Filter by:Pulmonary rehabilitation programs are an important part of lifelong therapy in the treatment of patients with cystic fibrosis. Although the possible benefits of exercise are known, physical activity levels and participation in exercise are low in patients with cystic fibrosis. There are barriers such as lack of time, demoralization, lack of motivation, and transportation problems. Although group exercises are an approach that increases participation and motivation, it is not considered a very suitable method because it increases the risk of cross infection in patients with cystic fibrosis when performed face-to-face. Telerehabilitation programs, which are increasingly used in chronic respiratory diseases, show similar results with clinical rehabilitation programs. Telerehabilitation programs, the effects of which have been examined in different disease groups in recent years, on patients with cystic fibrosis are limited in the literature. Group exercises that can be given with the telerehabilitation method may be a good approach for patients with cystic fibrosis, eliminating possible infection transmission. The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to compare of effects of telerehabilitation based individual and group exercises on functional exercise capacity, muscle strength, respiratory functions, balance, anaerobic power, quality of life, and adherence in children with cystic fibrosis. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is there a difference between functional exercise capacity, muscle strength, respiratory functions, balance, anaerobic performance, quality of life and compliance with treatment between telerehabilitation based group exercises and telerehabilitation based individual exercises in patients with cystic fibrosis? Participants will be randomized into three groups: Group 1: They will be divided into groups of four and included in the exercise training for eight weeks with telerehabilitation. Group 2: They will be individually included in exercise training with telerehabilitation for eight weeks. Group 3 (control group): They will continue their routine treatment (medical treatment, airway cleaning techniques, physical activity counseling).
Currently 37.9 million people are living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) around the world (UNAIDS, 2018). Even with antiretroviral treatment (ART), the virus enters the central nervous system and can affect the following structures: amygdala, hippocampus, thalamus, parietal, frontal, temporal regions, orbitofrontal, cingulate, motor and sensory cortex; generating cognitive, behavioral and motor alterations, up to HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) and occasionally HIV-associated dementia (HAD). Few clinical studies have been conducted using computerized cognitive rehabilitation programs to counteract neuropsychological alterations. The aim of this project is to explore the feasibility of a cognitive stimulation program (CSP) developed to strengthen cognitive domains identified as impaired through a neuropsychological assessment in asymptomatic HIV+ patients adherent to ART, with the purpose of improving their quality of life and mood disorder.
The high prevalence of children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD's; 5-29%) combined with the low accessibility and availability of child development services in Israel raises an urgent need to develop innovative, effective and accessible models of intervention. Teleintervention is an innovative and practical option for providing developmental services, however the evidence for its effectiveness among this population are insufficient. Study goals are: (1) to adapt an occupation therapy intervention for remote delivery; (2) to assess its feasibility (in terms of adherence, treatment fidelity and satisfaction with care); (3) to assess its efficacy in promoting personal functional goals, participation in daily activities and QOL in children aged 5-8 years with NDD's. We will conduct a controlled study without randomization using mixed methods. Participants will include 40 children with NDD's and functional difficulties in daily life that will assigned to study group (teleintervention; n=20) or control group (in person intervention; n=20). The intervention program will include 12 weekly sessions based on an evidence-based approach (CO-OP), that will take place in videoconference or in personal meetings formats. The main outcome measures will include standard assessment tools aim to assess participation and QOL. Feasibility will be assessed in terms of adherence, fidelity and satisfaction with care using a descriptive statistics and feedback interviews. Effectiveness will be evaluated by group X time interaction using a repeated measure MANOVA. To examine the variables that predict adherence and success in treatment, linear regression will be used. In addition, a thematic analysis of the qualitative information will be performed.
The aim was to observe the effect of the music integrated phonological awareness program on preschool cochlear implant users and to compare the phonological awareness skills of the study group with the control group before and after the online training.
Pulmonary rehabilitation, which includes respiratory muscle training, is effective in improving the functional status of patients with various types of the respiratory system diseases, including bronchial asthma, interstitial lung diseases or lung transplant patients. However, availability of pulmonary rehabilitation is limited in the Czech Republic. Nowadays even more due to the Covid-19 pandemic. A suitable instrument of increasing its accessibility is telerehabilitation using modern technologies. The main goal of this project is to evaluate the patients' functional status after completing a standardized cycle of pulmonary rehabilitation focused on respiratory muscle training conducted as telerehabilitation sessions and compare the effect of this intervention with a different group of patients who will undergo an education session led by a trained physiotherapist followed by self-directed exercise according to an exercise brochure.
Telerehabilitation (TR) became more popular during COVID-19 pandemic due to social isolation and curfew. Exercise is one of treatments for patients with rheumatic diseases that are known to have low levels of physical activity.
The aim of this clinical trial is to develop and test the effectiveness of a smartphone app-based self-management program based on exercise and pain education for police officers and firefighters with chronic low back pain.
This study aims to determine the effects of asynchronous and synchronous exercises, which are added to ergonomics awareness education, on musculoskeletal disorders, physical activity and quality of life.
Due to its complexity and variability, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) requires multidisciplinary and multidimensional interventions. SUPER (in Italian: Sistema Unitario in una Piattaforma Riabilitativa ed Educativa) is an Italian digital platform, implemented to facilitate collaboration between families, health services, and schools and to promote personalized intervention for children with ASD. The research protocol, aimed to test SUPER's feasibility and usability, foresees the enrollment of 12 ASD children in the Experimental Group (EG) and 12 ASD children for the Control Group. All families, teachers, and clinicians will perform usual rehabilitative and educative interventions, but the EG will use SUPER, in addition to ordinary programs. The feasibility and acceptability of SUPER will be assessed through usability scales and questionnaires realized ad hoc for the purpose. At baseline and established endpoints, ASD patients will be evaluated with different assessment tools.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune disease that progresses with progressive neurological dysfunction and affects the central nervous system. A multidisciplinary rehabilitation approach is crucial in the systematic and supportive treatment of MS. Exercise training is a therapeutic approach that minimizes functional capacity loss and slows progression in MS. Randomized controlled studies have shown that exercise training improves physical fitness, reduces motor fatigue, and improves the quality of life and psychological state in individuals with MS. When the literature is examined, it is seen that popular exercises such as pilates, yoga, and Tai-Chi are used in addition to aerobics, strengthening, endurance, and stretching exercises in the treatment of individuals with MS. In order to eliminate the economic burden, which is one of the exercise barriers of individuals, and to gain exercise habits, home exercise programs should be expanded. When the literature is examined, it is emphasized that the importance of home exercise programs is emphasized, and it is very important in the treatment of patients who cannot attend an exercise program, especially by going to any center for various reasons. However, there is little information on the effectiveness and content of home exercise programs in patients with MS. From this point of view, this study is capable of supporting the missing part of the literature.
