Femoroacetabular Impingement
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a prospective, randomized study designed to evaluate the effects of different initial postoperative follow-up modalities. Given the nature of the study, it is not possible for either the surgeons or the subjects to be blinded. Patients will be assigned to either group based on the last digit of their medical record number (MRN). Patients with an even-ending medical record number will be randomized to virtual visit/telemedicine, while patients with an odd-ending medical record number will be randomized to the office visit.
Detailed description
This study aims to evaluate the differences between two forms of postoperative follow-up with respect to patient satisfaction. The primary outcome will be patient satisfaction with their surgeon and with their overall experience. Following their second postoperative visit, the subjects will complete one electronic survey. The survey is designed to assess subject's overall satisfaction and satisfaction with their surgery. This survey is standardized and will be used by both groups.
