Physical Activity Following Hip Arthroscopy in Young and Middle-Aged Adults: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Hip arthroscopy is a common surgical intervention for young and middle-aged adults with hip-related pain and dysfunction, who have high expectations for returning to physical activity following surgery. The purpose of this review was to evaluate the impact of hip arthroscopy on physical activity post-arthroscopy. METHODS:A systematic search of electronic databases was undertaken in identifying studies from January 1st 1990 to December 5th 2019. The search included English language articles reporting physical activity as an outcome following hip arthroscopy in adults aged 18-50 years. Quality assessment, data extraction and synthesis of included studies were undertaken. RESULTS:Full text articles (n = 234) were assessed for eligibility following screening of titles and abstracts
