Effect of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Therapy Combined with Ultrasound on Knee Rehabilitation after Tibial Plateau Fracture
Objective:To explore the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy combined with ultrasound on knee rehabilitation after tibial plateau fracture.Methods:A total of 60 patients with tibial plateau fracture admitted to Liaoyang Central Hospital from October 2021 to January 2024 were selected as the study objects.They were divided into a study group and a control group according to random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was treated with ultrasound,the study group was treated with neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy combined with ultrasound.Knee function,swelling degree,pain degree and muscle strength were compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment,the knee function scores of both groups were higher than before treatment,the study group was higher than that of the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).After treatment,the knee swelling degree of both groups were shorter than before treatment,the study group was shorter than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).After treatment,the pain degree scores of both groups were lower than before treatment,the study group was lower than that of the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).After treatment,the excellent and good rate of muscle strength in the study group was 93.33%,which was higher than 73.33%in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:Neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy combined with ultrasound can improve the muscle strength and knee function of patients with tibial plateau fracture after surgery,reduce the degree of pain and swelling.
