NCT01214954

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether supervised progressive resistance training is effective in the early phase after Total Hip Replacement. The investigators hypothesise that 10 weeks of supervised, progressive resistance training immediately after discharge will lead to increased functional performance, muscle strength and muscle power compared to standard rehabilitation consisting of home-based exercise.

Study Arms (2)

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Standard rehabilitation

Other: Control group

Resistance training

EXPERIMENTAL

10 weeks of supervised progressive resistance training initiated within the first week after total hip replacement.

Other: Supervised progressive resistance training

Interventions

Resistance training 2 times/week initiated within the first week after total hip replacement. The training is supervised by physiotherapists and individually progressed.

Resistance training

Standard rehabilitation consisting of home-based exercises with 2 postoperative instructions by a physiotherapist.
