The aim of this study is to identify the factors associated with successful rehabilitation following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and to highlight any persistent functional deficits at different key stages of rehabilitation. This is a controlled multi-observational study. The pathological hip of patients will be compared to their second healthy hip as well as to a healthy control group.
Assessments of mobility, strength, functional tests, and questionnaire submissions will take place before the intervention and 3 and 6 months after the intervention.
Subjects with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, with corresponding clinical symptoms and signs, as well as validation by imaging
Subjects who have already consulted a surgeon specializing in hip arthroscopic surgery and whose surgery is planned to treat femoroacetabular impingement syndrome
Subjects aged between 18 and 40
History of rheumatic disease, dysplasia or pediatric disease affecting the hip (Legg-Calvé; superior femoral epiphysiolysis)
Subject who has already undergone surgery on the hip joint
Subjects with a history of injury to the muscles involved in the assessments within the last year
Adults aged 18-40 years will be recruited. The patient group will include individuals diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome who are scheduled to undergo hip arthroscopy by specialized surgeons. A healthy control group without a history of hip pathology will be recruited from the local community matched as closely as possible to the patient group for demographic parameters.
Cohort
Prospective
Not listed
Muscle strength in Nm
Muscular strength is measured using a fixed dynamometer
Hip mobility in degree
Hip mobility is measured using an electronic goniometer
Functional results on the Y Balance Test
The functional results of the Y balance test will be measured using the composite score.
Functional results in the single-leg squat test
The functional results of the single-leg squat test will be measured using the SIngle-leg squat Movement Performance scaLe for Individuals with FemoroAcetabular Impingement syndrome (SIMPLAI-FAI). The score on this scale ranges from 0 to 8. A higher score indicates a better functional outcome.
