Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to compare two different treatment options on their effectiveness to reduce post-operative pain, narcotic (opioid pain medication) usage and recovery time in patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy surgery. The first treatment option is a Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum (TQL) block plus hip incision site (Pericapsular) Injection. The TQL block is an ultrasound guided injection between the quadratus lumborum and the psoas muscles in the back. The anesthesiologist will perform the TQL block The second treatment option is only a hip incision site (Pericapsular) Injection. In this group, the surgeon will inject local anesthetic into the incision or hip portal sites to decrease sensation.

Primary Outcome

This will be measured by using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores and compared between the 2 treatment groups after surgery. The distribution of pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores in post- surgical patients will describe their postoperative pain intensity as none, mild, moderate, or severe, the following cut points on the pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) have been recommended: no pain (0-4 mm), mild pain(5-44 mm), moderate pain (45-74 mm), and severe pain (75-100 mm).
