Filter by:Parkinson's disease was first described in history in 1817 by James Parkinson in his monograph "An essay on swinging palsy", and today it is the 2nd most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's, affecting approximately 6.1 million people. Its main histopathological feature is the decrease in dopaminergic secretion in the basal ganglia and there are three cardinal findings: Bradykinesia, Tremor, Rigidity. Although joint and skeletal deformities are seen in approximately 70% of Parkinson's patients, they are not adequately evaluated and cause significant functional disability and chronic pain, independent of motor symptoms.Musculoskeletal pathologies seen in Parkinson's patients can be classified as: musculoskeletal pain, articular problems, postural problems and bone mineralization defects. The shoulder girdle is a joint with complex and delicate function, consisting of four joints (glenohumeral, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular and scapulothoracic), supporting muscles and periarticular ligaments, which seriously affects the patient's quality of daily life and function. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the best imaging tool in the diagnosis of musculoskeletal system pathologies, it is quite sensitive to artifact-forming motion. Ultrasound (US) imaging is widely used in the evaluation of rotator cuff muscles, biceps muscle and glenohumeral joint pathologies and has many advantages over MRI, such as providing fast, cheap and dynamic imaging. Although many studies have proven that shoulder girdle musculoskeletal pathologies such as bicipital tendinitis, m.supraspinatus tendinosis, subacromial/subdeltoid bursitis, subacromial impingement syndrome, and adhesive capsulitis are seen more frequently in Parkinson's patients by ultrasonographic imaging, these shoulder girdle pathologies seen in Parkinson's patients are more common. The risk factors for pathologies have not been defined. In this study, we aimed to determine the ultrasonographic findings and risk factors of shoulder pathologies in Parkinson's patients and to investigate the effects of shoulder pathologies on quality of daily life, physical activity, falls and balance.
Brief Summary The aim of this randomized controlled study is to reveal the short-term effects of physical and social factors in different therapeutic environments on patients with rotator cuff related shoulder pain following the same exercise program. The main questions it aims answer are: - Is there any difference in terms of pain levels among groups with rotator cuff related shoulder pain who treated in different therapeutic settings. - Is there any difference in terms of functionality and self-efficacy among groups with rotator cuff related shoulder pain who treated in different therapeutic settings.
The aim of this study was to examine the factors affecting shoulder pain in stroke survivors and to determine how much the factors affect shoulder pain
This study aims to address the existing gap in knowledge by conducting a comprehensive comparison of the incidence of pain and common bile duct injuries in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy using Low pressure pneumoperitoneum versus high pressure pneumoperitoneum.
Irritability was defined by Geoffrey Maitland as the vigor of activity to provoke symptoms, the severity of symptoms, and time for symptoms to subside. Irritability is deeply embedded in the physical therapy clinical decision-making process. However, the mechanisms contributing to irritability are unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to characterize pain sensitivity and pain-related psychological factors by irritability level in individuals with shoulder pain.
This study aimed to investigate whether laser and neuromuscular electrical nerve stimulation applied in addition to conventional physical therapy exercises in hemiplegic shoulder pain seen in patients with stroke provides an additional contribution to pain, range of motion, spasticity, upper extremity functions and whether the two treatment types are superior to each other.
Goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether Isometric muscle training decrease pain improve function and enhance performance. Does Isometric exercise improve pain function and performance in bowlers? Researcher will compare the Isometric muscle training with Traditional therapy to examine that isometric exercise work on pain function and performance. Participants will receive isometric exercises for three days in week and will be followed up after two weeks total four weeks of trial(experimental group). Participants will receive traditional physical therapy treatment three days of week and followed up after two weeks total four weeks of trail (contril group)
Patients in the block group will be placed in a lateral position with the operated shoulder on top before awakening from surgery. After ensuring aseptic conditions (the block site will be wiped three times with 10% povidone-iodine), the linear ultrasound probe will be covered in a sterile manner. While performing the block, the Hitachi brand linear ultrasound probe will be placed parallel to the scapular spine on the surgical side and will be slid medially. After imaging the 2nd and 3rd ribs on the medial side of the scapular spine, the block needle will be advanced under ultrasound guidance onto the 3rd rib. After contacting the rib with the needle, it will be retracted by 1mm, and the block site will be confirmed by injecting sterile 0.9% NaCl. Subsequently, patients will be administered 30ml of 0.25% bupivacaine in a controlled manner. Before awakening, both the block group and the non-block group will be administered 1g of paracetamol and 1mg/kg of tramadol intravenously. In the postoperative period, these patients will be provided with multimodal analgesia, including intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with 4mg/ml Tramadol HCl in 100ml NaCl. There will be no basal infusion, with bolus doses of 20mg and a lockout period of 20 minutes, and a total dose limitation of 200mg over 4 hours. Patients will be visited at 0, 1, 6, 12, and 24 hours, and they will be asked to draw their visual analog scale (VAS) score on a paper scale. The amount of opioid used in the PCA and the need for rescue analgesia (Arveles 50mg intravenously) will be assessed. Patients will routinely receive 4x1g paracetamol in the postoperative period.
This study was planned as a randomized controlled clinical trial to determine the effect of 4-7-8 breathing technique on shoulder pain and pulmonary function tests after laporoscopic cholecystectomy. A sample of 96 patients will be randomly assigned to the study and control groups. The study group will be administered the 4-7-8 breathing technique after LK, while the control group will be given routine care of the ward. Shoulder pain and pulmonary function tests will be measured in the first 24 hours and at discharge. The data obtained will be analyzed by appropriate statistical methods.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of muscle preliminary contraction in the rehabilitation and prevention of degenerative pain in the spine, hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, and ankle joints, as well as after hip and knee arthroplasty. HYPOTHESIS: Muscle preliminary contraction has a significant short-term and long-term effect in the rehabilitation and prevention of degenerative pain in the spine, hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, and ankle joints, as well as after hip and knee arthroplasty. RESEARCH METHODS: At least 216 patients with degenerative pain in the spine, hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, and ankle joints, as well as after hip and knee arthroplasty, will be studied. They will be randomized into pairwise sub-groups. All will receive standard advice. The maneuver sub¬groups will receive additional advice - preliminary contraction of the muscles in the corresponding kinesiology segment. This advice will be embedded in all motor activities of daily living involving the relevant area. The following follow-up parameters will be used: visual analogue pain scale, manual muscle testing, goniometry, centimeter, and preliminary contraction success rate. Their follow-up will be threefold - at the beginning, after 1, and after 6 months. For statistical processing, multiple analysis of variance (MANOVA), with post hoc Bonferroni multiple tests, and Pearson correlation analysis, with post hoc regression analysis, will be used. CONCLUSION: The positive results will allow the preliminary muscle contraction to be used as a universal tool in the rehabilitation, prevention, and prevention of degenerative pain in the spine, hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, and ankle joints, as well as after hip and knee arthroplasty (international contribution). This maneuver is very short (seconds), easy (everybody can perform it), does not require the allocation of time, space, and resources (including financial ones), and is instantly incorporated into everyday life.
