Overview

Case study evaluates physiotherapy's impact on mobility and recovery after ORIF in an intertrochanteric fracture patient, suggesting effective rehabilitation methods.

Key Points

  • Significant improvements in hip and knee joint mobility were noted after physiotherapy treatment, enhancing recovery.
  • Hip flexion improved to 90° following a structured 4-week physiotherapy protocol for intertrochanteric fractures.
  • Assessment included a combination of early mobilization and progressive exercises for better functional outcomes.
  • Systematic physiotherapy following surgical fixation may greatly improve quality of life and independence.
