title: [Gait analysis in patients with total hip endoprosthesis. Part II: Pre- and postoperative gait analysis].
abstract: 35 patients have been examined before the implantation of a total hip replacement, about 7 days postoperatively and again after 12 weeks by means of the electro-ichnograph EKIG-3 of the Riga Institute of Orthopaedics and Traumatology. Before the hip-joint substitution the normal values could not approximately be attained. The step duration has postoperatively increased, and it has decreased to pre-operative values by the time of the follow-up examination. The best results were obtained concerning the change of the trunk deviation in the frontal plane. The hip mobility measured passively was remarkably better after the operation and almost reached normal values. Regarding the results it should above all be taken into consideration, that the most important fact for the patient is the alleviation and elimination of pain, respectively.
