Declining Postoperative 90-Day Opioid Prescriptions From 2010 to 2021 Following Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To analyze postoperative opioid prescriptions after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) in a large, opioid-naive population and to evaluate factors associated with receiving more opioids.

Methods

Opioid-naive adult patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAIS were queried in the 2010 to 2022 PearlDiver Mariner 161 national administrative database. Exclusion criteria included patients with a history of chronic pain and patients who received opioid prescriptions more than 30 days before surgery. Patient variables were extracted: age, sex, and Elixhauser Comorbidity Index. Ninety-day postoperative opioid prescriptions (by total morphine milligram equivalents [MMEs]) were assessed with multivariate linear regression. Ninety-day postoperati
