About this trial
The fast track group vs. control group will be compared with regard to hospitalization time and the non-inferiority of the fast track group vs. control group with regard to HOOS will be assessed.
The questionnaires will only be collected in the study: Eq-5d-5l, HOOS, self-efficacy, enjoyment of movement, fear of movement, pain catastrophizing.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Hospital length of stay (days)
The total number of days a participant remains admitted in the hospital from the day of surgery until discharge. While the expected length of stay is approximately 4 days, some participants may stay longer depending on clinical needs.
Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)
The Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) is a validated, patient-reported instrument for assessing hip-related pain, function, and quality of life. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better outcomes (less pain, better function, improved quality of life).
Secondary outcomes
Timed Up and Go (TUG) Test
The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is a functional mobility test measuring the time (in seconds) required for a participant to rise from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn, walk back, and sit down again. Shorter times indicate better functional mobility.
EQ-5D-5L (EuroQol 5 Dimensions, 5 Levels)
The EQ-5D-5L (EuroQol 5 Dimensions, 5 Levels) measures health-related quality of life across five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. It also includes a visual analogue scale (VAS) for overall health. Index values are calculated using country-specific preference weights and typically range from 1 (full health) to 0 (equivalent to death), with negative values representing health states considered worse than death (e.g., -0.205 to 1.000 in Germany).
Range of Motion (ROM) - Neutral Zero Method (degrees)
Joint range of motion (ROM) assessed using the neutral zero method, measuring the maximal angle achieved at the hip joint. Higher values indicate greater mobility.
Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (ESES)
The Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (ESES) assesses an individual's confidence in their ability to engage in and maintain regular exercise, even under challenging circumstances, such as a busy work schedule, fatigue, being on vacation, or feeling stressed. Scores range from 6 to 60, with higher scores indicating greater self-efficacy for exercise.
