Testing ways to rehabilitate the hip after arthroscopy
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares different rehabilitation methods after hip arthroscopy surgery for common causes of hip pain, like labral tears or femoroacetabular impingement. It may help find a recovery plan that works better and whether a smartphone blood-flow-restriction tool can be used safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for hip arthroscopy to treat problems inside the hip joint (like a labral tear or femoroacetabular impingement).
- Your condition matches one of the study hip causes, such as labral tear, femoroacetabular impingement, loose bodies, or ligamentum teres tear.
- You can use a smartphone and will use the free SAGA BFR app as part of the rehab plan.
- You do not plan to have surgery on both hips within 12 weeks of each other.
- You are not having certain other hip procedures at the same time, such as peri-acetabular osteotomy or specific soft-tissue repairs (hamstring or glute repairs).

This study looks at modified tools used during hip arthroscopy for people with hip impingement (FAI) and/or hip dysplasia. It may help patients with long-lasting hip pain and stiffness when non-surgical treatments haven’t worked.
This study looks at whether limiting blood flow to the thigh after hip arthroscopy (a hip surgery to repair damage) can improve recovery. You may be able to join if you’re a young adult scheduled for first-time hip arthroscopy for certain hip problems.
This trial tests a new kind of physical therapy after hip replacement. It combines strength exercises with a special technique called blood flow restriction to see if it helps you recover muscle strength faster.
This study tests a new way to position patients during hip keyhole surgery to reduce injury to the groin area from pulling. If you are having hip arthroscopy for a condition called femoroacetabular impingement, this trial might help make your recovery smoother.
This study tests whether a mobile app can help with physical therapy after common bone or joint surgeries. You may qualify if you recently had a hip fracture, hip or knee replacement, or spine surgery without paralysis. The app guides your exercises at home.
This study tests whether adding platelet-rich plasma (a blood concentrate), platelet-poor plasma, or bone marrow concentrate during hip surgery helps people with a torn labrum recover better. If you need hip arthroscopy and haven't had prior hip surgery, you may be able to join.
