The induced bioelectrical activity of the muscles of the lower extremities in patients with gonarthrosis

Abstract

Comparative evaluation of functional lower limb muscle status depending on gonarthrosis severity and technique of surgical intervention was performed using the results of stimulation electromyography (M-responses). Data obtained showed that the changes of evoked bioelectrical activity in lower limb muscles depend to a great degree on the initial status (gonarthrosis grade) than on the technique of surgical intervention.
