For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events

| Functional Strength Integration (FSI) | Progressive strength training exercise, specific functional activity to improve pelvic stability and core muscle strength Functional Strength Integration (FSI): FSI intervention involves strengthening of the hip musculature combined with focused techniques emphasizing early initiation of hip muscle recruitment to stabilize the pelvis, integrating strength and movement pattern training to maximize functional recovery. The FSI program consists of therapeutic exercise in 3 domains: pelvic stability (PST) training, functional training (FT), and strength training (ST). PST includes early surgical-limb weight bearing and core muscle strengthening, progressively increasing in difficulty based on performance benchmarks and therapist monitoring. FT focuses on gait and stair climb exercise, progressing to higher level agility training. ST includes progressive, resistance exercise to improve lower extremity muscle strength. The ST exercises include use of weighted pulleys/weight-training machines. Therapists will determine an 8-rep max for muscle groups and weight will be increased by 10% every 2 weeks to maximize hypertrophy and strength gains. | 0 | None | 0 | 45 | 3 | 45 | View |
| Control Group (CON) | Usual care, continuing education on postsurgical precautions Control Group (CON): Observed practice patterns from previous investigations and discussion with physical therapists indicate that patients receive rehabilitation services during the 2-3 day hospital stay after THA, but not routinely after hospital discharge. Yet, to control for attention and volume of rehabilitation for the FSI group, patients in the control group will attend outpatient physical therapy for 14 visits (40 minute sessions) over 8 weeks. This control program will mimic the typical postoperative experience for patients in our community, in which patients independently manage their activity. This program will focus on patient education, functional ADL training, and therapeutic exercise. However, the activities in the exercise domain will be limited to low load exercise such as isometric muscle exercise, range of motion (ROM), and flexibility activities. These activities are specifically designed to mirror usual care activity. | 0 | None | 0 | 50 | 3 | 50 | View |
