Official Title: An Integrated Biomechanical Investigation of Subjects With Symptomatic FAI and Two Groups of Asymptomatic Controls: a Comparison in Dynamic Tasks
Brief Summary:
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is an orthopaedic condition that is primarily characterized by the presence of anatomic bony abnormalities in the femoral head and/or the acetabulum resulting in an abnormal contact between the two during hip motion, especially in positions of increased hip flexion and rotation, ultimately leading to hip pain.Unfortunately, a FAI diagnosis is frequently only made once symptoms have become severe to an extent that they limit everyday life activities.Moreover, another…
