Abstract
Following HRA, patients can achieve significant improvements in activity measured using the UCLA Activity Index. Activity levels have been shown to initially decrease following HRA, with improvement throughout the first postoperative year. The results of this study provide clinicians with a simple tool to help patients visualise their post-operative recovery. This may have implications when managing patient expectations of post-operative activity level in both HRA and large head THA populations.
