Abstract

Background: Patients with COVID-19 have experienced numerous symptoms prior to and after hospitalization, particularly in the respiratory system. The symptoms vary widely. Based on symptoms occurring through patients’ airways, most patients who have recovered from COVID-19 still have enduring symptoms of breathlessness. Pulmonary rehabilitation can be an option of rehabilitation programs directed to the patients. Aim: Explore the effectiveness of pulmonary rehabilitation specifically in COVID-19 patients. This literature review seeks to provide an agenda for further research related to adjusted treatment on pulmonary rehabilitation based on the patients’ needs. Material and Methods: The author synthesized, reviewed, and analyzed 10 literatures employing semi-systematic review technique. Results: The short-term aim of pulmonary rehabilitation is to reduce dyspnea and anxiety as well as depression, meanwhile the long-term aim is to maintain patients’ functional status to the maximum extent, improve quality of life and facilitate patients to return to performing daily activities. In addition, a 6-minute walking test and sit-to-stand test might be the alternative exercise to improve respiratory functions. Conclusion: Pulmonary rehabilitation should be provided during the treatment process, including inpatients or outpatients phase to ensure returning patients’ recovery of respiratory function. Moreover, exercise recommendations should be tailored based on patients’ specific needs.

Abstract

Background: Adequate function of wrist extensor muscles is essential for handgrip strength. Handgrip strength can be used as a health problem predictor in the future. Maintaining and increasing handgrip strength to reduce the risk of future mortality is noteworthy. Aim: To investigate the immediate effect of the kinesiotaping facilitation technique on the non-dominant wrist extensor muscles on handgrip strength of healthy individuals. Material and Methods: This study was conducted in August – September 2020. Twenty-two healthy men, aged 25 – 40 years and willing to participate in this study by signing the research agreement form was recruited from Medical Rehabilitation Departement RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya, and randomized into kinesiotaping group and placebo taping group. The kinesiotaping group received kinesiotaping facilitation technique Y strip 50% stretched on the non-dominant wrist extensor muscles. The placebo taping group received non-elastic adhesive tape Y strip on the non-dominant wrist extensor muscles. Handgrip strength was measured using hydraulic handgrip dynamometer before and 30 minutes after kinesiotaping facilitation technique and placebo taping applied. Results: Alteration of handgrip strength is significant increase in kinesiotaping group compared to placebo taping group (p=0.036). Conclusion: Kinesiotaping facilitation technique on non-dominant wrist extensor muscles can immediately increase handgrip strength of healthy individuals.

Abstract

Spinal Muscular atrophy (SMA) is a severe neuromuscular disorder which is a hereditary genetic disease. It is an incurable disease due to a defect in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. This report shows the benefit of rehabilitation intervention for the habilitation of a child with SMA Type 2. A 5-year-8-month-old female diagnosed with SMA by genetic testing complained of an inability to stand independently. Her rehabilitation problems were muscle power function, mobility of joint function, respiration function, exercise tolerance function, mobility, self-care, school education, and economic life. We provided rehabilitation programs with a regular follow-up for six months, including flexibility exercises, breathing exercises, cardiopulmonary endurance exercises, standing support exercises, wheeling exercises, and activities of daily living (ADL) exercise. We coordinated with a psychologist and social workers to assess the psychology and socioeconomic condition of the patient and caregiver. The muscle power function, which was evaluated by functional motor ability assessment using the Revised Hammersmith Scale for SMA (RHS), didn't show any deterioration, and she had improvement in the ADL capability. We resolved the mobility of joint function problem in this patient for the joint stiffness in both knees, and Cobb's angle of scoliosis was decreased. Respiration function assessed by peak cough flow and chest expansion showed an increase, and exercise tolerance function was also increased. The patient received some donations from donators to overcome economic issues assisted by a social worker for the activity chair, standing frame, and modified wheelchair. She could mobilize well using her own modified wheelchair, played with friends, and attended school. A follow-up by the psychologist showed good psychological conditions of the patient and family. The quality of life assessment of patients by PedsQL Neuromuscular Modul showed improved results, and the caregiver burden assessment by The Zarit Burden Interview had decreased. Rehabilitation intervention for the habilitation of a child with SMA Type 2 can maintain, restore, and promote the patient's functional ability to provide a better quality of life and control the caregiver burden.

Abstract

The radial nerve divides into two terminal branches the superficial radial nerve and the posterior interosseous nerve. Posterior interosseous nerve entrapment is associated with weakness in the extension of fingers, atrophy of the forearm muscles, and localized pain in the lateral aspect of the elbow and proximal forearm without sensory deficits. A 37-year-old man complained of difficulty of right finger extension (MMT 2) and persistent pain (VAS 5) at the forearm after a fall from a motorcycle six months before admission. We treated the patient with a physical rehabilitation program for three months and a total of 12 visits. Sonography and electromyography (EMG) biofeedback were performed to evaluate improvement after the physical rehabilitation program. After three months, the pain was relieved, and forearm extensor muscle strength increased. This showed that sonography and EMG biofeedback play a role in the detection and evaluation of muscle and nerve abnormality due to posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) syndrome.

