Influence of appropriate lower extremity orthotic management on ambulation, pain, and fatigue in a postpolio population.

Abstract:

:A major functional problem for the postpolio patient is the loss of ambulation ability. A retrospective study of lower extremity orthotic management for ambulation was made of 104 subjects with histories of paralytic poliomyelitis who received treatment and evaluation in a postpolio clinic. Thirty-six patients (35%) had a remote history of a surgical arthrodesis of the ankle. Fifty-six subjects (54%) reported using lower extremity orthoses after the onset of their polio. At initial postpolio clinic evaluation 19 subjects (18%) were using lower extremity orthoses, and all of these patients had a remote history of orthotic use. After clinical evaluation, a new lower extremity orthosis was recommended for 37 subjects (36%). Nine of these patients had never used orthotic devices. New orthoses for a previously braced limb or an additional orthosis for a previously unbraced limb were prescribed more frequently in previously braced patients (28 of 56 vs 9 of 48, p less than 0.02). Seventy-two percent of subjects with ankle fusion required new orthoses; 19% of those without fusion required one (p less than 0.001). A questionnaire returned by 81 subjects (78%) indicated that appropriate orthotic prescription significantly improved the ability to walk, increased perceived walking safety, and reduced knee and overall pain (p = 0.04 to 0.008).
