Filter by:The Activity Diversity Questionnaire (ADQ) was developed to assess activity diversity. The questionnaire consists of 20 items rated on a four-point Likert scale. This questionnaire defines activity diversity using Shannon's entropy and is the first assessment tool of activity diversity validated for validity and reliability. Important data can be obtained from this questionnaire, such as the relationship between the health status of older adults and their activity diversity. There is no scale in Turkish that can be used to evaluate the activity diversity. The aim of our study was to investigate the relevance of the Activity Diversity Questionnaire for Turkish older adults and the effectiveness of its clinical use.
A reliability and validity study for the cross culturally adapted and translated version of Upper limb musculoskeletal index questionnaire into Urdu language. This can be used for the reporting of upper limb musculoskeletal disorders including hand, shoulder and arm pathologies, carpel tunnel syndrome, osteoarthritis etc.
Osteopenia is a clinical term to define the declined Bone Mineral Density (BMD) as per the normal reference values but not low enough to meet osteoporotic diagnostic criteria. A Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) bone scan is used to diagnose decreased BMD. Osteopenia is, as described by the World Health Organization (WHO), a score ranging from -1 to -2.5, whereas Osteoporosis is diagnosed with values less than - 2.5. The risk of a decrease in BMD doubles as a woman goes into Menopause. The objective of this study will be to determine the effects of Kinect-based virtual reality training on BMD, fracture risk, physical function and Quality of life in postmenopausal women with Osteopenia. The aim of the present study is to translate the ECOS-16 Questionnaire into Urdu Language along with validation of the translated versions by evaluating its validity and reliability in the Postmenopausal women of Pakistan with Osteopenia or Osteoporosis and understanding Urdu Language. No such study has been previously conducted in the Pakistan region which translates the specific questionnaire and follows the proper cross-culture adaptation protocol.
3D CAM into Turkish validity and reliability on postoperative delirium will be test as a prospective diagnostic study. After approval by Dr. Edward R. Marcantonio, (15) will translation and back-translation. The original 3D-CAM will translate into Turkish by two medical doctor .The two translational versions will be discussed and merged into a final version. Back translation will performed in regardless of any information from its original version by another two medical doctor. Both the translated and back translated versions will sent to Dr. Marcantonio for approval. Eligibility and the documentation of consent will be confirmed at the preoperative visit. During this visit, patients will provide demographic and historical medical information, including information regarding medication usage. The Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) will be performed. Delirium assessment Delirium assessment with the 3D-CAM Before the study period, all researchers will participate online training program on 3D CAM. Delirium will be evaluated using the 3D CAM every each morning and evening (18:00-20:00) for postoperative 3 days. Delirium assessment with the DSM-5 The psychiatrist investigator who was blinded to the 3D-CAM assessment results, will evaluate the patients according to the criteria of DSM-5 within 3 min after the 3D-CAM assessment.
The investigators think that "The Active-Q: Physical Activity Questionnaire" will help physiotherapists and other health professionals in the field and in the field to evaluate individuals' physical activity by revealing their energy consumption values. Therefore, it was aimed to make this scale available to Turkish healthcare professionals by conducting the Turkish validity and reliability study.
The high risk of infants are defined as having a negative environmental and biological factor history, where these factors can lead to neuromotor development problems. It is a heterogeneous group of premature babies born under the age of thirty-seven weeks, with a low birth weight term or infants with developmental retardation due to various reasons. Risk factors in preterm infants include perinatal asphyxia, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), broncho pulmonary dysplasia (BPD), hyperbilirubinemia, infection. alcohol syndrome, muscle tone disorders, low birth weight, hydrocephalus and microcephaly. These babies, especially preterm infants with low birth weight, may encounter a neurological sequence such as Cerebral Palsy (CP), epilepsy, hearing and vision loss, mental retardation, language-speech, behavioral problems and learning difficulties. CP is the most common disease of childhood, with the possibility of occurrence in 2-3 / 1000 live births.Today, the effectiveness of various methods has been proven to make early diagnosis of CP. One of these methods is the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Evaluation (HINE).
In clinics, many scales have been developed to examine daily living activities and function in children with idiopatic toe walking. "The Idiopatic Toe Walking (ITW)" was developed in 2010 by Cylie M.Williams, contains 21 items which measure medical, birth & developmental history and assessment. The aim of the investigator's study was to investigate translating the ITW scale and using it in clinics reliably and valiably with a Turkish version of ITW in children with idiopatic toe walking.
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate test-retest reliability of a standard protocol on the Biodex dynamometer in older adults. In addition, the test-retest reliability and validity of an experimental measure of knee extension strength will be assessed in older adults.
