BACKGROUND: Diffused Axonal Injuries (DAI) are types of traumatic injuries that render the patients with dire consequences. A major obstacle that surfaces for therapists during the rehabilitation of such patients is their functional recovery along with their movement patterns. Hypertonicity is major complication that poses as a menace to the healing process of the patient. Closed Kinetic Chain (CKC) exercises
PURPOSE: To establish that patients that undergo CKC exercises as part of their mobility training show better functional outcomes.
METHODOLOGY: An experimental study was conducted in which it was observed that patients that underwent closed kinetic chain exercises showed better outcomes in terms of gait and functional recovery compared to patients that did not perform CKC exercises as part of their treatment regime. Modified Dynamic Gait Index (mDGI) and Barthel Index (BI) were used to measure the functional outcome. A total of 60 patients were incorporated in the study. Mean age of the patients was 30.35 and male to female ratio was 29:31.
RESULT: Patients belonging to Group-B showed better outcomes when compared with patients of Group-A.
CONCLUSION: The study concludes that incorporating CKC exercises in the treatment regime leads to better outcomes in patients affected with DAI
