It helps children with motor disabilities to improve their gross mobility and functionality in order to maximize their independence, autonomy and security, as well as to properly prepare their child so that they can successfully participate in their social environment and activities of daily living. Purpose: The main purpose of this study was to record the opinion of parents about pediatric physiotherapy and the physiotherapist. Method: The study involved 37 parents of children with motor disabilities. The research was conducted at the Neuro Physio Kids Physical Therapy Center Konstantinou Karamanlis 60 Thessaloniki. Results: 78% of the sample of parents / guardians who participated in the survey responded that they liked the physiotherapy process, and 79% believed that physiotherapy helps improve their child’s functionality. Conclusion: In our sample , parents / guardians of children with motor disorders who follow a physiotherapeutic intervention program, many researchers like the process of physiotherapy and are actively involved in its implementation as they are encouraged by the physiotherapist. The question of whether physiotherapy helps to improve a child’s functionality and to facilitate their day-to-day life is an only negative answer, possibly due to the seriousness of the problem. The rest at a very high rate give positive answers and are aware of the positive effect of physiotherapy. Further research on a larger number of parents / guardians of children with motor disorders is recommended.","PeriodicalId":112824,"journal":{"name":"Physiotherapy Research and Reports","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127173648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To evaluate their effect on gait kinematics one might rely on gait analysis with summary indexes such as the Gait Profile Score (GPS). The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of associating the LTBWS with conventional therapy on the gait quality of post-stroke patients, using GPS as the main outcome measure. To do this, a randomized clinical trial was performed with a sample of 16 participants, mean age 53.3 (± 8) years, 7 male and 9 female, post-stroke 6.8 average time (± 5.7) months. To analyze the effects of LTBWS, participants were randomly allocated in two groups, the control (CG) and experimental (EG) groups, with 7 and 9 participants, respectively. The CG received only conventional physical therapy once or twice a week and the EG, received additional 20 minutes of LTBWS conducted on a treadmill (10 minutes) and on the ground (10 minutes) for 12 weeks. No difference between groups was found. Within CG, none of the variables exhibited differences between the moments. Within EG, the GPS of the both limbs and GPS of paretic limb, changed post-intervention. However, some individuals presented improvement above the minimal detectable change in both groups. In conclusion, associating LTBWS with physical therapy seems to be not superior than conventional physical therapy, but it deserves more investigation in larger samples as there were some individuals that responded better than others. *Correspondence to: Elisangela Ferretti Manffra, Health Technology Graduate ProgramPontifical Catholic University of Paraná, Tel: +5541984040690, Brazil, E-mail: elisangela.manffra@pucpr.br","PeriodicalId":112824,"journal":{"name":"Physiotherapy Research and Reports","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123904935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of treatment strategies for the management of FMS is complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) treatments including acupuncture. A new acupuncture therapy, acupuncture point injection (API) that combines acupuncture and medication is recently used in China and Korea to accomplish more effective therapeutic outcomes. Yet, there is no attempt to investigate the effect of API with placental extract on the treatment of FMS. Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of API with placental extract on pain reduction and life quality in patients with FMS. Methods: This is a retrospective study analyzing medical records. Setting: Clinical setting. Participants: Participants were 64 patients at the clinic being treated for FMS, at an average age of 46 having symptom duration from 6 months to 2 years. Intervention: Placental extract was weekly injected into acupuncture points GB21, SI11, SI13, SI14, Ex-HN15, and BL13 for five weeks to the participants. Outcome measures: The primary outcome, pain, was measured on a VAS scale. Secondary outcomes, sleep disorder and daily workable hours without break, were evaluated using questionnaire. Results: After APIs with placental extract for five weeks, pain and sleep discomfort were substantially decreased. Patients also displayed elongated productive times which denote workable hours to maintain daily activity without pain-evoked break after the API treatment. Conclusion: We suggest that API with placental extracts is a safe and promising treatment for FMS. A larger follow-up trial is needed to determine more definitely the efficacy of API with placental extract.","PeriodicalId":112824,"journal":{"name":"Physiotherapy Research and Reports","volume":"160 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128974347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Homann","doi":"10.15761/PRR.1000117","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15761/PRR.1000117","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Morbus Parkinson is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and is considered to be one of the most common neurological diseases. The treatment of typical motor and non-motor symptoms with pharmacological and neurosurgical interventions is limited to some extent. Exercise therapy represents a supplementary treatment option. Although there are more and more studies investigating exercise therapy in Parkinson’s disease, there is a lack of precise recommendations on exercise modality, duration and intensity. Objective: The objective of this study is to provide an overview of current interventional studies on exercise therapy in Parkinson’s disease, to present exercise programs of effective studies in detail for practice-oriented application and to develop precise exercise recommendations. Methods: In February 2018 a systematic literature search of current interventional exercise studies in Parkinson’s disease of the last ten years was performed using the database PubMed. Results: Twenty-eight studies (with overall 1314 patients) with different types of exercise (endurance, strength, balance, tai chi etc.) were included in this study, whereby 22 studies used endurance or strength training. Twenty-five studies reported positive effects of the intervention. Except for four studies only participants with mild to moderate disease severity (Hoehn and Yahr stage 1-3) were investigated. Data about exercise intensity was reported heterogeneously. No study reported severe negative side effects. Conclusion: Overall, exercise therapy seems to be a safe and effective additional treatment option in Parkinson’s disease. The following exercise recommendations are based on the effective exercise intervention programs of the included studies and are aimed to improve motor and some non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (in Hoehn and Yahr stage 1-3): Per week people with Parkinson’s disease should perform 1) two sessions of endurance training of 30 to 60 minutes duration per session, 2) two sessions of strength training and 3) two sessions of either balance training or tai chi. Future studies should focus on different exercise intensities and modalities (e.g. strength training on unstable surfaces, high-speed strength training) and the underlying physiological responses in Parkinson`s disease. *Correspondence to: Lena Steiger, Department of Neurology, Medical University of Graz, Austria, Tel: +436603455015; E-mail: lenasteiger05@gmail.com","PeriodicalId":112824,"journal":{"name":"Physiotherapy Research and Reports","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126506246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
