What is Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment - Gluteal (VISA-G)

The Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment - Gluteal (VISA-G) helps clinicians track hip pain and disability in gluteal tendinopathy cases. Specifically built for Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome, this reliable survey features eight targeted items that measure exactly how hip issues impact daily life and load tolerance. Patients rate their pain levels during common activities like walking, climbing stairs, and lying on the side. The total scores range from 0 to 100, where higher numbers mean better function, capturing the real struggle of living with lateral hip pain. It is easy to use in busy clinics and takes only a few minutes to complete. Physiotherapists use it to monitor recovery over time or check if treatments are working well. The final score gives a clear picture of hip health, making it a practical choice for guiding effective rehab plans and ensuring patients get back on their feet.

VISA-G Scoring

The VISA-G can be scored using one main approach that totals points from eight specific questions. You'll rate eight items regarding pain levels and ability to manage daily loads, with each question worth up to 10 points. The first seven focus on stiffness and function, while the final question checks pain during weight bearing tasks. Simply sum these up for a total out of 100. A perfect 100 means you're fully fit and pain free, whereas 0 indicates severe disability. It's a top way for physios to monitor how your hip tendon handles stress during rehab.
