Filter by:This study was planned to determine the mobilization process and factors affecting this process in patients who underwent open heart surgery and were admitted to the cardiovascular surgery intensive care unit.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of exoskeletal robotic therapy and conventional exercise therapy in incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is exoskeletal robotic therapy effective in improving functional ambulation in SCI? - Is exoskeletal robotic therapy effective in enhancing Activities of Daily Living in SCI? Participants treated with either: - Exoskeletal robotic therapy along with conventional exercise therapy, or - Only conventional exercise therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of balance therapy with an overground gait trainer in incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is balance therapy with an overground gait trainer effective in improving functional ambulation in SCI? - Is balance therapy with an overground gait trainer effective in enhancing Activities of Daily Living in SCI? Participants treated with either: • Overground gait trainer along with conventional exercise therapy
Correcting of the lack of regularity in steps is a key component of gait rehabilitation in Parkinson's disease. The proposal is to introduce adaptive spatial auditory cueing (ASAC) based on verbal instruction "lengthen the step" automatically delivered when the stride length decreased below a predetermined threshold. The present study compared the effect of usual rhythmic auditory cueing versus ASAC used during a walking training in Parkinson's disease.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Leg Lateral Reach Test to measure thoraco-lumbo-pelvic segment mobility in adolescent tennis players. The fact that the test is valid and reliable for tennis players will contribute to monitoring trunk rotation flexibility in athletes, comparing them bilaterally, and revealing the exercise training necessary to improve performance.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of muscle energy technique versus Maitland's mobilization on shoulder pain and disability after neck dissection surgeries.
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of hippotherapy simulator on trunk control, balance and gait in children with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy and its relationship with quality of life.
Researchers aim to compare demographic characteristics, prosthesis type, functional capacity, and quality of life between faller and non-faller transtibial amputees.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of Activate Bailando, a 6-week community-based dance class offered in Spanish to older adults. 20 older adults in the Madison, Wisconsin area who are enrolled in Activate Bailando will complete a pre-and post-program test within 10 days for program start and completion.
Distal radius fractures (DRF) are the most common upper extremity disorders encountered in clinical practice. With an understanding of the mechanics of distal radius fractures, surgical intervention, and bone healing, the therapist can modify the therapy program according to the patient's individual needs. The therapeutic process is begun in the crucial stage of bone healing during fracture immobilization. By addressing edema reduction and early range of motion of the uninvolved joints, most problems can be avoided before cast or fixator removal. Rehabilitation following the immobilization period should focus on regaining wrist movements provided that earlier problems have been addressed properly. During the rehabilitative process, the therapist can incorporate scar management, modalities, joint mobilization, active and passive range of motion, splinting, and strengthening to maximize the patient's functional result. Massage and mobilization techniques are used in the treatment of DRF due to their analgesic effects. The painless mobilization with movement technique (MWM, developed by Brian Mulligan) is a manual therapy method applies to correct the limitation of movement in the joint and to relieve pain and functional disorders. Many studies have shown that MWM technique provides faster and momentary painless joint movement compared to other physical therapy modalities. The patient group with DRF has a large place in the general population and long treatment processes cause both labour loss and economic loss. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effectiveness of MWM technique in cases with distal radius fractures.
