Analysis of Biomechanical Parameters and Return to Sport After Hip Arthroscopy

The aim of this prospective study is to describe dynamic movement parameters in active patients who underwent surgery between 3 and 6 months after hip arthroscopy, focusing on movements such as jumping, squatting and acceleration. By examining the relationships between these different parameters and the return to sporting activities, and by integrating different angle and alignment measurements per- and post-operatively, we hope to find predictive factors for successive rehabilitation in athletes, which could lead to more personalized rehabilitation protocols.

Treatment and study plan

Measure of symmetry between the inferior limbs

Diagnostic Test

Hip force moments will be analyzed in the 3 planes (in Nm/Kg) and compared between the two legs.

Primary outcomes

  1. Symmetry of hip muscular forces between the two lower limbs

    Time frame: 3 months after surgery ; 6 months after surgery

    Hip force moments will be measured in 3 planes (sagittal, frontal, transverse), in Nm/Kg, using a set of sensors and force and pressure platforms.
