Effect of neuromuscular training on femoroacetabular impingement / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of neuromuscular training on femoroacetabular impingement. MethodsFrom January, 2017 to November, 2021, 27 patients with femoroacetabular impingement in Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 13) and observation group (n = 14). The control group accepted routine rehabilitation training, and the observation group accpeted neuromuscular training in addition. They were assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, peak torque (PT) of hip flexion and extension, Y-balance test (YBT) and simplified International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12) before and after treatment. ResultsThe VAS score, PT, YBT score and iHOT-12 score improved in the observation group after treatment (|t| > 3.628, P < 0.01), while the VAS score and PT improved in the control group (|t| > 3.409, P < 0.01). After treatment, the VAS score, PT, YBT score and iHOT-12 score were better in the observation group than in the control group (|t| > 2.067, P < 0.05). ConclusionNeuromuscular training can relieve the pain of patients with femoroacetabular impingement, and improve the muscle strength and function of hip joint.
