Detailed information on the rehabilitation program after endoprosthetics, necessary documents and available dates for patient admission - by phone

Often, joint replacement is the only solution to restore the ability to move and relieve the patient from pain. But a successful operation does not end the treatment process: in order for the new joint to be fully functional and not cause unnatural movements, it is important to begin working with rehabilitation specialists from the first days after installation of the prosthesis. The result of recovery and adaptation to life without restrictions depends 100% on how soon you begin rehabilitation after joint replacement

It is extremely important to begin designing your new joint from day one in accordance with the recommendations given by your orthopedic surgeon!

Mobility training begins with the simplest movements of small amplitude and gradually becomes more complex every day. A significant role in this is played by the use of special simulators for physical rehabilitation and special rehabilitation equipment, which is actively used in rehabilitation programs after spinal injuries, stroke, traumatic brain injuries and in other cases.

The most relevant today is rehabilitation after endoprosthetics with replacement of the hip, knee, shoulder and elbow joints. The main tasks of rehabilitation therapists during the patient’s recovery are:

• relief of postoperative inflammation, swelling and pain;
• restoration of the muscular-ligamentous apparatus that moves the joints;
• correct and reliable fastening of the prosthesis components in the bone through a special set of trainings;
• prevention of complications associated with endoprosthetics surgery.

If you refuse or delay physical and medical rehabilitation for a long time after joint replacement, this can lead to negative consequences:

• dislocation of the head of the prosthesis;
• developing a habit of an unnatural position of the limb and its incorrect movement, which can also cause the development of pain and inflammation in the joint area;
• bone fracture near the prosthesis;
• development of the inflammatory process in the nerves near the artificial joint.

An early start of movement while maintaining a safe load regime on the installed components of the endoprosthesis is the main principle of the work of rehabilitation therapists in Moscow!

Description of the procedure

Our center’s specialists have developed an effective program that includes the following procedures:

• a course of physiotherapy sessions, for example, myostimulation. By influencing the nervous system and musculoskeletal system, motor activity is gradually restored,
• physiotherapy. Aimed at increasing muscle strength and returning to physical activity,
• manual or hardware massage. Accelerates blood circulation for rapid tissue regeneration and bone fusion,
• Exercise therapy on special simulators. Exercises stimulate the muscular system.

When you visit a physiotherapist, first of all, the doctor examines the joint and assesses its condition. Taking into account the clinical picture, the type of endoprosthetic joint and its location, the doctor selects the optimal set of activities. It is recommended to begin the recovery course as early as possible.

The main directions of rehabilitation in the sanatorium:

• Rehabilitation after knee replacement.
• Rehabilitation after hip replacement.

In addition to working to restore the motor activity of the joint, our patients undergo measures to correct the impaired functions of other interested body systems.

We monitor the proper healing of the postoperative wound, control the pace of recovery, and draw up an individual treatment program for each specific case, taking into account not only the patient’s age and weight, but also the body structure and level of physical fitness.

In the Zagorskie Dali sanatorium near Moscow, modern treatment is provided, thanks to which it is possible to minimize complications even in the case of complex endoprosthetics.

Efficiency

Having completed the full course of therapy, the early postoperative period ends after 10 days. At this time, the goal of rehabilitation is to prevent the development of negative consequences and deterioration of the patient’s condition.

Further rehabilitation continues for 2-3 months. During this time, the patient notes improvements, expressed in a decrease in pain, restoration of mobility, and rapid tissue regeneration. It is worth noting the psychological factor. Our specialists always encourage you, putting you in a positive mood, because the success of the operation depends on the patient’s wishes.

Terms of rehabilitation

The average duration of the rehabilitation period is 3 months. If the pain persists, you can continue to walk using a cane. You can start active training after 8-12 months.

But even after complete recovery, you must follow some rules throughout your life:

• do not bend the joint more than 90 degrees;
• regularly perform moderate physical activity;
• do not quit training after full recovery;
• visit a doctor regularly;
• stop smoking and drinking alcohol;
• Healthy food;
• Do not take any medications or herbs without consulting your doctor.
