Filter by:Low back pain is an important health problem that is common in public and causes serious socio-economic losses. Low back pain that persists for more than 12 weeks is defined as chronic low back pain. The prognosis in patients with chronic low back pain is generally not good and it significantly affects the patient's daily living activities and workforce. In the clinical course of chronic low back pain, patients generally reduce some activities or avoid them altogether due to fear of pain or concern about worsening of the initial lesion. This fear is called "kinesiophobia", which is an important factor in the chronicity of low back pain and the resulting functional disabilities. Kinesiophobia causes loss of flexibility, decreased muscle performance, muscle wasting, and all of these lead to a decrease in social and physical activities, which perpetuates and aggravates the disability. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the frequency of kinesiophobia in chronic low back pain patients and age, gender, body mass index, educational status, occupation, pain intensity and disability, and to examine the effect of kinesiophobia on quality of life.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of kinesiophobia in multiple sclerosis and to investigate the effect of kinesiophobia on physical activity, functional status, quality of life and depression.
This study will compare functional outcomes after an arthroscopic Bankart repair between patients that underwent conventional arthroscopic Bankart repair rehabilitation, following the American Society of Shoulder and Elbow Therapists guideline and patients that underwent 'multifactorial approach training', which focusses on decreasing kinesiophobia and fear of recurrent dislocations. The study population comprises patients who will undergo Arthroscopic Bankart Repair (ABR) after a traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation at Spaarne Gasthuis Haarlem/Hoofddorp, OLVG Amsterdam, Amstelland Ziekenhuis Amstelveen, Gelre Ziekenhuizen, Medisch Spectrum Twente, or Flevoziekenhuis Almere.
Important psychological problems can be experienced after sports injuries such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), these delay physical recovery, affect the quality of rehabilitation and eventually cause problems or re-injuries in the process of returning to sports. The most important of these problems are re-injury anxiety, rehabilitation adherence, rehabilitation self-efficacy problems and kinesiophobia. Although some interventions have been proposed for the solution of these problems, a structured intervention approach has not been put forward yet. With this research project, our aim is to examine the effectiveness of the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) protocol (CBT+VR) enriched with the contribution of virtual reality (VR). The research will be conducted with 60 athletes who meet the inclusion criteria. In the study, which is planned as a 4X5 (groupXmeasurement) mixed factorial design model with four groups (intervention1-intervention2-intervention3, control), the athletes will be filled with psychological assessment scales in order to collect the first data within the first week of starting physical therapy after ACL operation. The data obtained will be analyzed with multi-level statistics. Whether the anxiety levels of the athletes increase in the VR environment will be monitored with the biofeedback system, which will provide concrete data as well as subjective scales.
In epidemiological studies, the incidence of foot problems has been found to be high as a result of the increase in life expectancy. The changes that occur in the foot with advancing age are extremely important in that they affect how the foot functions and transfer these effects to other body systems while standing and walking. These changes can also cause foot pain, limit mobility, impair functional performance in activities where the foot bears weight, and increase the risk of falling. In recent years, the level of kinesiophobia in elderly individuals; It seems to attract attention in terms of its effects on balance, falling, risk of falling, fear of falling, depression, physical activity level and quality of life. However, in the elderly living in nursing homes; It is not yet known how ankle joint position sense, foot posture, pain, foot-ankle disability, activity limitation, lower extremity muscle strength, walking speed and functional exercise capacity affect kinesiophobia. By elucidating these relationships, it will be possible to develop intervention strategies aimed at increasing foot-ankle characteristics, lower extremity muscle strength, walking speed and functional capacity, which are modifiable risk factors. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between kinesiophobia and foot-ankle characteristics, lower extremity muscle strength, walking speed and functional exercise capacity in elderly people living in nursing homes.
Introduction: Kinesiophobia is a common symptom associated with high levels of disability and has also been observed in patients with headache. However, the relationship between kinesiophobia and clinical factors in this population is unknown. Objective: We aimed to investigate the relationship between kinesiophobia and fear of falling, quality of life, and physical activity in children with headache. Methods: We included 127 children aged 6-18 years with headache complaints in our study. The Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS) was used to assess kinesiophobia, the International Falls Efficacy Scale (IFSES) was used to assess fear of falling, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)- short form was used to measure physical activity, and the Quality of Life Scale for Children (QOLS) was used to assess quality of life. A visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess pain intensity.
This study will be conducted as intervention research to determine the effect of mobilization training to be provided to the patient undergoing hip arthroplasty on postoperative kinesiophobia and fear of falling. The project will be carried out with 50 voluntary patients (25 intervention, 25 control) aged over 65 who came to Hospital for hip arthroplasty after femur fracture, can communicate, have no advanced sensory loss related to vision and hearing, do not have a psychiatric history, and will undergo hip arthroplasty surgery for the first time. Data will be collected using a "Sociodemographic Characteristics Questionnaire", the "Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia", and "the Fall Activity Scale". Appropriate statistical methods will be used in the analysis of the data. Patients in the control group will be given routine care during the study. Patients in the experimental group will receive technology-assisted mobilization training in addition to routine care. Before mobilization, a training video loaded into a tablet will be given to patients. Written permission will be taken from the ethics committee and the institution for the implementation of the research and written consent will be obtained from the patients.
This study aimed to investigate the effects of prostate cancer on patients' physical activity, kinesiophobia, fatigue and functionality. This research is a prospective study to be conducted on volunteer individuals between the ages of 40-75. People diagnosed with prostate cancer (study group) and healthy adults who have not been diagnosed with prostate cancer before (control group) will be included in the study. The demographic characteristics, physical activity levels and quality of life of all individuals participating in the study will be evaluated with an online form. In demographic data, physical, sociodemographic data such as age (years), height (cm), body weight (kg), body mass index (kg/m2) and disease-specific information will be recorded. Physical activity level will be measured with the International Physical Activity Survey short form (UFAA), fatigue with the Functional Evaluation of Chronic Disease Treatment-Fatigue Questionnaire, fear of movement with the Causes of Fear of Movement Questionnaire, and quality of life with the Functional Evaluation of Cancer Treatment-Prostate Version questionnaire (KHTFD-Y).
Objective(s) of the trial: Better understand the interaction between kinesiophobia and motor control. Main objective: To measure the influence of induced kinesiophobia on functional connectivity between the posterior parieto-occipital region and the primary motor cortex in healthy subjects during a pointing task. Secondary objectives: The secondary objectives will be 1) to verify the excitatory influence of pIPS stimulation on the excitability of M1 at rest and 2) to establish whether there is a correlation between functional connectivity and the level of kinesiophobia ( as measured by the Tampa Scale)
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between pain management, kinesiophobia, physical activity and disability level in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) in different genders. Eighty-two patients with CLBP (42 females, 42 males) between the ages of 20-60 participated in the study. Pain management strategies were determined by Pain Coping Questionnaire (PCQ). Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia for perception of kinesiophobia, Oswestry Disability Index for disability due to pain and International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) for the physical activity level were used.
