Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
This pilot study will collect sufficient data to power a future study that will determine the efficacy of MoveTrain compared to ManTher for people with PAHD. Participants with PAHD will be randomized into one of two treatment groups, MoveTrain or ManTher. The Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) will be the primary outcome measure. A measure of hip adduction motion during functional tasks and quantitative sensory assessment (pain pressure threshold and temporal summation) will be the secondary measures used to assess the effect of respective treatment on the impairments thought to contribute to PAHD, thus addressing the mechanisms of pain. Upon completion of this study, we will be positioned to implement a large RCT (randomized clinical trial) to definitively assess the efficacy of MoveTrain and ManTher to improve PAHD.
Specific Aims: To obtain preliminary estimates of effect sizes for planning the future definitive randomized clinical trial,
Aim 1 (Function): we will compare post-treatment improvements in hip-specific, patient-reported outcomes among the two treatment groups. After treatment completion:
Aim 2 (Mechanism): we will compare pre- and post-treatment measures in lower extremity movement patterns during functional tasks (MoveTrain) and quantitative sensory testing (ManTher). After treatment completion:
Aim 3 (Prognosis): we will determine the association among personal factors at baseline (demographic and psychosocial) and treatment prognosis (improvement in HOOS).
Impact: Our line of research will improve our understanding of each proposed treatment and its effect on patient function and each treatment's targeted impairment. This improved understanding will lead to the development of treatment strategies that will ultimately result in comparative effectiveness studies of surgical and non-surgical treatment.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Movement Pattern Training
Focus will be on task-specific training to improve lower extremity movement patterns during basic daily tasks, such as sit to stand and stairs, and reported patient-specific tasks. Patient education will include instruction in abnormal movement patterns and methods to optimize movement patterns during each task. Tasks will be prioritized based on patient-report of activity limitations during the baseline examination. For example, during the first visit, the treating physical therapist will begin with the daily and patient-specific tasks that the patient reported as being most bothersome. Exercises will include repeated practice of functional tasks using optimized movement patterns. Based on the participant's performance, the difficulty of the task-specific activities will be progressed by varying the repetitions performed, increasing the load or changing the support surface. The home program will consist of repeated practice of tasks performed during the supervised sessions.
Movement Pattern Training
Treatment will include 10 supervised sessions over 12 weeks and instruction in a home exercise program After randomization, participants will be scheduled with a physical therapist trained in standard procedures. Treatment will include assessment of patient goals, patient education and instruction in a home program. Patient education will focus on patient-specific tasks, identified by the participant to be symptom-producing.
Manual Therapy (Joint Mobilization)
Focus will be on reducing pain and improving pain-free range of motion using manual techniques provided by the physical therapist and exercise performed in the home program. Patient education will include instruction to the benefits of manual therapy and the proposed effects on pain and joint mobility. Joint mobilizations to be used with each patient will be prioritized based on the restrictions, defined as stiffness or pain that is limiting joint range of motion, noted on the patient's baseline examination. For example, during the first visit, the treating physical therapist will begin with the two most restricted motions noted in the baseline exam and perform a standard assessment to determine treatment parameters. The home program will include joint range of motion and stretching exercises to complement techniques performed during the supervised sessions.
Manual Therapy
Treatment will include 10 supervised sessions over 12 weeks and instruction in a home exercise program After randomization, participants will be scheduled with a physical therapist trained in standard procedures. Treatment will include assessment of patient goals, patient education and instruction in a home program. Patient education will focus on patient-specific tasks, identified by the participant to be symptom-producing.
