Brief Summary: Randomized controlled trial Patients will be enrolled at the moment of the pre-surgery assessment after verifying the inclusionexclusion criteria and signing written informed consent After surgical treatment THR or TKR and subsequent rehabilitation treatment which usually lasts 3-4 months patients will be contacted and the persistence of inclusionexclusion criteria verified again For each type of surgical procedure ie THR or TKR those with confirmed inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to the IG or the CG The IG will participate in a 6-month exercise program based on the PAIR exercise protocol and will receive educational sessions and material on the importance of maintaining an active life style after THR or TKR The CG will receive only educational sessions and material on the importance of maintaining an active life style after THR or TKR Participants of both IG and CG will be assessed at the moment of randomization post-surgery baseline and subsequently after 3 and 6 months
Detailed Description: The present study is carried out within the project Physical ActIvity after hip and knee Replacement PAIR and funded within the Erasmus Plus Sport program Grant Agreement 613008-EPP-1-2019-1-IT-SPO-SCP It is aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of an exercise program specifically designed for improving physical function and QoL in people who had undergone THR or TKR for primary osteoarthritis after completing the surgical and rehabilitative treatment

The primary objective of the study is to compare modifications of QoL measured with the Short-Form Health Survey SF-36 induced in the intervention groups IG by the PAIR exercise program versus a control groups CG who will undergo usual care SF-36 is one of the most widely used questionnaire to measure the health related QoL HRQoL in total hip and total knee arthroplasty patients

The secondary objectives of the study are to investigate differences between IG and CG on domains which are considered to be determinants of QoL

Hip- and knee-related impairments and functional limitations

Harris Hip Score HHS American Knee Society scoring KSS
Visual analog scale VAS to evaluate pain High-Activity Arthroplasty Score HAAS ---Western Ontario and McMasters Universities Osteoarthritis

Hip and knee joints mobility by goniometry

Life style The ultimate goal of the PAIR exercise program is to increase physical activity in a sedentary population The exercise program through its beneficial effects on health is expected to generate a virtuous circle promoting a more active life-style For this domain 2 instruments will be used Recent Physical Activity Questionnaire RPAQ and PAIR questionnaire for patients attitudes toward physical instrument generated within the PAIR project

Safety Adverse clinical events ACEs occurred to the participants both inside and outside gym classes

Adherence adherence of each subjects to the exercise program will be monitored in the IG The adherence will be measured as percent of exercise sessions actually performedtotal number of scheduled exercise sessions Other factors considered to influence the adherence to an exercise program will be also recorded age gender comorbidity BMI educational level marital status working activity and home gym-distance

Participants satisfaction Satisfaction of PAIR exercise program is a very important domain since influence adherence It will be verified by asking few questions with structured responses based on a 7-point Likert scale to get participants opinion about the PAIR exercise program
