Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hip Surgery
Interventions
Other: Eccentric Training
Other: Active Release Technique
Registration Number
NCT03954730
Lead Sponsor
Riphah International University
Brief Summary

This study will compare the effects of Eccentric training and Strength training with priory applied Active Release Technique on Quadriceps muscle in post operative patients of Dynamic Hip screw. Participants would be equally divided into two groups each receiving specific type of protocol besides standard post operative protocol of Dynamic Hip screw

Detailed Description

The study is Randomized Control Trial, being conducted at Fauji Foundation Hospital Rawalpindi .This study will compare the effects of two techniques addressing the contractile as well as non-contractile element of Quadriceps in early phase of Rehabilitation.

Sample size of 18 was calculated using software Epitool with 95% confidence interval and 80% power. Individuals of selected population will be randomly allocated as 9 in Eccentric group and 9 in Active Release Technique group by sealed enveloped method.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Knee Range of Motion (ROM)post 6th week

To assess Knee range of motion (ROM), Goniometer will be use to measure knee range of motion in flexion \& extension. Participants will be seated upright and asked to actively move their knee in each direction.

Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS)post 6th week

Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is used to assess pain. It scores ranges from 0-10, 0 means No pain and 10 means Severe pain. Patient will be asked to verbally report the pain score.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Modified Harris Hip score(MHHS)post 6th week

The modified Harris hip score (MHHS) is used to assess functional outcomes of hip joint. It is scored from 0 (worst functional outcome and maximum pain) to 100 points (best functional outcome and least pain).
