Summary

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.

Detailed 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.
