About

The aim of this study was to assessment on the interaction of spatial and temporal gait parameters and gait asymmetry in patients with Lumbar Disc Herniation (LDH) before and 15 days after surgery.

Full description

The participants were divided into LDH and healthy control groups. The analysis of the spatiotemporal gait parameters was performed using the "Win-Track" gait analysis platform system for two groups. In addition, the analysis of spatiotemporal gait parameters of 60 participants who had the planned lumbar discectomy surgery, was tested before and 15 days after surgery. The pain intensity of the patients was recorded by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) immediately before performing the analysis. After then participants completed ten passes on the "Win-Track" Gait Analysis Platform at their self-selected walking speed. The arithmetic mean of the three flawless walking data was used for analysis. The gait symmetry index was used to calculate the walking asymmetry.

208 participants in 3 patient groups

Lumbar Disc Hernaition Group
Active Comparator group
Description:
The number of participants in this group is anticipated to be 153. The pain intensity of the patients was recorded by a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) immediately before performing the analysis. The patients were asked to continuously walk barefoot for ten times as straight as possible without any assistance on the Win-Track platform within the same day.
Treatment:
Other: All of the spatial and Temporal Gait parameters
Healthy Control Group
Active Comparator group
Description:
The number of participants in this group is anticipated to be 54. The participants were asked to continuously walk barefoot for ten times as straight as possible without any assistance on the Win-Track platform within the same day.
Treatment:
Other: All of the spatial and Temporal Gait parameters
Preoperative and Postoperative Group
Active Comparator group
Description:
The number of participants in this group is anticipated to be 59. The patients were asked to continuously walk barefoot for ten times as straight as possible without any assistance on the Win-Track platform within the same day, before and 15 days after surgery.
Treatment:
Other: All of the spatial and Temporal Gait parameters
