This study investigates the additional benefits of Mobilization Exercises and Closed Kinetic Chain Exercises (CKCE) in elderly individuals with post-operative neck of femur fracture. The researcher employs a randomized controlled trial which will involve 49 participants aged above 65 years with post-operative neck of femur fracture.
Participants are divided into two groups:
one receiving Mobilization Exercises, and the other receiving Closed Kinetic Chain Exercises. Outcomes are assessed over a 6 week period, focusing on pain intensity, Range of motion, risk of fall by goniometer, visual analogue scale (VAS) and dynamic gait index (DGI) scores. Data will be analyzed using SPSS-23. The study will conclude whether CKCE or Mobilization exercises offer a significant benefit in pain reduction, prevent risk of falls and range of motion.

| Mobilizations Exercises | Combination Product | Group A was treated with mobilizations exercises for 40 minutes for 3 sessions per week for 6 weeks. Patients received hip mobilizations. Therapist perform anterior posterior glide, caudal glide, posterior anterior glide with abduction, flexion and lateral rotation in 3 sets with 10 repetitions .Mobilization grades were performed according to patients tolerance level with duration 30-second rest .Hip strengthening exercises were performed 3 sets with 10 repetition with hip abduction in side lying, hip extension in prone position, sideway walk, hip abduction in a stand up position. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) | The 10-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing "no pain" to '10' representing "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable". The VAS is a valid and reliable scale to measure pain intensity. VAS demonstrates strong correlation validity with other established pain measurement scales, making it a reliable tool for clinical assessments. Validity is 0.88 % and Reliability is 0.90%. | 12 Months |
| Dynamic Gait Index (DGI) | The questionnaire has been designed to evaluate risk of fall and balance during dynamic tasks. DGI includes 8 items, score between 0-3 scales. Score of 0 indicates severe impairment and score of 3 indicates normal function. Total score is between 0-24. Validity is 0.88% and Reliability is 0.97%. Interpretation 0-11: Severe impairment 12-19: Moderate impairment 20-24: Mild impairment | 12 months |
| GONIOMETER | Goniometer is used to measure the joint angle in degrees, ROM and flexibility. The goniometer measures ranges and degrees of joints. The range of goniometer is typically 0-180 degrees or o-360 degrees. The intervals on scale can vary from 0-10 degrees. Hip Joint Ranges of Motion
