SreerajSR
HipArthritis
 The classic clinical test for hip arthritis is internal rotation of the hip in
flexion.
 With hip arthritis internal rotation will be limited and painful.
 Differential diagnoses
 Radiographic examination includes an AP and lateral views (modified
frog-leg lateral or Lauenstein) of the hip.
 Hip dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)

SreerajSR
Problem List
 Hip joint pain or tenderness
 Hip stiffness, particularly early morning stiffness.
 Limited hip joint movement
 Weak hip muscles, especially during sit to stand, squatting and stair
climbing.
 Hip joint swelling or deformity

SreerajSR
Treatment
PHASE I - Pain Relief & Protection
 Anti-inflammatories and analgesics
 Regular application of ice packs
 A cane in the opposite hand helps to unload the hip significantly
 cane should reach the top of the patient's greater trochanter of the
hip while wearing shoes.

Treatment
PHASE II - Restoring Normal Hip ROM, Strength
 Restoring normal hip joint range of motion,
 Muscle length and resting tension
 Muscle strength and endurance,
 Proprioception
 Balance and gait (walking pattern).

SreerajSR
Treatment
PHASE III – Maintain Full Hip Function & Delaying Hip Surgery
 The final stage is aimed at returning the patient to their desired
activities.
 HIP STABILIZER Support
 Cane support
 Assess hip biomechanics and correcting any defects.
 Addressing any deficits in core strength and balance

Surgical Mx
 The mainstay of surgical treatment is total hip replacement
http://uconnmsi.uchc.edu/clinical_services/orthopaedic/totaljoint/total_hip.html

SreerajSR
Weight-bearing restrictions
Cemented
 as strong as it will ever be 15
minutes after insertion.
 allow immediate full weight-
bearing with a cane or walker.
Non-Cemented
 Stability is usually adequate by
6 weeks to 6 months
 toe-touch weight-bearing for
the first 6 weeks
 allow weight-bearing as
tolerated immediately after
surgery.

SreerajSR
PreoperativeSession
Generally includes an assessment of
 patient's strength (including upper extremity potential)
 ROM
 neurologic status
 vital Signs
 endurance, functional level, and safety awareness
 Any existing edema, contractures, and leg length discrepancies
In the evaluation of patient's home
 the status of stairways
 equipment needs
 safety adaptations (such as furniture and electrical cords)

SreerajSR
Pre-operative Instructions
GOALS:
 Educate patient regarding precautions with transfers and
movements,
 help patient become independent in exercises for postoperative
phases

SreerajSR
Postoperative exercises can be taught at this time.
These exercises may include the following:
 Ankle pumps
 Quadriceps sets
 Gluteal sets
 Active hip and knee flexion (heel slides)
 Isometric hip abduction
 Active hip abduction

SreerajSR
 The danger of post operative dislocation is largely a result of
compromised integrity of the hip's joint capsule caused by surgical
disruption.
 This information may assist in motivating the patient to adhere to
precautions and the strengthening program.

SreerajSR
Post-operative Precautions for PTs & pts
 Straight-Leg raises (SLR) and Side-leg-lifting can produce very large
loads on the hip and should be avoided.
 vigorous isometric contractions of the hip abductors should be
practiced with caution
 protect the hip from large rotational forces for 6 weeks or more
 use a cane in the contralateral hand until the limp stops.This helps
prevent the development of aTrendelenburg gait,

the bed; keep your operated leg
straight

and then move good leg beyond the crutches
 while standing, the crutches should always be kept in front of and
slightly out to the side to prevent from falling.
