Filter by:According to the most up-to-date knowledge, there is no Turkish comprehensive and validated instrument to assess stroke survivors' unmet needs in the longer term. So, this study aims to translate and adapt the LUNS into Turkish and examine its psychometric properties in survivors living at home after a stroke. Our hypothesis in this study is: - The Turkish Longer-term Unmet Needs after Stroke Questionnaire (T-LUNS) is a valid tool for assessing the unmet needs of stroke patients in the Turkish population.
The study aims to inform the subsequent large-scale clinical trial focused on using telerehabilitation techniques and technologies to improve upper limb function and quality of life.
The STRIVE Before Surgery Trial evaluates three pragmatic elements (recruitment, adherence, and follow-up) associated with participating in a home-based multimodal prehabilitation program supported through an online platform. Half of the participants will be randomized into the prehabilitation group, while the other half will be randomized into the control group.
The purpose of this study is to work with a community engagement group to develop and pilot a protocol for a virtual reality exergaming program for children with special needs at a high school.
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.
Physical inactivity is an increasing problem in the general population in society. However, in people with disabilities, inactivity is even more frequently reported. Physical activity on prescription (PAP) is a well-established method to enhance physical activity. The prescribed physical activity can be activities such as walking, cycling, swimming, or gardening, and should be performed over a longer period. In children with cerebral palsy, PAP has shown to be feasible to increase participation in physical activity and to reduce sedentary behaviour, and the habilitation services in the Region of Skåne have decided to offer PAP to all children and youth with disabilities. It is of great importance to study these interventions when applied on a broader group of patients than previously studied. The aim is to study the effects of an individualised and health-enhancing intervention in physically inactive people with autism, intellectual and physical disabilities. Also, the cost-effectiveness of PAP will be studied. 60 physically inactive children, aged 8- 17 years, and 20 adults, with autism, intellectual or physical disability will be included. The participants are recruited by their clinical physiotherapists, who also will be carrying out the PAP-intervention. The self-selected physical activity/activities may either be a physical activity organized by a club and/or an everyday activity such as walking a dog or riding a bicycle to school. Each participant fills in an activity logbook. Motivational interviewing will be used to support the participants. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure can be used to identify what activities the participants are motivated to do, and to detect changes in the participants' perception of their performance of the activity. Quality of life will be monitored. Physical activity will be measured through the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and a movement monitor (accelerometer). Study specific questionnaires will be filled in regarding costs and background information. Data on health care use of the participants will retrospectively be collected and studied using the health care database in Region Skåne. Data will be collected at 3 months prior to the intervention, just before the intervention starts, when the intervention is finished, and at 6, 12 and 24 months after the intervention. The study has been approved by the Swedish Ethical Review Authority.
The objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy of varied medical and procedural therapies used to treat pain after surgical amputation of a limb. The primary outcome will be assessment of pain severity at rest and with movement as measured by pain scores on Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) 0 to 10, where 0 is not pain and 10 is the worst pain possible, taken on post-operative day 1, day 7, 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, and 1 year (+/- 3 days at each time point).
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a psychotherapy (non-medication) treatment, Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicide Prevention, in reducing suicide ideation and attempts for people with physical disabilities.
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?
Chronic pain and depression or low mood are often experience by women who age with or into disabilities. Due to various factors women with disabilities often experience this cycle of pain and depression. Both of these conditions can be debilitating and lead to declines in health. Treating these conditions simultaneously, particularly , in older adults can be complicated due to side effects, risks of poor access to pain management and mental health care , and complications from other co occuring conditions. In order to address this cycle in older women with disabilities the investigators are testing the Women in Pain Reduction through Improved Mood and Empowerment (PRIME) study. The PRIME intervention includes four in person visits by a nurse to the women's homes where the participants set goals regarding pain and depression and the nurse helps the participants strategize ways to meet these goals. The second component of the study will be eight group sessions virtually with other participants in the study. The group sessions will be led by a clinical psychologist who will engage in Acceptance Commitment Therapy with the women.
