Brief Summary

"It is known that pelvic parameters affect physical hip functions in hip pathologies. Depending on the type and severity of hip pathologies, posture, muscle strength, balance, and pain parameters may change, thereby impacting an individual's quality of life. This study aimed to examine the postural parameters, muscle strength, balance, quality of life, pain intensity, and pain localization of individuals with different hip pathologies, including hip osteoarthritis, hip impingement syndrome, hip labrum tear, hip dysplasia, and hip avascular necrosis."

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Postural Parameter

  The postures of the participants will be evaluated using the 4-DIERS. In this method, white light lines (raster lines) are projected onto the participants' backs, and the curvature of these lines is used to create a 3D shape of the back. The patterns formed by these curved lines are detected by the camera. With the help of the software, the detected convex and concave regions allow for the immediate determination of anatomical landmarks and fixed points. A mathematical algorithm is used to reconstruct a three-dimensional model of the spine.

  Up to 4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• Pain Threshold

• Hip and Hip Related Pain
