In-vivo hip arthrokinematics during supine clinical exams: Application to the study of femoroacetabular impingement.

ABSTRACT: Visualization of hip articulation relative to the underlying anatomy (i.e., arthrokinematics) is required to understand hip dysfunction in femoroacetabular (FAI) patients. In this exploratory study, we quantified in-vivo arthrokinematics of a small cohort of asymptomatic volunteers and three symptomatic patients with varying FAI deformities during the passive impingement, FABER, and rotational profile exams using dual fluoroscopy and model-based tracking. Joint angles, joint translations, and relative pelvic angles were calculated. Compared to the 95% confidence interval of the asymptomatic cohort, FAI patients appeared to have decreased adduction and internal rotation during the impingement exam and greater flexion and less abduction/external rotation in the FABER exam. During the rotational profile, only the FAI patient with the most severe deformities demonstrated considerable rotation deficits. In all participants, contact between the labrum and femoral head/neck limited motion during the impingement exam, but not the rotational profile. Substantial pelvic motion was measured during the impingement exam and FABER test in all participants. Femoral translation along any given anatomical direction ranged between 0.69 and 4.1mm. These results suggest that hip articulation during clinical exams is complex in asymptomatic hips and hips with FAI, incorporating pelvic motion and femur translation. Range of motion appears to be governed by femur-labrum contact and other soft tissue constraints, suggesting that current computer simulations that rely on direct bone contact to predict impingement may be unrealistic. Additional research is necessary to confirm these preliminary results. Still, dual fluoroscopy data may serve to validate existing software platforms or create new programs that better-represent hip arthrokinematics.

Project description:PURPOSE:To provide estimates of postoperative opioid use after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome and to identify risk factors for increased postoperative opioid use. METHODS:All patients aged at least 18 years who were undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome performed by 1 of 2 hip-preservation surgeons between November 2015 and August 2016 were eligible for inclusion in this study. Target minimum enrollment was set at 30 patients per surgeon based on an a priori sample size calculation. Enrolled patients completed the International Hip Outcome Tool, visual analog pain scale, Pain Catastrophizing Scale, abbreviated Patient Health Questionnaire, and questions regarding demographic characteristics and opioid and anti-inflammatory use. Opioid consumption was assessed through pill counting at 2- and 6-week postoperative appointments. Of 80 patients enrolled, 67 had complete 2- and 6-week opioid use data. Patient and operative factors were correlated with outcomes in multivariate models. RESULTS:Opioid use in the 2 weeks before surgery was significantly associated with higher postoperative opioid use at 2 weeks postoperatively (253.8 additional oral morphine equivalents [OMEs]; 95% confidence interval [CI], 171.2-336.5 additional OMEs; P < .0001; n = 73) and 6 weeks postoperatively (385.3 additional OMEs; 95% CI, 241.6-529.0 additional OMEs; P < .0001; n = 67). By 6 weeks postoperatively, 41 of 52 patients (79%) without opioid use in the 2 weeks before surgery used 30 or fewer 5-mg oxycodone pills compared with only 2 of 15 patients (13%) with preoperative use (odds ratio, 24.9; 95% CI, 4.2-148.5; P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS:Among patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome, any opioid use in the 2 weeks preceding surgery was the strongest predictor of opioid use after hip arthroscopy. The impact of preoperative opioid use far exceeded the impact of other baseline patient and operative factors. Assessment of preoperative opioid use could be an important factor in guiding postoperative opioid prescribing. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:Level II, prospective observational study.
