Filter by:It is a prospective randomized controlled trial. In this project, it is aimed to examine the effect of telerehabilitation-based instrumental and noninstrumental respiratory exercise program on lung capacities. For this reason; - Contributing to the literature by comparing the effect of breathing exercises with and without instruments on lung capacities, - It is aimed to be a resource for the effective use of respiratory exercise, which has a high effect on lung capacities, in treatment. In addition, with the data obtained, it is aimed to decide and apply the exercise that is more effective in the treatment of respiratory diseases quickly. Socio-demographic data will be questioned by using the Demographic Data Form; participants, age, gender, height, weight, marital status, smoking and alcohol use, presence of disease, whether they are included in a different exercise program, dyspnea, severe nausea and vomiting. The cases will be randomized into two groups: non-instrumented breathing exercises group and instrumented breathing exercises group. The physical activity status of the individuals participating in the study will be questioned using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) at the beginning and end of the study. Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) will be used to measure the lung capacity of the participants. Instrumented breathing exercises will be performed for 8 weeks, 2 days a week with the telerehabilitation program, 3 days a week as a home program, 5 days a week in total, starting with 1 set of 15 repetitions and the program will progress with progression. Diaphragmatic breathing and thoracic extension exercises will be applied as non-instrumented breathing exercises. For 8 weeks, 2 days a week with telerehabilitation method, 3 days a week as a home program, 5 days a week in total, 1 set of 10 repetitions for each exercise and the program will progress with progression. At the end of 8 weeks, all evaluations of the participants in both groups will be repeated.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of online self-management program and on-site task-related training for people with early stage Parkinson's disease. people with early stage of Parkinson's disease (age range: 45-70 years) will be randomly assigned into the following three groups: control group, online self-management program group and on-site task-related training group.The control group will receive no treatment during the experimental period. For the other two groups, participants will receive the intervention twice a week, one hour per session and 12 sessions in total. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. the potential impact of motor and non-motor symptoms on activity participation and quality of life for people with early stage of Parkinson's disease (PD). 2. compare and examine the the effectiveness of online self-management program and on-site task-related training for people with early stage Parkinson's disease on activity participation and quality of life.
Total arthroplasty (THA) is the treatment of choice for severe osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Following this type of intervention, a multidisciplinary rehabilitation approach allows you to reduce pain and improve the ability to carry out activities of daily living (ADL), but it is not clear what the optimal rehabilitation program is. Recently, the use of telerehabilitation has increased over the years. Specifically, in treatment of patients following THA surgery, telerehabilitation is able to give similar results to the treatment performed in person terms of pain and function. The aim of this study is to verify whether telerehabilitation associated with In-person treatment is comparable in terms of pain, recovery functionality and patient participation and satisfaction, compared to those provided by rehabilitation alone in the presence of patients undergoing THA surgery.
This randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to investigate the effect of long-term, interactive home-based cycle-exercise on patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) after a COPD exacerbation requiring hospitalisation. The investigators aim to investigate if patients can maintain or improve the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation in terms of walking distance, intensity of COPD symptoms, health related quality of life and Quality Adjusted Life-Years. Participants will cycle on a pedal-exerciser in the comfort of staying in the participants' own home, whilst getting visual feedback from the 4Mvideo app. The 4Mvideo technology is a Danish designed software system, where users can cycle forward a recording of a cyclist by treading on a pedal-exerciser, thereby getting some of the experience of a real-life cycling trip at home. The investigators will compare the clinical outcomes and daily activity levels with that of a control group consisting of COPD patients.
