Abstract

The recreational and medical use of cannabis is being legalized worldwide. Its use has been linked to an increased risk of developing opioid use disorders. As opioids continue to be prescribed after total hip arthroplasty (THA), the influence that preoperative cannabis use may have on postoperative opioid consumption remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between preoperative cannabis use and opioid utilization following primary THA.
