Rehabilitation After Hip Arthroscopy

Rehabilitation after Arthroscopic Repair of Intra-Articular Disorders of the Hip in a Professional Football Athlete

“…[15][16][17]24 With recent developments in arthroscopic repair, demands to incorporate appropriate rehabilitation principles into practice have become extremely important. Although appropriate evidence supporting rehabilitation for this pathology has been shown adequate attention, 18,19,24,[29][30][31][32] few articles address the specifics of a systematic approach to the rehabilitation of a high-level athlete after an arthroscopic intra-articular repair of the hip. [30][31][32] With a successful rehabilitation program, a reported 93% of professional athletes returned to an elite level of competition after FAI decompression with associated labral and/or chondral pathology.…”

Joint Loading in the Lower Extremities during Elliptical Exercise

“…Health clubs and individuals have purchased these machines to provide an option of fitness training that can be incorporated into an exercise regimen (3). Recently, EE has also been included for fitness training in the rehabilitation programs of patients who have undergone hip arthroscopy (24), ACL revision surgery (25), or patellar tendonectomy (21), or who suffer from patellofemoral pain syndrome (12) or diabetes (10). Despite the benefit in cardiorespiratory fitness, the rapid growth in the number of ET and their wide clinical applications, little is known regarding the loading applied to the lower-limb joints during EE.…”

Aktive Rehabilitation nach arthroskopischer FAI-Operation

“…In den letzten Jahren veröffentlichte Studien zeigen positive Ergebnisse durch die arthroskopische Behandlung eines femoroazetabulären Impingements [2,5,8,10]. Für die postoperative, physiotherapeutische Behandlung nach arthroskopischen Eingriffen am Hüftgelenk gibt es aktuell nur wenige veröffentlichte, evidenzbasierte Studien [11,12,13]. Da die Operationstechnik neu ist und sich stetig weiterentwickelt, stellt sie immer wieder neue Herausforderungen an die Operateure und Physiotherapeuten.…”
