Recovery of function following hip resurfacing arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial comparing an accelerated versus standard physiotherapy rehabilitation programme

This report has been verified by one or more authors of the original publication.

80 male participants underwent hip resurfacing and were randomized into different postoperative procedure groups to determine the ideal rehabilitation protocol following surgery. Compared to a standard physiotherapy program, patients who underwent the dynamic tailored treatment specified for hip resurfacing rehabilitation experienced greater improvements in Oxford Hip, Hip disability, and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, UCLA Activity Score, the EuroQol, and ROM extension and flexion. Complications were similar between groups.
