Abstract

Total hip arthroplasties (THAs) are usually performed in older patients. Despite a growing number of THAs in younger adults, it is unclear whether they have similar priorities in recovery compared with their older counterparts. The purpose of this systematic review was to explore younger patients' priorities when undergoing a THA. Multiple databases were searched in September 2021 prioritizing qualitative data. This review was reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Of 14,495 articles screened, nine remained for analysis. Four common themes were discovered: improving function and mobility; pain; relationships; and patient expectations and education. However, there was insufficient information to clarify whether these themes could be attributed directly to younger adults undergoing a THA. The absence of research on THA patients younger than 50 years results in the loss of the voices of these patients. Further research is essential to ensure their needs are identified, addressed, and met.