Nonspecific chronic neck pain (NCNP) is defined as non-specific neck pain lasting more than three months. It is a very common disease that causes a great obstacle in the daily life activities of individuals in the society. Many conservative treatment methods are used in the treatment of this disease. Among these treatment methods, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is the most widely used modality due to its low cost and many advantages. There are 4 types of TENS: Conventional, Low frequency (Acupuncture), Short intensity, Combined or Burst TENS. Conventional TENS is generally used in the treatment of chronic pain. Tele-rehabilitation is defined as the delivery of rehabilitation services via online telecommunication technologies. Tele-rehabilitation overcomes many problems such as long distance, traffic, transportation difficulties, high cost, high demand in the public health system, etc. and its popularity is increasing with the developments in technology and telecommunications. The risks and difficulties of accessing physical treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic have demonstrated the necessity of Tele-rehabilitation. Therefore, Tele-rehabilitation is widely used in physiotherapy as well as in many other fields. Although TENS application is widely used in the treatment of nonspecific chronic neck pain in physiotherapy clinics, there are few studies on Tele-rehabilitation, there are no studies comparing their effectiveness compared to each other in this field. In our research, it is planned to investigate and compare the effectiveness of TENS, which is an easily applied electrotherapy method, and Tele-Rehabilitation, an online rehabilitation tool. In this study, the staff of Nezahat Keleşoğlu Faculty of Health Sciences and Seydişehir Vocational School of Health Services and patients with neck pain who come to the physiotherapy unit of Meram Medical Faculty Hospital will be included in the study. As a result of the power analysis, (48) patients are planned to be included. Patients will be divided into three as Tele-rehabilitation group and TENS group and Control group. Patients will be evaluated before and after treatment and training.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare patient-reported and performance-based outcomes of patients followed with a standard exercise program based on telerehabilitation and patients followed with action observation therapy program added to a standard exercise program based on telerehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: - [What is the effect of action observation therapy added to a telerehabilitation-based standard exercise program on patient-reported outcomes after total knee arthroplasty surgery?] - [What is the effect of action observation therapy added to a telerehabilitation-based standardized exercise program on performance-based outcomes after total knee arthroplasty surgery?] Participants will be divided into three groups by computer-assisted randomization method: Group 1: home exercise with information leaflet group, Group 2: information leaflet + telerehabilitation-based standard exercise program group, Group 3: information leaflet + telerehabilitation-based standard exercise program + action observation therapy group. Patients in the second and third groups will be followed up with the telerehabilitation method accompanied by a physiotherapist for 30 minutes 3 days a week for 6 weeks after discharge. The third group will receive a standard exercise program 3 days a week and 15 minutes of action observation therapy via video conferencing.
Objective: To investigate the effects of core stability exercises (CSE) added to the standard exercises (SE) on patient-reported (PR) and performance-based (PB) outcomes in patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) followed with telerehabilitation (TR). Methods: The 42 patients who participated in the study were randomly divided into 2 groups [group 1: SE (n= 21), group 2: SE + CSE (n= 21)]. The first 8 weeks of the post-discharge follow-up were performed by videoconference-based TR under the supervision of a physiotherapist and the last 4 weeks by telephone-based TR. Functional level was assessed by Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), pain intensity by Visual Analog Scale (VAS), affected knee range of motion (ROM) by Copenhagen Knee Range of Motion Scale (CKRS), quality of life by Short Form-12 (SF-12) and World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), lower extremity muscle strength by 30-seconds Chair-Stand Test and locomotor performance by Stair Climb Test. Assessments were performed with TR preoperatively and at the first, second and third post-op months.
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common chronic rheumatic disease of unknown etiology in childhood. JIA covers several different subgroups and is predominantly manifested by peripheral arthritis. Joint swelling, effusion, tenderness, pain in JIA; causes functional limitations, fatigue and quality of life disorders. Chronic inflammation limits the patient's daily activities and productivity. Self-management is defined as an individual's ability to manage their symptoms, treatment, lifestyle changes, and the psychosocial and cultural consequences of health conditions. Good self-efficacy and coping skills reduce the health and financial burden on the individual as well as on health care, benefiting society in general. Telerehabilitation is the dissemination of rehabilitation services through communication technologies. In the literature, it is seen that the studies on internet-based exercise applications are limited. In the studies, people were encouraged to physical activity with an internet-based application and the benefits of being active were given within the scope of patient education, and it was reported that the level of physical activity effectively improved as a result. It can also increase endurance, has been reported to be safe and feasible. In our study, unlike the literature, the self-management program and exercise applications will be integrated into the internet-based telerehabilitation method, based on the fact that the exercise practices in JIA are effective in disease management and improvement of symptoms. Therefore, in our study; the effectiveness of telerehabilitation-based exercise methods to be applied additionally synchronously and asynchronously to self-management education in children and adolescents with JIA on pain, disease activity, functional status, fatigue, quality of life, psychosocial status, self-efficacy and satisfaction will be examined and compared.
The goal of this randomized controlled study was to compared six-week online yoga program with six-week face-to-face yoga program on diaphragm thickness, body balance and physio social status in young female individuals. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does online yoga have similar effects compared to face-to-face yoga in terms of diaphragm thickness? - Does online yoga have similar effects compared to face-to-face yoga in terms of body balance? - Does online yoga have similar effects compared to face-to-face yoga in terms of psychosocial status such as level of anxiety and social media addiction? Participants completed the experimental steps of ultrasound scanning, balance testing and the scales questioning psychosocial status before and after 6-week online yoga program. After the pandemic conditions normalized, new participants were invited, and a 6-weeks face-to-face yoga program was applied and the same tests were applied before and after the program. As a control group, individuals whose physical activity levels were monitored and who did not participate in any exercise program were evaluated twice, six weeks apart. The researchers compared these three groups and examined whether there were differences between the groups in terms of the investigated parameters.
The study was planned to investigate the effectiveness of home therapy method due to the difficulties experienced by caregivers of individuals with special needs in accessing physiotherapy and rehabilitation services for chronic neck and back pain.
