Filter by:The aim of this study is to understand the effect of adapted functional training on the physical fitness, functionality and quality of life of individuals with SCI after social distancing due to COVID-19. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Are the participants of the functional training program adapted for people with spinal cord injury show better results in functional capacity in post-test evaluations training period, when compared to your results in the functional training pré-period? - Is adapted functional training capable of improving cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength and body composition? - Can the perception of quality of life be influenced by functional training? Participants will be evaluated through questionnaires and field tests, such as: - Functional Capacity (battery of motor tests related to functional independence and Motor Assessment Scale), - Physical fitness (handgrip test; medicine ball throw; Illinois agility and 12-minute displacement) and Quality of Life (WHOQOL-DIS).
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the Mulligan mobilization technique (MMT) on pain intensity, joint position sense (JPS), kinesiophobia, and disability level in individuals with nonspecific neck pain. A total of 34 female individuals with nonspecific neck pain were included in the study. Pain intensity, JPS, kinesiophobia, and disability levels of all participants were evaluated before and after the 3-week intervention. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. In the first group, the participants received MMT by the physiotherapist twice a week for 3 weeks, and self-mobilization techniques as a home exercise program. The second group was trained only self-mobilization techniques.
In the proposed research, we will elucidate the comparative effectiveness of standalone physiotherapy (PT) vs. PT augmented with a self-guided, app-based Healthy Minds Innovation wellbeing program (PT+HMI) aimed at cultivating awareness, connection, insight, and purpose for people with chronic low back pain (CLBP).
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in inspiratory muscle training on cardiorespiratory capacity, pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, sports skills, and quality of life of wheelchair rugby athletes. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Are the wheelchair rugby athletes show better results in cardiopulmonary assessment tests in safety and effort, in the post- inspiratory muscle training period, when compared to their results in the pre-inspiratory muscle training period? - Is inspiratory muscle training capable of increasing ventilatory capacity at rest and during exertion? Participants will be evaluated through questionnaires, laboratory and field tests, such as: - Pulmonary function (spirometry), - Inspiratory muscle strength (manovacuometry), - Cardiorespiratory capacity under exertion (cardiopulmonary exercise test), - Wheelchair rugby specific skills (Beck Battery) - Quality of life (WHOQOL-DIS) .
Disability in daily living activities (ADL) is a typical issue among nursing care residents. The goal of this study was to look at the geriatric syndromes that cause incapacity in nursing home residents.
Research problem and specific questions: Health-related habits influences mental and physical health. Still, screening and treatment of health-related habits, which can help to remedy health problems, is not done at all or very superficially. National guidelines emphasize the importance of prioritizing health-related habits, but there is a lack of implemented models. To solve this, the investigators have developed a transdiagnostic, interprofessional material intended for several care settings. Study 1: Is LEV a feasible intervention in different healthcare contexts? Study 2: A functional roadmap to healthier habits: A thematic analysis of themes form the functional analysis of unhealthy and healthy lifestyle behavior in adults with disabilities This study will use data from study 1.
To evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle strength on women with non-specific low back pain
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of occupational therapy-based instrumental activities of daily living intervention on stress levels, quality of life, and participation in people with disability. The participants were recruited from the Etimesgut Family and Life Center in Ankara. In this study, an individualized occupational therapy-based instrumental activities of daily living intervention were implemented for a total of 8 weeks, lasting 16 sessions, which included an intervention group (n=9) and a control group (n=9). Changes before and after the intervention were assessed with the Lawton-Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale, Waisman Activities of Daily Living Scale, Modified Mini-Mental State Examination Test, SF-36 Health Survey Questionnaire, Perceived Stress Scale, and Community Integration Questionnaire.
It has been reported that gait coordination changes in patients with chronic low back pain, walking slower, taking shorter steps and having asymmetrical stride lengths compared to their healthy peers. In addition to many factor cause gait dysfunction, sacroiliac joint dysfunction might be one of reason of these problems. A study examining the effects of sacroiliac joint dysfunction on gait and disability in individuals with chronic low back pain has not been found in the literature. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the gait parameters and disability of individuals with chronic low back pain and to reveal their relationship with sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationships between the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) height of the foot and clinical and radiological characteristics of knee osteoarthritis in adult patients 50 aged and over. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there any relationship between knee pain and disability in knee osteoarthritis and MLA height? - Is there any relationship between the radiologic severity of knee osteoarthritis and MLA height? - Is there any relationship between knee joint alignment in knee osteoarthritis and MLA height?
