Objective The incidence of hip fractures is increasing worldwide with the aging population, causing a challenge to healthcare systems due associated morbidities and high risk mortality. After in frail geriatric patients, existing comorbidities worsen new complications are prone occur. Comprehensive rehabilitation essential for promoting physical function recovery minimizing complications, which can be achieved through multidisciplinary approach. Recommendations required assist providers...
Abstract Background: A computerized cognitive rehabilitation program can be used to treat patients with mild impairment or dementia. We developed a new (Bettercog) that contained various treatment programs for training This study was conducted compare the clinical efficacy of Bettercog and computer-assisted (COMCOG) has had previously proven in Methods: Randomized, single-blind comparison pilot 20 elderly decline—eight men 12 women—with an average age 74.3 years. trains not only memory...
Regional Cardiocerebrovascular Centers (RCCs)—a Korean government initiative—seek to reduce medical gaps across regions, and their cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs are expected model post-acute care for the CR program. Accordingly, this study aimed evaluate current status of in RCCs. We distributed surveys on condition, activity, barriers 12 RCCs different provinces. The results revealed significant annual number acute myocardial infarction admissions, candidates, capacity, density...
Though clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for cardiac rehabilitation (CR) are an effective and widely used treatment method worldwide, they as yet not accepted in Korea. Given that cardiovascular disease is the second leading cause of death Korea, it urgent CR programs be developed. In 2008, Government Korea implemented at 11 university hospitals part its Regional Cardio-Cerebrovascular Center Project, three additional medical facilities will added 2019. addition, owing to promotion...
Caudal epidural injection (CEI) is one of the most common treatments for low-back pain with sciatica. CEI rarely leads to neurologic complications. We report a case persistent cauda equina syndrome after CEI. A 44-year-old male patient severe L4 and L5 spinal ste-nosis underwent The solution consisted bupivacaine, hyaluronidase, triamcinolone acetonide, normal saline. He experienced motor weakness sensory loss in both lower extremities neurogenic bladder more than 1 year procedure. His ankle...
To evaluate the potential feasibility of application extended International Classification Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Core Set for stroke.We retrospectively reviewed medical records 40 stroke outpatients (>6 months after onset) admitted to Department Rehabilitation Medicine comprehensive rehabilitation. Clinical information patients were respectively evaluated link 166 second-level categories ICF stroke.Clinical could be linked 111 different categories, 58 body functions...
The participation rate for cardiac rehabilitation (CR) remains low in some Europe and Asia including Korea.To investigate effects of CR on prognosis improvements terms recurrence, readmission, revascularization, mortality rates patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) Korea.A retrospective cohort study.Eleven Tertiary Hospitals In Korea (ETHIK Study).Data from a total 7299 between January 2012 December 2015 were collected, which data 7136 linked to insurance claims data. the final...
Spinal cord infarction, especially anterior spinal artery syndrome, is a relatively rare disease. We report case of infarction caused by thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm with intraluminal thrombus. A 52-year-old man presented sudden onset paraplegia. At first, he was diagnosed cervical myelopathy due to C6-7 herniated intervertebral disc, and had an operation for discetomy interbody fusion. Approximately 1 month after the operation, transferred department rehabilitation in our hospital....
DNA methylation is the most common and well-characterized epigenetic change in human cancer. Recently, an association between prostate cancer susceptibility candidate ( PRAC ) genitourinary was proposed. The aim of present study to evaluate status clinicopathological parameters prognosis long-term follow-up primary nonmuscle invasive bladder (NMIBC). clinical relevance determined 136 specimens (eight normal controls [NCs] 128 NMIBCs) using quantitative pyrosequencing analysis. significantly...
Abstract We present a case report of patient with history diaphragmatic rupture who had persistent dyspnea for 9 months after primary surgical repair right caused by car accident. A phrenic nerve conduction study was performed, which demonstrated rare accompanying ipsilateral injury resultant hemidiaphragmatic paralysis. Aerobic exercise therapy the purpose improving endurance and dietary modification weight reduction were prescribed continued 6 months. The intensity based on percentage...
Objective To determine the age-related changes in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) outcomes, which includes hemodynamic and metabolic factors, patients with myocardial infarction (MI). Methods CR was administered for 8 weeks to 32 men (mean age, 54.0±8.8 years) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention acute MI between July 2012 January 2016. The exercise tolerance tests were performed before after CR. results stratified based on a cut-off age of 55 years. Results In whole patient group,...
We report a case of 44-year-old patient with paralysis the left leg who had thoracic epidural catheterization after general anesthesia for abdominal surgery. Sensory losses below T10 and motor weakness occurred Magnetic resonance image study demonstrated well-defined intramedullary linear high signal intensity lesion on T2-weighted low-signal T1-weighted in spinal cord between T9 L1 vertebral level, enhancements T8 vertebra cauda equina. Electrodiagnostic examination revealed lumbosacral...

Given that cardiovascular disease is the second leading cause of death Korea, it urgent CR programs be developed. In 2008, Government Korea implemented at 11 university hospitals part its Regional Cardio-Cerebrovascular Center Project, 3 additional medical facilities will added 2019. addition, owing to promotion nationwide...
The percentage of patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation programs (CRP) is very low (30-40%), and hospitals providing CRP are either insufficient or lacking, even in countries with advanced medical care; therefore, this study aims to investigate the barriers, as well compare differences between hospitals, without CRP. We conducted a survey, which questionnaire was distributed through post email 607 specialists who work at 164 performing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). results...
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a prognostic management strategy to help patients with CVD achieve good quality of life and lower the rates recurrence, readmission, premature death from disease. Globally, cardiac poorly established in hospitals communities. Hence, this study aimed investigate discrepancies perceptions need for CR programs relevant health policies between directors policy personnel South Korea shed light on status establish practically superior effective strategies promote...
In Korea, the actual distribution of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) to clinical field is insufficient due many barriers for cardiovascular patients participate in CR. Community-based CR a useful alternative overcome these obstacles. Through nationwide survey, we investigated possibility regional medical and public health management institutes which can be charge community-based Korea.The questionnaires on recognition current available resources health-related institutions were developed with...
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has been one of the most important issues in global public health. The high recurrence risk patients with heart disease (CHD) led to importance post-discharge care and secondary prevention CHD. Previous studies provided binary results ACS risk; however, providing an individual patient are rare. In this study, we conducted a model which provides probability for each patient, along result, two datasets from Korea Health Insurance Review Assessment Service Chungbuk...
