Filter by:This study investigates the effectiveness of SIMPLI.REHAB, a digital tool employed as an interface for administering occupational rehabilitation programs to patients diagnosed with Rheumatoid and Psoriatic Arthritis. Both of these conditions are inflammatory joint disorders capable of causing significant morphofunctional alterations in the hands, especially in their advanced stages. The introduction of digital technology emerges as a complementary tool when implementing rehabilitation programs. Utilizing a prospective, longitudinal, single-blinded experimental study, 35 patients will be allocated into two groups: one receiving a complementary digital intervention through SIMPLI.REHAB and the other through a conventional rehabilitation program. Each group consists of six patients and the program spans seven weeks, focusing on therapeutic exercises, training in manual dexterity, and motor coordination, among other interventions, led by a Physiatrist. The study intends to measure outcomes based on functionality scores, pain, disease activity, joint range, grip, pinch strength, and manual dexterity, both before and after each intervention, in order to ascertain the efficacy of integrating dynamic content through the digital tool SIMPLI.REHAB, as a supplementary resource in occupational rehabilitation programs. The potential limitations of the study include potential losses of follow-up and difficulties in assessing adherence to the digital tool precisely. Nonetheless, the digital tool aims to augment functional gains in rehabilitation programs by providing patients with accessible dynamic content of home-based strategies.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness of a health-coaching intervention to improve physical activity in older adults with limited mobility when compared to a control, health education group.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether Graded Motor Imagery (GMI) application is as effective as Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The objectives are to improve range of motion (ROM) and muscle strength, reduce pain and stiffness, increase pain pressure threshold, and enhance function and physical performance through GMI application.
The aim of our study is to objectively and clearly determine the differences between the Spasticity and Decreased Functionality in the Upper Extremity Flexor Group Muscles After Stroke, the Vibration, mBZHT and Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Applications in terms of treatment process and effectiveness, and to increase the use of the hands and upper extremities in the daily life activities of the patient.
This study aimed to make the Turkish adaptation of ACTIVLIM-CP and to examine its psychometric properties. Eighty-nine individuals with CP, aged between 2-18 years were included in the study. PEDÄ°, ABILOCO-Kids, and ABILHAND-Kids scores and Wee-FIM questionnaires were used for validity analysis. Test re-test method was used for reliability.
This study was planned as a prospective quasi-experimental study with the control group to determine the effect of structured pressure injury patient education (program on the knowledge, participation, wound healing progress, and quality of life among patients with limited mobility. We hypothesized that there would be a significant effect of structured pressure injury patient education on patient's knowledge, participation, wound healing rate, and quality of life between the control and intervention group over time.
This a cross-over study to compare the effect of two different muscle energy techniques (MET) including post-isometric inhibition and reciprocal inhibition on the spinal reflex excitability. The study contains two experimental groups, while one group will receive post-isometric inhibition MET in the first stage and reciprocal inhibition MET in the second stage, the other group will receive reciprocal inhibition MET in the first stage and post-isometric inhibition MET in the second stage.
This randomized-controlled trial aims to investigate the efficacy of Graded Motor Imagery (GMI) on function, pain, and range of motion (ROM) in patients with a posttraumatic stiff elbow.
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.
