Exercise interventions within three months post-THA improve postural stability, suggesting timely interventions are beneficial.
Of 16 trials, 15 were high quality, with the Timed Up and Go Test being the most utilized outcome measure for assessing stability.
Adding balance-challenging exercises to usual rehabilitation significantly enhanced short-term postural stability compared to standard care.
Limited outcome measures were identified, indicating a need for broader assessment methods and clarity on optimal exercise types.
