Abstract
Background. Hip joint alloplasty is a very complicated therapeutic problem. The cooperation of the orthopedic surgeon with they physiotherapist is very important in successful treatment. The aim of current treatment strategies is to restore the function of the hip joint. This article describes the model of rehabilitation treatment we apply in our clinical practice.Material and methods. We examined 18 patients after hip alloplasty using a cementless endoprosthesis, operated in the Orthopedic and Traumatology Clinic of the Medical University of Bydgoszcz, and rehabilitated in the Rehabilitation Clinic of the Medical University of Bydgoszcz. On the basis of differences in limb length, the patients were divided into three subgroups: A) no difference in limb length; B) operated limb shorter; C) operated limb longer.Results. Significant differences among the subgroups were found in terms of the percentage of weight burden on the operated limb.Conclusions. Rehabilitation after hip alloplasty must consider each patient individually. Outcome depends not only on good surgical technique, but also the nature and quality of the rehabilitation program after surgery.

Abstract

The diversity of available strategies enables the choice of the optimal method leading to effective and safe clinical work. One such strategy is the PNF concept, which is characterized by a holistic approach to the patient and his problems. This makes it possible to treat the patient in his/her own environment, using familiar behaviors and situations. This article describes examples of the use of the MTD Control Balance Platform as an auxiliary device in an intensive program of functional exercises based on the PNF concept. Seven patients are described, all treated at the Rehabilitation Clinic of the Rydygier Academy of Medicine in Bydgoszcz. The examples include neurological and orthopedic disorders, as well as sports injuries. Only the patient’s adaptation to independent living is proof of the effectiveness of rehabilitation. This effect can be achieved by conducting therapy in the patient’s own environment, using familiar behaviors and situations. The examples of PNF therapy selected for presentation here, supplemented with the patient’s independent exercising on the MTD Control Platform, satisfy these conditions and can be recommended.
