Abstract
this article presents the results of a study of the effectiveness of complex personalized proprioceptive training for the prevention of knee injuries in the elderly. The study involved 87 patients aged 65-78 years, divided into the main and control groups. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the development of an integrative methodology for assessing and restoring proprioceptive function, combining biomechanical analysis, electromyography and three-dimensional modeling of movements to create individual training programs. A correlation was established between the latent period of muscle activation and the risk of knee injury, which forms a new approach to preventive strategies. The results show a significant improvement in proprioceptive sensitivity, postural control and optimization of knee biomechanics in the main group. Modern demographic trends, characterized by an increase in life expectancy and an increase in the proportion of the elderly population, highlight the need to develop effective methods for injury prevention among older people. The problem of preventing knee joint injuries, which significantly reduce the quality of life of elderly people and require significant medical and social resources for treatment and rehabilitation, is of particular importance. A 61.2% decrease in the frequency of falls and a decrease in cases of knee joint trauma from 11 to 3 cases were shown, which indicates the high efficiency of the developed technique and confirms the presence of significant neuroplasticity potential even with age-related degenerative changes in the proprioceptive system.
