplasty (R2 = 0.70, P = .004) were performed in an increasing proportion of cases over our study period whereas labral debridement (R2 = -0.84, P < .001) became less used. Postless traction systems were employed in 84% (663/789) of hip arthroscopies overall, were used in at least 70% of hip arthroscopies each year, and did not undergo any significant changes in use (R2 = 0.02, P = .73). CONCLUSIONS Capsular repair, labral repair, and femoroplasty were increasingly performed for the arthroscopic treatment of FAIS whereas the use of labral debridement decreased significantly over our study period. Postless traction systems were used in the majority of cases each year. CLINICAL RELEVANCE As comparative literature continues to define the safety and efficacy of hip arthroscopy, understanding how novel techniques or procedures are incorporated in clinical practice is important.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify and assess the clinical impact of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the surgical management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) through a citation analysis. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL were searched from inception to April 22, 2023 for RCTs assessing the surgical management of FAIS. Study characteristics were directly abstracted from included trials and citation metrics were obtained from the Clarivate Web of Knowledge database on May 19, 2023. The continuous fragility index (CFI) was calculated for eligible outcomes. Univariate regression models were used to explore correlations between total citations per year and various study characteristics. RESULTS Ten studies comprising one thousand two hundred ninetypatients were eligible for analysis. Studies were published from 2013 to 2023. Eight countries were represented across various trials with 91% being either North American or European. The mean journal impact factor of published studies was 39.684 (median 2.982; range 1.31-202.73). The mean citation density was 14.17 (range 0.33-48.67). The median CFI was 4.8 (range 1-32.2). Correlation analysis demonstrated strong and statistically significant correlations to study sample size (R = 0.75, p = 0.012), journal impact factor (R = 0.80, p = 0.006) and continuous fragility index (R = 0.95, p = 0.015). CONCLUSION Trials assessing the surgical management of FAIS present with a wide range of clinical uptake based on citation density and are published in journals of broadly variable impact factor. Despite promising citation metrics, high-quality evidence on arthroscopy for FAIS is limited to the United States and Europe with an unclear international impact. Future knowledge translation efforts are warranted to maximise the international uptake of evidence regarding arthroscopic management of FAIS. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE I.

Abstract
PURPOSE To (1) classify surgical centers in New York State by volume of hip arthroscopies performed, (2) calculate rates of readmissions and complications by center volume, and (3) identify socioeconomic predictive factors for readmissions and complications following hip arthroscopy. METHODS Patients who underwent hip arthroscopy at New York State health care facilities from 2010 to 2020 were retrospectively identified using the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) database. Hip arthroscopic procedures were identified using the following Current Procedural Terminology codes. Surgical center volumes were classified into 3 categories: low (<85th percentile), medium (85th-95th percentile), and high (>95th percentile). Incidence of readmissions and complications within 90 days was abstracted from SPARCS. Neighborhood socioeconomic status was quantified using the U.S. Area Deprivation Index. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine whether center volume and other socioeconomic variables were independent predictors of outcomes. RESULTS In total, 50,252 patients who underwent hip arthroscopy were identified in SPARCS from 2010 to 2020. Of these patients, 13,861 (27.6%) underwent surgery at low-volume centers, 11,757 (23.4%) at medium-volume centers, and 24,634 (49.0%) at high-volume centers. Minorities, publicly insured patients, and patients from lower socioeconomic status neighborhoods made up a larger proportion of cases seen by low-volume centers versus high-volume centers (P < .001). Patients in the low-volume group experienced significantly greater 90-day rates of readmissions (P < .001) and all-cause complications (P < .001) than the other groups. Furthermore, high-volume centers were independently associated with lower odds of readmission (odds ratio 0.57, P < .001) and all-cause complications (odds ratio 0.73, P < .001) versus low-volume centers. CONCLUSIONS Low-volume surgical centers are associated with increased readmission and complication rates following hip arthroscopy, independent of other socioeconomic factors such as age, sex, race, insurance status, and neighborhood socioeconomic status. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative prognostic trial.

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.

Abstract
Background Racial and ethnic disparities in the field of orthopaedic surgery have been reported extensively across many subspecialties. However, these data remain relatively sparse in orthopaedic sports medicine, especially with respect to commonly performed procedures including knee and hip arthroscopy. Purpose To assess (1) differences in utilization of knee and hip arthroscopy between White, Black, Hispanic, and Asian or Pacific Islander patients in the United States (US) and (2) how these differences vary by geographical region. Study Design Descriptive epidemiology study. Methods The study sample was acquired from the 2019 National Ambulatory Surgery Sample database. Racial and ethnic differences in age-standardized utilization rates of hip and knee arthroscopy were calculated using survey weights and population estimates from US census data. Poisson regression was used to model age-standardized utilization rates for hip and knee arthroscopy while controlling for several demographic and clinical variables. Results During the study period, rates of knee arthroscopy utilization among White patients were significantly higher than those of Black, Hispanic, and Asian or Pacific Islander patients (ie, per 100,000, White: 180.5, Black: 113.2, Hispanic: 122.2, and Asian: 58.6). Disparities were even more pronounced among patients undergoing hip arthroscopy, with White patients receiving the procedure at almost 4 to 5 times higher rates (ie, per 100,000, White: 12.6, Black: 3.2, Hispanic: 2.3, Asian or Pacific Islander: 1.8). Disparities in knee and hip arthroscopy utilization between White and non-White patients varied significantly by region, with gaps in knee arthroscopy being most pronounced in the Midwest (adjusted rate ratio, 2.0 [95% CI, 1.9-2.1]) and those in hip arthroscopy being greatest in the West (adjusted rate ratio, 5.3 [95% CI, 4.9-5.6]). Conclusion Racial and ethnic disparities in the use of knee and hip arthroscopy were found across the US, with decreased rates among Black, Hispanic, and Asian or Pacific Islander patients compared with White patients. Disparities were most pronounced in the Midwest and South and greater for hip than knee arthroscopy, possibly demonstrating emerging inequality in a rapidly growing and evolving procedure across the country.

Abstract
Introduction Hip arthroscopy is a rising surgical technique due to the increase in hip diseases, especially femoroacetabular impingement. One of the several complications related to such procedures is heterotopic ossifications (HO). The aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of HO after hip arthroscopy in a series of patients with femoroacetabular impingement and to compare its preoperative and intraoperative variables with a matched control group of patients without HO. Methods All patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement between 2010 and 2017 with a minimum follow-up of 2 years were included in this analysis. Radiographic examinations were recorded to select cases with HO. A case-control analysis was performed comparing preoperative and intraoperative variables between cases with HO and a matched control group without HO. Results A total of 700 cases were included in the analysis. HO was found in 15 (2.14%) of subjects. Cases with HO showed more severe cartilage injuries, less cam morphology ratio, and a higher proportion of partial labrectomies than the control group. No significant differences were observed in preoperative hip pain or function between groups. Conclusions The prevalence of HO after hip arthroscopy in subjects with femoroacetabular impingement was 2.14%. Cases with HO had more severe cartilage injuries, lower ratio of cam morphology, and higher proportion of partial labrectomies than the control cases without HO. Level of Evidence Level III.

