ASSESSMENT OF THE LIFE QUALITY OF PERSONS WITH KNEE JOINT INJURIES AFTER SURGERY INTERVENTION

Abstract

The article presents the results of an assessment of the quality of life after staged rehabilitation of patients with combined injury of the knee joint. The study included 78 patient-athletes - men aged from 18 to 35 years (average age 27.8±0.47 years), who had a history of surgical interventions on the knee joints to restore the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscectomy. A comparative analysis in 2 observation groups in the dynamics of rehabilitation therapy according to the psychological component of health showed that in the main group the greatest dynamics of the component were determined by role (emotional state) and social functioning. Less pronounced dynamics were detected in vital activity and mental health indicators.
