    Peoples' beliefs about their chronic hip pain and its care: a systematic review of qualitative studies. "I'm just getting old and breaking down"
    Haber, T ; Hinman, RS ; Dobson, F ; Bunzli, S ; Hilton, A ; Hall, M (LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-05)
    To enhance patient-centred care of people with hip pain, we need a comprehensive understanding of peoples' beliefs about their hip pain. This systematic review explored the beliefs and expectations of middle-aged and older adults about chronic hip pain and its care across different healthcare settings and contexts. This review was a synthesis of qualitative studies using a framework synthesis approach. We searched 5 databases: MEDLINE, CINAHL, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, EMBASE, and PsycINFO. Two reviewers independently screened the studies for eligibility. We included qualitative studies that included people with a mean age of older than 45 years and 80% or more of the participants had chronic hip pain, or if they reported the data about participants with chronic hip pain who were 45 years or older separately. We excluded studies of people with systemic conditions and studies not published in English. We included 28 studies involving 352 participants with chronic hip pain. We generated 5 themes: (1) biomedical causes (subtheme 1: scary pathoanatomical labels, subtheme 2: information needs); (2) negative impacts on physical, social, and mental health; (3) activity avoidance or modification and rest; (4) treatment failures (subtheme: information and support were helpful); (5) surgery is inevitable. Middle-aged and older adults labelled their hip joint damaged and attributed their hip pain to age, and wear and tear. People coped with their hip pain by avoiding or modifying activity. People were not educated about treatments or used treatments that failed to improve their hip pain. People believed that surgery for their hip was inevitable.

    How do middle-aged and older adults with chronic hip pain view their health problem and its care? A protocol for a systematic review and qualitative evidence synthesis
    Haber, T ; Hinman, RS ; Dobson, F ; Bunzli, S ; Hall, M (BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-11)
    INTRODUCTION: Chronic hip pain in middle-aged and older adults is common and disabling. Patient-centred care of chronic hip pain requires a comprehensive understanding of how people with chronic hip pain view their health problem and its care. This paper outlines a protocol to synthesise qualitative evidence of middle-aged and older adults' views, beliefs, expectations and preferences about their chronic hip pain and its care. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We will perform a qualitative evidence synthesis using a framework approach. We will conduct this study in accord with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Statement and the Enhancing Transparency in Reporting the synthesis of Qualitative research checklist. We will search MEDLINE, CINAHL, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, EMBASE and PsycINFO using a comprehensive search strategy. A priori selection criteria include qualitative studies involving samples with a mean age over 45 and where 80% or more have chronic hip pain. Two or more reviewers will independently screen studies for eligibility, assess methodological strengths and limitations using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme qualitative studies checklist, perform data extraction and synthesis and determine ratings of confidence in each review finding using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation-Confidence in the Evidence from Reviews of Qualitative research approach. Data extraction and synthesis will be guided by the Common-Sense Model of Self-Regulation. All authors will contribute to interpreting, refining and finalising review findings. This protocol is registered on PROSPERO and reported according to the PRISMA Statement for Protocols (PRISMA-P) checklist. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethics approval is not required for this systematic review as primary data will not be collected. The findings of the review will be disseminated through publication in an academic journal and scientific conferences. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: PROSPERO registration number: CRD42021246305.
