Resumen

When the hip joint is degenerated to the point where activities of daily living, especially walking, become very painful, it is necessary to replace the hip called Total Hip Arthroplasty (HCA). Postoperative physiotherapy, through its vast scientific resources, aims to promote and rehabilitate the health of these patients, using specialized techniques for adequate application of resources (physical and natural). Hydrotherapy uses the aquatic environment to achieve physiotherapeutic goals: maintenance or gain of range of motion, muscular strength, analgesia, promotion of functional independence. It becomes indispensable to the physiotherapeutic intervention immediately in the postoperative period, with the purpose of validating the rehabilitation. Under this bias, the present study aimed to analyze the results and benefits obtained through hydrotherapy in ATQ, in order to verify the effect of treatment on muscle strength, proprioception and balance in the postoperative period. It was also observed the functional gait of the patient undergoing the surgical procedure in the rehabilitation process, discussing the efficacy of the hydrotherapeutic exercises in the postoperative period of TKA, through bibliographic research. The deepening of this discussion, in dialogue with the aforementioned authors, allows the conclusion that there was an improvement in the clinical picture in the patients who underwent physiotherapy in the postoperative period of HCA, demonstrating the importance of early treatment in the recovery of the patient's functionality and quality of life.
