Summary

This trial tests whether online educational modules or live webinars, completed before hip replacement surgery, can reduce anxiety and improve outcomes like pain, function, and quality of life. It involves adults aged 50 and older with advanced hip osteoarthritis who are scheduled for surgery. The goal is to see if these eHealth approaches are feasible and beneficial, potentially leading to a larger study.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Online prehabilitation education modules and online educational webinars
What this could lead to
If effective, online prehab could become a standard, accessible way to reduce anxiety and improve recovery for people awaiting hip replacement surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study, not a large trial, so results may not be conclusive. Online education may not suit everyone, and benefits could vary.
