Patient Satisfaction With Virtual Post Operative Visits: Hip Arthroscopy

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Femoroacetabular Impingement
• Interventions: Other: virtual doctor visit; Other: Standard care doctor's visit

• Registration Number: NCT04302077
• Lead Sponsor: NYU Langone Health

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.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Telemedicine Post Op	virtual doctor visit	Patients with an even-ending medical record number (0,2,4,6,8) will be randomized to virtual visit/telemedicine. This will be done by using Epic and MyChart-integrated telemedicine functionality for video visits with the Principal Investigator's patients. This is considered standard of care.
In-Office Post Op	Standard care doctor's visit	Patients with an odd-ending medical record number (1,3,5,7,9) will be randomized to the office visit.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in patient satisfaction	3 month follow up visit	Participant satisfaction will be measured by a electronic survey . At the conclusion of the in-person or virtual visit, participants will be provided instructions how to access the survey questions through the QR code if in-person and through a secure link if at home via telemedicine through EPIC.
