The biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system in patients after tibial nonunion treatment using the Ilizarov method have not yet been fully explored. From the orthopaedic and patient point of view, after the treatment, an assessment should be carried out of the biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system. The aim of this study was to assess the body balance of patients treated with the Ilizarov method for tibial nonunion.
The research group included 24 individuals with a mean age of 55 years, who were treated for aseptic tibial nonunion with the Ilizarov method. The control group was matched to the study group in terms of gender and age, and consisted of 32 subjects with a mean age of 50.5 years and no significant medical history. This study evaluated the balance of patients with the use of pedobarography.
In the control group, a statistically significantly shorter path of centre of gravity was observed. There were no statistical differences between the study and control groups for the field area of the centre of gravity. There were no statistical differences between the study and control groups for the minor axis length or major axis length of the centre of gravity. There was a relationship between the centre of pressure path length and the age of the participants in both the control group and the study group.
Treatment of patients with tibial nonunion with the Ilizarov fixator achieves similar balance to healthy volunteers. In the pedobarographic evaluation, patients treated for tibial nonunion using the Ilizarov method had similar statics of the musculoskeletal system to healthy volunteers.
使用伊利扎洛夫(Ilizarov)方法治疗胫骨骨不连患者的肌肉骨骼系统生物力学尚未得到充分研究。从矫形和患者的角度来看,治疗后应评估肌肉骨骼系统的生物力学。本研究的目的是评估使用伊利扎洛夫(Ilizarov)方法治疗胫骨骨不连患者的身体平衡。
研究组包括 24 名平均年龄为 55 岁的个体,他们因无菌性胫骨骨不连而接受伊利扎洛夫(Ilizarov)方法治疗。对照组在性别和年龄上与研究组相匹配,由 32 名平均年龄为 50.5 岁且无明显病史的受试者组成。本研究使用足底压力计评估患者的平衡。
在对照组中,观察到重心轨迹明显缩短。研究组和对照组的重心场面积没有统计学差异。研究组和对照组的重心短轴长度和长轴长度没有统计学差异。在对照组和研究组中,中心压力路径长度与参与者的年龄之间存在关系。
使用伊利扎洛夫(Ilizarov)固定器治疗胫骨骨不连患者可获得与健康志愿者相似的平衡。在足底压力计评估中,使用伊利扎洛夫(Ilizarov)方法治疗胫骨骨不连的患者的肌肉骨骼系统统计学与健康志愿者相似。
