EFFECTIVENESS OF CORRECTION OF GERIATRIC STATUS OF ELDERLY PATIENTS WITH MOVEMENT CONSEQUENCES OF TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY USING PHYSICAL THERAPY

The aim of the study was to evaluate effectiveness influence developed program physical therapy on parameters geriatric status elderly patients with motor consequences total knee arthroplasty in long-term period after surgery. 
 Material and methods. 80 people were examined. control group consisted 24 without joint endoprostheses no signs syndromes. comparison persons a endoprosthesis sarcopenia low rehabilitation compliance respect intervention. Representatives main replacement engaged using functional training Prosedos platform, therapeutic exercises, massage, kinesiology taping, nutrition correction, patient education. evaluated by dynamics Senior Fitness Test, Tinetti-test (Performance-Oriented Mobility Assessment), Geriatric Depression Scale, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale. Results. examined characterized muscle weakness (statistically significant lag - coordination, static dynamic balance, strength, flexibility, endurance, dexterity compared their peers according Tinetti-test), high risk falling, kinesiophobia psycho-emotional depression, which increases loss autonomy death. revealed an improvement condition due links pathogenesis syndromes balance gait parameters, reduction falling fear movements, initial indicators all studied (р<0.05). group, despite awareness risks poly morbidity, associated lack similar observation period. Conclusions. Elderly need develop programs that take into account correct specifics each condition, will increase overall measures.
