ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) for osteoarthritis (OA) is a major health system cost. Education and exercise (Edu + Ex) programs may reduce the number of THAs needed, but supporting data are limited. This study aimed to estimate the treatment effect of THA versus Edu + Ex on pain, function, and quality of life outcomes 3 and 12 months after treatment initiation for hip OA.

METHODS:

Patients who had hip OA who underwent THA or an Edu + Ex program were included in this propensity-matched study. In 778 patients (Edu + Ex, n = 303; THA, n = 475), propensity scores were based on pretreatment characteristics, and patients were matched on a 11 ratio. Between-group treatment effects (pain, function, and quality of life) were estimated as the mean difference (MD) in change from pretreatment to 3-month and 12-month follow-up using linear mixed models.

RESULTS:

The matched sample consisted of 266 patients (Edu + Ex, n = 133; THA, n = 133) who were balanced on all pretreatment characteristics except opioid use. At 12-month follow-up, THA resulted in significantly greater improvements in pain (MD 35.4; 95% confidence interval [CI] 31.4 to 39.4), function (MD 30.5; 95% CI 26.3 to 34.7), and quality of life (MD 33.6; 95% CI 28.8 to 38.4). Between 17% and 30% of patients receiving Edu + Ex experienced a surgical threshold for clinically meaningful improvement in outcomes, compared to 84% and 90% of THA patients.

CONCLUSIONS:

A THA provides greater improvements in pain, function, and quality of life. A notable proportion of Edu + Ex patients had clinically meaningful improvements, suggesting Edu + Ex may result in THA deferral in some patients, but confirmatory trials are needed.
