Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS)
Time Frame: 6 weeks
NPRS is anchored by terms describing pain severity extremes. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable"
Goniometry
Time Frame: 6 weeks
A goniometer is a device that measures an angle or permits the rotation of an object to a definite position
Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS)
Time Frame: 6 weeks
A 40 item questionnaire (hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score, HOOS) was constructed to assess patient-relevant outcomes in five separate subscales (pain, symptoms, activity of daily living, sport and recreation function and hip related quality of life).
