Filter by:This study will compare the effectiveness of the Elongation Longitudinaux Avec Decoaptation Osteo Articulaire (ELDOA) method and upper thoracic mobilization and mobility exercises in correcting forward head posture (FHP). This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these methods in reducing forward head posture. The total sample size will be 36, with each group consisting of 18 participants. This study will be a randomized clinical trial. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be selected through screening and then assessed for outcomes using NPRS, a goniometer, the Neck Disability Index (NDI), and Web Plot Digitizer (WPD) Software. Statistical analysis will be conducted using SPSS version 27.
The goal of this observational study is to observe baropodometric parameters such as postural sway and foot pressure distrubiton in healthy young participants between the ages of 18-35. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does headphone usage affect baropodometric parameters in healthy young individuals? - How does texting affect baropodometric parameters in healthy young individuals? - How does headphone usage while texting affect baropodometric parameters in healthy young individuals? Participants will: - Only be evaluated once. - Stand on the Baropodometric device platform while standing, texting, listening to music, texting while listening to music for the static and posturographic balance evaluation. - Walk on the baropdometric device platform while standing, texting, listening to music, texting while listening to music for dynamic evaluation.
The aim of this study is to determine posture and posture related factors in patients with restrictive and obstructive lung disease.
The aim of this study is to investigate body awareness and functional movement in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy controls.
This study is designed to examine the effect of telerehabilitation application on the musculoskeletal system of drivers.The study will include 40 voluntary participants who work as drivers on inter-district routes in Sakarya. The participants' sociodemographic information, musculoskeletal problems, and postures will be assessed. Participants will be divided into two groups: one group will receive tele-rehabilitation with posture and stabilization exercises, while the other group will serve as the control group. The exercises will be implemented for 10 weeks, followed by an 8-week tapering period, after which the groups will be crossed over. A re-evaluation will be conducted after 10 weeks, with follow-up assessments scheduled for 3 months later.
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are a significant occupational health problem for dentists and have been linked to a decline in quality of life, often leading to stress-related illnesses and early retirement. Poor posture, poor movement or imbalances in the neck or shoulders can lead to the three most common pain syndromes in dentistry. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the working position adopted during an endodontic procedure and to determine the perception of symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders in first and second year students of the Master in Advanced Endodontics at the European University of Madrid (UEM), using the standardised Nordic Kuorinka questionnaire supplemented by a form with socio-demographic variables. This study has a descriptive cross-sectional observational design and included 10 students selected by convenience sampling. A video camera was used to record the procedures from three different angles for a maximum of 5 minutes. The information was processed using Microsoft Excel spreadsheet software, and the video recordings were assessed using Rodgers' Muscular Fatigue Analysis (RMFA) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA).
Postural instability has a major impact on the mobility and daily life activities of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients as it often leads to reduced mobility, insecure stance and falls. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of focal vibration on the static and dynamic balance of a group of Parkinson's disease patients with Hoehn and Yahr (HeY) stage II-III. They underwent three weeks of focal muscle vibration applied to the quadriceps, soles of the feet and trapezius muscles bilaterally in addition to conventional physiotherapy . The static and dynamic balance was assessed at baseline (T0), after 3 weeks of treatment (T1) and after 1 month from the last treatment (T2) with the Tinetti scale and stabilometry evaluations.
The aim of this study is to investigate cervical region biomechanics, muscle performance and respiratory muscle strength in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy subjects.
The postural observation of the patient has an important role for the evaluation and monitoring of orthopedic and neurological degenerative pathologies. The study of the effects of rehabilitation in the treatment of postural alterations depends on the validity, sensitivity and specificity of the tool used. The radiographic evaluation of the spine in the standard anteroposterior and lateral projections is the gold standard and provides a standardized and objective measure of the dysmorphisms and paramorphisms of the spine, although it requires exposure to X-rays and with costs of the method especially in the need to repeat the radiological examination in time. Non-radiological tools for postural assessment have been proposed in the literature, with uncertain judgments by the various authors regarding their validity and reliability, due to the heterogeneity and poor quality of the studies in this regard. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new posture analysis methodology (BHOHB SPINAL-METER ® and CervicalMeter®) in measuring spine dysmorphisms and paramorphisms in adult patients affected by orthopedic and neurological degenerative pathologies, who carry out rehabilitation at the Policlinico Gemelli Foundation (FPG) Hospitalization and Rehabilitation Services clinic. In particular, the correspondence of radiological and clinical data with the reports obtained from the "BHOHB SPINAL-METER ® and CervicalMeter®" will be considered and the relationship between the data obtained with the two methods and the characteristics of pain, disability, balance and quality of life will be observed of patients suffering from orthopedic and neurological disease with dysmorphisms and paramorphisms of the spine, belonging to the rehabilitation clinic who agree to participate in the study.
Tension-type headache is a headache that starts from the cervical and suboccipital regions, spreads from the back of the head to the parietal, frontal and temporal regions, and is felt in the form of compression, pressure and heaviness. Increased muscle and fascia tone in the cervical and cranial region, together with active trigger points and factors that trigger pain, cause tension-type headache. Head and neck fascia serves as an important proprioceptive structure in our body. Abnormal inputs from mechanoreceptors and structures around the joint cause deterioration in joint position sense. This study was planned to investigate the effects of the new facial distortion model on pain intensity, cervical posture and joint position sense, unlike the manual techniques used in previous studies in tension-type headache.
