Q

what are the 4 concepts of post-op rehab

A
  1. provide environment to optimize healing
  2. initiate early/controlled ROM as an early approach to restore mobility
  3. restore neuromuscular control
  4. restore LE and lumbopelvic strength

Q

expected timeline after a hip arthroscopy

A

phase 1: immediate rehab
- protection of healing structures & mobility

phase 2: intermediate rehab
- normalize gait
- initiate CKC activity

phase 3: advanced rehab
- strengthening

phase 4: sport specific training

Q

what are 5 precautions in the immediate post-op phase

A
  1. no pivoting/rotating hip when amb
  2. avoid sx provocation during ADLs and ther-ex

Q

what are ROM interventions in the immediate postop phase (6)

A
  1. circumduction (reduce incidence of post-op intra-articular adhesions)
  2. flexion (0-90deg immediately)
  3. stationary bike (high seat <90deg hip flex, low resistance, upright posture)
  4. incision site scar mobility
  5. quadruped hip flex - moving back into child’s pose (partially loaded, pt controlled)
  6. stool rotations (active hip rotation, joint loading)

19
Q

what are 2 precautions in the advanced post-op phase of rehab

A
  1. sx provocation
  2. quality of movements and avoiding compensation is key w all activity
20
Q

what are 2 interventions introduced in the advanced post-op phase of rehab

A
  1. progress lumbopelvic/core exercises
  2. initiate plyometrices
    - jumping on leg press -» then move to hopping
21

A
  1. hip/pelvic strength >80% of opposite limb
  2. ROM appropriate for work/sport demands
  3. lumbopelvic control w single leg activities

22
Q

what are 2 goals of sport specific training

A

(I) w HEP and gym program
min post-exercise reactivity

23
Q

what are 2 precautions w sport specific training

A
  1. sx provocation
  2. maintain adequate strength for work / sport activity
24
Q

what are 5 interventions implemented in sport specific training

A

  2. full ROM, strength (pain-free)
  3. complete functional testing
  4. sport-specific drills at full speed (pain-free)
26
Q

what role does psychological readiness play in return to sport

A

likelihood of reinjury significantly higher in less psychologically ready
- if don’t feel ready, lot of apprehension

Q

what do agility and speed tests require and what do we look for

A

rapid changes of direction

look for if they are able to plant and change direction
- or do they shift to stronger side to change direction

40
Q

what is important in considering what clinical/functional tests are most beneficial in which patients
