Summary

A total of 63 participants will be recruited through 3 local surgeons in Durham, North Carolina after distinctive differential diagnostic methods, all with extensive expertise in intra-articular hip pathology and arthroscopy. The surgeons will offer the opportunity to participate in the trial by providing information to the recipient. Potential participants that do not contact project team members will be contacted by phone if they do not respond to the initial invitation. Potential participants will be initially screened by telephone interview, followed by a clinical examination to confirm study eligibility. The blinded researchers will obtain informed consent and will perform outcome assessments

Purpose of the Study: 1) measure the mediating effect of baseline patient expectations on fulfillment of expectations (for both conservative care and surgery, measured at 6 weeks and at 1 year respectively) in a cohort of patients with a diagnosis of FAI Syndrome who receive six weeks of conservative physical therapy intervention and 2) measure the effect of baseline expectations on patient reported outcomes (e.g., HAGOS, pain, global rating of change) at six weeks.

Conditions

  • Femoroacetabular Impingement

Interventions

OTHER

Exercise

A prescription of progressive rehabilitation exercises designed to strengthen weakened muscle groups and stretch joint movements that demonstrate range of motion limitations will be provided as a home program. Treatment is based on clinical presentation and identification of impairments by the treating clinician. Participants will be seen for 3 visits over 6 weeks and a final visit 1 year post-surgery for those electing to undergo surgery. The interventions will consist of progressive exercise (PE) in two phases with general instruction guidelines. The assigned program will be tailored per each participant's clinical presentation and progressed based on response to exercise load. The researcher will instruct, review and supervise each program initially and, at follow-up visits; as well as monitor progress, re-enforce treatment strategies and modify the respective program accordingly. Each participant will receive a home program manual as well as a program log.

OTHER

Manual Therapy

Hip joint and spine manual therapy techniques applied toward the impairments of the subject.
