Development and implementation of a roadmap for improving quality of care in prearthritic hip disease: A journey over 20 years

John C Clohisy et al. J Orthop Res. 2024 Nov.

Abstract

The understanding and treatment of prearthritic hip disease has evolved remarkably over the past 20 years. The principal investigator and the multicenter Academic Network of Conservational Hip Outcomes Research (ANCHOR) group have had a key role in improving the quality of care for these patients suffering from the three most common prearthritic conditions: femoroacetabular impingement, developmental dysplasia of the hip, and residual Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease. We aim to demonstrate that based on the six quality of care dimensions as defined by Donabedian, our 20-year academic journey has markedly improved the quality of care for young patients with prearthritic hip disease.

Keywords: developmental dysplasia of the hip; femoroacetabular impingment; hip; osteoarthritis.
