Mobility, Strength, and Functional Outcomes Before Surgery, at 3 Months, and at 6 Months After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome, Healthy Participants

In brief

The aim of this study is to identify the factors associated with successful rehabilitation following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and to highlight any persistent functional deficits at different key stages of rehabilitation. This is a controlled multi-observational study. The pathological hip of patients will be compared to their second healthy hip as well as to a healthy control group. Assessments of mobility, strength, functional tests, and questionnaire submissions will take place before the intervention and 3 and 6 months after the intervention.
