Filter by:In Physiotherapy movement is a central concept and a clinical tool. Different methods are developped for analysing and assessing movement patterns offering patients a more functional way in moving and enable performance development i daily activities and sports. The aim of this focusgroup study is to illustrate physiotherapists' experiences using the method JEMS working with patients in rehabilitation in Primary Care. Possible benefits of the study: There is a need for in-depth knowledge of colleagues' experiences and experiences about what it is like using the JEMS concept in the clinic. The results can be used as a discussion basis in a counseling context, be developmental for the individual physiotherapist and a guidance when different methods for movement analysis and treatment / training are to be chosen when implementing in clinical rehabilitation activities.
A professional flamenco dancer will perform a ZAP 3 test, a sequence of single strikes of the feet performed continuously for 15 sec. Kinetic and kinematic studies will be recorded during the performance.
In view of sparse data of precise definition, risk factors, natural history and management of bladder perforation following Transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT). We aim to correlate the relation between the site, depth and extent of resection with bladder perforation. Also, correlation between vertical depth, horizontal extent of resection and recurrence and progression of tumor
This study aims to demonstrate the use of a digital video analysis method to evaluate harmonicity of running gait, through an holistic approach. Furthermore, it explores the association of running gait harmonicity with running velocity and level of training and with running injuries risk .
The project will design and develop a game for teaching safety as a way to reduce childhood injury. To evaluate the effectiveness of the designed game, a randomized controlled trial (RCT) following the CONSORT RCT guidelines will be conducted. All students in Primary 4-6 (equivalent to US Grades 4-6) from the participating school will be invited to join the trial, which will be then randomized into the game or health education group. All students in the game group will be invited to play the designed game with instructions provided, while those in health education group will receive a comprehensive package on safety information. The intervention will last 4 weeks, with the safety knowledge and behaviours, and psychosocial difficulties of the participants being assessed before and 1 and 3 months after the intervention. The effectiveness of the intervention in achieving the proposed targets will be estimated using linear mixed models.
This study evaluates the frailty and the health adverse events in the population of the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging. It will be used the Centre of Excellence Self-Administered questionnaire (CESAM) which assesses frailty of older adults by providing a score and a of frailty in 4 levels.
The objective of this study is to investigate potential early alterations in the DNA methylation profile after severe trauma and to investigate if the early marks persist.
Study Design: Evaluation of the psychometric properties of a translated, culturally adapted questionnaire. Objective: Translating, culturally adapting, and validating the Italian version of the Dance Functional Outcome Survey (DFOS-IT), allowing its use with Italian-speaking dancers to evaluate their musculoskeletal health and wellbeing inside and outside Italy. Summary of Background Data: Musculoskeletal injuries are a phenomenon of huge prevalence and has been a major focus within peer-reviewed literature since the 1980s. Growing attention is devoted to standardized outcome measures to improve interventions for injured dancers. A translated form of the DFOS, the only existing outcome measure that focus on the unique functional requirements of dancers, has never been validated within the Italian dancers population.
The purpose of this study is to develop and test a VR training system that integrates GFT AI with virtual obstacle scenarios that, when compared to a sham-VR training system, is hypothesized to increase neuromechanical and perceptual-motor fitness, decrease collision frequency and impact forces for soccer athletes, during a single training session and also when assessed at approximately 1 week and 1 month following training.
This study explores the utility of a tablet computer-based, individually-tailored application called Computer Intervention Authoring Software (CIAS) in the Emergency Department for discharge education on proper child car restraint safety. The investigators hypothesize that tablet-based, individually-tailored discharge instructions are more effective than current standard, one-size-fits-all, printed discharge instructions. This is a randomized, controlled, non-blinded trial of of children age 0-21 years old in the Emergency Department. Patients will be randomized to receive either (a) a brief tablet-based questionnaire followed by standard, paper discharge instructions or (b) a brief tablet-based questionnaire followed by the intervention - CIAS, a tablet-based computer program. One week after discharge, participants in both groups will receive an automatic text message and/or email message with a link to a web-based survey that will assess: knowledge of appropriate car restraints and whether the parent/patient engaged in any behavioral changes regarding child car restraint. These variables will be compared between the control and intervention groups.