Abstract
Coxa profunda presents a unique challenge in surgical treatment approach given global acetabular overcoverage. Arthroscopic treatment can be fraught with difficulty obtaining hip distraction for safe arthroscopic instrumentation, and limited arthroscopic access may prevent sufficient osseous resection of the excess acetabular rim. Although hip arthroscopy use has increased markedly over the past decades for all types of hip pathology, coxa profunda may represent one unique indication for surgical hip dislocation. This technique describes open surgical hip dislocation, rim resection, femoral osteoplasty, and labral reconstruction using anterior tibialis allograft for coxa profunda with combined-type femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral ossification.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With limited evidence on national incidences of hip arthroscopy in the elderly population, the current study aims to investigate trends of primary hip arthroscopies being performed in the elderly population, using the US Medicare database, and determine risk factors for conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS Medicare Standard Analytic Files were queried using CPT codes to retrieve records of primary hip arthroscopies done for degenerative pathology during 2005-2014. Overall and age-stratified trends in the incidence of hip arthroscopy over time were analysed. Kaplan Meier survival curves were used to assess the overall 2-year conversion rate to a THA. Cox regression analysis was implemented to study risk factors for conversion. RESULTS 8100 primary hip arthroscopies for degenerative pathology were performed during 2005-2014. There was a 280% increase in overall incidence of arthroscopy. The most commonly performed arthroscopic procedure was for chondroplasty and/or resection of labrum, with 4712 (58.1%) procedures. Around 18.5% patients underwent arthroplasty within 2 years after primary arthroscopy. Following Cox regression an existing diagnosis of osteoarthritis, ages 65-69, ages 70-74, and arthroscopies done in the West were associated with higher risk of conversion to THA within 2 years. Undergoing a repeat arthroscopy was not significantly associated with a higher risk of conversion. CONCLUSIONS Despite inconclusive clinical evidence, hip arthroscopies are being increasingly used in patients older than 65 in the Medicare population. We conclude that patients in the age bracket of 65-74 years and with a pre-existing diagnosis of osteoarthritis, arthroscopy should be approached with caution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Readmission followed by surgery to treat spinal fractures has a substantial impact on patient care costs and reflects a hospital's quality standards. This article analyzes the factors associated with hospital readmission followed by surgery to treat spinal fractures. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study with time-series analysis. For prediction analysis, we used Cox proportional hazards and machine-learning models, using data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Inpatient Database from Florida (USA). RESULTS The sample comprised 215,999 patients, 8.8% of whom were readmitted within 30 days. The factors associated with a risk of readmission were male sex (1.1 [95% confidence interval 1.06-1.13]) and >60 years of age (1.74 [95% CI: 1.69-1.8]). Surgeons with a higher annual patient volume presented a lower risk of readmission (0.61 [95% CI: 0.59-0.63]) and hospitals with an annual volume >393 presented a lower risk (0.92 [95% CI: 0.89-0.95]). CONCLUSION Surgical procedures and other selected predictors and machine-learning models can be used to reduce 30-day readmissions after spinal surgery. Identification of patients at higher risk for readmission and complications is the first step to reducing unplanned readmissions.

Zusmanovich M, Haselman W, Serrano B, Banffy M. The Incidence of Hip Arthroscopy in Patients With Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome and Labral Pathology Increased by 85% Between 2011 and 2018 in the United States. Arthroscopy 2022; 38:82-87. [PMID: 33964383 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2021.04.049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 71] [Impact Index Per Article: 35.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2020] [Revised: 04/14/2021] [Accepted: 04/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of hip arthroscopy in patients with labral pathology in the United States from 2011-2018 using a large national database. METHODS Patients who underwent hip arthroscopy from 2011-2018 were identified using Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes in the PearlDiver Patients Records Database (Colorado Springs, CO), which is a national database of orthopedic insurance records, including Medicare patients. The incidence of surgeries, age, and gender were all recorded. Groups were analyzed using SPSS version 24 (IBM, Armonk NY). CPT codes 29914/15/16 were introduced January 1, 2011 which is when we began our analysis. CPT-29999 and laterality were not assessed. RESULTS In total, 35,966 arthroscopies were identified between 2011 and 2018 from a randomly selected sample of 30 million orthopaedic patients from the PearlDiver Mariner dataset. The incidence increased by 85% from 2011 to 2018 (7.31 cases vs 13.54 cases per 100,000 patients). The distribution of the age of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy was bimodal with the mode of each peak at 18 years old and 42 years old, respectively. Females underwent surgery more frequently (67.9%) than males (32.1%). The most common CPT code for hip arthroscopy was 29914 (43.9) which corresponds to a hip arthroscopy with femoroplasty. CONCLUSIONS Our findings corroborate those of previous studies and support the increase in incidence of hip arthroscopy in the United States. We indicate an overall increase of 85% from 2011 to 2018 and support previous trends, such as higher incidence of hip arthroscopy in women. Our study also supports a decreasing mean age for patients, likely due to improved diagnostics and surgeon familiarity and comfort with the procedure.

Rate of continued conservative management versus progression to surgery at minimum one year follow-up in patients with pre-arthritic hip pain. PM R 2021; 14:575-586. [PMID: 34894417 PMCID: PMC9149117 DOI: 10.1002/pmrj.12746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2021] [Revised: 10/28/2021] [Accepted: 11/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Extensive literature has described surgical outcomes for pre-arthritic hip pain, but the proportion of patients who progress to surgery remains unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the proportion of patients who present to a tertiary referral center for pre-arthritic hip pain and progress to surgery at minimum one year follow-up. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Single tertiary care academic medical center. PATIENTS Thirteen to 40-year-olds who presented for initial evaluation to a conservative or surgical orthopedic specialist and were diagnosed with pre-arthritic hip pain (n=713 patients, 830 hips). INTERVENTION Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was the rate of progression to surgery at minimum one year follow-up for the entire cohort. Predictors of progression to surgery were determined for the entire cohort and for radiographically defined subgroups using multiple logistic regression. Candidate predictors included baseline demographic, radiographic, clinical diagnosis, and patient-reported outcome measures. RESULTS In a cohort with mean age 25.4 (SD 8.1) years, 72.7% female, and mean follow-up 2.6 (range 1.0-4.8) years, 429/830 hips (51.7% [95% CI 48.2%-55.1%]) progressed to surgery. Predictors of surgical progression in the entire cohort included younger age (OR 0.95/year [95% CI 0.93-0.98]), pain duration longer than six months (OR 1.87-2.03, p≤.027), worse physical function (OR 0.96/Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) point [0.92-0.99]), and a clinical diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) (OR 3.47 [2.05-5.89]), acetabular dysplasia (OR 2.75 [1.73-4.35]), and/or labral tear (OR 10.71 [6.98-16.47]). Radiographic dysplasia (lateral center edge angle<200 ) increased the likelihood of surgery in all subgroups (OR 2.05-8.47, p≤.008). Increasing maximum α angle increased the likelihood of surgery in patients with severe cam FAI (α>630 ) (OR 1.03/degree [1.00-1.06]). CONCLUSION Almost half of patients with pre-arthritic hip pain did not progress to surgery at minimum one year follow-up. A trial of conservative management is likely worthwhile in most patients.

Conversion to Total Hip Arthroplasty After Hip Arthroscopy: A Cohort-Based Survivorship Study With a Minimum of 2-Year Follow-up. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2021; 29:885-893. [PMID: 33201044 DOI: 10.5435/jaaos-d-20-00748] [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: 06/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to determine which patient, provider, and surgical factors influence progression to total hip arthroplasty (THA) after hip arthroscopy (HA) through a large cohort-based registry. METHODS All patients ≥18 years who underwent unilateral HA in Ontario, Canada, between October 1, 2010, and December 31, 2016, were identified with a minimum of 2-year follow-up. The rate of THA after HA was reported using Kaplan-Meier survivorship analyses. A Cox proportional hazard model was used to assess which factors independently influenced survivorship. RESULTS A total of 2,545 patients (53.2% female, mean age 37.4 ± 11.8 years) were identified. A total of 237 patients (9.3%) were identified to have undergone THA at a median time of 2 years after HA, with an additional 6.3% requiring a revision arthroplasty at a median time of 1.1 years. Patients who underwent isolated labral resection (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.55, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.51 to 4.60) or in combination with osteochondroplasty (OCP) [HR: 2.11, 95% CI: 1.22 to 3.88] were more likely to undergo THA versus patients who underwent isolated labral repair or in combination with an OCP, respectively. Older age increased the risk for THA (HR: 14.0, 95% CI: 5.76 to 39.1), and treatment by the highest-volume HA surgeons was found to be protective (HR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.33 to 0.89). DISCUSSION Using our methods, the rate of THA after HA was 9.3% at 2 years. The rate of revision arthroplasty was 6.3% at 1 year. Patients who underwent labral resection, isolated OCP, and/or were of increased age were at increased independent risk of conversion to THA. Those treated by the highest-volume HA surgeons were found to be at reduced risk of conversion to THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of patients requiring reoperation has increased as the volume of hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) has increased. The factors most important in determining patients who are likely to require reoperation remain elusive. PURPOSE To leverage machine learning to better characterize the complex relationship across various preoperative factors (patient characteristics, radiographic parameters, patient-reported outcome measures [PROMs]) for patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS to determine which features predict the need for future ipsilateral hip reoperation, namely, revision hip arthroscopy, total hip arthroplasty (THA), hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA), or periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A cohort of 3147 patients undergoing 3748 primary hip arthroscopy procedures were included from an institutional hip preservation registry. Preoperative computed tomography of the hip was obtained for each patient, from which the following parameters were calculated: the alpha angle; the coronal center-edge angle; the neck-shaft angle; the acetabular version angle at 1, 2, and 3 o'clock; and the femoral version angle. Preoperative PROMs included the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living subscale (HOS-ADL) and the Sport Specific subscale, and the international Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33). Random forest models were created for revision hip arthroscopy, the THA, the HRA, and the PAO. Area under the curve (AUC) for the receiver operating characteristic curve and accuracy were calculated to evaluate each model. RESULTS A total of 171 patients (4.6%) underwent subsequent hip surgery after primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS. The AUC and accuracy, respectively, were 0.77 (fair) and 76% for revision hip arthroscopy (mean, 26.4-month follow-up); 0.80 (good) and 81% for THA (mean, 32.5-month follow-up); 0.62 (poor) and 69% for HRA (mean, 45.4-month follow-up); and 0.76 (fair) and 74% for PAO (mean, 30.4-month follow-up). The most important factors in predicting reoperation after primary hip arthroscopy were higher body mass index (BMI) and lower preoperative HOS-ADL for revision hip arthroscopy, greater age and lower preoperative iHOT-33 for THA, increased BMI for HRA, and larger neck-shaft angle and lower preoperative mHHS for PAO. CONCLUSION Despite the low failure rate of hip arthroscopy for FAIS, our study demonstrated that machine learning has the capability to identify key preoperative risk factors that may predict subsequent ipsilateral hip surgery before the index hip arthroscopy. Knowledge of these demographic, radiographic, and patient-reported outcome data may aid in preoperative counseling and expectation management to better optimize hip preservation.

