Article Synopsis
- - The study compares the outcomes of patients undergoing bilateral total hip arthroplasty (bTHA) either simultaneously (both hips at once) or staged (one hip at a time) focusing on patient-reported outcomes, complication rates, and discharge statuses.
- - Results showed that staged bTHA patients reported better outcomes at 6 weeks post-surgery compared to simultaneous bTHA patients, but the differences were not clinically significant.
- - Simultaneous bTHA had a higher risk of periprosthetic fractures and a greater likelihood of patients needing discharge to a rehabilitation facility, prompting further research on which patients might benefit from this approach.
