A factor affecting the walking ability after TKA

我们发现TKA患者的肌肉活动模式与健康受试者不同，这种差异可能会影响姿势的稳定性。行走能力的预测因子中，手术侧膝关节屈曲活动范围、腘绳肌力量、行走速度TUG和步幅TUG均为显著变量。因此，对于TKA后行走能力的改善，建议通过改善平衡能力、运动范围和肌肉力量来改善行走能力的可能性。这些结果被认为有助于TKA术后的康复。

We show the muscle activity pattern different from the healthy subject in the TKA patients, and this difference may influence posture stability. Also, in the examination of the predictor of the walking ability, knee range of motion of flexion of the operated side, hamstring power and TUG in walking speed and TUG in stride length were the variables that was significant. Therefore, for improvement of the walking ability after TKA, the likelihood that could improve walking ability by improving ability for balance was suggested as well as range of motion and improvement of the muscular strength. These results are thought to help the rehabilitation after TKA.
