Scientific titleA feasibility randomised controlled trial of a pain self-management group for patients undergoing total hip replacement
Study acronymSPIRAL
Study objectivesThis pilot randomised controlled trial will involve delivering a pain self-management course to patients undergoing total hip replacement (THR). The course will be delivered by Arthritis Care and will consist of two workshops while patients are on the waiting list for a THR and one workshop at 6-9 weeks post-operative. Eighty patients will be recruited into the study and randomised to the control or intervention arm and then followed-up by postal questionnaire for 6-months after surgery. The study will assess the feasibility of a full-scale randomised controlled trial in terms of recruitment rates, reasons for non-participation, attendance at the course, the suitability of outcome measures and assessment timings.
