Filter by:Background: The aim of this study was to compare the knee and ankle muscle architecture and plantar pressure distribution differences in knee osteoarthritis (OA) women with healthy women. Methods: Fifty women with knee OA (Mean age=52.11±4.96 years, mean BMI=30.94±4.23 kg/m2) and fifty healthy women (Mean age= 50.93±3.78 years, mean BMI=29.06±4.82 kg/m2) were included in the study. Ultrasonography was used to evaluate Rectus Femoris (RF), Vastus Medialis (VM), Vastus Lateralis (VL), Peroneus Longus (PL), Tibialis Anterior (TA), and Medial Gastrocnemius (MG) muscle thickness, pennation angle, fascicle length, and fat thickness. The plantar pressure distribution was evaluated using the Digital Biometry Scanning System and software (DIASU, Italy).
The objective of this study to determine the effect of mental imagery and task oriented training on Kinesiophobia in stroke patients. And to determine the association of Kinesiophobia with gait and balance in stroke patients. Patients will be divided into experimental and control group. Randomized participants will be allocated into control and experimental group. The experimental group will receive 20 minutes of MI training followed by 25 minutes of TOT for a total of 45 minutes, 5 days per week for 6 weeks.
Patients will be divided into 2 groups according to the random numbers table, and both groups will receive a conventional physical therapy and rehabilitation program and nutritional support. Afterwards, edema-reducing kinesiotaping will be applied to one group. The applied kinesio tape will remain on the patient for 5 days and will be taped again after 2 days without tape. In this way, taping will be done 3 times in total, once a week for 3 weeks. During this period, patients will continue their routine physical therapy program and measurements will be taken by the same researcher in the 1st week of treatment and 3 weeks later.
Decreased ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (DFROM) has been identified among the factors that increase the risk of lateral ankle sprain (LAS) in basketball players. Restoring the DFROM is important in restoring reduced functional abilities and reducing the risk of re-injury. There is evidence that talocrural joint mobilization improves DFROM, but studies investigating the effectiveness of different mobilization techniques are needed. Our study aims to investigate the effects of single-session Mulligan and Maitland talocrural joint mobilization methods on dorsiflexion joint range of motion, jumping performance, and kinesiophobia in elite basketball players.
Background: Kinesiophobia or fear of movement, is defined as an excessive and irrational fear of physical movement to avoid painful injury, harm or re-injury. The existing scales measuring kinesiophobia are thought to have some limitations (the difficulty of patients to understand and answer the questions, the presence of questions that are not suitable for the patient's condition). These questionnaires may not have specific questions enough to assess fear of movement in different patient populations. Aim: The aim of this study is to develop and validate the Turkish Atılım Kinesiophobia Scale. Material/method: In the first stage of the study, research on kinesiophobia was reviewed and a total of 38 questions were created for the scale. The questions were submitted to the opinion of 11 experts working in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation field. Then A total of 100 patients with acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain completed the Turkish Atılım Kinesiophobia Scale and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia.
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 & B through sealed envelope method by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive the strength training only. Group B will receive the mindfulness-exercise in addition to the strength training protocol.
The main objective is to update the diagnostic assessment of frailty by correlating several variables with the ultrasound image of the frail elderly patient. Secondarily, the investigators intend to collect and analyze data on functional capacity and quality of life variables on the evolution of musculoskeletal symptoms, as well as on pain and psychological variables. Similarly, it is intended to make a record of different profiles and subtypes of frail older adult patients to be stored in Big Data in order to establish therapeutic intervention plans that allow both the evaluation and treatment of patients.
The aim of this study is to detect the presence of kinesiophobia, which may affect treatment in stroke patients, and to have an idea about its relationship with kinesiophobia by examining factors such as balance, gait, pain and social participation level.
Due to the limited number of studies investigating the relationship between kinesiophobia, radiographic parameters, and clinical outcomes in patients with Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome (FAIS) in the literature, the aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between kinesiophobia and clinical parameters in patients with FAIS.
To investigate the reliability and sensitivity of the Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, and Pain Catastrophizing Scale in patients with chronic nonspecific neck pain undergoing multidisciplinary rehabilitation and to determine the most appropriate minimally clinically significant difference values in order to increase confidence in their use in clinical practice and research for this patient population. Therefore, the current study aims to evaluate the answerability and minimal clinical significance of the Turkish versions of the Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire, Tampa Kinesiophobia scale, and Pain Catastrophizing scales in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain.
