ABSTRACT

The propose of this study was to investigate the effects of squat exercise using a reformer on muscle strength, range of motion, and gait in hip joint replacement patients. This study was conducted on 20 patients hospitalized at a rehabilitation hospital in G City. As an intervention method, the experimental group performed squat exercises using a reformer, and the control group performed squat exercises, 7 times a week for 2 weeks. In the within-group comparison of the reformer group, there was a significant difference in hip flexion, extension, and abduction strength (p<0.05). There were significant differences within the group in the range of motion of hip extension and abduction and gait in the Reformer group (p<0.05). In comparison between groups, significant differences occurred in hip extension strength, hip extension, abduction range of motion, and gait (p<0.05).
