Currently, hip braces are recommended and typically worn by femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) patients after hip arthroscopic surgery. However, there is currently a lack of literature regarding the biomechanical effectiveness of hip braces. The purpose of this study was to investigate the biomechanical effect of hip braces after hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI. Overall, 11 patients who underwent arthroscopic FAI correction and labral preservation surgery were included in the study. Standing-up and walking tasks in unbraced and braced conditions were performed at 3 weeks postoperatively. For the standing-up task, videotaped images of the hip's sagittal plane were recorded while patients stood from a seated position. After each motion, the hip flexion-extension angle was calculated. For the walking task, acceleration of the greater trochanter was measured using a triaxial accelerometer. For the standing-up motion, the mean peak hip flexion angle was found to be significantly lower in the braced condition than in the unbraced condition. Furthermore, the mean peak acceleration of the greater trochanter was significantly lower in the braced condition than in the unbraced condition. Patients undergoing arthroscopic FAI correction surgery would benefit from usage of a hip brace in terms of protecting repaired tissues during early postoperative recovery.
