INFLUENCE OF MODERN METHODS OF REHABILITATION ON POSTURAL BALANCE IN PATIENTS WITH LUMBAL DORSOPATHY

The influence of complex rehabilitation on motor function was studied in 120 patients with dorsopathy of the lumbar spine operated on for radicular compression syndromes caused by herniated discs L4-L5, L5-S1, randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 (main) included 60 patients, the basic rehabilitation complex was optimized by stabilometric training and special physical exercises in the pre- and postoperative periods. Group 2 (comparison) consisted of 60 patients, in whom only the basic rehabilitation complex was used. A prospective 180-day follow-up showed that in patients of group 1, the positive dynamics of the pain syndrome assessment occurred in a shorter period, differing from the initial values by 2.5 times, while the indicators of group 2 differed by 1.7 times. The dynamics of balance assessment in patients of group 1 had statistically significant differences, differing from the initial values by 1.2 times, while in patients of group 2 the indicators differed by 1.1 times. The dynamics of the assessment of the quality of life in patients of group 1 had higher indicators and differed from the initial values by 1.7 times, while in patients of group 2 the indicators differed by 1.5 times. The dynamics of locomotor function in patients of group 1 differed from the initial values by 4.9 times, while patients of group 2 had indicators that differed from the baseline values by 2.3 times.
