NCT03949127 | Unknown

• 1 other identifier: 20190091
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 95
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine whether using an exercise regime on people with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) can help reduce pain and improve function. Also, it examines whether the exercise regime will help prevent the worsening of hip cartilage deterioration.

Conditions

Femoracetabular Impingement

Keywords

non-surgical treatment; exercise

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• iHOT-33

  International Hip Outcome Tool-33, disease-specific function. Each answer will be measured on a scale of 100mm and the mean of the 33 questions will be taken as a final score. A higher score indicates a better quality of life.

  Change in Baseline before exercise program and 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• EQ-5D-5L

  Change in Baseline before exercise program and 6 months afterward

• Number of participants that receive hip surgery

  Change in Baseline before exercise program and 1 year afterwards

• Patient-reported hip pain

  Change in Baseline before exercise program and 6 months

Study Arms (2)

Exercise Group

EXPERIMENTAL

The group who will exercise to manage pain.

Other: Exercise Group

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

The group who will not take part in any exercises and only have to do assessments.

Interventions

Exercise Group OTHER

The group who will meet a physiotherapist who will show them strengthening and stretching muscles associated with pelvic tilt.

Exercise Group

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 16 Years - 50 Years
• Sex: all
