Resumen:
The most widely used method to assess the outcome of total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the Harris Hip Score (HHS). Patients' expectations about the benefits of hip arthroplasty are increasing and are no longer limited to pain reduction. Patients believe they will be able to do recreational activity and sport after surgery. It is also essential to assess the level of physical activity after arthroplasty insofar as it is associated with early failure of the components. The purpose of this study is to explore correlation of the HHS with physical activity in patients with THA.