Abstract
Distraction is essential during hip arthroscopy to allow for adequate working space during central and peripheral compartment procedures. Pudendal posts are frequently used with traction boots to achieve distraction, but use of these posts is believed to be associated with the iatrogenic pudendal area and perineal nerve injuries seen with hip arthroscopy. Current post-free distraction tables are costly and cumbersome. The pink pad positioning device allows for post-free distraction through the creation of friction between the patient, the pad, and the bed. This device can be used with a standard hip arthroscopy table, is easy to learn, allows for adequate distraction, and allows for greater access to the femoral neck during osteochondroplasty, as there is less restriction of the patient's range of motion without a post present. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a method of post-free distraction using the pink pad positioning device.

Am J Sports Med 2021; 49:2482-2488.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although intra-articular injections are important in the management of patients who may later undergo hip arthroscopy, conflicting data are available regarding the safety of such injections when administered within 3 months of surgery. Furthermore, despite the increasing use of image-guided intra-articular hip injections, it is unknown whether the type of imaging modality used is associated with infection after hip arthroscopy. PURPOSE To assess the risk of infection associated with image-guided intra-articular injections before hip arthroscopy and, secondarily, compare that risk between ultrasound (US) and fluoroscopic (FL) guidance. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of patients in a large national insurance database who underwent hip arthroscopy between 2007 and 2017. Patients were required to have continuous enrollment from at least 1 year before to 6 months after hip arthroscopy. Patient age, sex, geographic region, medical history, surgical details, and hip injections were collected. Patients who underwent injection ≤3 months preoperatively and >3 to ≤12 months preoperatively were compared with patients who did not undergo preoperative injection. Bivariate analyses and multivariable logistic regressions were used to assess the association between ipsilateral preoperative hip injection and surgical site infection within 6 months of surgery. RESULTS We identified 17,987 patients (36.3% female; mean ± SD age, 37.6 ± 14.0 years) undergoing hip arthroscopy, 2276 (12.7%) of whom had an image-guided hip injection in the year preceding surgery (53.0% FL). Patients who underwent intra-articular injection ≤3 months preoperatively had similar infection rates to patients who did not undergo preoperative injection in the year before surgery for both the FL (0.46% vs 0.46%; P≥ .995) and the US cohorts (0.50% vs 0.46%; P = .76). Results persisted in adjusted analysis (FL ≤3 months: OR, 1.04; 95% CI, 0.32-3.37; P = .94; US ≤3 months: OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 0.36-3.90; P = .78). Similar results were seen for patients undergoing injections >3 to ≤12 months preoperatively. CONCLUSION Postoperative infection was rare in patients undergoing intra-articular hip injection ≤3 months before hip arthroscopy and was no more common than in patients not undergoing preoperative injection. Moreover, no differences were seen in infection risk between US and FL guidance. Although intra-articular hip injections should always be administered with careful consideration, these results do not suggest that these injections are uniformly contraindicated in the 3 months preceding hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
Telehealth videoconferencing has been shown to be feasible, cost-effective and safe in numerous fields of medicine. In an effort to increase access and improve the quality of care offered to patients we implemented a telehealth initiative allowing for remote orthopedic clinic visits at a major academic medical center. Here we report on our experience and early outcomes. A telehealth platform was launched for a single fellowship trained orthopedic surgeon at a major academic hospital in August 2018. New patients residing outside the metro area, all return patients and patients with an uncomplicated post-operative course were offered the option to complete patient encounters remotely via a telehealth platform. Each patient was offered a Patient Satisfaction Survey following video visit. Patient zip codes were used to estimate patient commutes. Ninety-six percent of patients agreed/strongly agreed with the statement 'I was satisfied with my Telehealth experience' while 51% agreed/strongly agreed with the statement 'This visit was just as good as a face to face visit'. In all, 94% of patients agreed/strongly agreed with the statement 'Having a telehealth visit made receiving care more accessible for me'. The median miles saved on commutes were 123.3 miles. The no show rate for telehealth visits was 8.2% versus 3.2% for in-person (P < 0.001). Telehealth video visits provided patients with a modality for completing orthopedic clinic visits while maintaining a high-quality care and patient satisfaction. Patient convenience was optimized with video visits with elimination of long commutes. Level of evidence: IV.

Abstract
Machine learning and artificial intelligence are increasingly used in modern health care, including arthroscopic and related surgery. Multiple high-quality, Level I evidence, randomized, controlled investigations have recently shown the ability of hip arthroscopy to successfully treat femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral tears. Contemporary hip preservation practice strives to continually refine and improve the value of care provision. Multiple single-center and multicenter prospective registries continue to grow as part of both United States-based and international hip preservation-specific networks and collaborations. The ability to predict postoperative patient-reported outcomes preoperatively holds great promise with machine learning. Machine learning requires massive amounts of data, which can easily be generated from electronic medical records and both patient- and clinician-generated questionnaires. On top of text-based data, imaging (e.g., plain radiographs, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) can be rapidly interpreted and used in both clinical practice and research. Formidable computational power is also required, using different advanced statistical methods and algorithms to generate models with the ability to predict individual patient outcomes. Efficient integration of machine learning into hip arthroscopy practice can reduce physicians' "busywork" of data collection and analysis. This can only improve the value of the patient experience, because surgeons have more time for shared decision making, with empathy, compassion, and humanity counterintuitively returning to medicine.

Correlation of the Single-Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) Score With Hip-Specific Patient-Reported Outcome Measures. Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil 2021; 3:e435-e440. [PMID: 34027452 PMCID: PMC8129469 DOI: 10.1016/j.asmr.2020.10.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2020] [Accepted: 10/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine if the Single-Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score correlates with existing validated hip-specific patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), including the Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), the International Hip Outcome Tool (IHOT-33), the Hip Outcome Score, Activities of Daily Living subscale (HOS-ADL), and the Hip Outcome Score, Sport-Specific subscale (HOS-SS), for patients preparing to undergo hip arthroscopy for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Methods A single surgeon's operative database was retrospectively reviewed to identify patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for treatment of FAIS from April 2018 to October 2019. Patient-specific factors including age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and duration of symptoms were collected. Preoperative SANE, mHHS, IHOT-33, HOS-ADL, and HOS-SS scores were analyzed. Statistical analysis using Pearson correlation was performed to identify the relationship between the SANE score and the mHHS, IHOT-33, HOS-ADL, and HOS-SS, preoperatively. Results 154 patients were included in the study. The mean mHHS was 54.4 ± 11.7; mean IHOT-33 score was 32.7 ± 15.0; mean HOS-SS 42.9 ± 23.7; and mean HOS-ADL was 63.3 ± 1. The mean SANE score was 36.7 ± 19.9. The Simple Hip Score was directly correlated with the mHHS (P < .01), the IHOT-33 (P < .01); the HOS-ADL (P < .01), and the HOS-SS (P < .01). The mean patient age was 35.9 years; 109 (70.8%) were female and 45 (29.2%) were male. Average patient BMI was 26.9. At the time of patient completion of the questionnaire, the majority of patients (65%) had been having symptoms for >1 year. Conclusion The SANE score was strongly correlated with mHHS, IHOT-33, HOS-ADL, and HOS-SS in the preoperative setting for patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for treatment of FAIS. Given its simplicity, SANE may be a valuable tool for rapid assessment of joint function and pain in this patient population. Level of Evidence IV, therapeutic case series.

