Effects Of Treadmill Interventions On Infants With Developmental Delays Presenting With Mild And Severe Impairments: A Case Series, Eric Nguyen Spt, Nicolle Gerchak Spt
Effects Of Treadmill Interventions On Infants With Developmental Delays Presenting With Mild And Severe Impairments: A Case Series, Eric Nguyen Spt, Nicolle Gerchak Spt
Physical Therapy Research Symposium
Background: Physical development delays can severely limit a child’s ability to explore and learn about their environment. Evidence supports that this exploration promotes a child’s development in cognition, language acquisition, social skills, and further physical skills. Thus, interventions that target and improve early mobility can be highly valuable to a child’s life. Treadmill training in infants with developmental delays has shown to be an effective intervention in moving infants toward earlier independent walking and improved gross motor function.
Purpose: This study aims to explore the potential benefits of an established treadmill training program in infants with varying degrees of motor …
Covid Restrictions Did Not Decrease Physical Activity In Community-Dwelling Older Adults, Jillian Stoewer Spt, Cara Filce Spt, Holly J. Roberts Pt, Phd, Gcs, Ncs
Covid Restrictions Did Not Decrease Physical Activity In Community-Dwelling Older Adults, Jillian Stoewer Spt, Cara Filce Spt, Holly J. Roberts Pt, Phd, Gcs, Ncs
Physical Therapy Research Symposium
Background
Understanding the long-term impacts of COVID-19-related stay-at-home orders on physical activity can help clinicians prepare for consequences that may impact their patient populations.
Purpose
This study examined effects of the 2020 COVID-19 stay-at-home orders on physical activity levels in community-dwelling older adults including the number of hours they spent walking outside of the home and working/volunteering in the community.
Methods
Eighty-nine participants completed a monthly Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) for 10 months. One-way repeated measures ANOVAs with post hoc analyses were calculated to determine differences among PASE scores, PASE item 2 scores, and work/volunteer hours at …
A Systematic Review Of Chronic Pain Mechanism Differential Assessment Strategies For Physical Therapy, Kate Hovde Spt, Kenny Li Dpt, Kylie Wong Bs, Roger Allen Phd, Pt
A Systematic Review Of Chronic Pain Mechanism Differential Assessment Strategies For Physical Therapy, Kate Hovde Spt, Kenny Li Dpt, Kylie Wong Bs, Roger Allen Phd, Pt
Physical Therapy Research Symposium
Background
Recently, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) redefined pain, the American Physical Therapy Association proposed pain education guidelines, and a new pain mechanism category (PMC) was defined as “nociplastic pain”. IASP defines three PMCs - nociceptive, neuroplastic, and nociplastic.
Purpose
Identify current clinical assessment strategies for differentiating between nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic chronic pain, feasible for implementation by physical therapists (PTs).
Methods
In 2020, investigators independently searched databases for studies evaluating assessment methods differentiating “nociceptive,” “neuropathic,” “central,” “mixed pain” and “central sensitization,” with follow-up on “nociplastic pain”. A qualitative systematic review was performed utilizing defined inclusion …
Motivational Characteristics And Fulfillment Of Psychological Needs Among Physically Active Undergraduate Students, Rohan Cobb-Ozanne Spt, Kayla Renee Withers Spt, Danny Mcmillian Pt, Dsc
Motivational Characteristics And Fulfillment Of Psychological Needs Among Physically Active Undergraduate Students, Rohan Cobb-Ozanne Spt, Kayla Renee Withers Spt, Danny Mcmillian Pt, Dsc
Physical Therapy Research Symposium
Background: Physical activity (PA) guidelines describe positive correlations between PA and health outcomes. Self-determination theory (SDT) was used to identify motivational factors crucial to a physically active lifestyle.
Purpose: Identify and analyze how motivational characteristics, fulfillment of psychological needs, and individual experiences/beliefs influence PA.
Methods: Participants defined as moderately to vigorously physically active by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire were recruited using nominated sampling and public advertising. Motivational characteristics and psychological needs were assessed using SDT, Motives for Physical Activities Measure – Revised (MPAM-R), and The Basic Psychological Need Satisfaction and Frustration Scale – General (BPNSF). Semi-structured interviews were recorded …

Pain Catastrophizing, Pain Intensity And Perceived Injustice Do Not Predict Hrv In Acute Pain, Jacqueline Diulio Spt, Hailey Kettel Spt, Karin Steere Dpt, Phd
Physical Therapy Research Symposium
BACKGROUND: The nature of chronic pain conditions is well documented, with systemic biological, psychological and social factors interacting in an emergent fashion. Autonomic nervous system dysregulation, reflected as decreased heart rate variability (HRV), is suggested to be a biomarker of systemic dysfunction. Previous research has demonstrated correlations between numerous chronic pain disorders and diminished HRV.
PURPOSE: To determine the relationship between pain and HRV in the acute phase of pain, and to examine the predictive value of psychosocial variables on HRV. This study is meant to enhance our sense of how early in the pain experience decreased HRV may occur. …
