ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To analyze the clinical, quality of life, and healthcare quality outcomes obtained in a series of patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA), who were empowered and monitored using the AVIP application. These results will be compared with a control group followed through a standard protocol. MATERIAL AND

METHOD:

Randomized clinical trial with parallel groups involving patients with an indication for THA. Clinical variables were measured and compared using the WOMAC and mHHS, pain assessed by the VAS, quality of life with the SF-12 test. Walking capabilities were analyzed using the Functional Gait Assessment Scale, along with satisfaction levels assessed through the SUCE questionnaire, and perceived anxiety levels related to the process.

RESULTS:

A total of 68 patients were evaluated, with 31 patients in the AVIP group and 33 in the Control group completing the follow-up. Both groups demonstrated improvement in clinical outcomes based on the WOMAC and mHHS hip tests, a reduction in perceived pain, and an enhancement in quality of life according to the SF-12 test. Patients in the AVIP study group exhibited non-inferiority in clinical outcomes and satisfaction compared to the control group, as well as lower anxiety levels and improved walking capabilities after the first month of follow-up. Notably, 82.25% of the follow-up visits for this group were conducted remotely.

CONCLUSION:

The implementation of a mHealth application like AVIP can be safely offered to selected patients undergoing hip arthroplasty, enabling effective monitoring and providing continuous information and training.
