Filter by:The presence of to is thoracolumbar (TL) mobility a significant aspect in the context of running. Most of the factors may be related to certain kinematic parameters of the lumbopelvic-hip complex during running.
Frailty is a common geriatric condition with significantly increased vulnerability to stress and susceptibility of negative health-related outcomes. Sacropenia and impaired cognitive function are two major contributors to frailty. This study aims to evaluate the effects of the combined use of exergaming and resistance training in improving the frailty of nursing home residents.
The randomized control trail was to determine the effects of additional functional Strength Training on mobility in Children with Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy.
This randomized controlled study evaluates the effect of mobilization protocol applied to knee arthroplasty patients on anxiety level, pain, mobility and functional status.
Lengthy hospitalization and immobility can lead to muscle loss resulting in reduced recovery rates and prolonged hospital stay or readmission. Older adults discharged from hospitals are at an increased risk for functional decline, falls and disability. Daily exercise and physical activities have proven to enhance the recovery and discharge process for older patients from the hospital and ultimately save vast amounts of dollars each year. The aim of this study is to initiate early mobilization and decrease the rate of functional decline in post-surgical older adults' patients in the acute care hospital setting in Alberta, Canada. The investigators are implementing a BE-FIT (BEdside reconditioning for Functional ImprovemenTs) a quality improvement, evidence-based exercise program that focuses on early mobilization and recovery by minimizing bed rest, promoting functional tasks, and encouraging self-management. Patients enrolled in the program will receive a bedside exercise plan to be completed independently throughout their stay in the hospital. Control patients will receive usual care without the added exercise plan. Patient mobility during their hospital stay will be assessed pre and post BE-FIT initiation according to a predetermined mobility scoring system. Secondary outcomes will include: time-to-mobility, length of stay, complication incidence and hospitalization costs.
The investigators have designed a 2-center, pilot feasibility, randomized controlled trial (PROXIMUS) to determine the feasibility and safety of a larger multi center, randomized open-label trial comparing high protein combined with individualized exercise vs. standard management during the acute phase of critical illness in children. The investigators aim to determine the impact of the intervention on preservation of muscle mass; and functional status at 1 month and 6 months after randomization.
In their day to day, persons do from simple to more or less complicated tasks and activities (ie: stand from a chair, open a door, shopping, read, drive, play chess, remind an appointment...). Such ability to do things is called capacity. Intrinsic capacity is the combination of all the physical and mental capacities that a person has, and reach its maximum in the early adulthood and then declines as the person ages. Each kind of capacity declines at her own speed (which may be faster or slower according to each person lifestyle), and once drops below a threshold may lead to a reduction in quality of life and loss of autonomy. Nevertheless there are some actions that may be effective to prevent or slow such decline. To do so the investigators have design an intervention that combines several things of different nature (what is know as a complex intervention) called AMICOPE. The AMICOPE intervention is performed in the community or in primary care centers through 12 weekly group sessions of 2 h 30 min which combine structured and adapted physical activity, group dynamics to promote social support and address loneliness, social isolation and depressive symptoms, and dietary advice. Our study is addressed to persons over 70 with light problems in mobility, nutrition or mood state. The purpose of this study is to assess if the AMICOPE intervention is better than the standard advice to follow healthy lifestyles to improve or maintain self-perceived health, mobility, nutritional status an psychological wellbeing.
De Morton Mobility Index is recommended for the evaluation of mobility in the evidence-based guidelines, in patients in intensive care units. The aim of our study is to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the De Morton Mobility Index in patients hospitalized in the respiratory intensive care unit.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a multidisciplinary, multimodal approach aiming to improve surgical outcomes. This study compares the length of hospital stay of patients undergoing single-level posterior lumbar arthrodesis and treated with the ERAS protocol with the hospital stay of patients treated according to the standard protocol.
Aims and Objectives: This study was conducted in order to determine the factors that affected the early mobilization after surgery of patients who had undergone knee and hip arthroplasty. Background: Early mobilization in knee and hip arthroplasty is still not at the desired level, and it is among the most frequently overlooked nursing practices. Desing: This study is descriptive and cross-sectional. STROBE checlist was used to compile the study's report. Methods: The universe of the study consisted of a total of 80 patients who were hospitalized between 07 November 2017 and 21 September 2018 in the Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic of a State Hospital to undergo knee or hip arthroplasty, and who met the inclusion criteria. The sample of the study consisted of 60 patients who were in the universe of the study, who met the inclusion criteria and who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study.
