The purpose of this clinical study was to assess low frequency, low intensity magnetic fields in the enhancement of the physical rehabilitation of patients after knee endoprosthesis surgery. The study included 62 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty. Group A consisted of 32 patients who were physically rehabilitated. Group B consisted of 30 patients who were physically rehabilitated and treated additionally with pulsing magnetic fields (5 mT, 30 Hz, 20 min once a day, 5 days weekly). Therapy lasted 3 weeks for both groups. The rehabilitation process was evaluated using a goniometer, tensometer, goniometric pendulum test, Lysholm scale for knee function, and a visual analogue scale (VAS) questionnaire for pain and activity. The changes of measured rates were comparable in both groups. Low frequency and low intensity magnetic fields of examined parameters were not demonstrated to effectively improve the rehabilitation of patients after knee endoprosthesis surgery.
本临床研究的目的是评估低频、低强度磁场对膝关节置换术后患者身体康复的促进作用。该研究纳入了62例行全膝关节置换术的患者。A组由32例接受身体康复治疗的患者组成。B组由30例接受身体康复治疗并额外接受脉冲磁场治疗的患者组成（5 mT，30 Hz，每天一次，每次20分钟，每周5天）。两组的治疗均持续3周。使用测角计、张力计、测角摆试验、膝关节功能的Lysholm量表以及疼痛和活动的视觉模拟量表（VAS）问卷对康复过程进行评估。两组测量指标的变化具有可比性。所检测参数的低频和低强度磁场未被证明能有效改善膝关节置换术后患者的康复情况。
