Résumé Ce travail porte sur la fasciathérapie appliquée aux douleurs de la fibromyalgie, et tente de répondre à la question « quels sont les effets de la fasciathérapie sur la douleur et ses consé- quences, ainsi que sur le vécu des patients qui souffrent de fibromyalgie ? » Pour cela, j’ai présenté le champ théorique des douleurs chroniques et du syndrome fibromyalgique, ainsi que celui des thérapies s’adressant aux fascias et notamment la fasciathérapie méthode Danis Bois. J’ai abordé cette recherche avec une posture double pour tenter d’appréhender la complexité de la douleur. La première, qualitative, est basée sur des …
Improving Cancer Survivorships: Targeting Physical Activity And Inactivity At Teachable Moments, Siew Yim Loh Assoc Prof
Improving Cancer Survivorships: Targeting Physical Activity And Inactivity At Teachable Moments, Siew Yim Loh Assoc Prof
Siew Yim Loh
This article presents a brief overview on the importance of adopting healthy behavior during and after the completion of primary cancer treatment. Increasing evidences are advocating physical activity engagement in cancer survivors due to its convincing beneficial outcomes. Today, outcomes from numerous trials confirmed the need to examine beyond physical activity engagement, into physical inactivity as an independent factor for cancer recurrences. Reducing cancer-risk related behaviors via increase physical activity and reduce inactivity is now receiving much attention in the field of cancer survivorship. Both realms of activity and inactivity are now acknowledged as influential independent factors contributing to better …

Barriers To Participation In A Randomized Controlled Trial Of, Siew Yim Loh Assoc Prof
Siew Yim Loh
range from patient-related, through institutional-related to staff-related factors. This paper highlights the low response rate and the recruitment barriers faced in our Qigong exercises trial. Materials and Method: The Qigong trial is a three-arm trial with a priori power size of 114 patients for 80% power. The University Malaya Medical Centre database showed a total of 1,933 patients from 2006-2010 and 751 patients met our inclusion criteria. These patients were approached via telephone interview. 131 out of 197 patients attended the trial and the final response rate was 48% (n=95/197). Results: Multiple barriers were identified, and were regrouped as patientrelated, …
The Effectiveness Of Secondary Prevention Lifestyle Interventions Designed To Change Lifestyle Behavior Following Stroke: Summary Of A Systematic Review, Maggie Lawrence, Susan Kerr, Caroline Mcvey, John Godwin
The Effectiveness Of Secondary Prevention Lifestyle Interventions Designed To Change Lifestyle Behavior Following Stroke: Summary Of A Systematic Review, Maggie Lawrence, Susan Kerr, Caroline Mcvey, John Godwin
Dr. Maggie Lawrence
Background A feature of stroke is that it recurs (25% within
five-years). Risk factors for stroke and recurrent stroke
include smoking, alcohol consumption, poor diet, and physical
inactivity.
Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of secondary prevention
lifestyle interventions designed to change lifestyle behavior
following stroke. This short paper presents a summary of the
systematic review process and findings.
Methods Ten major databases were searched using subject
headings and key words. Papers were screened using
review-specific criteria. Critical appraisal and data extraction
were conducted independently by two reviewers. Data were
pooled in statistical meta-analysis; where this was not possible
findings were …

Tobacco And Alcohol-Related Interventions For People With Mild-Moderate Intellectual Disabilities: A Systematic Review Of The Literature., Susan Kerr, Maggie Lawrence, Chris Darbyshire, Alan Middleton, Lorna Fitzsimmons
Dr. Maggie Lawrence
Background The behavioural determinants of health among people with mild/moderate intellectual disabilities are of increasing concern (ID). With the closure of long stay institutions, more people with ID are living in the community. As they lead more ordinary and less restricted lives, people with ID may be exposed to social and environmental pressures that encourage them to adopt behaviours that impact negatively on their health. Levels of smoking and alcohol consumption in this client group are of particular concern. Methods We undertook a mixed method review of the literature, aiming to assess the Feasibility, Appropriateness, Meaningfulness and Effectiveness (FAME) of …
Defining And Measuring Patient-Centred Care: An Example From A Mixed Methods Systematic Review Of The Stroke Literature., Maggie Lawrence, Sue Kinn
Defining And Measuring Patient-Centred Care: An Example From A Mixed Methods Systematic Review Of The Stroke Literature., Maggie Lawrence, Sue Kinn
Dr. Maggie Lawrence
Background
Involving patients in the determination of their care is increasingly important, and healthcare professionals worldwide have recognised a need for clinical outcome measures and interventions that facilitate patient-centred care delivery in a range of settings.
Aim
A mixed-methods review was conducted, which aimed to identify stroke-specific patient-centred outcome measures, patient-centred interventions, and family-centred interventions.
Search strategy
Databases searched included MEDLINE and PsycINFO; search strings were based on MeSH terms and keywords associated with the terms ‘stroke’ and ‘patient-centred’.
Data extraction and analysis
Descriptive statistics were used to report quantitative data; papers included in the review were also underwent thematic …
Pirandello’S Analogy: A Source For A Better Understanding Of The Social Impact Of Stroke, M.A.C. Van Haaren, Maggie Lawrence, P.H. Goossens, B. Van Den Bossche, M.J.H. Wermer, A.A. Kaptein
Pirandello’S Analogy: A Source For A Better Understanding Of The Social Impact Of Stroke, M.A.C. Van Haaren, Maggie Lawrence, P.H. Goossens, B. Van Den Bossche, M.J.H. Wermer, A.A. Kaptein
Dr. Maggie Lawrence
Background: Suffering a stroke has major implications for the patient. To understand human suffering, one should understand society. Pirandello described society as a higher entity than the individual, thereby justifying human adaptability to society. We explore a qualitative finding that suggests that social trends may influence how stroke patients prioritize aspects of their rehabilitation. Methods: We compare a contemporary patient’s experience of stroke recovery with that of a fictional character from the works of Luigi Pirandello. Both patients had two main residual symptoms: hemiparesis and aphasia. Results: The rehabilitation priorities of the two patients differed, and appeared to reflect the …
Determining The Needs, Priorities, And Desired Rehabilitation Outcomes Of Young Adults Who Have Had A Stroke, Maggie Lawrence, Sue Kinn
Determining The Needs, Priorities, And Desired Rehabilitation Outcomes Of Young Adults Who Have Had A Stroke, Maggie Lawrence, Sue Kinn
Dr. Maggie Lawrence
Background: Guidelines state that young adults’ rehabilitation needs and priorities following stroke are different from older adults’. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding young adults’ perspectives of their needs and priorities.
Aims: To gain an understanding of young adults’ experience of stroke and associated rehabilitation needs, priorities and desired outcomes.
Methods: Longitudinal data were gathered using unstructured interviews and analysed using phenomenological reduction.
Results: Ten young adults took part in up to four interviews over two years. An overarching theme, Embodied Disorientation, and three sub-themes: Mortal Body, Situated Body, and Embodied Perception of Difference, described the young adults’ …

Objective: This feature article on knowledge transfer presents principles and strategies to support the development of short communiqués to end-users. Participants: Formal and informal knowledge brokers are the targeted users of the strategies. Methods: Research studies and conceptual literature in knowledge transfer informed the development of brief-Knowledge Transfer (b-KT) principles. Principles are explained and a sample of how they informed the development of KIT-Tip Sheets is offered to promote ways to use principles in knowledge dissemination. Results: b-KT principles can be used as a framework to guide the development of short communiqués by knowledge brokers in work practice but also …
