In patients with hip OA, PRT is not superior to NEMEX for improving functional performance, hip pain, or hip-related QoL.
Study context
- Population
- Participants with clinically diagnosed hip osteoarthritis (OA), hospitals and physiotherapy clinics
- Participants
- 160 participants
- Comparison
- Progressive resistance training (PRT) vs neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX), 12 weeks, 2 supervised 60-minute group sessions weekly
- PRTn = 82
- NEMEXn = 78reference
- Primary endpoint
- Change in the 30-second chair stand test (30s-CST)
- Follow-up
- 12 weeks
