Analysis of Kinematic Balance In Hip Arthroplasty for Patients With Various Pathological Forms of Degenerative-Dystrophic Diseases

The relevance of this study is determined by the necessity to assess kinematic balance in patients with degenerative-dystrophic hip joint disorders at different stages of surgical treatment and rehabilitation. The main objective of the research is to analyze compensation mechanisms after hip arthroplasty, the dynamics of functional recovery, and factors influencing motor activity in patients.

Methods: The study involved 710 patients, divided into two groups based on the applied therapeutic methods. Functional status assessment was conducted using stabilometry, podography, goniometry, electromyography, and statistical analysis. Kinematic parameters were evaluated through gait phase analysis and postural control assessment.

Results: The study demonstrated that hip arthroplasty contributes to restoring kinematic balance, reducing pain syndrome, and improving functional outcomes. However, patients with post-traumatic hip disorders exhibited residual functional limitations. Personalized rehabilitation strategies, incorporating biomechanical analysis and 3D modeling, yielded superior outcomes compared to conventional approaches.

Conclusion: The findings confirm the necessity of a personalized approach to rehabilitation in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. A detailed examination of biomechanical characteristics and the optimization of rehabilitation programs enhance the effectiveness of medical interventions and improve patients’ quality of life.