Orthop J Sports Med 2021; 9:2325967120987538. [PMID: 34250156 PMCID: PMC8239984 DOI: 10.1177/2325967120987538] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Accepted: 10/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Hip arthroscopy has frequently been shown to produce successful outcomes as a
treatment for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and labral tears. However,
there is less literature on whether the favorable results of hip arthroscopy
can justify the costs, especially when compared with a nonoperative
treatment. Purpose: To systematically review the cost-effectiveness of hip arthroscopy for
treating FAI and labral tears. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases, and the Tufts
University Cost-Effectiveness Analysis Registry were searched to identify
articles that reported the cost per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY)
generated by hip arthroscopy. The key terms used were “hip arthroscopy,”
“cost,” “utility,” and “economic evaluation.” The threshold for
cost-effectiveness was set at $50,000/QALY. The Methodological Index for
Non-Randomized Studies instrument and Quality of Health Economic Studies
(QHES) score were used to determine the quality of the studies. This study
was prospectively registered on PROSPERO (CRD42020172991). Results: Six studies that reported the cost-effectiveness of hip arthroscopy were
identified, and 5 of these studies compared hip arthroscopy to a
nonoperative comparator. These studies were found to have a mean QHES score
of 85.2 and a mean cohort age that ranged from 33-37 years. From both a
health care system perspective and a societal perspective, 4 studies
reported that hip arthroscopy was more costly but resulted in far greater
gains than did nonoperative treatment. The preferred treatment strategy was
most sensitive to duration of benefit, preoperative osteoarthritis, cost of
the arthroscopy, and the improvement in QALYs with hip arthroscopy. Conclusion: In the majority of the studies, hip arthroscopy had a higher initial cost but
provided greater gain in QALYs than did a nonoperative treatment. In certain
cases, hip arthroscopy can be cost-effective given a long enough duration of
benefit and appropriate patient selection. However, there is further need
for literature to analyze willingness-to-pay thresholds.

Abstract
To determine interobserver and intraobserver reliabilities of the combination of classification systems, including the Beck and acetabular labral articular disruption (ALAD) systems for transition zone cartilage, the Outerbridge system for acetabular and femoral head cartilage, and the Beck system for labral tears. Additionally, we sought to determine interobserver and intraobserver agreements in the location of injury to labrum and cartilage. Three fellowship trained surgeons reviewed 30 standardized videos of the central compartment with one surgeon re-evaluating the videos. Labral pathology, transition zone cartilage and acetabular cartilage were classified using the Beck, Beck and ALAD systems, and Outerbridge system, respectively. The location of labral tears and transition zone cartilage injury was assessed using a clock face system, and acetabular cartilage injury using a five-zone system. Intra- and interobserver reliabilities are reported as Gwet’s agreement coefficients. Interobserver and intraobserver agreement on the location of acetabular cartilage lesions was highest in superior and anterior zones (0.814–0.914). Outerbridge interobserver and intraobserver agreement was >0.90 in most zones of the acetabular cartilage. Interobserver and intraobserver agreement on location of transition zone lesions was 0.844–0.944. The Beck and ALAD classifications showed similar interobserver and intraobserver agreement for transition zone cartilage injury. The Beck classification of labral tears was 0.745 and 0.562 for interobserver and intraobserver agreements, respectively. The Outerbridge classification had almost perfect interobserver and intraobserver agreement in classifying chondral injury of the true acetabular cartilage and femoral head. The Beck and ALAD classifications both showed moderate to substantial interobserver and intraobserver reliabilities for transition zone cartilage injury. The Beck system for classification of labral tears showed substantial agreement among observers and moderate intraobserver agreement. Interobserver agreement on location of labral tears was highest in the region where most tears occur and became lower at the anterior and posterior extents of this region. The available classification systems can be used for documentation regarding intra-articular pathology. However, continued development of a concise and highly reproducible classification system would improve communication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the negative effects of smoking have been documented for other types of arthroscopic procedures, there is limited information regarding its influence on hip arthroscopy outcomes. PURPOSE To examine the effect of smoking on the following outcomes after hip arthroscopy: patient-reported outcomes (PROs), the degree of improvement in PROs relative to baseline, complication rates, and rates of revision arthroscopy and/or conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA). STUDY DESIGN Systematic review. METHODS The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were queried for studies published between January 1, 1985, and January 14, 2020, comparing the outcomes of hip arthroscopy between smokers and nonsmokers. Case reports, basic science studies, and studies investigating pediatric patients or lacking a description of outcomes were excluded. Included outcome tools were the modified Harris Hip Score, the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and satisfaction, and the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Sports Specific and HOS-Activities of Daily Living. Preoperative characteristics and operative indications were also recorded. RESULTS Postoperative combined means (± SD) were better in nonsmokers versus smokers for the modified Harris Hip Score (75.67 ± 20.88 vs 82.32 ± 15.5; P = .001), the VAS pain (3.13 ± 2.79 vs 2.13 ± 2.21; P < .001), and the HOS-Sports Specific (62.54 ± 25.38 vs 71.7 ± 23.3; P < .001). There was no difference between groups in VAS satisfaction (P = .23) or HOS-Activities of Daily Living (P = .13). The extent of PRO score improvement relative to baseline values was similar in smokers and nonsmokers in all PRO measures (P > .05 for all). Smokers demonstrated higher rates of postoperative thromboembolic (P = .0177) and infectious (P = .006) complications. There was no difference between rates of revision arthroscopy (P = .47) and THA conversion (P = .31). CONCLUSION Smoking adversely affects certain postoperative PROs and is associated with higher postoperative complication rates. Further studies are required investigating the degree of PRO improvement and long-term arthroscopy revision and THA conversion rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the effect of arthroscopic simulator training on technical performance in a human model. METHODS A systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Literature searches of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were conducted using combinations of the terms virtual, digital, computer, reality, simulation, arthroscopy, training, learning, and education. Studies were considered for inclusion if they tested the effect of arthroscopic simulator training in a randomized controlled fashion, performed testing in a cadaver or live patient, and used explicit outcome measures of technical skill. Data from studies were extracted and study characteristics and outcomes were reviewed. The primary outcome measure was the number of studies in which the simulation trained group had significantly improved performance results relative to the control group in ≥50% of all measured outcomes. Risk of bias was assessed with Cochrane's Collaboration Tool. RESULTS Twelve studies, including 340 total study participants, were included for review. Eight studies showed improved performance of the simulation trained group relative to the control group in ≥50% of assessed outcomes. Six of ten studies reporting completion time, three of six studies reporting task checklist completion, 3 of 7 studies reporting global rating scales, and 1 of 4 studies reporting Arthroscopic Surgical Skill Evaluation Tool scores showed improved performance of the simulation group relative to the control group for the respective outcome measures. CONCLUSIONS The literature is limited due to heterogeneity, both in type and merit, of the outcome measures that have been used to assess the transfer validity of arthroscopic simulator training to clinical performance. Despite the limitations of the literature, this review demonstrates that arthroscopic simulator training has potential to improve clinical performance.

