ESTUDIO SOBRE LAS CARACTERÍSTICAS DE LA ORGANIZACIÓN MOTRIZ DE LOS MÚSCULOS DE LAS EXTREMIDADES INFERIORES EN ATLETAS CON LESIONES TRAUMÁTICAS DE RODILLA

ABSTRACT

Introduction

Traumatic injury to the knee joints and their adjacent muscles is common among athletes, and their organizational characteristics require thorough analysis.

Objective

Investigate the motor organization of muscles in the lower limbs of athletes with traumatic knee injuries.

Methods

A systematic survey of the peculiarities of motor organization in the muscles of physically healthy athletes was preceded by an analytical survey of the peculiarities of this organization among athletes with traumatic knee injuries interested in medical treatment to restore the functional condition of the knee joints and perform active sports activities.

Results

The characteristics of muscle motor organization in traumatic injuries and their recovery methods were determined, as well as the formation of a sequential understanding of the recovery process of knee joint injuries for athletes representing various sports.

Conclusion

The results of this scientific study and the conclusions formulated based on them are of great importance for athletes concerned with restoring functional status after knee joint injuries sustained during the competition and in the training process. Evidence level II; Therapeutic studies - outcomes research.
