Continuous passive motion (CPM) was used to maintain or gain hip and knee range of motion in 18 postoperative or postinjury pediatric orthopedic patients. Continuous passive motion was started in the early postoperative period and augmented with physical therapy. The device was well-tolerated in 16 of the 18 patients. In all but one, motion was improved with a progressive decrease in joint pain. In these patients, CPM was found to be a valuable tool in rehabilitation, and did not interfere with traction, open wounds, nursing care, nor external fixation devices.
连续被动运动（CPM）用于维持或增加18例术后或受伤后的儿科骨科患者的髋关节和膝关节活动范围。连续被动运动在术后早期开始，并辅以物理治疗。18例患者中有16例对该设备耐受性良好。除1例患者外，其余患者的活动范围均有改善，关节疼痛逐渐减轻。在这些患者中，CPM被证明是康复治疗中的一种有价值的工具，并且不影响牵引、开放性伤口、护理及外固定装置。