Abstract
Background: While previous studies have established several techniques for suture anchor repair of the acetabular labrum to bone during arthroscopic surgery, the current literature lacks evidence defining the appropriate number of suture anchors required to effectively restore the function of the labral tissue. Purpose/Hypothesis: To define the location and size of labral tears identified during hip arthroscopy for acetabular labral treatment in a large multicenter cohort. The secondary purpose was to differentiate the number of anchors used during arthroscopic labral repair. The hypothesis was that the location and size of the labral tear as well as the number of anchors identified would provide a range of fixation density per acetabular region and fixation method to be used as a guide in performing arthroscopic repair. Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: We used a multicenter registry of prospectively collected hip arthroscopy cases to find patients who underwent arthroscopic labral repair by 1 of 7 orthopaedic surgeons between January 2015 and January 2017. The tear location and number of anchors used during repair were described using the clockface method, where 3 o’clock denoted the anterior extent of the tear and 9 o’clock the posterior extent, regardless of sidedness (left or right). Tear size was denoted as the number of “hours” spanned per clockface arc. Chi-square and univariate analyses of variance were performed to evaluate the data for both the entire group and among surgical centers. Results: A total of 1978 hips underwent arthroscopic treatment of the acetabular labrum; the most common tear size had a 3-hour span (n = 820; 41.5%). Of these hips, 1645 received labral repair, with most common repair location at the 12- to 3-o’clock position (n = 537; 32.6%). The surgeons varied in number of anchors per repair according to labral size (P < .001 for all), using 1 to 1.6 anchors for 1-hour tears, 1.7 to 2.4 anchors for 2-hour tears, 2.1 to 3.2 anchors for 3-hour tears, and 2.2 to 4.1 for 4-hour tears. Conclusion: Variation existed in the number of anchor implants per tear size. When labral repair involved a mean clockface arc >2 hours, at least 2 anchor points were fixated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip capsulotomies, performed routinely during hip arthroscopy, can contribute to adverse joint kinematics. Direct repair is not always feasible. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanics of a conventional all-suture repair versus a hybrid suture and anchor-based capsular repair. METHODS Nine paired (n = 18) hips were tested on a joint-motion simulator, utilizing optical trackers to capture kinematic data. Pairs were randomly allocated to capsular repair type and tested as (1) intact, (2) after T-capsulotomy, and (3) repair each at 0°, 45°, and 90° flexion. Internal and external rotation torques and abduction/adduction torques of 3 N·m were applied and rotational range of motion and joint translations recorded. FINDINGS At 0°, following repair there were no significant differences in joint rotation or translations between repairs (p > 0.134). At 45°, both repair types restored motion to near intact values, with no significant differences between groups. Similarly, there were no significant differences in joint translations between repairs. At 90°, both types of capsular repair failed to restore rotational range of motion, with persistent increases in motion (47.0 ± 16.7°) compared to the intact condition (44.1 ± 15.8°, p = 0.006); however, there were no significant differences between repair groups. There were no significant differences in joint translations between repairs. INTERPRETATION Use of a hybrid repair produced comparable joint rotation and translation under all testing conditions as an all-suture repair. As such, this technique represents a viable option for capsular repair where proximal capsular tissue is deficient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several techniques for hip capsular reconstruction have been described to address gross instability or microinstability due to capsular deficiency. However, objective biomechanical data to support their use are lacking. PURPOSE To compare the kinematic effect of 2 capsular reconstruction techniques (iliotibial band [ITB] graft and Achilles tendon graft). Kinematic effect encompassed rotational range of motion (ROM) as well as joint translation in the coronal, sagittal, and axial planes. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS 8 paired, fresh-frozen hemi-pelvises (16 hips) were tested on a custom-designed joint motion simulator in the intact state and after capsulectomy. Pairs were randomly allocated to either ITB or Achilles reconstruction and retested. Testing was performed at 0°, 45°, and 90° of flexion. Internal-external rotation (IR-ER) torques and abduction-adduction torques of 3 N·m were applied to the femur via a load cell at each position, and rotational ROM and joint translation in the coronal, sagittal, and axial planes were recorded. RESULTS At 45° and 90°, there was a significant effect of the condition of the hip on the total IR-ER (P = .004, effect size [ES] = 0.305; and P < .001, ES = 0.497; respectively). At 45°, mean ± SD total rotation was significantly greater for the capsulectomy (59.7°± 15.9°) state compared with intact (53.3°± 13.2°; P = .007). At 90°, reconstruction significantly decreased total rotation to 49.0°± 18.9° compared with a mean total rotation of 52.8°± 18.7° after capsulectomy (P = .02). No difference was seen in the total abduction-adduction of the hip between conditions. Comparisons of the 2 different reconstruction techniques showed no significant differences in total IR-ER or abduction-adduction ROM or joint translation in the coronal, sagittal, or axial planes. For translation, at both 0° and 45° there was a statistically significant effect of the condition on the medial-lateral translation (P = .033; ES = 0.204). Reconstruction, independent of technique, was successful in significantly decreasing (P = .030; P = .014) the mean medial-lateral translation at 0° and 45° of hip flexion from 5.2 ± 3.8 mm and 5.6 ± 4.0 mm to 2.8 ± 1.9 mm and 3.9 ± 3.2 mm, respectively. CONCLUSION The integrity of the native hip capsule played a significant role in rotational stability, where capsulectomy significantly increased rotational ROM. Both ITB and Achilles reconstruction techniques restored normal rotational ROM of the hip at 90° of flexion as well as coronal plane stability at 0° and 45° of hip flexion. No differences were seen between ITB and Achilles reconstruction techniques. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Both capsular reconstruction techniques provide comparable joint kinematics, restoring rotation and translation to normal values with the exception of rotational ROM at 45°, which remained significantly greater than the intact state. The most significant results were the rotational stability at 90° of hip flexion and coronal plane stability at 0° and 45° of hip flexion, which were significantly improved compared with the capsulectomy state.

Abstract
PURPOSE To noninvasively characterize the ligament strain in the hip capsule using a novel CT-based imaging technique. METHODS The superior iliofemoral ligament (SIFL), inferior iliofemoral ligament (IIFL), ischiofemoral ligament (IFL) and pubofemoral ligament (PFL) were identified and beaded in seven cadavers. Specimens were mounted on a joint motion simulator within an O-arm CT scanner in - 15°, 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° of flexion. 3 Nm of internal rotation (IR) and external rotation (ER) were applied and CT scans obtained. Strains were calculated by comparing bead separation in loaded and unloaded conditions. Repeated-measures ANOVA was used to evaluate differences in strain within ligaments between hip positions. RESULTS For the SIFL, strain significantly decreased in IR at 30° (p = 0.045) and 60° (p = 0.043) versus 0°. For ER, there were no significant position-specific changes in strain (n.s.). For the IIFL, strain decreased in IR and increased in ER with no significant position-specific differences. For the IFL, strain increased with IR and decreased with ER with no significant position-specific differences. Finally, in the PFL there was a significant flexion angle-by-load interaction (p < 0.001; ES = 0.566), with peak strains noted at 60˚, however pair-wise comparisons failed to identify significant differences between positions (n.s.). Strain decreased in ER, with no significant position-specific differences. CONCLUSION The SIFL and IIFL limit hip external rotation with greater effect in higher flexion angles, while the IFL and PFL limit hip internal rotation. Following hip arthroscopy, consideration should be given to restricting external rotation as traditional capsulotomies cause injury to the SIFL and IIFL.

[PMID: 32145300 PMCID: PMC9126109 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.02.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2019] [Revised: 02/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/11/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the incidence and characterize the severity of iatrogenic cartilage injuries. METHODS Technique videos of arthroscopic femoral acetabular impingement procedures and meniscus repairs on VuMedi (n = 85) and Arthroscopy Techniques (n = 45) were reviewed and iatrogenic cartilage injuries were identified and graded (minor, intermediate, and major injury) by 2 independent reviewers. To demonstrate that even minor injuries on a cellular scale result in damage, a bovine osteochondral explant was used to create comparable minor iatrogenic injuries at varied forces that do not disrupt the articular surface (1.5 N, 2.5 N, and 9.8 N). Dead chondrocytes at the site of injury were stained with ethidium homodimer-2 and imaged with an Olympus FV1000 confocal microscope. χ2 tests were used for analysis; all results with P < .05 were considered significant. RESULTS In total, 130 videos of arthroscopic meniscus and femoral acetabular impingement procedures were analyzed and the incidence of iatrogenic cartilage injury was 73.8%. There were 110 (70.0%) minor, 35 (22.3%) intermediate, and 11 (7.0%) major iatrogenic injuries. All forces tested in the minor injury bovine model resulted in chondrocyte death at the site of contact. CONCLUSIONS Iatrogenic articular cartilage injuries are common in arthroscopy, occurring in more than 70% of the surgeon-published instructional videos analyzed. At least some chondrocyte death occurs with minor simulated iatrogenic injuries (1.5 N). CLINICAL RELEVANCE The high rate of cartilage damage during arthroscopic technique videos likely under-represents the true incidence in clinical practice. Cell death occurs in the bovine minor injury model with minimal contact forces. This suggests iatrogenic cartilage damage during arthroscopy could contribute to clinical outcomes.

