Investigation the Effects of Core Stabilization Training on Gait, Balance, Muscle Strength, Functions, Fear of Movement and Quality of Life in Individuals With Developmental Hip Dysplasia

The study will be conducted in two groups. Individuals with DDH will be divided into two groups as conventional physiotherapy group and core stabilization group. It will be ensured that the distribution of the individuals in the groups in a randomized manner, with the disease stages of the two treatment groups being the same and the clinical characteristics are similar. The population of the study, individuals diagnosed with DDH by the orthopaedic surgeon, routinely directed to physiotherapy and rehabilitation, examined by the responsible investigator and who were referred to our clinic for the research, will be evaluated twice(before and after treatment) and will be treated for 3 times a week for 6 weeks. The study will consist of female individuals aged 20-60 who voluntarily agree to participate in the study (2 times evaluation and 18 times treatment). It is planned to involve at least 16 individuals. Individuals who meet the criteria for inclusion in the study and volunteers will be included in the study by signing the Informed Voluntary Consent Form. In Hacettepe University, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, pain severity of subjects with DDH will be evaluated with Digital Analogue Scale (SAS) and algometer, joint range of motion with goniometer, muscle strength with digital dynamometer, walking with GaitRite device, balance with Bertec device and hip functions, kineyophobia, questionnaires will be given to evaluate quality of life and mood. After the first evaluation, individuals will be treated 3 times a week for 6 weeks and then the first evaluations will be done again. The data obtained before and after treatment will be compared between the two treatment groups.
