Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine which group exercise one should choose when hip osteoarthritis patients have undergone hip replacement surgery. To determine this, we want to answer the following research question:
Are there differences in function and muscle strength in osteoarthritis patients who conduct group training either on land or in water in the rehabilitation phase following hip replacement surgery?

Arms & Interventions
Group training on land
Group training in water and on land are carried out by the same principles, which is to improve general function, and to improve function and strength around the operated hip.
Intervention: Group training (Other)
Group training in water
Group training in water and on land are carried out by the same principles, which is to improve general function, and to improve function and strength around the operated hip
Intervention: Group training (Other)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Function1
Time Frame: Pre-operative
Function is evaluated using a questionnaire, Harris Hip Score (HHS) and by using 6-minute walk test (6MWT).
Function2
Time Frame: Post-operative
Function is evaluated using a questionnaire, Harris Hip Score (HHS) and by using 6-minute walk test (6MWT).
Funtion3
Time Frame: After 12 weeks training
Function is evaluated using a questionnaire, Harris Hip Score (HHS) and by using 6-minute walk test (6MWT).
Secondary Outcomes
- Muscle strength1(Pre-operative)
- Muscle strength2(Post-operative)
- Muscle strength3(After 12 weeks training)
