What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Determine the immediate biomechanical effect in patients that receive a hip injection.

    The biomechanical assessment of gait will consist of walking on a gait mat. The mat is a specialized pressure sensor system. Prior to data collection, each participant will walk across the mat three times for acclimation. The first assessment will include a walk at a self-selected, comfortable pace across the mat, repeated three times. The second assessment will include walking as quickly as possible, also repeated three times.

    Measured: The short-term biomechanical effects of the hip will be evaluated within 1 hour of the patient receiving the injection.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Oswestry Hip Pain Disability Questionnaire

    Oswestry Hip Pain Disability Questionnaire. This a standard, well validated questionnaire to assess disability caused by hip pain. The questionnaire is a 10-item scale, ranging from 0 to 100%, to obtain a score for functional disability caused by hip pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Within 1 hour of hip injection, 2 weeks post-injection

  2. Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12)

    The SF-12 is a global health assessment questionnaire ranging from 0 to 100%, to score self-experienced health related to quality of life. Items are grouped into two domains from which an overall summary score, a physical component score and a mental component score can be derived. A high score on each of the scales reflects a high level of self-experienced health

    Measured: Baseline, Within 1 hour of injection, 2 weeks post-injection

  3. 10 centimeter Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Hip pain is a symptom that affects the overall Quality Of Life. Hip pain intensity will be self-assessed by a 10 cm visual analogue scale with terminal descriptors (anchors of 0 cm = no pain; 10 cm = worst possible pain). The VAS is an accepted outcome measure for chronic pain conditions.

    Measured: Baseline, Within 1 hour of injection, 2 weeks post-injection

  4. Pain Provocative Maneuvers

    All patients currently undergoing hip injections receive a basic physical exam including patient specific provocative maneuvers both before and after the injection. The loss of pain after injection of a local anesthetic is part of the routine treatment algorithm and the results will be correlated with other outcome measures

    Measured: Baseline, Within 1 hour of injection, 2 weeks pos-injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hip Pain, run by University of Florida at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determine the immediate biomechanical effect in patients that receive a hip injection. (time frame: The short-term biomechanical effects of the hip will be evaluated within 1 hour of the patient receiving the injection.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Apr 2013.
