Abstract
Objective: To analyze the impact of early functional rehabilitation training on the lumbar mobility and quality of life of patients after lumbar disc herniation surgery. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted, including 60 patients diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation who underwent surgery, admitted between January 2024 and November 2024. Patients were divided into a control group and an experimental group based on whether they received early functional rehabilitation training. The control group (n=30) received routine care, while the experimental group (n=30) received early functional rehabilitation training combined with routine care. The improvement in lumbar mobility and quality of life between the two groups was compared. Results: After intervention, the increase in lumbar flexion, lateral bending, rotation range of motion, and quality of life in the experimental group was greater than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Early functional rehabilitation training can improve lumbar mobility and quality of life in patients after lumbar disc herniation surgery.
