Summary

160 patients who received a total hip arthroplasty (THA) were included and randomized to receive specific rehabilitation sport (RS) or not (control) in addition to a conventional rehabilitation program. Upon completion of the rehabilitation phase 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after surgery sports medical measurements have been performed. Strength abilities of the hip muscles were tested with isokinetic dynamometry, postural control with a force measuring platform and endurance via lactate measurements.

Detailed description

In Germany, rehabilitation sport (RS) is a reimbursed postoperative measure in order to support socio-professional reintegration and self-help. 160 patients who received a primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) were included and randomized to receive specific RS or not (control) in addition to a conventional rehabilitation program. Upon completion of the rehabilitation phase 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after surgery sports medical measurements have been performed. Strength abilities of the hip muscles were tested with isokinetic dynamometry, postural control with a force measuring platform and endurance via lactate measurements. The goal of the study was to prospectively randomized evaluate the effect of RS on hip-related muscular strength, endurance and postural stability on patients who underwent THA.
