Abstract

The work is devoted to the qualitative and quantitative assessment of physical rehabilitation in dogs. The relevance of the study is due to the need for a reliable comprehensive assessment of rehabilitation measures to expand the use of rehabilitation in treatment protocols for dogs. The animals in the experimental group had a history of neuropathies of various etiologies and underwent a course of physical rehabilitation with an assessment of the functions of the neuromuscular apparatus. Quantitative assessment was carried out using an instrumental electrophysiological research method - stimulation electroneuromyography (ENMG). Qualitative assessment of the indicators of statodynamic functions was assessed by the following indicators: the presence and degree of lameness, goniometric indicators of joints, assessment of gait and static postures, quality of the support function of the limbs, quality of reflex reactions. The study showed a reliable change in electrophysiological indicators in neuropathies of various etiologies and, at the same time, in the functions of the neuromuscular apparatus in dogs. At the same time, an improvement in the indicators of statodynamic functions was noted. Such results indicate the presence of a direct correlation between the improvement of statodynamic clinical parameters and the improvement of electrophysiological parameters recorded during the ENMG study. At the same time, the quantitative digital assessment using electroneuromyography is more reliable than the qualitative assessment of statodynamic function parameters, which largely depends on the subjective view of the assessor.
