Is Periacetabular Osteotomy Superior to Progressive Resistance Training?
Sponsor: University of Aarhus
Summary
The primary aim of this study is to examine if Periacetabular Osteotomy (PAO) followed by 4 months of usual care followed by 8 months of progressive resistance training (PRT) is superior to 12 months of a PRT intervention in patients with hip dysplasia eligible for PAO in terms of self-reported pain on the HAGOS questionnaire. Secondary aims are to investigate changes in patient-reported symptoms, physical function in daily living, physical function in sport and recreation, hip and/or groin-related quality of life, generic health status, functional performance, muscle strength, physical activity and adverse events between PAO followed by usual care+PRT compared to PRT only. We hypothesise that in patients with hip dysplasia, PAO followed by usual care+PRT, results in significantly less pain at 12 months follow-up, compared to PRT only.

Conditions
Interventions
PAO
PAO will be performed as the trans-sartorial approach or the anterior pelvic approach.
Usual care after PAO
Patients commence post-operative rehabilitation as usual and follow the rehabilitation program guided by a physiotherapist specialized in hip problems until 4 months after the operation.
PRT
4 months of partly supervised progressive resistance training 2 times per week. After these 4 months (16 weeks), patients receive a free membership to a fitness center near their home address and are encouraged to train on their own 2 times per week until 12 months follow-up with one supervised session per month. The PRT program involves 10-min of warm up followed by 50-min of bilateral resistance exercises including sets of squats, hip extension, hip flexion, and hip abduction.
