Abstract

|
|
Background: The advantages of robotic therapy have recently been attempted several times in the re- habilitation of total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients.
Therefore, this study also aims to report a case of how robot therapy affects the function of THA patients due to developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).
Design: Case Study.
Method: This study used the A-B-A' design. Period A is before robotic therapy, period B is robotic therapy, and period A` is after robotic therapy. The subjects performed physical therapy and occupational therapy for five days each during the baseline period A and A`. In intervention period B, robotic therapy was performed for five days along with the baseline intervention. This study was conducted for a total of fifteen days. The subjects' sit to stand (STS), timed up and go (TUG), and 10 metre walk (10MW) were evaluated.
Result:: STS and TUG were significantly improved in periods B and A' compared to period A (p<0.05), and STS was significantly improved in period A' com- pared to period B (p<0.05). 10MW showed no sig- nificant improvement in periods B and A' compared to period A.
Conclusions: This study confirmed that robot therapy was an effective intervention in improving the function of women in their 30s who underwent THA due to DDH. In the future, a study comparing the control group should be performed.
