Brief summary
to compare the effects of weight bearing and non-weight bearing exercises on pain, range of motion and disability in patients with total hip replacement
Interventions
* Standing knee raise 10 rep x 2sets * Standing knee bend 10 rep x 2sets * Standing hip extension 10 rep x 2sets * Shallow squats 5 rep x 2 sets After 4 week gradually restricting the use of assistive device when patient become able to walk and stand for 10 mins then add stair climbing and descending with a step height not higher than 7 inch. The session will be around 45 to 60 minutes on each patient with 2 sessions per week on alternate days to observe the long term effects.
* Seated knee flexion 10 rep x 2sets * Seated knee extension 10 rep x2sets * Use of stationary bicycle 10 mins * Side lying leg lift 10 rep x2sets * Straight leg raise 10 rep x 2sets The session will be around 45 to 60 minutes on each patient with 2 sessions per week on alternate days to observe the long term effects.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) | 6 weeks | NPRS is anchored by terms describing pain severity extremes. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. no pain) to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. pain as bad as you can imagine or worst pain imaginable |
| Goniometry | 6 weeks | A goniometer is a device that measures an angle or permits the rotation of an object to a definite position |
| Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) | 6 weeks | A 40 item questionnaire (hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score, HOOS) was constructed to assess patient-relevant outcomes in five separate subscales (pain, symptoms, activity of daily living, sport and recreation function and hip related quality of life). |