Editorial Commentary: Emergency Department Evaluation After Hip Arthroscopy Occurs More than Expected: Here's Where Patient Education and a Multimodal Approach to Pain Management Can Be Helpful. Arthroscopy 2020; 36:1584-1586. [PMID: 32503772 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.03.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2020] [Accepted: 03/03/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Hip arthroscopy is known to be a relatively safe procedure with a limited and unique set complications and low hospital readmission rates. Many patients, however, may seek emergency department evaluation after surgery for postoperative pain or complaints unrelated to the most commonly cited complications, such as traction neuropraxia. It is important to recognize and understand the reasons why patients seek medical care after surgery because many of these encounters may be preventable with optimization of perioperative multimodal pain control regimens and proper patient education regarding their expected postoperative course. Patients with barriers to health care access, such as Medicare and Medicaid patients, may be at higher risk for emergency department evaluation of their problems after surgery and clinicians should consider providing additional counseling to these patients regarding when and how to seek medical evaluation after surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hip arthroscopy is known to be safe with low rates of postoperative complications. The purpose of this study is to evaluate hip arthroscopy cases in a national surgical database to identify risk factors associated with readmission. METHODS The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried from 2012 to 2016 for current procedural terminology billing codes related to hip arthroscopy. International Classification of Diseases diagnostic codes were used to exclude cases involving infection, fracture, or open procedures. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with 30-day readmission. RESULTS 1493 patients were identified who had undergone hip arthroscopy. The most common procedures were labral resection or chondroplasty (n = 589, 39.5%) and femoroplasty (n = 527, 35.3%). The 30-day complication rate was 1.7% and the most common complications following the procedure were bleeding (n = 12, 0.8%) superficial infections (n = 5, 0.3%), and returning to the operating room (n = 4, 0.3%). The 30-day readmission rate was 1.3%. On multivariate analysis, hypertension requiring anti-hypertensive medication (odds ratio [OR], 3.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4-8.7) and chronic corticosteroid or immunosuppressant use (OR 7.2; 95% CI 1.9-26.7) were identified as independent risk factors for readmission. There was no difference in complication rates when hip arthroscopy was performed with isolated femoroplasty (n = 340), isolated acetabuloplasty (n = 103), both (n = 187) or neither (n = 863). CONCLUSION These findings confirm that the 30-day readmission (1.3%) and complication rate (1.7%) are low for isolated hip arthroscopy procedures; however, hypertension and chronic steroid use are independent risk factors for readmission. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective comparative study, Level III.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effectiveness of celecoxib, a selective cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, in reducing heterotopic ossification (HO) after hip arthroscopic surgery and to evaluate celecoxib's impact on clinical outcomes. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of patients who received hip arthroscopy performed by the same surgeon between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2016. Patients who had an allergy to sulfa drugs, had pre-existing HO or previous surgery on the operative side, or failed to complete radiographic follow-up at 6 months postoperatively were excluded. Patients in the treatment group received 400 mg of celecoxib postoperatively for 6 weeks, whereas the control group received no postoperative celecoxib. The incidence of HO was assessed using anteroposterior radiographs obtained at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively. Patients completed the International Hip Outcome Tool 33 survey, and the proportion of patients who met the minimal clinically important difference, substantial clinical benefit (SCB), and absolute SCB was calculated. RESULTS A total of 559 patients were identified. After application of the exclusion criteria, 454 patients were included in the study (211 in control group and 243 in treatment group). The overall incidence of HO was 20.3% (n = 92). The treatment group had a significantly lower incidence of HO at 6 months (P = .006), 1 year (P < .001), and 2 years (P = .008) postoperatively. At 2 years postoperatively, the treatment group had a significantly higher International Hip Outcome Tool 33 score on average: 64.2 versus 57.3 (P = .023). No significant difference in the proportion of patients reaching the minimal clinically important difference, SCB, or absolute SCB was found at any of the postoperative time points. CONCLUSION The findings of this study suggest that a prophylactic treatment regimen of 400 mg of celecoxib once daily for 6 weeks significantly reduces the incidence of HO formation after hip arthroscopic surgery; however, it did not impact clinical outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective, comparative case-control study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments typically are delivered via paper or computer; we validated administration of hip-specific instruments over a mobile phone software communication platform outside a clinical encounter. METHODS Consecutive patients (n = 69) presenting to a hip preservation clinic completed the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Short Form physical function and pain subscales (HOOS-PS and HOOS-PAIN) using standard collection techniques. The subsequent day, patients completed these instruments via a text messaging software program. Text reminders were sent to encourage completion of unanswered questions. Correlation between in-office and mobile phone delivery of PROs was assessed. RESULTS The intraclass correlation coefficient between in-clinic and mobile phone delivery of HOOS-PS and HOOS-PAIN was 0.72 (95% confidence interval, 0.58 to 0.81) and 0.80 (95% confidence interval, 0.69 to 0.87), respectively. Completion rate of 93% (64 of the 69) was observed using mobile phone and software messaging. Nine patients completed their PRO after being sent a text message reminder. Fifty-one percent of patients completed all PRO questions within 5 minutes; 26% took between 5 and 10 minutes, and 16% took 10 to 30 minutes for completion. DISCUSSION HOOS-PS and HOOS-PAIN PRO instruments administered via text messaging with automated reminders demonstrate good to excellent reproducibility, no minimal detectable change between communication methods, and a high completion rate in adolescents and young adults with hip pain. Mobile phone delivery via automated software may be a valid method for administration of other PROs, allowing for communication with patients anytime and anywhere.

Abstract
There has been an increase in the number of hip arthroscopy procedures performed in the outpatient setting. The purpose of this study was to query a national database to compare post-operative adverse events between hip arthroscopy procedures performed in hospital based outpatient departments (HOPD) versus ASC's. The Humana Claims Database was queried for all patients undergoing hip arthroscopy performed between 2007 and 2016, using the PearlDiver supercomputer. The study population was divided into two cohorts based on the surgical setting, ASC or HOPD. Complications of interest occurring within 90 days after surgery included Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)-reportable complications, readmission, and return to the operating room. Visits to the emergency department after 7 days of surgery was also studied. Univariate comparisons between ASC and HOPD groups were drawn with chi-square tests for categorical variables and t-tests for continuous variables. Logistic regression models were created to determine the association between surgical setting and primary outcomes. Rates of 90-day CMS-reportable complications (2.95% vs 2.17%%; p = 0.193), 90-day readmission (4.95% vs 4.25%; p = 0.370) and return to the operating room within 90 days (0.07% vs 0.2%; p = 0.286) were not significantly different between groups. Rate of visits to the emergency department within 7 days was not statistically different between groups (2.57% vs 3.03%; p = 0.458). With the ASC group as reference, no statistically significant association between an outcome and surgical setting was detected after adjusting for confounding factors including comorbidity burden. These findings provide reassurance to providers who perform these procedures in either surgical setting.

