This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Successful physical therapy (PT) following total hip arthroplasty (THA) greatly determines the ultimate success of the surgery itself. Unfortunately, the frequent and intensive PT often results in severe pain. Pain limits the quality and quantity of PT patients can tolerate, and the ultimate functional outcome of the surgery. Effective analgesia may be provided with epidural infusion or intravenous opioids. However, both require hospitalization. Furthermore, epidurals are contraindicated with new anticoagulants often given in the perioperative period (e.g. low molecular weight heparin). Alternatively, local anesthetic infused via a perineural lumbar plexus catheter provides potent analgesia following THA. These ¿psoas compartment¿ catheters may be used with new anticoagulants and do not require patients to remain hospitalized. Combining these catheters with portable infusion pumps, outpatients may experience the same level of analgesia previously afforded only to those remaining hospitalized. We will use these techniques to investigate two major questions involving THA. First, we will conduct a prospective cohort pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of shortening THA hospital admission. Second, we will conduct a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effects of perineural infusion on PT and the rehabilitation period. Our secondary outcome measures will include postoperative pain, oral opioid requirements, sleep disturbances, patient satisfaction, resource utilization, and health-care costs.

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。全髋关节置换术（THA）后物理治疗（PT）的成功与否在很大程度上决定了手术本身的最终成功。不幸的是，频繁和密集的PT经常导致严重的疼痛。疼痛限制了PT患者可承受的质量和数量，以及手术的最终功能结果。有效的镇痛可以通过硬膜外输注或静脉注射阿片类药物来提供。然而，这两种情况都需要住院治疗。此外，硬膜外抗凝药物通常在围手术期使用（如低分子肝素）。另外，通过神经周围腰丛导管注入局部麻醉剂可在THA后提供有效的镇痛。这些“腰肌间室”导管可以与新的抗凝剂一起使用，并且不需要患者继续住院。将这些导管与便携式输液泵结合使用，门诊患者可能会体验到以前仅提供给住院患者的相同水平的镇痛。我们将使用这些技术来研究涉及THA的两个主要问题。首先，我们将进行一项前瞻性队列试验研究，以评估缩短THA住院时间的可行性。其次，我们将进行随机、双盲、安慰剂对照试验，评估神经周围输注对PT和康复期的影响。我们的次要结局指标包括术后疼痛、口服阿片类药物需求、睡眠障碍、患者满意度、资源利用和医疗保健成本。
