Evaluating outcomes of hip preservation surgeries

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study assesses the outcomes of hip preservation surgeries, specifically focusing on open and arthroscopic treatments for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). It involves the collection of data from approximately 10,000 patients at Yale-New Haven Hospital, both prospectively and retrospectively. The primary goal is to determine the effectiveness of hip arthroscopy in improving post-operative outcomes compared to pre-operative measures. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate patient satisfaction and the success of recent advancements in arthroscopic procedures through longitudinal follow-up.
