In modern orthopaedics, risk prediction scores can help discriminate between ideal and poor candidates for a specifi­c therapeutic intervention. We consider these tools useful during the process of shared medical decision-making1. To our knowledge, such a strategy has never been explored in the ­field of hip preservation surgery.

The aim of our study is to generate a clinical decision support tool to predict risk of failure after hip preservation surgery among patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).
