There is no agreement on how to classify, define or diagnose hip-related pain—a common cause of hip and groin pain in young middle-aged active adults. This complicates the work clinicians researchers. The International Hip-related Pain Research Network consensus group met November 2018 Zurich aiming make recommendations disease adults with as main symptom. Prior meeting we performed a scoping review electronic databases June determine definition, epidemiology diagnosis conditions presenting...
(i) Investigate if lower-limb running biomechanics differ between women and men with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, (ii) explore whether sex-specific relationships symptom severity sport-related concerns exist. Cross-sectional. Gait laboratory. Twenty 22 enrolled in a clinical trial of physiotherapist-led treatments for syndrome. Kinematics kinetics hip, knee, ankle joints during the stance phase (calculated from three-dimensional data) were compared using statistical parametric...
The 1st International Hip-related Pain Research Network meeting discussed four prioritised themes concerning hip-related pain in young to middle-aged adults: (1) diagnosis and classification of pain; (2) patient-reported outcome measures for (3) measurement physical capacity (4) physiotherapist-led treatment pain. Thirty-eight expert researchers clinicians working the field attended meeting. This manuscript relates theme treatments A systematic review on efficacy interventions (published...
Anterior cruciate ligament injury and reconstruction (ACLR) is often associated with pain, functional loss, poor quality of life accelerated knee osteoarthritis development. The effectiveness interventions to enhance outcomes for those at high risk early-onset unknown. This study will investigate if SUpervised exercise-therapy Patient Education Rehabilitation (SUPER) superior a minimal intervention control improving function in young adults ongoing symptoms following ACLR.
Hip-related pain can significantly impact quality of life, function, work capacity, physical activity and family life. Standardised measurement methods capacity relevance to young middle-aged active adults with hip-related are currently not established. The aim this consensus paper was provide recommendations for clinical practice research on standardised in pain. Four areas importance were identified: (1) measures (range motion, muscle strength, functional impairments), (2) laboratory-based...
Abstract Objective To define the reporting of Scoring Hip Osteoarthritis with MRI (SHOMRI) feature prevalence and severity, to develop criteria monitor change in longitudinal investigations. Methods Twenty-five participants (50 hips) femoroacetabular impingement hip osteoarthritis cohort study underwent baseline 2-year follow-up 3 T MRIs. Eight OA features were assessed using SHOMRI. All MRIs read paired knowledge timepoint by two blinded musculoskeletal radiologists. We provide definitions...
Objectives The study aims to (1) report the process of recruiting young adults into a secondary knee osteoarthritis prevention randomised controlled trial (RCT) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR); (2) determine number individuals needed be screened include one participant (NNS) and (3) baseline characteristics participants. Methods SUpervised exercise-therapy Patient Education Rehabilitation (SUPER)-Knee RCT compares SUPER minimal intervention for (aged 18–40 years) with...
Restricted hip range of motion (ROM) is a common finding in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. However, the association between ROM and symptom severity these individuals unclear. Explore associations flexion rotation FAI syndrome determine if measures can discriminate those worse symptoms. Data from 150 participants were analysed. A digital inclinometer was used to measure flexion, internal rotation, external ROM. Symptom quantified using symptoms subscale...
Objective To compare the size and prevalence of bony hip morphology in football players with without and/or groin pain. Design Case-control. Methods We recruited 184 soccer Australian self-reported pain greater than 6 months duration a positive flexion, adduction, internal rotation (FADIR) test (290 hips, 21% women), 55 no negative FADIR (110 26% women) as control group. Bony was identified by alpha angle lateral center-edge (LCEA) on anteroposterior pelvis Dunn 45° radiographs. The LCEA...
Football players are at risk of developing hip osteoarthritis (OA). Cam morphology (present in almost two every three football players) may explain this heightened risk, but there is limited research on its role OA development younger athletes. Knowledge relationship will advance our understanding the aetiology players. We aimed to study between cam size and MRI-defined cartilage defects labral tears, if differs by symptomatic state young adult players.For case-control study, 182 (288 hips)...
Background: The International Hip Outcome Tool–33 (iHOT-33) was developed to evaluate patients seeking surgery for hip and/or groin (hip/groin) pain and may not be appropriate those nonsurgical treatment. Purpose: To the psychometric properties of iHOT-33 total (iHOT-Total) score all subscale scores in adults with hip/groin who were surgery. Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level evidence, 3. Methods: Patients recruited from 2 ongoing studies Australia. Semistructured one-on-one...
Introduction This double-blind, randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to estimate the effect of a physiotherapist-led intervention with targeted strengthening compared standardised stretching, on hip-related quality life (QOL) or perceived improvement at 6 months in people femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. We hypothesise that months, treatment will be associated greater improvements QOL patient-perceived global when stretching treatment. Methods and analysis recruit 164...
Cam morphology size and location might affect the severity of reported burden in people with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome. We investigated relationship between cam (i.e., alpha angle) self-reported hip/groin scores for International Hip Outcome Tool-33 (iHOT-33) Copenhagen Groin Score (HAGOS)), examined separately anteroposterior pelvis (AP) Dunn 45° radiographs football players FAI In total, 118 (12 women) subelite (soccer or Australian football) syndrome (alpha angle ≥60°)...
