Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare the effects of a 12-session telerehabilitation program based on Specific Neck Exercises (SNE) with Spinertial to a control group on range of motion, cervical proprioception, and posture in subjects with forward head posture, post-intervention, after one month of follow-up, and after two months of follow-up.
Physical exercise is an effective strategy to maintain functional ability and improve debilitating symptoms in the elderly.In addition to functional enhancement, exercise is considered a cornerstone for enhancing cognitive function in debilitated older adults with cognitive impairment and dementia.The investigators evaluated the effect of the Vivifrail exercise intervention on the degree of debilitation in elderly hospitalized patients after venous hemolysis in acute ischemic stroke
Spondyloarthritis, notably ankylosing spondylitis (AS), represents a chronic rheumatic condition typified by persistent back pain and stiffness. It constitutes a substantial portion of diagnoses within rheumatology units and exhibits a higher prevalence among males. Diagnosis relies upon comprehensive clinical evaluation, including patient history, physical examination, and adjunctive radiological assessments, with genetic predisposition, particularly the presence of the HLA-B27 antigen, playing a significant role. Management strategies encompass a multidisciplinary approach, with physiotherapy emerging as a cornerstone therapeutic modality. Various exercise interventions, particularly those supervised by trained professionals, demonstrate efficacy in improving pain, stiffness, and overall functional capacity. Furthermore, patient education plays a pivotal role in enhancing treatment adherence and optimizing outcomes by aligning patient expectations with therapeutic goals. The evolving landscape of spondyloarthritis management underscores the necessity of further research into multimodal treatment approaches, particularly in integrating novel interventions such as electrophysical agents. By elucidating the mechanisms of action and exploring their synergistic effects, clinicians can refine treatment protocols and ultimately enhance the quality of care provided to individuals living with spondyloarthritis.
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, and is associated with obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Physical activity and lifestyle interventions are among the most recommended treatments for individuals with MASLD. In this RCT, we will evaluate the effect of combined exercise training "strength and aerobic training" versus "strength and high intensity training (HIIT)". The main outcome parameter is the severity of liver steatosis. Patients will be recruited at the fatty liver clinic of the UZ Gent.
Objective: The aim of this study is to compare neuromuscular and aquatic Exercise programs on fall risk and physical function in geriatrics. Methods: As a result of the power analysis (G-Power), 36 participants are planned to be included in this study Block randomization will be used to divide participants into 2 groups, each with at least 18 participants: Group 1 (NE Group) and Group 2 (AE Group) (Randomizer.org). NE (Neuromuscular Exercise) group will participate in a 12-week exercise program consisting of sensorimotor system training, postural stability and control, global and local joint stabilization, balance training, muscle strength, breathing, and functional movement patterns.AE (Aqıuatic Exercise) Group will participate in an aquatic exercise program, which includes warm-up, mobility and strength, stretching, and cooling exercises in a 140 cm deep pool with a water temperature of 32 °. Data will be collected using the International Physical Activity Survey Short Form (IPAQ-SF), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), Geriatric Pain Measure, Optojump-next (Microgate, Bolzano, Italy), 6-minute Walk Test, 30-second-Sit-to-Stand Test, Four Step Square Test, Berg Balance Scale, Fear of Falling Avoidance Behavior Questionnaire. Practice Implications: This current study will contribute to the understanding of how neuromuscular exercises affect falls and physical function in geriatrics.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about breast cancer patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does Aerobic Dance During Chemotherapy Improve Cognitive Function in Breast Cancer Patients？ - Does the efficacy of aerobic dance differ from fast walking of equal intensity？ Recruited patients will be randomly assigned to three groups: (1) aerobic dance group, (2) fast walking group, and (3) usual care group. The aerobic dance and fast-walking groups participated in supervised exercise lasting 50 minutes thrice a week for 12 weeks. The goal of this study's findings is to develop practical strategies for managing breast cancer-related cognitive impairment.
The study is randomized and single blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah international university Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A and group B through sealed envelope method by non probability convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in group A will receive Progressive eccentric exercises. Group B will receive Bodyweight exercises.
type of study: clinical trial the goal of this study is to learn about action observation therapy for cerebral palsy population. The main question it aim to answer is: Is action observation therapy effective on balance in children with cerebral palsy? Twenty-four children who met the inclusion criteria in the study will be randomly divided into two groups as the training group(action observation group) and the control group.
Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether active remote symptom monitoring and management via a smartphone app utilizing electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) can improve adherence to prescribed outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation exercises among postsurgical lung cancer patients. Eligible patients will use the app for perioperative care and be randomized to an intervention group receiving ePRO-based symptom monitoring with clinician feedback or a control group receiving ePRO without feedback. The primary outcome is rehabilitation exercise adherence rate over 1 month after discharge. If proven effective, the app-enabled remote rehabilitation model can be scaled up to enhance recovery for more postoperative patients.
The lateral ankle complex sprain is the most prevalent musculoskeletal injury among the general population and athletes and is associated with long-term pain, disability, and high healthcare costs. One of the complications of a lateral ankle sprain is the development of chronic ankle instability (CAI). Conservative treatment is the initial therapeutic option for patients with CAI, however, the best strategies are not yet clear. Clinically, a new invasive technique has appeared, known as echoguided Percutaneous Neuromodulation (EPNM). To date there are no studies showing the efficacy of the technique in patients with CAI together with the combination of a neuromuscular exercise program. Participants: Volunteers and adults, from the group of students of the Gimbernat University School with a history of ankle sprain and physically active who meet the inclusion criteria. Study variables: Self-administered ankle function scales (Cumberland ankle instability tool: CAIT and foot and ankle ability:FAAM measure Scale), objective measurement of function in the lower limb (Test countermovement jump: CMJ and Side hop Test:SHT), measurement of isometric strength of the ankle musculature, measurement of dynamic balance (Test star excursion balance), range of motion measurement (Ankle Dorsiflexion) and pain measurement (Numeric pain rating scale: NPRS Scale). Procedures: After carrying out the assessment, the participants will be randomized to participate in a neuromuscular exercise intervention (control group) or in a neuromuscular exercise intervention together with an application of EPNM in the common peroneal nerve (control group). experimental). The duration of the intervention in both cases will be 4 weeks, where in the control group there will be 2 sessions per week of exercise and in the experimental group 2 sessions per week of exercise plus an application of EPNM. Objective and hypothesis: The main objective of the study will be to compare the short- and medium-term effects of both interventions in relation to the study variables to be measured. The investigators hypothesize that those patients who receive neuromodulation combined with the neuromuscular exercise program will have greater improvements.
