Efektivitas Blood Flow Restriction Exercise Dalam Peningkatan Quadricep Strength Pada Pasien Post Acl Rekonstruksi : Literature Review, Auvin Joe Ginting Jul 2024

Efektivitas Blood Flow Restriction Exercise Dalam Peningkatan Quadricep Strength Pada Pasien Post Acl Rekonstruksi : Literature Review, Auvin Joe Ginting

Jurnal Fisioterapi Terapan Indonesia

This article aims to evaluate the Effectiveness of Blood Flow Restriction Exercise in Improving Quadriceps Strength in Patients with ACL Reconstruction. This project is a literature study in narrative form. The background for conducting this research is the high incidence of ACL tears, ranging from 78 to 81 cases per 100,000 population worldwide in a year. The most common surgical treatment provided is ACL reconstruction. Quadriceps strength reduction after 6 months post-operation reaches 20% compared to pre-operation. From the symptoms and clinical complaints of quadriceps muscle weakness, one of the interventions that can be performed is Blood Flow Restriction …


Posture And Injury Prevention Program For High School Musicians, Clifford C. Scott, Cassandra Nelson Jul 2024

Posture And Injury Prevention Program For High School Musicians, Clifford C. Scott, Cassandra Nelson

Summer 2024 OTD Capstone Symposium

Musicians face many musculoskeletal-related injuries due to overuse and repetitive motions (Gembris et al., 2020). These injuries can be mitigated by addressing posture as well as methods to prevent injuries and promote healthier playing. The proposed capstone program is occupationally based and developed to address posture and prevent musculoskeletal injuries among musicians. Occupational therapy can help musicians prevent and treat the development of postural asymmetries and musculoskeletal injuries that inhibit occupational participation and performance in playing their instruments (Ting et al., 2019).


The Role Of Occupational Therapy On Sexuality And Intimacy In Women With Disabilities, Diamond Escobedo, Cassandra Nelson Jul 2024

The Role Of Occupational Therapy On Sexuality And Intimacy In Women With Disabilities, Diamond Escobedo, Cassandra Nelson

Summer 2024 OTD Capstone Symposium

This project was developed to provide an educational program to spread advocacy and education about the stigmatization of women with disabilities, who are unable to interact in sexual relationships and intimacy. The occupational therapy perspective would be identified as solving the problem by providing education, resources, and adaptive devices to individuals who have a disability and experience deficits in sexual intimacy through the implementation of a program.

An Occupational Therapy Guide To Promoting Social And Emotional Health Among Youth In A Post Covid-19 Era, Alejandra Olvera, Jazminne Orozco Arteaga

Summer 2024 OTD Capstone Symposium

The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to a significant rise in mental health challenges among children and adolescents, impacting their daily performance and overall well-being. These psychosocial effects underscore an urgent need for comprehensive support from educators, parents, and communities to effectively address the increasing mental and behavioral health issues among young individuals.

The purpose of this project was to implement a program that would improve the social and emotional health of youth and adolescents, as well as to educate educators and parents. By fostering resilience and promoting mental well-being among youth and adolescents, the program's initiatives seek to mitigate the …

Respiratory deficits after C2 hemisection (C2Hx) have been well documented through single-sex investigations. Although ovarian sex hormones enable enhanced respiratory recovery observed in females 2 wk post-C2Hx, it remains unknown if sex impacts spontaneous respiratory recovery at chronic time points. We conducted a longitudinal study to provide a comprehensive sex-based characterization of respiratory neuromuscular recovery for 8 wk after C2Hx. We recorded ventilation and chronic diaphragm electromyography (EMG) output in awake, behaving animals, phrenic motor output in anesthetized animals, and performed diaphragm muscle histology in chronically injured male and female rodents. Our results show that females expressed a greater recovery …


Noninvasive Estimation Of Skeletal Muscle Oxygen Consumption Rate And Microvascular Reactivity In Chronic Stroke Survivors Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, Allison S. Hyngstrom, Jennifer N. Nguyen, David D. Gutterman, Brian D. Schmit, Emilie A. Klevenow, Matthew J. Durand Jul 2024

Noninvasive Estimation Of Skeletal Muscle Oxygen Consumption Rate And Microvascular Reactivity In Chronic Stroke Survivors Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, Allison S. Hyngstrom, Jennifer N. Nguyen, David D. Gutterman, Brian D. Schmit, Emilie A. Klevenow, Matthew J. Durand

Physical Therapy Faculty Research and Publications

Understanding post-stroke changes in skeletal muscle oxidative metabolism and microvascular reactivity could help create therapeutic targets that optimize rehabilitative interventions. Due to disuse atrophy, we hypothesized that basal muscle oxygen consumption rate and microvascular endothelial function would be impaired in the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle of the affected leg of chronic stroke survivors compared with the nonaffected leg and versus matched controls. Fifteen chronic stroke survivors (10 females) and 15 matched controls (9 females) completed this study. A near-infrared spectroscopy oximeter measured tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) of the TA in both legs of stroke survivors and the dominant …


Reduced Oxygen Desaturation In The Vastus Lateralis Of Chronic Stroke Survivors During Graded Muscle Contractions, Allison S. Hyngstrom, Jennifer N. Nguyen, Spencer A. Murphy, Stephanie C. Raab, Brian D. Schmit, David D. Gutterman, Matthew J. Durand Jul 2024

Reduced Oxygen Desaturation In The Vastus Lateralis Of Chronic Stroke Survivors During Graded Muscle Contractions, Allison S. Hyngstrom, Jennifer N. Nguyen, Spencer A. Murphy, Stephanie C. Raab, Brian D. Schmit, David D. Gutterman, Matthew J. Durand

Physical Therapy Faculty Research and Publications

Background

Few studies have examined changes in skeletal muscle physiology post-stroke. This study examined changes in tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) of the vastus lateralis (VL) muscle of stroke survivors and age-matched control participants during maximal and submaximal isometric contractions of the knee extensor muscles.

Objectives

We hypothesized that tissue oxygen desaturation (ΔStO2) during knee extensor muscle contractions would be less in the VL in the paretic vs. the non-paretic and control legs.

Methods

Ten chronic stroke survivors (>6 months post-stroke) with lower extremity muscle weakness and 10 age-matched controls completed this prospective cohort study. Maximum …
