Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Pain. Timepoint: before treatment, at the end of treatment (after the 10th week). Method of measurement: according to the Visual analog scale, patient pain will be assessed during resisted hip adduction.;Hip adductors strength by dynamo-meter. Timepoint: before treatment, at the end of treatment (after the 10th week). Method of measurement: Average of three Maximal Voluntary Contraction (MVC) recorded on the Biodex Dynamometer during hip isometric adduction.;Hip abductors strength by dynamo meter. Timepoint: before treatment, at the end of treatment (after the 10th week). Method of measurement: Average of three Maximal Voluntary Contraction (MVC) recorded on the Biodex Dynamometer during hip isometric abduction.;Hip range of motion by goniometer. Timepoint: before treatment, at the end of treatment (after the 10th week). Method of measurement: It is the range of motion of the hip joint abduction recorded by goniometer.;Time to return to sport. Timepoint: When the athlete fully returns to team training and competitions after treatment. Method of measurement: The time needed for the player to return to Sport in weeks and days.;Figure of eight hop test. Timepoint: before treatment, at the end of treatment (after the 10th week).
