Implication

Observational analysis improved hip function and muscle strength in 49 patients post-trochanteric fractures, indicating rehabilitation is critical for recovery.

Key Points

  • Significant improvement in hip motion and muscle strength was observed after physical therapy.
  • Hip flexion improved slightly more in the SIF group, while muscle strength increased more in the IM group.
  • Observed outcomes were not significantly influenced by age or gender among participants.
  • Both fixation methods showed similar rehabilitation outcomes in restoring hip function after fractures.
