Conclusions
THA
Patients with unilateral hip OA who underwent primary uncemented THA showed a significant improvement in the WBR, WBA on the operated side, and ODA 12 days after THA when using LOCOBOT, compared to the control group. Furthermore, in the LOCOBOT group, the WBA on the operated side, WBR, and ODA significantly improved from before THA to 12 days after THA. These findings indicate that the LOCOBOT is an effective tool for improving WBR and balance ability in the early postoperative period following THA. The use of LOCOBOT during rehabilitation early after THA can facilitate the acquisition of independence in ADL early after THA and help to optimize the efficiency of medical care.
