简要总结
Background/Objectives: Total hip arthroplasty is one of the most common orthopedic procedures. When the surgery is successful and followed by high-quality physiotherapy, patients' quality of life usually improves and they return to their daily activities more qui-ckly.. Rehabilitation methods and medical devices are constantly evolving, to accelerate functional improvement. The aim of the study is to investigate the impact of the antigra-vity treadmill on the functional outcomes after total hip arthroplasty. Methods: A single centre, randomised, controlled, open label trial was conduct in Hospital for Medical Re-habilitation of the Heart and Lung Diseases and Rheumatism Thalassotherapia Opatija. 34 subjects were randomly divided into two groups: experimental (18) and control (16). The outcome measures included strength of the abductor muscles, range of motion, visual analogue scale, and Timed Up and Go test and 40-meter Fast Paced Walk test.
