Clinical outcomes of conservative versus surgical treatment for patients with proximal humeral fracture before physiotherapy
This study aimed to compare kinesiophobia, pain, range of motion (ROM), shoulder function, and Quality of life (QoL) in patients treated with either conservative (CT) versus surgical (ST) after PHF. In addition, it aimed to determine correlations between fear of movement and seconder outcome measures. This cross-sectional study enrolled the patients having 5-6 weeks (being permitted active movement) after being treated either CT or ST and receiving no physical therapy. Pain, passive and active ROMs, shoulder function, fear of movement, and QoL were evaluated. 42 patients were recruited. Kinesiophobia scores were similar (p...

Patients' perspective of fast-track total joint arthroplasty: a systematic review
Acta Orthop Belg. 2024 Mar;90(1):115-122. doi: 10.52628/90.1.12623.ABSTRACTThe introduction of fast-track protocols decreased length of hospital stay and improved rehabilitation and outcomes in total joint arthroplasty. Despite improved clinical results published in many papers, the patient perspective of these protocols is less investigated. Purpose of this study was to explore the patient perspective of fast-track protocols in arthroplasty. A systematic search for articles of patient experiences in total hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty was conducted using EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane, and Web-of-Science for articles pu...

Return to Sports After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Perm J. 2024 Apr 25:1-7. doi: 10.7812/TPP/23.132. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAnterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are one of the most common orthopedic injuries among athletes. Although a small proportion of patients with isolated tears can return to sports after completing a nonsurgical rehabilitation program, ACL reconstruction is frequently recommended for young athletes, especially those with concomitant knee injuries or symptomatic knee instability. Alongside emerging evidence for the effect of prehabilitation, the current standard of care for postoperative ACL physical therapy includes pain control, range of mot...

Inspiratory Muscle Training in Patients Living with Chronic Kidney Disease and Receiving Hemodialysis: Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
CONCLUSIONS: IMT improves MIP, MEP, and functional capacity in people living with CKD and receiving HD. IMT did not demonstrate significant results for lung function and quality of life. Effects on endothelial function and oxidative capacity remain uncertain.IMPACT: Inspiratory muscle training improves MIP, MEP, and functional capacity in people living with CKD and receiving HD, compared with conventional physical therapy or controls or placebo intervention. Increases in functional capacity in this population are extremely important because of the relationship with the survival of these people.PMID:38662569 | DOI:10.1093/p...

Effect of Menstrual Cycle Phase on Perceived Exertion During Aerobic Exercise in Eumenorrheic Women: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: The current meta-analysis showed that MC does not impact RPE. Although acute RPE is not impacted by MC phases, future studies and practitioners should pay attention to the impact of RPE session by session throughout the MC.PMID:38659609 | PMC:PMC11042688 (Source: Physical Therapy)
