Abstract

“Locomotive syndrome” is defined as a condition associated with restriction in one’s ability to walk or lead a normal life due to a dysfunction in one or more of the parts of the locomotion system, including the muscles, bones, joints, cartilage or intervertebral discs. This syndrome especially refers to individuals who have come to need nursing care services because of problems with the locomotive organs, or those who have conditions which may require them to need such services in the near future. Recent epidemiological studies revealed that the one-fourth of elderly individuals who require special assistance or nursing care have locomotive disorders in Japan. Osteoarthritis of the knee (knee OA) and hip (hip OA), and osteoporosis and spinal canal stenosis due to spondylosis are three major locomotive disorders that cause elderly individuals require special assistance or nursing care. In this review, we focus on the effects of knee and hip OA on the lives of elderly individuals and the recent advantages in clinical research on the pathophysiology and management of these diseases.
