Guidelines of the French Society of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery (SFORL) for vestibular rehabilitation in children with vestibular dysfunction. A systematic review
CONCLUSION: It is recommended that a vestibular assessment be carried out before VR, including a study of vestibulo-ocular reflex, otolithic function, and postural control. In cases of vestibular dysfunction, physiotherapy treatment is recommended from an early age to train different aspects of postural control, including anticipatory and reactive postural adjustments. VR adapted to the pediatric population is recommended for children whose vestibular dysfunction leads to functional disorders or symptoms of vertigo for those who have suffered head trauma. It is recommended that children with bilateral vestibular impairment...

Alternative models to support weight loss in chronic musculoskeletal conditions: effectiveness of a physiotherapist-delivered intensive diet programme for knee osteoarthritis, the POWER randomised controlled trial
Conclusion A VLED delivered by physiotherapists achieved clinically relevant weight loss and was safe for people with knee OA who were overweight or obese. The results have potential implications for future service models of care for OA and obesity.

Tele Therapy Sessions for Children with Neuro-Developmental Disorders: Parent ’s and Therapist’s Perspective
AbstractLockdown during Covid-19 pandemic had a negative impact on children with Neurodevelopment Disorders and their caregivers. We surveyed 100 parents of children (age 2 –18 years) cross-sectionally, who were receiving therapies from our institution and found that almost two-third of parents experienced disruption in service availability for their children due to lockdown. They received tele therapies (Physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and behav ior therapy) via telehealth program including video/audio calls. Most parents and therapy providers reported it to be beneficial in terms of parents conveni...

The Assessment and Response of Rehabilitation Professionals to Sudden Deterioration in Symptoms: An Analysis of the National Database in Japan
CONCLUSION: We attempted to identify problems analyzing the response by RPs to acute deterioration using the database and construct an appropriate response model. It resulted that RPs need to obtain patient information in advance and integrate/interpret it appropriately based on accurate assessment of conscious, circulation and respiration for rapid response. A model including integration/interpretation for appropriate post-response by RPs was constructed using the FRAM.PMID:38690533 | PMC:PMC11057387 | DOI:10.1298/ptr.E10272 (Source: Physical Therapy)

Family-centered Care for Children with Disabilities in Japan-the Origin and Future of the "Ryouiku"
Phys Ther Res. 2024;27(1):1-5. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0029. Epub 2024 Mar 12.ABSTRACTFamily-centered care is recommended as the best practice in pediatric physiotherapy. It is a philosophy that pediatric physiotherapists should be familiar with, as it relates to the health of the child as well as the family. However, family-centered care has not been adequately taught in physiotherapy education in Japan. The term "Ryouiku" was coined in 1940 in Japan. The concept of the Ryouiku is essentially Evidence-Based Medicine and is the very essence of family-centered care with a focus on function. By re-thinking the Ryouiku and applying...

The Effect of Total Knee Replacement on Dual-Task Gait Performance in Older Adults
CONCLUSION: The absence of an effect of TKR on gait DTCs can potentially underlie increased fall risk after TKR. Results from this study emphasize the significance of balance as a measure and focal point for rehabilitation after TKR.IMPACT: This study contributes to our understanding of the attentional cost of walking in people before and after TKR, as well as to factors associated with it. Results from this work can assist formulation of rehabilitation programs for people with knee osteoarthritis.PMID:38691445 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzae067 (Source: Physical Therapy)
