Also, on examining the trigger points, highest prevalence was seen in upper trapezius which was 94.79% followed by neck extensors 72.97% and levator scapulae 63.54%. Positional release technique and Myofascial release technique both have been used individually on both active and latent trigger points and have shown their effects on pain, functional disability and movement restriction.  With considering the previous literature, aim of the study is to compare the effect of positional release technique and myofascial release technique on upper trapezius and levator scapulae latent trigger points in undergraduate students. METHODOLOGY: 40 subjects fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected and randomly allocated into two groups via chit method. All the subjects were assessed for pain using VAS, neck disability using Neck Disability Index and cervical range of motion using goniometer before initiating the treatment. Group A was given Positional release technique along with conventional exercises of cervical movements and shoulder girdle exercises. Group B was given Myofascial release technique along with same conventional exercises.  Data was collected and analysed. There was not a statistically significant difference when post scores of Group A and Group B were compared for pain, neck disability and cervical range of motion. On comparing the differences of scores of Group A and group B, statistically significant difference was seen only in cervical flexion range of motion (p<0.0016), cervical right rotation (p<0.0002) and left lateral flexion (p<0.0062) showing better results in Group A than Group B. \u0000KEYWORDS: Myofascial trigger points, Positional release technique, Myofascial release technique, Visual analog scale, Neck disability index","PeriodicalId":284305,"journal":{"name":"VIMS JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL THERAPY","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132319617","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}

The coronavirus is a highly infectious virus and spreads through droplets generated during coughing, sneezing, talking, and even breathing. .[1] As the main symptoms reported after COVID-19 are fatigue and dyspnoea, the need of the study is to find out consequences of COVID 19 in status of Physical Fitness with respect to Functional status, endurance and Lung capacity in Post COVID- 19 subjects\u0000 \u0000Aim – To analyse the consequences of covid-19 in the status on physical fitness in post COVID patients.\u0000 \u0000Objectives- 1. To find out effect of COVID on lung function capacity assessing PEFR in post COVID patients.\u0000\u0000To find out effect of COVID on functional status in post COVID patients.\u0000\u0000 3.To know the effect of COVID on endurance using Figure of 8 walk test in post COVID patients.\u0000 \u0000Methods- The research was carried out in the Physiotherapy OPD at Vikhe Patil Memorial Hospital. A cross-sectional study was designed. Purposive sampling was used in the sampling process. The sample size for this study was 50. Consent form for a six-month study was made. Peak flow metre, Sterilium, Cotton wool, Weighing machine and Measuring tape, Post COVID-19 Functional status scale, 2 cones, stop watch, Pedometer, tape measure were among the materials utilised. Patients with COVID 19 infection who were recovered and willing to participate, both genders, ages 20 to 55, and able to walk without assistance met the inclusion criteria. Patients who were not cooperative or who had additional systemic illnesses, such as diabetes, were excluded.\u0000 \u0000Result- A total of 50 patients entered the study who were in the age group of 20-55 yrs. We compare PEFR values among symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. The study shows that comparison of PEFR values between symptomatic and asymptomatic patients was not significant (p value 0.2265) and PEFR values of symptomatic patients were less than that of asymptomatic patients. The patients who were symptomatically ill were affected more and show symptom of pain, anxiety, depression rather than asymptomatic patients and there was no sign of functional limitation. There is no effect on endurance of the patients as such\u0000after recovery from COVID-19 infection.\u0000Conclusion- This study shows that there is effect of COVID on physical fitness of post COVID patients after recovery with respect to lung function capacity. Symptomatic patients were more affected than asymptomatic patients. The functional status of the post COVID patients is not affected, few of them suffered from pain, depression and anxiety after recovery. There is no effect on endurance in post COVID patients after recovery.","PeriodicalId":284305,"journal":{"name":"VIMS JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL THERAPY","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131867718","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}

Most of these fractures arise as a result of fall from a height or due to fall on an outstretched hand (FOOSH). Undisplaced fractures are best managed by immobilizing the area using a cast or a splint. Displaced fractures are managed surgically by closed reduction and percutaneous pinning fixation. Loss of flexion, extension, or hyperextension, post immobilization tends to be the main functional issue. Physiotherapy aims to help patients regain their range of motion quickly and prevent late complications.CASE DESCRIPTION- Presenting a case of 12Y/O female with a supracondylar fracture of humerus who fell on the stage while playing on left side and was diagnosed with X-ray. She was managed surgically by closed reduction and percutaneous pinning with K- wires. Patient presented with the following complains post-operatively, i.e., pain at the incision site, swelling around the elbow joint and reduced movement at the elbow and shoulder joint. Patient underwent a 4weeks physical therapy rehabilitation program after the surgery and showed marked improvement in pain score, range of motion, muscle strength and functional activities.RESULT- The results demonstrated significant improvement in range of motion, muscle strength and pain reduction after post assessment was done. CONCLUSION- Immediate Physiotherapy Intervention program which includes manual therapy & therapeutic exercises for a postoperative case of supracondylar fracture in paediatrics can facilitate the activities of daily living and improved quality of life.","PeriodicalId":284305,"journal":{"name":"VIMS JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL THERAPY","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125041185","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}
