Summary

The concept of mobilization with movement, also referred to as a Mulligan mobilization, has not been studied in patients with hip osteoarthritis, subsisting questions about the possible effects in this population. The aim of this randomized controlled study is to compare the immediate effects of Mulligan mobilization with movement technique of pain, range of motion and physical function in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip.

  • Osteoarthritis Hip
  • Joint Disease

  • Pathologic Processes

Interventions

OTHER

Real mobilization-with-movement (MWM)

For the MWM group, the investigator applied two techniques of mobilization with movement: one for flexion and one for medial rotation of the hip. With the hip in flexion, a stabilizing belt was placed on the medial side of the participant's thigh closest to the joint interline. The belt was placed around the pelvic region of the physical therapist, keeping a perpendicular direction to the participant's thigh. Maintaining a side slip, it was carried out a passive movement of 1) hip flexion (3x10) and 2) medial hip rotation (3x10) by the physiotherapist throughout painless amplitude.

OTHER

Sham mobilization-with-movement (MWM)

In the sham group, the investigators conducted a technical simulation. The positioning of the patient and the physical therapist was the same, however, no accessory mobilization was performed with the help of the belt and did not performed repeated movements of passive flexion or medial rotation.
