Functional condition of the locomotor system in patients with coxarthrosis

Abstract

The muscle strength and biomechanical parameters of walking have been studied in 136 patients with 1, 2, and 3 stage coxathrosis before and after complex conservative treatment. The strength increase of the muscles of uninvolved lower limb segments, the reduction of time-related stride parameters of the limb involved, the increase of functional loading of the support surface of both limbs was observed as a result of treatment.
