Most common joint degeneration disease is coxarthritis. This disease is diagnosed for 5 % of all adults, who are suffering from orthopedic illnesses. Coxarthritis and hip fractures are most often reasons to make joint replacement operations Hip joint endoprosthesis is most successful and economically efficacious of all surgical operations and interventions. About 1 million operations are produced all over the world per year. The hypothesis of this work was raised on considering the endoprosthesis operations situation, i.e. requirement and efficacious of operations, the treatment of the coxarthritis and hip fractures, the great signification of physical therapy on the postoperative stage. Muscle strength and joints mobility depends not only on the type of the hip fracture (traumatic or inflammatory) but also on the strength of hip muscles. The aim of this research was to establish the strength of hip muscles and mobility changes after physical therapy for patients after hip endoprosthesis and hip fractures. The research has been done at the rehabilitation centre UAB “Baldzio Silas” in 2005-2006. 60 patients were involved in this research. They were divided in two groups depending on a reason of the endoprosthesis. The patients were prescribed a complex of kinesitherapeutic means, i.e. curative gymnastic exercises performed for 30-45 minutes twice a day, 5-6 times per week. Measurements of the muscles were made 3 times: first time after operation, after arrival to the... [to full text]
