Pain Practice Jun 19, 2020
French HP, Deasy M, Gallagher R, et al. - Via performing a systematic review, researchers sought to ascertain the prevalence of hip or groin pain in adolescent populations. Searching five electronic databases until January 2019, they identified 8 population‐based, 8 clinical, and 4 sports populations for inclusion in this work. Studies were conducted in Europe, North America, and Australia. Classification of The prevalence was done into “0 to 3 months” and “3 months and above." In all adolescents, the overall prevalence of hip or groin pain was 12% based on 10 studies, and was 7% based on 7 population studies from 0 to 3 months. They emphasize practicing caution when considering these measures because the studies had substantial heterogeneity. Four studies indicated the pain prevalence of 12% in cerebral palsy from 0 to 3 months. Individual prevalence estimates were 6% and 31% in obese and 4% in hypermobility populations, respectively, and ranged from 6% to 100% in 4 sports studies. Poor methodological quality compromises the validity of these estimates.
