Research Detail
Title of Research Study
The Dislocation Care Pathway Study
Overview Summary of Project
This project is in partial fulfilment of a PhD, which is developing a care pathway for dislocation after hip replacement. The first part of the project was a national survey that mapped the existing care provisions for patients who experience dislocation after hip replacement to understand the current care practice and identify possible contexts for intervention development. The second part of the project is a qualitative interview exploring the care experiences for dislocation after hip replacement. To inform the development of the care pathway, we want to understand the experience of clinicians, including Paramedics and Ambulance staff, in delivering care for dislocation after hip replacement. The third and last part of the project would be to co-design (with patients and clinicians) the care pathway for dislocation after hip replacement.
Questions
