Hip Pain and Mobility Deficits—Hip Osteoarthritis: Revision 2025

The 2025 Hip Pain and Mobility Deficits - Hip Osteoarthritis Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) is a revision of the 2017 CPG and represents the second update for this CPG from APTA Orthopedics. In preparation for this update, a review was conducted on the topic of hip osteoarthritis (OA) to identify articles published after March 2016. The topics addressed in this 2025 CPG revision will specifically attempt to answer the question: What is the evidence to support physical therapy interventions directed at patients with hip OA? Prevalence, pathoanatomical features, and clinical course were discussed in detail in both the original 2009 CPG and 2017 CPG revisions and therefore will only be briefly reviewed in this 2025 update.
