Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: OutpatientExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in the outpatient group (same day discharge following THA) are discharged the same day following surgery. All patients are required to meet the discharge criteria to be sent home (i.e., capable of using crutches, relatively free of pain, free of nausea and vomiting, free of excess bleeding, alert and oriented, given take-home medications, and in the company of a caregiver).
Group II: InpatientActive Control1 Intervention
Patients in the inpatient group (following day discharge following THA) stay in the hospital overnight and then are discharged home the next day. All patients are required to meet the discharge criteria to be sent home (i.e., capable of using crutches, relatively free of pain, free of nausea and vomiting, free of excess bleeding, alert and oriented, given take-home medications, and in the company of a caregiver).
