Intervenções fisioterapêuticas na reabilitação da artroplastia total de quadril: uma revisão narrativa

Abstract

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty surgery has a high and growing demand, which also increases the demand for rehabilitation for these patients. Objective: This review discusses the latest clinical trials for these patients, highlighting what is being researched and which interventions appear to be superior to conventional ones. Methods: A literature review was conducted using the PEDro and PubMed databases, searching for specific total hip arthroplasty (THA) articles from the last 5 years, with a PEDro score ≥ 6 Results: 14 studies were included, investigating remote care, the use of virtual reality, accelerated rehabilitation, increased self-efficacy, sleeping position restrictions, motor imagery, maximum strength training, photobiomodulation, elliptical trainer exercise, and fast track rehabilitation Conclusion: Telerehabilitation appears to be not inferior to In-person rehabilitation, and interventions with photobiomodulation, elliptical trainer exercise, and early mobilization seem to yield significant positive results. Other aspects of conventional rehabilitation no longer seem to be discussed in the scientific literature.
