Clinical Trial Summary

The objectives of treatment in hip osteoarthritis are pain relief, improve joint range of motion and muscle force, gait rehabilitation, patient education and socio-professional reintegration.The non-pharmacological and non-surgical methods include certain types of physical therapy: massage, heat, ultrasound, laser, shockwave therapy. Few studies have been conducted so far for outcome measurement in symptomatic hip osteoarthritis.

Description:

The objectives of treatment in hip osteoarthritis are pain relief, improve joint range of motion and muscle force, gait rehabilitation, patient education and socio-professional reintegration.The non-pharmacological and non-surgical methods include certain types of physical therapy: massage, heat, ultrasound, laser, shockwave therapy. Among them, shockwave therapy is not a new treatment method, and seems to be effective in rotator cuff pathology, tennis elbow, and also on knee osteoarthritis, but few studies have been conducted so far for outcome measurement in symptomatic hip osteoarthritis.
