Complex assessment of the post-operative state and life quality in patients operated for herniated disc

Journal Title: New Medicine - Year 2014, Vol 18, Issue 1

Abstract

The authors assessed the health, family and social state of 29 patients following operation for herniated disc at the 3rd Rheumatology Rehabilitation Department of the National Institute of Rheumatology and Physiotherapy, Budapest, Hungary. Other 21 patients were included randomly owing to lower back pain. Out of the 29 patients only 5 received substantial medical rehabilitation within 3 months. Only 2 patients became symptom-free for longer duration, and only 2 returned to their work. Early adequate treatment, operation in due time and complex rehabilitation accompanied by adequate information and education is the only method of choice to accomplish adequate results.
