Comparative Effects of Focused and Radial Shock-Wave Therapies in Hip Osteoarthritis.

There is no scientific study in the literature regarding the use of shock wave therapy in hip osteoarthritis. In this study, we aim to investigate both the effectiveness of ESWT and which type of ESWT can be more effective in hip osteoarthritis.

Primary outcomes

  1. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: at baseline.

    patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome.

  2. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: 4 weeks after baseline.

    patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome

  3. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: 8 weeks after baseline.

    patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)

    Time frame: at baseline.

    24-item questionnaire for osteoarthritis, in the range of 0 to 96, higher scores mean a worse outcome
