Design: One between-groups factor with four levels (instructional, motivational, no self-talk, neutral self-talk) and one within-groups “time” factor with two levels (pre-test, post-test). Method: 35 men and 25 women physically active and knee injured following meniscectomy 6 months ago participated. After 2 days of familiarization, they completed four dynamic balance stability trials, spaced 3 min apart. After the first two trials (best value as pre-test score), the participants were randomly assigned to four groups: the motivational self-talk group, instructional self-talk group and control groups (no instruction and neutral self-talk). They repeated the two trials (best value as post-test score) expressing aloud the phrases assigned. Results: Analysis of variance repeated-measures and Sidak multiple comparisons tests were performed on the time variable to detect differences in each group for each time point (pre- and post-test). Statistical analysis showed that balance board time score increased significantly only for experimental groups after the intervention period and not for control groups, F(3,56) = 9.93, p < 0.05, η2 = 0.861 for time of keeping stability on the board. Conclusions: The findings of the present study indicate that injured active individuals with meniscectomy may enhance their balance test performance via the use of instructional and motivational self-talk.","PeriodicalId":186472,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Physiotherapy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120959327","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}

Examination of its characteristics and relationship with other factors such as functional ability and self-efficacy may assist the development of future intervention strategies. Methods: Participants with stroke were recruited from community stroke groups. The presence or absence of fatigue was measured with the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI). Demographic details, functional ability (Nottingham Extended Activities of Daily Living scale, NEADL) and self-efficacy (Stroke Self-efficacy Questionnaire, SSEQ) scores in the Fatigue and No Fatigue groups were compared. The complexity of post-stroke fatigue (PSF) was also evaluated by examination of the five individual dimensions of the MFI. Results: Fifty-five chronic stroke (> 1 year post-stroke) survivors participated in this study. Prevalence of PSF was 49.1%. No relationship was found between the presence of fatigue and socio-demographic details. Fatigue was negatively correlated with NEADL (r = −0.32; p = 0.016) and SSEQ scores (r = −0.43; p = 0.001). Physical Fatigue was the most common type of PSF (69.6%) closely followed by Activity-related Fatigue (67.9%) and Mental Fatigue (62%). Conclusion: A relationship exists between PSF, self-efficacy and functional ability. The prevalence of both Physical and Mental Fatigue reflects the multidimensional nature of PSF. Future research should address the implementation of self-efficacy-based interventions to reduce fatigue.","PeriodicalId":186472,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Physiotherapy","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125250999","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}

Twenty-six physically active elderly subjects were assigned to either a 6-week IMT program (13 subjects) or a placebo-IMT (P-IMT; 13 subjects). The following parameters were measured before and after intervention: 6-minute walk test (6MWT) distance, inspiratory muscle strength (PImax) and quality of life scores. Between-groups analysis of functional capacity was not statistically significant, but showed a tendency to improvement in the IMT group from 469.4 m (IQR: 418–532 m) at baseline to 516.4 m (IQR: 462.5–560.1 m) during follow-up. The IMT program induced significant improvement in inspiratory strength between the groups from 55 cm H2O (IQR: 45–71.25 cm H2O) at baseline to 90 cm H2O (IQR: 76.25–107.5 cm H2O) during follow-up, whereas the P-IMT group had a slight decrease from 75 cm H2O (IQR: 67.5–95 cm H2O) at baseline to 67.5 cm H2O (IQR: 65–75 cm H2O; p = 0.010). The quality of life questionnaire did not improve after the IMT program. The present study demonstrates that a short-term 6-week IMT program results in improvement in inspiratory muscle strength and a tendency to improvement in functional capacity in physically active elderly people.","PeriodicalId":186472,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Physiotherapy","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124326332","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}

Methodology: The McGill Clinical Teacher Evaluation including self-assessment and importance of the attributes of clinical teaching was used to survey 46 clinicians and academicians who teach physiotherapy in five of the seven physiotherapy programs in Nigeria. Descriptive and non-parametric statistics were used to analyze and interpret data. Results: Overall, the Nigerian teachers’ self- and importance rating on McGill clinical teachers’ attributes was high. The teachers rated themselves least on attributes related to challenging content from text and journals and encouraging student to take responsibility for their learning, while customizing clinical teaching to suit the students’ level and occasionally challenging content from texts and journals were the least important attributes. Academic faculty gave higher importance ratings for displaying good judgment in decision making than clinical faculty, while a modest link was found between years of post-professional experience and self-perception as effective teacher. Conclusion: The attributes with lowest self-assessment and importance may indicate areas for future concentration particularly in the Nigerian academic community, including curriculum content and design of physiotherapy teachers training.","PeriodicalId":186472,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Physiotherapy","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115220918","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}

This mixed-methods study aimed to measure the impact of a cultural competence training programme on the ability of Indian physiotherapy students to engage in culturally competent care practices that improved perceived patient adherence to treatment. Qualitative data from semi-structured interviews conducted online 2 weeks after the training were transcribed and analysed using framework analysis. Quantitative data in the form of pre- and post-training scores on the Sports Injury Rehabilitation and Assessment Scale (SIRAS) were recorded to evaluate the impact of training on therapist's perception of treatment adherence. Findings revealed significant changes between the pre-training (median = 9) and post-training (median = 13) SIRAS scores (Wilcoxon Rank Test p < 0.001), with all participants recording a positive change in treatment adherence after attending the training. Qualitative results complemented the quantitative findings. The four main themes consisted of the respondent's perspective of physiotherapy treatment adherence, culture, the cultural competency training and its positive impact on other parameters. In conclusion, the results of this study justify the need to incorporate cultural competency training within physiotherapy education in order to provide patient-centred care.","PeriodicalId":186472,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Physiotherapy","volume":"152 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133961009","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}

Methods: Self-reports on muscle tension habits and on general tension, and the covariates neck and shoulder pain, perceived stress level, perceived mastery of work, quantitative work demands, and leisure time physical activity, were collected on a questionnaire (52 males, 81 females, mean age 23 years). A clinical test on relaxation ability was performed by a trained physiotherapist on a subsample (38 males, 39 females). Results: Perceived general tension showed a highly significant (p < 0.001) correlation with the muscle tension habit score (0.58), and the muscle tension factor (0.54). None of the self-reported tension measures correlated with the relaxation ability score. The self-reported tension measures, but not the clinical tension score, showed an association with neck and shoulder pain and perceived stress level. Conclusions: The self-reported measures of general tension and of muscle tension correlated and probably represented similar phenomenon. However, the subjects’ perceived stress level was to a higher degree reflected in the measure of general tension. The score of the clinical test on relaxation ability did not show an association with the self-reported tension measures.","PeriodicalId":186472,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Physiotherapy","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124623171","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}
