Abstract：
:This case study describes the rehabilitation of 10 active duty U.S. soldiers with exertional rhabdomyolysis. The pathophysiology of rhabdomyolysis is discussed. The initial management is concerned with accurate diagnosis and monitoring of laboratory values to prevent complications. Active and passive range of motion, strength, and induration were used as indicators of recovery. The goal of rehabilitation was to safely return patients to their basic training units without activity restrictions as quickly as possible. All 10 soldiers were able to pass the Army Physical Fitness Test at the end of their training cycle. For those patients with rhabdomyolysis who desire to return to a high level of function, close monitoring of exercise intensity appears to allow for a safe, expedient return to previous levels of function. This description of a rare disorder will increase awareness and stimulate discussion so that more specific guidelines for rehabilitation can be developed.