Abstract

Background: Frailty is described by the collective decline of multiple physiological systems and increased vulnerability to multiple stressors. It is also linked to emotional distress and mental illness, especially depression. Both frailty and depression are correlated with many harmful consequences in the elderly, including decreased quality of life, escalated utilization of health services, and elevated morbidity and mortality. Given the prominence of frailty and depression in the elderly, and the deleterious consequences when they coexist, understanding the association between these factors is essential. Aim: This study aims to analyze the association between frailty and depression among the elderly in the nursing home. Material and Methods: This research was cross-sectional, and conducted at 3 nursing homes in South Sulawesi. Frailty and depression were measured. Frailty was assessed by Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS), while depression was evaluated by Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS). The data were analyzed with the Pearson test in SPSS 25. Results: There were 27 participants, consisting of females 19 (70.3%), and males 8 (29.6%) with a mean age was 73.15±8, included in this study. The mean EFS was 5.89±3.15. The mean GDS result was 3.74±3.14. Frailty has positive strong association with depression (r=0.6, p=0.001). Conclusion: There was a strong and substantial association between frailty and depression among the elderly in the nursing home.

Abstract

Background: One-third of post-stroke patients experience gait disturbance which is commonly associated with drop foot at three months after acute stroke. One of the orthoses that are proposed to improve gait in stroke patient is Wearable Tubing Assistive Walking Devices (WTAWD). It is hypothesized that WTAWD reduce the anterior tibial muscle activity which may become hyperactive during the swing phase in post-stroke patient with drop foot as an attempt to perform foot clearance. Aim: This study aims to investigate the effect of WTAWD on anterior tibial muscle activity during the swing phase in post-stroke patients. Material and Methods: Eleven patients, aged 30-60 years, with post-stroke hemiparesis in the subacute and chronic phase who fulfill the inclusion criteria are chosen as research subjects. The subjects were asked to wear WTAWD on the leg with weakness. Surface Electromyography (sEMG) examination of anterior tibial muscle was performed when the patient walked with and without wearing the WTAWD. Results: All 11 subjects completed the sessions and study protocol, with no losses throughout the study. None of the subjects reported any adverse effects during or after the intervention. A significant reduction of sEMG value on anterior tibial muscle activity was found when the patient wore WTAWD (p=0.001). Conclusion: There is an effect of WTAWD on decreasing anterior tibial muscle activity during the swing phase in post-stroke patients. Further research is needed to measure the kinematic and temporospatial values to increase knowledge about the effect of additional WTAWD to improve gait in stroke patients.

Abstract

Background: Overweight and obesity are major public health concerns globally and cause poor quality of life. Physical exercise plays a major role in reducing body weight, however, lack of time for exercise leads to a lack of regular exercise. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is proposed as an alternative exercise in dealing with overweight and obesity and ultimately increases the quality of life. Aim: To proposed as an alternative exercise in dealing with overweight and obesity and ultimately increases the quality of life. Material and Methods: A randomized-controlled trial was conducted in a rehabilitation outpatient clinic. Twenty-two subjects with overweight or obesity were randomly allocated into the intervention and control group. The intervention group received HIIT using a treadmill (HR rest + 80-90% HR reserve) with inclination changes for 30 minutes (preceded by warming up and ending with cooling, 5 minutes each), 3 times a week, for 2 weeks. The Control group received no intervention. Change of quality of life was assessed by using SF-36 before and after the intervention. Results: Subjects’ baseline body height, body weight, BMI, VO2Max, and SF-36 on both groups showed no significant differences (p<0.05). Subjects in the control group are older than the intervention group (34.82±3.09 vs 30.36±2.58, p=0.002). Significant improvement of SF-36 was found only in domains of physical function in the intervention group (p=0.02). However,he between-group comparison analysis showed no difference of SF-36 Δ Value between groups. Conclusion: High-intensity interval training can be proposed as an exercise therapy option to improve the quality of life of males with overweight and obesity. It is necessary to do further research on HIIT with a larger number of samples, longer time, group training, and combined with other exercises.

Abstract

Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a genetic disease typified by non-progressive and multiple congenital limb contractures. The incidence of AMC is 1 in 3,000 live births, occurring in two or more areas of the body. The etiology of the syndrome is largely unknown and is multifactorial. The aim of this article is to report a patient diagnosed with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita who received physical medical rehabilitation intervention. We report a seven-year-old girl who frequently had symptoms of joint deformities, movement limitation, and walking difficulties. The patient's fingers and toes also had muscle hypoplasia and pterygium. She was diagnosed with arthrogryposis when she was born. Several surgical interventions had been performed. Since four years old the patient started the physical medical rehabilitation programs. Owing to the integrated orthopedic and medical rehabilitation therapy, it showed some improvements. The patient could walk by holding onto a bench and eat or drink by herself. The patient had obtained the daily living exercises using the correct compensation technique using modified tools. Physical medical rehabilitation programs can improve the functional condition of AMC patients. The goals of a physical medical rehabilitation treatment are to gain the walking ability and improve the ability to independently perform activities of daily living. Stretching exercises, ROM exercises, splints, modified tools, and orthopedic surgery are essential for arthrogryposis patients.
