No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A prospective multicentre randomised clinical trial of 250 selected patients with THA, who will be randomly assigned to intervention (IG) or control group (CG). Both will have standard physiotherapy during hospitalisation, IG will additionally learn strength and sensory-motor training exercises. Follow up will be performed with physical tests, maximal voluntary isometric contractions and outcome assessment questionnaires at baseline and 1, 3 and 12 months after surgery.

Conditions

  • Arthroplasty
  • Replacement
  • Hip
  • Strength Training

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Strength and Sensory-Motor Training

Early postoperative strength and sensory-motor training after total hip arthroplasty. Training consists of: hip muscles strengthening (focusing on abductors); hip and pelvic stabilization exercises; ankle and knee muscles strengthening (better dissipation of impact forces and femoral inner rotation control); trunk muscles strengthening (stabilization of pelvis and lumbar spine and reduction of local loading).

PROCEDURE

Current Standard Physiotherapy

Mobilisation using a walking aid (usually two crutches, rarely a walker), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prevention exercises, lower limb range of motion exercises and isometric strengthening program
