The Influence of Athlete-Specific Factors on Time to Return to Sport Clearance Following Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome in Division I Collegiate Athletes

Listen to this summary

This study investigates how athlete-specific factors, such as sport and sex, influence the time to return to sport (RTS) clearance following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome in Division I collegiate athletes. The findings reveal that athletes in track and wrestling return to sport more quickly than those in football, while no significant differences in RTS clearance times were observed between male and female athletes or across various clinical and surgical factors.
