Categorized PT for Non-arthritic Hip and Groin Pain (NCT04720846)
Assessment of a Categorized Physical Therapy Protocol for Non-arthritic Hip and Groin Pain: a Randomized Controlled Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
There is currently limited literature on a categorized physical therapy protocol for management of hip pain. Only a handful of studies have looked at the treatment of osteoarthritis of the hip with a standardized physical therapy treatment, primarily looking at manual therapy versus exercise therapy protocols. However, there are no studies observing the effect of a standardized physical therapy program on patients presenting with non-arthritic hip and groin pain. Based on the gap in the literature, this study will aim to assess the effect of matrix-based standard of care therapy in patients presenting with non-arthritic hip and groin pain.
