Brief Summary
Due to the importance of the functions of the gluteus medium, mainly during gait, it becomes essential to strengthening early in the musculature. The association of muscle strengthening with the Functional Electric Stimulation (FES) comes to accelerate stabilization of hip, leading to functional rehabilitation early and improves the quality of life through rehabilitation in social life and activities of daily life. Thus, it becomes a relevant study to assess objectively the implications of FES in muscle strengthening of gluteus medium associated with the Physiotherapy Protocol Total Hip Arthroplasty (PPTHA), through the assessment of motor performance in patients undergoing surgery for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA), aiming to better rehabilitation strategies for this population. The objective of the research is to assess the effects of functional rehabilitation through PPTHA associated with FES in the gluteus medium compared only with the PPTHA, in patients undergoing surgery for THA. The principal hypothesis is that there is difference between the functional rehabilitation of the patients undergoing PPTHA associated with the FES of gluteus medium, after THA and the patients submitted only to PPTHA.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Anamnesis
Composed of the identification data, history of current and history of Pathology progression of pathologies.
The assessment is held a day before the surgery and in the fourth or fifth day in hospital discharge. The time between assessment and reassessment is up to five days.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Goniometry
The assessment is held a day before the surgery and in the fourth or fifth day in hospital discharge. The time between assessment and reassessment is up to five days
Evaluation of muscle strength of gluteus medius
The assessment is held a day before the surgery and in the fourth or fifth day in hospital discharge. The time between assessment and reassessment is up to five days
Functional evaluation of the hip
The assessment is held a day before the surgery and in the fourth or fifth day in hospital discharge. The time between assessment and reassessment is up to five days
Study Arms (2)
PPTHA
ACTIVE COMPARATORControl Group performs the PPTHA.
FES and PPTHA
EXPERIMENTALThe Intervention Group performs the PPTHA associated with FES.
Interventions
The control group will receive Protocol Physiotherapeutic Total Hip Arthroplasty (PPTHA), consisting of guidelines on the care and post THA. The PPTHA, is held once a day, for 60 minutes, accompanied by a physiotherapist and has the following composition: 1 day) oral guidance and exercise to strengthen the gluteal muscles and muscles of the thigh, with recommendation for 3 repetitions of 12 movements, for each financial year. Patients are encouraged to sit outside the bed, after the exercises; Day 2) patients perform exercises the first day and begin the March training, with the aid of a Walker or crutches Canadians for the room; Day 3) patients perform exercises and are encouraged to walk in the hallway of the hospital wing. Day 4) reassessment and discharge.
The PPTHA associated with FES. The stimulation protocol of FES is performed with the patient positioned in supine position in bed. After cleaning the skin, two electrodes are positioned in the posterolateral region of the thigh in motor point of the medium gluteus muscle. The total time for application of the apparatus 30 min per day totaling more 1 min per day as suggested in specialized references. The intensity is adjusted according to the tolerance of the patient. The apparatus used is wavelength Ibramed Neurodyn Compact.
