Clinical Trial Summary

This study is looking at the impact of giving patients precautions, or restrictions for movement, when undergoing a total hip replacement. Have of the participants will receive precautions, while the other half will not receive any precautions.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients undergoing hip replacements are often told by health care providers to avoid specific positions and activities to decrease the risk of their hip dislocating following their surgery. This, however, results in patients becoming more fearful of moving and leads to limitations in their function and decreased quality of life. Previous research has shown that hip dislocations following surgery are most commonly attributed to poor implant position rather than the actions of the patients. Teaching precautions takes up healthcare resources and may use finances that are not necessarily required. This study aims to compare groups with half receiving precautions and half not receiving precautions, to assess the impact of precautions on the patients' quality of life. ;
