WHO indicates that the purpose of actions aimed at strengthening public health protection is to ensure conditions under which people can remain healthy, able to strengthen health and well-being, and prevent deterioration of health. However, in the basic documents, there is no place for health-preserving physical culture and health-improving competencies of a person in the system of general efforts. The aim of the work is to reveal the need and place of health-preserving physical culture and wellness competencies of a person as a condition for ensuring and spreading a high level of public health in Ukraine. Material and methods. The study was organized at the Dnipro State Academy of Physical Culture and Sports, the Ukrainian State University of Science and Technology, the National Technical University “Dnipro Polytechnic” (all in Dnipro) and the Zaporizhzhia State Medical and Pharmaceutical University. The used methods of theoretical research were: study and generalization of data from domestic and foreign official and literary sources, as well as abstraction, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction. Results. Conceptual principles and didactic technology of physical education of a non-professional physical education (NpPhE), with an emphasis on strengthening the general cultural component of the educational component “Physical education” in higher education, aimed at eliminating existing shortcomings. Provided with pedagogical technology, NpPhE contributes to the formation of the building blocks of one’s own health. And the system of effective pedagogical mechanisms of NpPhE is significantly different from the provision of information about health, which is the subject of modern valeology. In this context, the development of conceptual directions of creative valeology is relevant, as a means of supporting a person’s creativity in a safe effect on health. Namely, the formation in institutions of higher education of the builders of their own health. Conclusions. A system of pedagogical mechanisms is proposed, which is significantly different from just providing information about human health as a benefit/harm of influences and actions, which is what valeology is focused on. This is a prerequisite for the formation and development of creative concepts of modern valeology based on the improvement of cultural and practical components of the educational component “Physical education” in the conditions of a higher education institution for specialists who take care of building their own health from specialties related to civilians. In conditions where the majority of their graduates are engaged not in physical, but intellectual work, the further implementation of approaches related to professional-applied physical training for professional activities is something that it is time to abandon.

The aim of the work to determine the dynamic characteristics of overall physical condition indicators in 11–13-year-old female weightlifters after injuries of the musculoskeletal system at the training stage of physical therapy. Materials and methods. The experimental population comprised 45 female weightlifters (aged 11–13 years, qualification ‒ I, II, III junior categories) from SСYSSOR “Spartak” of the Zaporizhzhia regional council, CYSS “Kolos” of Kamiansko-Dniprovskyi district of Zaporizhzhia region, Berdiansk CYSS of Zaporizhzhia Region City Council, and students of Kharkiv Regional Higher School of Physical Culture and Sports majoring in weightlifting. Patients after musculoskeletal injuries were divided into two groups: main (MG, n = 22) and control (CG, n = 23). Patients of the control group underwent standard treatment (generally prescribed in medical establishments). For main group patients in the training period, the program of physical therapy has been developed and implemented, with the current control of overall physical condition indicators. Research methods. Analysis of literature and sources of information presented on the Internet; clinical observations; pedagogical testing; methods of mathematical statistics. Results. Analysis of overall physical condition indicators of athletes of 11–13-year-old weightlifters of the main and control groups during the recovery and training periods allows us to state that main group athletes have higher growth rates, and dynamic characteristics of their overall physical condition are linear with constant focus on improvement. According to the indicators of “running 30 m, s” test, the following growth indicators were recorded: main group athletes (-0.48), control group athletes (-0.29), the difference (-0.19). According to the indicators of “standing long jump, cm” test, the following growth indicators were recorded: main group athletes (+14), control group athletes (+5), difference (+9). According to the results of the test “flexion-extension of the arms in the supine position, n” the following indicators were obtained: main group athletes (+4.44), control group athletes (+2.86), difference (+1.58). Conclusions. Intensification of the training process and forcing the training of junior athletes in weightlifting are the leading factors that result in injuries of the musculoskeletal system, multisystem pathologies and the development of pathomorphic phenomena. Indicators of overall physical condition of weightlifters aged 11–13 allow us to state that main group athletes have a higher difference in growth, and the tendency of their overall physical condition has a linear focus on improvement. Indicators of overall physical condition of control group athletes are nonlinear, according to “running 30 m, s” and “standing long jump, cm” the test results.

The purpose of the work is to evaluate the effectiveness of a comprehensive program of physical therapy in patients after surgical reconstruction of the Achilles tendon. Materials and methods. Subjects population comprises 58 patients (aged 34–57 years), including 39 (67.24 %) males and 19 (32.76 %) females, who were up to the surgical restoration of the Achilles tendon. All patients were divided into two groups: the main group (MG, n = 29) and the control one (CG, n = 29). Research methods embraced a review of scientific literature presented on the Internet; experimental research of ascertaining and formative orientation; pedagogical observation; goniometry, plantodynamometry, modified Romberg test; methods of mathematical statistics. Results. After surgery, the angle of plantar flexion was better (P < 0.01) in MG patients compared with CG patients (4 weeks): 29.1 ± 1.19° and 28.1 ± 1.13°. However, statistically significant differences between MG and CG patients in subsequent measurements were not found (P > 0.05). The percentage values of the load distribution on the operated extremity had improved by the final measurement date (16 weeks), which reduced the difference in the load distribution on the extremities to 9.20 ± 3.09 % in MG patients and up to 14.60 ± 2.98 % in CG patients (Me (25 %; 75 %) ) ‒ 8 (6; 12) % and 16 (12; 18) %). The indicators of the final performance of Romberg test were significantly better in MG patients, making 11.4 ± 2.13 s, which is 2.5 seconds better than in CG patients (P < 0.01). Conclusions. Dynamic characteristics of plantar flexion were restored by the following means: adaptive physical exercises and corrective gymnastics, different walking exercises, exercises with fitball, exercises on an exercise bike and step platforms, hydrotherapeutic exercises, orthopedic shoes, physiotherapeutic methods, and massage. The proposed comprehensive program is effective and can be used for post-surgical physical therapy in patients diagnosed with Achilles tendon rupture.

The purpose of the work is to evaluate the degree of dynamic recovery of the movements of the operated limb during the second period of rehabilitation by means of physical therapy in patients who underwent hip replacement and strengthening of the capsule-ligament apparatus with a polypropylene mesh. Materials and methods. A retrospective study of case histories, radiographs, and laboratory data of 47 patients requiring restoration or strengthening of the hip capsule was performed, of which primary endoprosthesis was performed in 26 (55.3 %) patients, and revision in 21 (44.7 %). Among the studied patients, 27 patients (57.4 %) were male, 20 patients (42.6 %) – female. The average age of the patients was 57 years (from 20 to 86 years). Results. Based on the analysis of the results of the study, we note that the quality of life of patients in both groups, the overall subjective condition of the joint, the volume of movements of the operated limb, as well as the evaluation of clinical and functional outcomes of treatment on the Harris Hip Score (HHS) directly correlate with performance preoperative exercises of a therapeutic nature and adherence to the postoperative rehabilitation program of physical therapy. Such correlation is more significant at 12 months after surgery, at 24 months of observation the indexes of the operated hip joint in the two groups of patients were not significantly different: 65.3 % of the observation group and 52.2 % of the comparison group at 12 months after surgery and 91.3 % and 81.0 % after 24 months, respectively. Conclusions. The use of polypropylene mesh to strengthen the posterior capsule ligaments of the hip joint enhances the functionality of the operated limb and restores patients overall, accelerates the physical rehabilitation process after discharge from the hospital. The expediency of careful preoperative preparation of patients and active management of the postoperative period (complexes of therapeutic exercises, informing of patients) is proved.
