Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Warmed irrigation fluid does not decrease perioperative hypothermia during arthroscopic shoulder surgery.
To compare the clinical efficacy of warmed irrigation fluid and room-temperature fluid in decreasing perioperative hypothermia during arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery. ⋯ Level I, randomized controlled trial.
-
To determine whether patients with higher levels of preoperative psychological distress more frequently use a postoperative fascia iliaca nerve block for pain control after hip arthroscopy, and to determine whether a fascia iliaca nerve block is an effective adjunct to multimodal oral and intravenous analgesia after hip arthroscopy. ⋯ Level IV, case series.

Comparative Study Clinical Trial
Ultrasound-guided hip injections: a comparative study with fluoroscopy-guided injections.
The purpose was to assess ultrasound-guided injections through patient satisfaction in a comparative internally controlled study of fluoroscopic versus ultrasound technique and to quantitate the reliability of the ultrasound method. In addition, the reliability of the ultrasound method was quantitated. ⋯ Level II, prospective comparative study.

Controlled Clinical Trial Observational Study
Effect of warmed irrigation solution on core body temperature during hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement.
To determine the effect of warming arthroscopic irrigation solution on core body temperature during hip arthroscopic surgery in patients with femoroacetabular impingement. ⋯ Level II, analytical, prospective, comparative study in a cohort of consecutive patients.

Comparative Study
Bilateral hip arthroscopy under the same anesthetic for patients with symptomatic bilateral femoroacetabular impingement: 1-year outcomes.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether, in patients with bilateral symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement, bilateral surgery under 1 anesthetic is safe and efficacious and allows a rapid return of function compared with staged procedures. ⋯ Level III, retrospective comparative study.
