Filter by:Cross cultural analytical study to translate Modified fatigue impact scale MFIS) in Urdu language. Along with the translated version by evaluating its validity and reliability among the patients of traumatic brain injury. No such study has been previously conducted in Pakistan which translate this scale in Urdu and follows the proper cross- culture adaptation.Condition or disease: Traumatic brain injury. Convenient sampling technique would be used.
Background: Stroke puts important economic and social loads on the society and was reported to be the most important reason for disability throughout the world. Purpose: The present study aims to experimentally examine the effect of aromatherapy and foot massage on happiness, sleep quality, and fatigue levels of patients with stroke. Material and method: The present study is a randomized clinical study with a control group. Participants were randomly divided into three groups (foot massage + aromatherapy, aromatherapy, and control). The study was carried out with 91 patients diagnosed with stroke. The data were collected using Sociodemographic Status Survey, Oxford Happiness Questionnaire, Piper Fatigue Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS (IBM SPSS Statistics 24) package program. The results were interpreted using frequency tables and descriptive statistics. Foot massage group was given 30min foot massage sessions (3 days per week) for 4 weeks, whereas foot massage + aromatherapy group was given lavender oil inhaler during the foot massage.
An experimental study to assess the Effectiveness of Intradialytic exercise on reduction in Fatigue and Muscle Cramps and Improvement in Muscle Strength among CKD patients undergoing Maintenance Haemodialysis at dialysis unit of ILBS. Objectives Primary objective: 1.To evaluate the effectiveness of the intradialytic exercise on reduction in fatigue and muscle cramps and improvement in muscle strength among patients undergoing hemodialysis at dialysis unit of ILBS. Secondary objectives: 1. To find out the association of mean fatigue score with demographic & clinical variables of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis after intradialytic exercise. 2. To find out the association of mean muscle cramps score with the demographic & clinical variables of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis after intradialytic exercise. 3. To find out the association of mean muscle strength score with demographic variables & clinical variables of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis after intradialytic exercise.
The trunk is a kinetic link that facilitates the transmission of force and angular moments between the lower and upper extremities, provides proximal stability for distal mobility, and maintains balance by keeping the body weight within the support surface.While trunk muscle strength is important for maintaining daily living activities, trunk muscle endurance plays an important role in preventing injuries by stabilizing the spine during long-term physical activity and sports activities (2).Decreased trunk muscle endurance can result in fatigue and low back pain. Low back pain is a major public health problem worldwide. In modern industrial society, the number of low back pain patients is increasing due to sedentary lifestyles, lack of exercise and working conditions.The lifetime prevalence of low back pain has been reported as 84%.80% of low back pain is nonspecific, that is, muscle weakness and ligament-related reasons for unknown reasons(3,4).Increasing the endurance of the waist muscles with exercise is used in the treatment of low back pain. From this point of view, while planning our study, we wanted to evaluate whether the decrease in trunk muscles is associated with low back pain and fatigue in young adults.
The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of massage therapy on fatigue and sleep quality in patients with heart failure in the intensive care unit. The study design was a randomized control trial and repeated measurements. A convenience sampling was used to recruit heart failure patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) II-III from the intensive care unit of a regional teaching center. In addition to routine turning, patients in the experimental group received daily back massage intervention for 10 minute, once a day; the control group maintained usual care. The data collection included three time points: baseline, 4th and 7th day after the intervention. Research tools include basic personal data, Piper fatigue scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality scale.
The purpose of the Health and Energy through Active Living Every Day (HEALED) intervention, is to examine the effect of a web-based intervention on changes in device-measured physical activity (light and moderate-to-vigorous intensity aerobic) and sedentary behavior. The purpose of this study is intended for survivors of a cancer with a 5-year survival (at Stage I, II, and III) of at least 45% that has a strong level of evidence for association with physical inactivity according to the 2018 PA Guidelines Advisory Committee Report (breast, colon, endometrium, kidney, bladder, multiple myeloma). In line with social cognitive theory behavior change techniques, participants will be provided information and skills necessary to be more physically active and less sedentary after a cancer diagnosis. New materials will be disseminated biweekly through a website open only to participants, and include at-home exercise demonstration videos, research news, discussion boards, success stories, infographics for exercise recommendations, etc.
The main objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a nutritional intervention (olive leaf extract) combined with a specific training session (MICT or SIT) on PDH activation (as well as other protein expressions) and exercise-induced muscle fatigue.
This research is to explore the effects of supplementing Lactobacillus paracasei PS23 to reduce fatigue and improve physical fitness after exhaustive exercise.
The study is a randomised controlled trial that aims to evaluate whether carbohydrate loading pre-endoscopy can improve patients' overall satisfaction and is not associated with negative impact on endoscopic quality or increased complications. A questionnaire will be completed by participants prior to endoscopy.
In this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of acupressure on fatigue in nursing students.
