Seven types of physiotherapy interventions were identified while analysing all studies that provided any rehabilitation information, i.e., weight-bearing exercises, ROM exercises (ROM), strengthening exercises, gait training and walking exercises, split or orthosis usage, and education. The form of application of weight-bearing exercises varied on intensity and period of treatment for weight-bearing permission depending on the study [10,34,36,39,44,[50][51][52]56,[59][60][61][66][67][68][69][70][72][73][74][75]77,80,81,[84][85][86]89,91,92,94,95,98,[100][101][102][103][105][106][107]109,112,115]. The quantification of load during progression of weight-bearing was described as gradual, partial, or total. ...
