The goal of this observational study or clinical trial is to know evaluate the effects of a modified Complete Decongestive Therapy protocol using the Godoy Method in the postoperative period following lipedema surgery. The main question it aims to answer are: - if the treatment is effective on pain reduction, edema resorption, mobility improvement in short term and follow-up at 90 days - if the treatment is effective on preventing complications of these participants after surgery Participants have been treated in the lasts years and authors recover information of the effects of the treatment. Researchers will compare sub-groups of participants depending on the number of physical therapy sessions received
The aim of this study will be to investigate the validity of the in-game performance measurements or scores as indicators of students'ER abilities.
Summary Introduction: Falls are involuntary events that cause loss of balance and hit the body on the ground or on another firm surface that stops it. 40% of people with various neurological disorders fall one or more times, and of all these, 21% suffer a fall-related injury. Objective and instrumented gait analysis is an important tool for estimating the risk of falls in patients. Objective: To describe the protocols used by physical therapist residing in Argentina when categorizing a balance problem within the framework of neurorehabilitation, vestibular rehabilitation, geriatrics and gerontology. Identify the barriers and facilitators self-perceived by physical therapist that make it difficult to weight deficiencies in balance. Method: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study of the online survey type will be carried out. The recommendations given by the Checklist for Reporting of Survey Studies will be used. The survey, which was created by the researchers of this study, will consist of 26 items divided into 4 sections. It will be aimed at all those physical therapist in Argentina who are dedicated to neurorehabilitation, vestibular rehabilitation, geriatrics and gerontology. The type of sampling used will be non-probabilistic by snowball, which will be done online through the SurveyMonkeyTM tool.
The objective of this study was to translate and culturally adapt the Occupational Balance Questionnaire (OB-Quest) and evaluate the psychometric properties of the translated version by validity and reliability testing.
Testing the validity and reliability of IdFAI
To develop a balance device that will work with the inertia sensor to quantitatively assess the balance of individuals and investigate the validity and reliability of the balance data of the device.
Chest pain is a very common reason for resorting to the call center. The etiologies are very varied, ranging from benign pathologies to some that may involve, in the short term, the vital prognosis such as Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). ACS is a partial or complete occlusion of a coronary artery that causes potentially irreversible myocardial pain unless prompt treatment is undertaken. ACS represents 120 000 cases per year in France and causes about 18 000 deaths. There is currently no support score for the assessment of chest pain. However, reducing the duration of management of ACS is essential in order to hope to reduce the associated morbidity and mortality. In 2016, SAMU45's team established a predictive ACS score for the assessement of chest pain in SAMU 45 (France) based on the prospective study of 1367 patients. Seven items significantly associated with this risk of ACS could be highlighted: age, sex, smoking, typicality (potentially constrictive chest pain radiating potentially to the shoulders and / or jaw) pain, inaugural character of pain (ie first episode of this type), presence of sweats and the physician's belief to be in the presence of an ACS. These seven variables make up the SCARE score. This had good internal discrimination (AUC at 0.81) and excellent calibration ("p" of Hosmer-Lemeshow at 0.74). This score makes it possible to stratify the risk of ACS, by using epidemiological elements but also the physician's belief, whose Negative Predictive Value (VPN) proved excellent. The objective of this new project is to confirm by an external validation via a multicentric study the robustness of this score and thus be able to consider its use in front of any chest pain regulated in France by a call center.
preoperative assessment of difficult airways are the subject of debate. Now, measuring the thyromental distance or evaluating the mallampati score, mandible protrusion or body mass index still not 100% specifically say anything. We compare 4 different video laryngoscopes for preoperative assessment of difficult laryngoscopy.
The aim of this mixed-methods-study is to develop and validate an algorithm to transform FIM (Functional Independence Measure) and EBI (Extended Barthel Index) into an ADL score (Activities of Daily Life) that can be used to compare outcome quality of rehabilitation clinics. The following steps are performed: 1. Development of an ADL-algorithms by experts 2. Validation of the ADL-algorithms in a quantitative approach 3. Finalization of the ADL-algorithms by experts based on study results
