Comparison of Ultrasound-guided Intraarticular Hip Injections With and Without Prior Local Anesthesia

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hip Pain
Interventions
Procedure: Ultrasound guided injection
Registration Number
NCT05209399
Lead Sponsor
University of Rochester
Brief Summary

In this single-center randomized controlled trial, subjects undergoing a first-time ultrasound-guided unilateral intraarticular hip injection will be randomized into one of two groups: hip injection with prior local anesthesia (With LA) or hip injection without prior local anesthesia (Without LA). Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores (0-100) will be collected after the local anesthesia injection (With LA group) and intraarticular hip injection (both groups). The primary outcome measure for comparison between the two groups will be VAS score for the intraarticular hip injection.
