Study of Movement and Return to Sport After Hip Arthroscopy in Athletes Aged 18 to 50

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to describe dynamic movement characteristics in active patients who have undergone hip arthroscopy surgery between 3 and 6 months prior. The study focuses on movements such as jumping, squatting, and acceleration, aiming to understand how these relate to returning to sports. By analyzing angle and alignment measurements before and after surgery, the study seeks to identify factors that might predict rehabilitation success for athletes and enable personalized recovery plans. Participants will undergo biomechanical analysis that measures symmetry in hip muscular forces between their two lower limbs. This diagnostic test evaluates hip force moments across three planes and compares the two legs to assess movement balance. The study observes these parameters at 3 and 6 months after surgery to gather detailed biomechanical data. During the study, participants will be assessed on hip muscular force symmetry at the specified post-surgery intervals. Researchers will collect and analyze movement data related to jumping, squatting, and acceleration. The primary outcome is the symmetry of hip muscle forces between the legs, providing insights into recovery progress. The study runs until December 2026, with assessments focused on understanding rehabilitation and return to sport.
