This randomized, clinical, single-blinded, controlledstudywasinitiallyplannedtoinclude 35 patients diagnosed with tarsal tunnel who applied to Kütahya Health Sciences University, Evliya Çelebi Training and Research Hospital, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic.Patients aged 20-55 years who were diagnosed with tarsal tunnel syndrome by electromyography (EMG) in the last 6 months were included in the study. The patients were randomized into two groups using the computer-assisted randomization method. Tibial nerve mobilization and foot-ankle range of motion exercises will be given to the study group, and only foot-ankle joint range of motion exercises will be given to the control group. All the patients were evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Foot Functional Index (FFI), Neuropathic Pain QuestionnaireN (NPQ) and Tibial Nerve ultrasonography before the intervention and at the fourth week of intervention.
The trial is a prospective,multi-center, randomized and self-controlled clinical trial. The research plan will be implemented in a clinical trial center with the qualification of clinical trial agency, and 128 subjects will be planned to be included. Subjects signing the Informed Consent Form, meeting the trial conditions and all inclusion criteria and failing to meet any exclusion criteria will be included in the research. The trial device was Colon Capsule Endoscope System for colonoscopy(PC-I) manufactured by ANKON Technologies Co.,Ltd. while the comparator device was Capsule Endoscopy System(PillCam COLON2) manufactured by Given Imaging Inc. The main evaluation indicator is the excellent rate of image quality, while secondary evaluation indicators are the consistency rate of lesion detection, completion rate of colonoscopy, discharge time of capsule endoscopy, colon passing time and device performance evaluation. Safety evaluation indicators include adverse events(or Serious adverse events), device-related adverse events(or Serious adverse events) and device defects. In the end, the effectiveness and safety of Colon Capsule Endoscopy diagnostic system manufactured by ANKON Technologies Co.,Ltd. for capturing and viewing colon images clinically were verified according to the above indicator results.
Adapting the environment in which a child with Cerebral Palsy lives or adapting himself according to the environment facilitates independence in daily life activities. There is a need for practical performance tests to evaluate the gait adaptation of children with cerebral palsy in the clinic. However, no study has been found to evaluate gait adaptation in children with cerebral palsy. Therefore, the aim of the study is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the WALK test, which was previously developed for children with special learning disabilities, in individuals with cerebral palsy.
Brief behavioral treatment for insomnia (BBTI) is a new treatment direction for primary and comorbid insomnia; however, its treatment model has not been established in Taiwan. This study aims to establish the BBTI treatment model among insomniacs in Taiwan and to examine the immediate effects of nurse-led BBTI in adults with insomnia complaints. In this assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial, participants will be randomly allocated to the nurse-led BBTI experimental group, or sleep hygiene control group. Measurement outcomes are sleep parameters measured by the Chinese version of Insomnia Severity Index, Chinese version of Pittsburgh sleep quality index, and sleep diary. Questionnaires will be assessed in pretreatment, posttreatment, and one-month follow-up. We hypothesize that adults with insomnia complaints undergoing nurse-led BBTI will experience greater alleviations in sleep in comparison with participants in the sleep hygiene control group.
The purpose of this study is to explore the predictors of ICU admission of obstetric posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome.
Flexibility is the ability of a muscle to lengthen and allow one joint (or more than one joint in series) to move through a full range of motion (ROM).Adequate flexibility is important to maintain balance, agility and musculoskeletal function. A decrease in muscular flexibility does not only reduces functional level of individual but also causes musculoskeletal injuries. Loss of muscle flexibility or muscle tightness is decreased ability of a muscle to lengthen which results in decreased ROM,and for hamstring reduced flexibility is the inability to achieve more than 160 degree of knee extension while the hip is flexed at 90 degree. Muscle energy technique (MET) is an manual technique developed by osteopaths and is now used in many different manual therapy professions, to treat soft tissue, mobilize joints, stretch tight muscles and fascia, reduce pain and to improve circulation and lymphatic drainage. Eccentric training allows the muscle to elongate naturally, this elongation is achieved by having the subjects eccentrically contract the antagonist muscle to move the joint through the full available range in slow controlled manner.
To compare the effects of Thoracic manipulation and MET in relieving pain.in improving Range of motion and in improving functional disability.
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and Eating Disorders (ED) are severe and persistent disturbances that are associated with significant harm. These two disorders have many clinical similarities, including craving and behavioral loss of control. Recently, craving for food has been described in newly abstinent patients with SUD. the aim of the study is to verify the hypothesis of addiction transfer based on common neurobiological mechanisms between substance craving and food craving, that postulates that food craving would correspond to an attempt to regulate substance craving (or vice versa).
This clinical trial evaluates the impact of music interventions on caregivers of patients with memory disorders, Alzheimer's disease, dementia and related disorders. This study will follow caregivers of patients within the rehabilitation day care hospital "Memory and Frailty" (Hôpital de Jour de Réadaptation Mémoire et Fragilités), Sainte-Marie Paris Hospital.
