immediate effect of hip abduction brace on mobility and functional balance of total hip replacement
Authors
abstract
background and aim: total hip replacement (thr) is done comprehensively all over the world. despite the effects of braces on control of thr complications , few studies have been performed on this subject. the purpose of this study was to evaluate immediate effect of hip abduction brace on mobility and functional balance of patients with thr. materials and methods: eight men and nine women with thr participated in this study. mobility and functional balance were assessed and compared with and without brace conditions by means of tug, fr and berg tests. results : a significantly higher tug, fr and berg scores were seen in brace condition compared to without brace situation (p < 0.05). conclusion: hip abduction brace can increase mobility and functional balance in patients with thr. keywords: total hip replacement, functional balance, functional mobility, hip abduction brace

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) or congenital hip dysplasia (CDH) is the most prevalent developmental childhood hip disorder. It includes a wide spectrum of hip abnormalities ranging from dysplasia to subluxation and complete dislocation of the hip joint. The natural history of neglected DDH in adults is highly variable. The mean age of onset of symptoms is 34.5 years for dysplastic DD...
full textImprovements in balance after total hip replacement.
We have investigated whether control of balance is improved during stance and gait and sit-to-stand tasks after unilateral total hip replacement undertaken for osteoarthritis of the hip. We examined 25 patients with a mean age of 67 years (sd 6.2) before and at four and 12 months after surgery and compared the findings with those of 50 healthy age-matched control subjects. For all tasks, balanc...

in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولThe effect of total hip replacement on driving reactions.
The driving reactions of 25 patients were assessed before and after operation for hip replacement. Driving reactions were tested by monitoring the delay and force of brake application after an emergency signal, using a simulated driving control system. Fifteen normal subjects were also tested. Statistical analysis demonstrated significant differences between patients with either left or right h...
