Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to assess the efficacy of virtual reality through the Virtual Reality Rehabilitation System (VRRS) added to conventional rehabilitation versus conventional rehabilitation alone, for improving mobility, balance, and walking assessed by Timed Up and Go after primary Total Hip Arthroplasty.


Clinical Trial Description

Following ethics approval by the ULSS 9, adults with THA (at 7 days after surgery), aged between 45 and 85 years old will be recruited for the study by the office worker of the rehabilitation hospital. Patients will be informed about the aim of the study and will sign the informed consent. Patients that decided to participate in the study will be randomized into two rehabilitation groups: experimental group and control group. Patients will be evaluated for reaching the baseline data from a physiotherapist blind to the aim of the study. Both groups (experimental and control) will receive the same clinical indications during hospitalization. Both groups will perform the same daily warm-up exercises supervised by physiotherapists external to the study investigation and will receive the same conventional-exercises program. In addition to this, each group will perform a second rehabilitation session with the virtual reality, using the Virtual Reality Rehabilitation System (VRRS), but in the control group, the sensors of VRRS will be not connected. The primary outcome will be the Timed Up and Go (TUG), the test used to assess mobility, balance, and walking. ;