Abstract
Readmission after hip arthroscopic surgery is an undesired and unusual event. The causes may range from wound-related issues, deep infection, increasing pain, complications of surgery, to medical events. It adds to the economic burden of the procedure and causes unnecessary anguish to the patients and indeed clinicians. It is also one of the less-studied areas of hip arthroscopic surgery because of its rarity. There would be benefit in being able to identify the risk factors of readmission such that pre-emptive measures can be put in place to prevent or indeed counsel the patients before the surgery. In certain cases, readmission may remain an unpreventable event. In our experience, the readmission rate after hip arthroscopy is 0.5%, whereas patients with elevated body mass index are at greater risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE To perform a population-level analysis of the shifts in use of hip arthroscopy by different age groups and to describe the proportion of hip arthroscopy procedures performed by high-volume surgeons. METHODS The Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System database was combined with New York State census data to calculate changes in annual hip arthroscopy incidence by age and gender (2004-16). Annual (January to January) surgeon volumes were calculated and stratified into 4 thresholds that have been associated with significant differences in revision hip surgery rates to calculate changes in hip arthroscopy rates by surgeon volume over time. RESULTS There was a 495% increase in hip arthroscopies from 2004 to 2016, from 2.35 to 15.47 per 100,000 residents in New York State. The largest increase was in the 10-19 years age group-a 2,150% increase for female patients (= 1.26, P < .001) and a 1,717% increase for male patients (incident rate ratio = 1.21, P < .001). The number of labral repairs performed with femoroplasty increased 52.8% (P < .001). The number of hip arthroscopy surgeons increased from 3.4 to 6.5 per 1 million residents. The number of hip arthroscopies performed by high-volume surgeons increased from 0% in 2004 to 24.7% in 2016. CONCLUSIONS The use of hip arthroscopy has increased over the past 10 years, especially in the adolescent population ages 10-19. Over the same time period, there has been an emergence of high-volume hip arthroscopy surgeons and an increased proportion of procedures performed by these surgeons. Patients of high-volume surgeons tend to be younger, while lower volume surgeons tend to have older patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, case series.

Abstract
Background The rate of hip arthroscopy has increased significantly in recent years, although understanding of patient perception remains limited. Purpose To analyze posts shared on Instagram and Twitter referencing hip arthroscopy to evaluate perspective, tone, timing, content, visibility, and location. Study Design Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods A search of public posts on Instagram and Twitter was performed over a 1-year period, selected through use of the following hashtags: #hiparthroscopy, #hipscope, and #labralrepair. A total of 1850 Instagram posts and 163 Twitter posts were included in the analysis. A categorical classification system was used for media format (picture or video), perspective (patient, family or friend, physician, hospital or physical therapy group, professional organization, news media, or industry), timing (preoperative, postoperative, nonoperative), perioperative period (within 1 week before or after surgery), tone (positive, negative, or neutral), and content (surgical site, hospital or surgeon, imaging, rehabilitation, activities of daily living (ADLs), return to work, surgical instruments, or education). Post popularity (number of likes) and geographic location were also recorded. Results Of the 1850 Instagram posts analyzed, 91.2% were made by patients, and 52.9% were positive. The most common content included in Instagram posts was rehabilitation, ADLs, and hospital or surgeon. A total of 163 Twitter posts were analyzed, with 59.0% of posts made by physicians. A majority of posts had a positive tone, and the most frequently referenced themes included education, hospital or surgeon, and rehabilitation. Overall, posts originated from 24 different countries. Conclusion The majority of patients who undergo hip arthroscopy have a positive tone when discussing their procedure. Posts commonly focused on rehabilitation, ADLs, hospital or surgeon, and education. This analysis provides insight into patient perspectives toward hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To administer the Hip Preservation Surgery Expectations Survey to a large sample of patients to ascertain the prevalence of their preoperative expectations and to assess expectations in terms of demographic and clinical characteristics. METHODS Consecutive patients were enrolled if they were ≥18 years old/spoke English and excluded if they had prior hip surgery/degenerative changes Tönnis ≥2. Patients completed the 21-item survey addressing the amount of improvement expected for each item (number of items and an overall score were determined) and the International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT; hip score determined). Analyses included multivariable regression with survey score and number of expectations as dependent variables. Subanalyses considered collegiate/professional, competitive, and recreational sports level. RESULTS Three hundred two patients participated, with a mean age of 32; 270 (89%) had cam impingement, 72 (24%) had symptoms <6 months, and mean iHOT score was 41. One hundred twenty patients (40%) selected all 21 survey items, 112 (37%) selected 18 to 20, and 70 (23%) selected ≤17 items. In multivariable analysis, younger age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.3; P = .02), symptoms <6 months (OR = 1.3; P = .03), and worse iHOT score (OR = 2.5; P = .0001) were associated with selecting more items. The mean survey score was 80 (range, 31-100). In multivariable analysis, younger age (P = .05), symptoms <6 months (P = .01), and worse iHOT score (P = .03) were associated with greater survey scores. Collegiate/professional athletes selected more items (P = .01) and were more likely to select improvement in sports performance (OR = 7.5; P = .001), achievement of athletic potential (OR = 3.7; P = .002), and maintaining options for more demanding future activities (OR = 2.7; P = .01). CONCLUSIONS Patients had multiple expectations for marked improvement in current and future physical function and psychological well-being. Younger patients, shorter symptom duration, and worse hip-specific functional status were associated with greater expectations. Understanding patients' expectations can guide preoperative education regarding realistic expectations for recovery and long-term outcome. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Patients' preoperative expectations vary according to demographic and clinical characteristics as measured in a survey study.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the trends in labral repair in American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery Part II candidates performing hip arthroscopy. METHODS Candidates who performed arthroscopic hip surgery between 2011 and 2015 during their American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery Part II board collection period were identified using Current Procedural Terminology codes (29860, 29861, 29862, 29863, 29914, 29915, 29916). The proportion of hip arthroscopy cases including labral repair (Current Procedural Terminology code 29916) were calculated for each year and analyzed by fellowship training experience. Trends in labral repair utilization were calculated using univariate and regression analyses, with significance set at P < .05. RESULTS During the study period, 1,606 hip labral repair cases were performed, with a 35% increase in utilization between 2011 and 2015. Overall, labral repair was performed in 64.8% (1,606/2,480) of hip arthroscopy cases, with a significant increase between 2011 and 2015 (47.4% vs 79.2%; P < .001). Of the hip arthroscopy cases including labral repair, 80.4% (1,291/1,606) were performed by candidates with sports medicine fellowship training. The proportion of hip arthroscopy cases including labral repair was highest for surgeons with sports medicine fellowship training compared with those without sports medicine fellowship training (66.1% vs 59.8%; P = .007). Candidates with sports medicine training performing at least 1 labral repair each year increased from 68% to 89% over the study period (P = .0007). The average number of labral repairs per candidate increased significantly over the duration of the study period (P = .0072). CONCLUSIONS Labral repair utilization during hip arthroscopy procedures nearly doubled from 2011 to 2015 for American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery Part II candidates, reflecting a significant change in practice. Current data suggest that nearly 80% of hip arthroscopy procedures include labral repair. These trends may reflect the current practice patterns at academic institutions with sports medicine fellowships.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the use of hip arthroscopy continues to increase, capsular management remains a controversial topic. PURPOSE To investigate the biomechanical effect of capsulotomy and capsular repair techniques on hip joint kinematics in varying combinations of sagittal and coronal joint positions. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Eight fresh-frozen hemi-pelvises (78.3 ± 6.0 years of age; 4 left, 6 male) were dissected of all overlying soft tissue, with the exception of the hip joint capsule. The femur was potted and attached to a load cell, while the pelvis was secured to a custom-designed fixture allowing static alteration of the flexion-extension arc. Optotrak markers were rigidly attached to the femur and pelvis to track motion of the femoral head with respect to the acetabulum. After specimen preparation, 7 conditions were tested: (1) intact, (2) after portal placement (anterolateral and midanterior), (3) interportal capsulotomy (IPC) (35 mm in length), (4) IPC repair, (5) T-capsulotomy (IPC +15-mm longitudinal incision), (6) partial T-repair (repair of longitudinal incision with IPC left open), (7) full T-repair. All conditions were tested in 15° of extension (-15°), 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° of flexion. Additionally, all flexion angles were tested in neutral, as well as in specimen-specific maximum abduction and adduction, resulting in 15 testing positions. Internal rotation (IR) and external rotation (ER) moments of 3 N·m were manually applied to the femur via the load cell at each position. Rotational range of motion and joint kinematics were recorded. RESULTS In the neutral coronal plane, T-capsulotomy significantly increased IR/ER rotational range of motion compared with intact state at -15° (55.96°± 6.11° vs 44.92°± 7.35°, P < .001), while IPC significantly increased rotation compared with the portal state at 0° (60.09°± 6.82° vs 51.68°± 10.35°, P = .004). No statistically significant increases were found in mediolateral joint translation after IPC or T-capsulotomy. Similarly, no statistically significant increases were noted in anteroposterior translation after IPC or T-capsulotomy. Complete capsular repair restored near native joint kinematics, with no significant differences in rotation or translation between any complete capsular repair groups and the intact state, regardless of joint position. CONCLUSION Universally, across all conditions, complete capsular repair after interportal or T-capsulotomy restored rotational range of motion and joint translation to values observed in the native joint. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Where feasible, complete capsular closure should be performed, especially after T-capsulotomy. However, further clinical evaluation is required to determine whether adverse kinematic parameters of an unrepaired capsule are associated with reduced patient-reported outcomes.

