Rehabilitation effect of standing bed combined with early anti-gravity running table training on ankle fracture.

To explore the clinical effect of standing bed combined with early anti-gravity running table training in the healing and functional recovery of anterior rotation external rotation ankle fractures. Fifty-two patients with ankle fractures of degree III or degree IV of PER admitted to Pingle Orthopaedic and Traumatology Hospital of Shenzhen City between September 2021 and January 2023 were selected for observation, and they were divided into 26 cases in each group according to the method of randomised numerical table into the control group and the observation group. The patients in the control group started the routine rehabilitation treatment on the 1st day after operation, and in the 0-2 weeks after operation, the affected limb was elevated and ankle pump training was carried out; in the 3-6 weeks after operation, joint mobility training, strength training and soft tissue release were carried out; and in the 6-8 weeks after operation, weight-bearing training was increased. The observation group added standing bed training on the 7th postoperative day and anti-gravity running table training on the 28th postoperative day on the basis of the treatment protocol of the control group. Bone density, ankle mobility and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scores, pain, ankle mobility and swelling evaluations were compared between the 2 groups before and after 8 weeks of treatment, and the quality scores of bone scabs were compared between the 2 groups after 4 weeks of treatment. There was no statistical significance in the comparison of the items between the two groups before treatment (all P > 0.05), and the difference in the bone scab quality score was not statistically significant after 4 weeks of treatment (P > 0.05), and after 8 weeks of treatment, the bone scab quality score, bone mineral density and AOFAS scores, pain, ankle mobility, and evaluations were higher than those of the control group (all P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference in the degree of swelling (P > 0.05). Standing bed combined with early anti-gravity running table training applied to postoperative patients with PER III or IV degree ankle fracture can reduce the degree of pain and improve the ankle joint function.
