Abstract
Although deep hip bending activities are often required in Asian populations because
of traditional lifestyles and religious practices, few have examined the required
hip range of motion (ROM) in these activities after total hip arthroplasty (THA).
We performed postoperative motion analysis to evaluate the differences in required
ROMs between Japanese-style and Western-style deep hip bending activities, to investigate
whether prosthetic impingement would occur during these activities and to clarify
the necessity for precautions in these activities after THA. Japanese-style activities
did not require larger hip ROMs than Western-style ones, and all required hip flexion
angles were less than 120°. Prosthetic impingement was not observed, with a safety
margin 10° or higher until impingement in any directions of flexion, adduction, or
internal rotation for any activities. Thus, particular postoperative precautions for
Japanese-style activities are not required.
