What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This is protocol is intended to demonstrate the principal investigator's improvements and modifications of a hip capsule side fixed slotted cannula for continued access to the hip joint and a bone graft delivery tool set for grafting subchrondral cysts during hip arthroscopy procedure.

Do I need to stop my current medications for the trial?

The trial information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.

How is the treatment 'Modified Arthroscopy Tools for Hip Surgery' different from other treatments?

This treatment is unique because it uses a modified bone graft delivery tool set and a slotted cannula, which allows for the introduction of curved instruments into the hip joint with less risk of damage to the cartilage. The slotted cannula can be removed for better instrument mobility, making the procedure more efficient and potentially safer compared to traditional methods that use larger or flexible cannulas.12345

What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment Modified bone graft delivery tool set, Modified hip capsule side fixed slotted cannula for hip surgery?

The use of slotted cannulas in hip arthroscopy allows for safer introduction of curved instruments into the hip joint, reducing the risk of damage to the joint. Additionally, modified portals for hip arthroscopy can minimize damage to surrounding tissues and improve access to the hip joint, which may enhance the effectiveness of surgical procedures.12467
