Condition: Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) · Sponsor: Hacettepe University
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of foot core exercises on lower extremity muscle strength, viscoelastic properties, functional parameters, foot and ankle posture, balance, and the morphological characteristics of periarticular structures of the foot and ankle in individuals with total hip arthroplasty. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does foot core exercises affect morphological characteristics of the periarticular structures surrounding the foot and ankle? * Does foot core exercises affect viscoelastic properties of the periarticular structures surrounding the foot and ankle? * Does foot core exercises affect lower extremity muscle strength? * Does foot core exercises affect lower extremity functional parameters and balance in individuals with total hip arthroplasty? The researchers will compare the group performing foot core exercises with the group performing routine hip exercises that do not include foot core exercises. Participitants will: * Participants will receive an exercise log after a specialist physiotherapist demonstrates the exercises in practice at the third postoperative mounth. * Visit the clinic every two months from postoperative mounth 3 to month 7 for routine follow-ups and progression of exercises. * Except for the control sessions held every two mounths, patients will be followed up through weekly phone calls. * Participants will complete an exercise diary indicating that they performed the exercises prescri…