Relationship Between PROMIS Computer Adaptive Tests and Legacy Hip Measures Among Patients Presenting to a Tertiary Care Hip Preservation Center. Am J Sports Med 2019; 47:876-884. [PMID: 30753105 DOI: 10.1177/0363546518825252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Legacy hip outcome measures may be burdensome to patients and sometimes yield floor or ceiling effects. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) computer adaptive tests (CATs) allow for low-burden data capture and limited ceiling and floor effects. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to determine whether the PROMIS CAT domains demonstrate correlation against commonly used legacy patient-reported outcome measures in a population of patients presenting to a tertiary care hip preservation center. The authors hypothesized the following: (1) PROMIS CAT scores based on physical function (PF), pain interference (PIF), pain behavior, and pain intensity would show strong correlation with the following legacy scores: modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12), Hip Outcome Score (HOS) Sports and Activities of Daily Living subscales, and Veterans RAND-6D (VR-6D) utility measure. (2) The mental and physical health portions of the VR-6D legacy measure would show weak correlation with mental- and psychosocial-specific PROMIS elements-depression, anxiety, fatigue, sleep, and ability to participate in social roles and activities. (3) All PROMIS measures would exhibit fewer floor and ceiling effects than legacy scores. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Prospective data were collected on 125 patients in the hip preservation clinics. Enrollees completed legacy scores (visual analog scale for pain, mHHS, iHOT-12, HOS, and VR-6D) and PROMIS CAT questionnaires (PF, PIF, pain behavior, anxiety, depression, sleep, social roles and activities, pain intensity, fatigue). Spearman rank correlations were calculated, with rs values of 0 to 0.3 indicating negligible correlation; 0.3 to 0.5, weak correlation; 0.5 to 0.7, moderately strong correlation; and >0.7, strong correlation. Floor and ceiling effects were evaluated. RESULTS As anticipated, the PF-CAT yielded strong correlations with the iHOT-12, mHHS, HOS-Sports, HOS-Activities of Daily Living, and VR-6D, with rs values of 0.76, 0.71, 0.81, 0.87, and 0.71, respectively. The PIF-CAT was the only pain score to show moderately strong to strong correlation with all 14 patient-reported outcome measures. A strong correlation was observed between the VR-6D and the social roles and activities CAT ( rs = 0.73). The depression CAT had a significant floor effect at 19%. No additional floor or ceiling effect was present for any other legacy or PROMIS measure. CONCLUSION The PF-CAT shows strong correlation with legacy patient-reported outcome scores among patients presenting to a tertiary care hip preservation center. The PIF-CAT also correlates strongly with legacy and PROMIS measures evaluating physical and mental well-being. PROMIS measures are less burdensome and demonstrate no floor or ceiling effects, making them a potential alternative to legacy patient-reported outcome measures for the hip.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine pre- and postoperative opioid utilization while identifying risk factors for prolonged postoperative opioid use following hip arthroscopy. METHODS All patients undergoing hip arthroscopy between 2007 and the second quarter of 2016 were identified within the Humana Inc. administrative claims database. Chronic preoperative opioid utilization was defined as filling of any opioid prescription 1 to 3 months before surgery, whereas acute preoperative opioid utilization was defined as filling any opioid prescription within 1 month of surgery. Rates of pre- and postoperative opioid utilization were calculated, and patient demographic characteristics and medical conditions associated with pre- and postoperative opioid utilization were identified. RESULTS Of the 1,208 patients undergoing hip arthroscopy, chronic and acute preoperative opioid utilization was observed in 24.9% and 17.3% of patients, respectively. Chronic preoperative opioid utilization was more frequently observed in obese (P < .001) patients, those ≥50 years of age (P = .002), and those with preexisting anxiety and/or depression (P < .001). In multivariate analysis, chronic preoperative opioid utilization was the strongest predictor of opioid prescription filling at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months postoperatively (odds ratio at 3 months, 18.60, 95% confidence interval, 12.41 to 28.55), whereas preexisting anxiety and/or depression and obesity were additionally identified as predictors of prolonged postoperative opioid utilization. CONCLUSIONS Chronic preoperative opioid utilization before hip arthroscopy is common at 24.9%. The high rate of chronic preoperative opioid utilization is particularly important considering that chronic preoperative opioid utilization is the strongest predictor of continued postoperative opioid prescription filling out to 12 months postoperatively. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, retrospective case series.

Abstract
There is currently no widely accepted classification system of intra-articular damage in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The goal of this study is to correlate the Scoring Hip Osteoarthritis with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (SHOMRI) system with arthroscopic findings in symptomatic FAI patients to justify its use in this setting. Symptomatic FAI patients scheduled for hip arthroscopy were prospectively enrolled. Prior to surgery, radiographs, and an MRI were obtained of the affected hip and all patients completed the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) questionnaire. Each MRI was graded using the SHOMRI system. Intraoperatively, cartilage and labral injury grades were recorded. SHOMRI scores were then correlated with the intraoperative cartilage and labral grades as well as preoperative radiographic findings and HOOS scores. Forty-three patients were analyzed (mean age 35.7 years, 58.1% male). SHOMRI total scores correlated with intraoperative femoral cartilage grade (ρ = 0.42; p = 0.002), acetabular cartilage grade (ρ = 0.30; p = 0.046), and labral tear grade (ρ = 0.42; p = 0.003) as well as with preoperative Tönnis grade (ρ = 0.37, p = 0.013), HOOS pain score (ρ = -0.33; p = 0.039), HOOS ADL score (ρ = -0.39; p = 0.007), and HOOS sports score (ρ = -0.30; p = 0.037). In conclusion, total scores from the SHOMRI system showed significant correlation with arthroscopic findings as well as radiographic gradings and clinical symptoms in patients with FAI. Use of this quantitative system to assess the burden of chondrolabral damage in FAI appears valid. © 2018 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the geographic and demographic variations and time trends of different types of meniscal procedures in New York State to determine whether disparities exist in access to treatment. METHODS The New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) outpatient database was reviewed to identify patients who underwent elective, primary knee arthroscopy between January 1, 2003, and December 31, 2015, for 1 of the following diagnosis-related categories: Group 1, meniscectomy; Group 2, meniscal repair; and Group 3, meniscal allograft transplantation, with or without anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The 3 groups of meniscal procedures were compared on geographic distribution, patient age, insurance, concomitant ACLR, and surgeon and hospital volume over the study period. RESULTS A total of 649,470 patients who underwent knee arthroscopy between 2003 and 2015 were identified for analysis. Both meniscectomies and meniscal repairs had a scattered distribution throughout New York State, with allograft volume concentrated at urban academic hospitals. The majority of patients who underwent any meniscal procedure had private insurance, with Medicaid patients having the lowest rates of meniscal surgery. At high-volume hospitals, meniscal repairs and allografts are being performed with increasing frequency, especially in patients <25 years of age. Meniscal repairs are being performed concomitantly with ACLR with increasing frequency. CONCLUSIONS Meniscal repairs and allografts are being performed at high-volume hospitals for privately insured patients with increasing frequency. Geographic access to these treatments, particularly allografts, is limited. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Disparities in the availability of advanced meniscal treatment require further investigation and understanding to improve access to care.

Abstract
There has been a dramatic rise in the use of large-scale health administrative databases to investigate clinical outcomes within sports medicine over the past few years. Although these data sets identify large numbers of patients, allowing for the investigation of regional trends, health care utilization, and outcomes of surgical intervention, they were not designed with the intention of answering clinical questions. Recognizing the methodological limitations associated with these databases is prudent to avoid propagating spurious conclusions. This article offers an overview of the administrative databases commonly used within the orthopedic sports medicine literature and provides key principles for their critical appraisal.

Abstract
The existing literature on subjects with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome undergoing arthroscopic or open hip preservation surgery reveals that outcome reporting is heterogeneous. There is significant inconsistency in patient-reported outcome scores collected, symptoms and complaints assessed, clinical signs evaluated, and pre- and postoperative imaging metrics measured.
