Exercise and Patient Education Compared With Usual Care in Patients With Hip Dysplasia
Sponsor: University of Aarhus
Summary
This effectiveness trial will investigate if patients with hip dysplasia randomised to exercise and patient education have a different mean change in self-reported pain measured by the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) compared with those randomised to usual care over a six-month follow-up period. Participating patients will be allocated to either exercise and patient education or usual care. Alongside this, a health-economic study and a process-evaluation study will be conducted.

Interventions
Exercise and patient education
Over a period of 6-months, patients will be offered eight one-to-one supervised training sessions. In these sessions, patients will be instructed in a home-based exercise programme and given patient education. The programme includes four exercises covering strength and stability training. The exercises will be performed in sets of three with a minimum of 5 repetitions, and patients will be instructed to perform a minimum of three training sessions each week. Each of the exercises can be progressed through three levels of difficulty, allowing for individualised treatment with regard to exercise quality and perceived exertion according to the Borg CR10 scale. Exercises will be performed on a perceived exertion level from somewhat hard (level 5) to very hard (level 7). Patient education includes pain management, a focus on exercise adherence and progression, and advice on physical activity.
Usual Care
Patients will follow usual care, including an individual consultation on self-management of hip symptoms and general advice on exercise and physical activity.
