Lower Extremity Orthosis Application in Cerebral Palsy Patients

Year 1994, Volume: 28 Issue: 2, 123 - 126, 11.09.2006

Abstract

The deformities in lower extremity applied surgeries, orthoses used in lower extremities and ambulation Ievels of 220 patients with cerebralpalsy that were hospitalized for rehabilitation in Ankara Rehabilitation Center are discussed. The deformities frequently observed were flexion, adduction and internal rotation in hip joints; flexion in knee; and pes equinus in foot. 23 of our patients had operations on Iower ekxtremity. Lower extremity orthoses were ap,dlied in 71 patients. 2 received short leg. 7 received long leg orthoses. 45 had walking splints and in 17 ambulation was obtained by knee splints. Ambulation was performed by suitable rehabilitation shortly after the operation. The patients who referred lately suffered from contractures because of having difficulty in keeping the necessary positions. Carefulapplication of orthosis maintains stability in joints, improves the posiure and also suppor1s the ambulation.

Serebral Felçli Hastalarda Alt Ekstremite Ortez UyguIamaları

Year 1994, Volume: 28 Issue: 2, 123 - 126, 11.09.2006

Abstract

Ankara Rehabilitasyon Merkezine yatırılarak rehabilitasyon programına alınmış olan 220 serebral felçli hastada, alt ekstremitede mevcut deformiteler, uygulanan operasyonlar, alt ekstremitede kullanılan ortezler ve. hastaların ambulasyon düzeyleri belirlendi. Kalçada. en sık fleksiyon, adduksiyon ve internal rotasyon, dizde fleksiyon, ayak ve ayak bileğinde pes ekuinus deformitesi saptandı. Hastalanmızın 23'ü (% 1 0.45) alt ekstremiteye yönelik operasyon geçirmişti. 71 (%32) hastamıza alt ekstremite ortezi uygulanmış olup, 2'sinde kısa bacak cihazı, 7'sinde uzun bacak cihazı, 45'inde yürüme splinti, 17'sinde diz splinti ile ambulasyon sağlandı. Operasyon sonrası erken dönemde uygun rehabilitasyon ile ambulasyonun sağlanabildiği, rehabilitasyona geç başlandığında ise kazanılmış olan düzgün pozisyonların korunamadığından kontraktürler geliştiği gözlendi. Dikkatli ve yerinde uygulanan ortez tatbikinin eklemlerde stabiliteyi sağladığı, postürü düzelttiği ve ambulasyona önemli ölçüde yardımcı olduğu sonucuna varıldı.
