Background Early physical rehabilitation in the intensive care unit (ICU) has been shown to improve short-term clinical outcomes but long-term benefit not proven and optimum intensity of is known. Methods We conducted a randomised, parallel-group, allocation-concealed, assessor-blinded, controlled trial patients who had received at least 48 hours invasive or non-invasive ventilation. Participants were randomised 1:1 ratio, stratified by admitting ICU, admission type level independence. The...
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the motor cortex appears to alter pain perception in healthy adults and patients with chronic neuropathic pain. There is, however, emerging brain imaging evidence that left prefrontal is involved inhibition humans. Because may be descending inhibitory systems, present pilot study was conducted investigate whether via TMS might affect adults. Twenty no history depression or conditions volunteered participate a laboratory which thermal thresholds were...
Abstract This pilot study was designed to assess the perceptions of physical therapy (PT) and occupational (OT) students regarding use computer‐assisted pedagogy prosection‐oriented communications in laboratory component a human anatomy course at comprehensive health sciences university southeastern United States. The goal determine whether student changed over summer session verbal, visual, tactile, web‐based teaching methodologies. Pretest post‐test surveys were distributed online who...
Interest has grown internationally in the concept of physical literacy [Dudley, D. 2015. "A Conceptual Model Observed Physical Literacy." The Educator 72: 236–260; Edwards, L., A. Bryant, R. Keegan, K. Morgan, and Jones. 2017. "Definitions, Foundations Associations Literacy: A systematic Review." Sports Medicine 47 (1): 113–126] acknowledging holistic embodied learning. This notion learning resonates with play based approach Foundation Phase Wales for children aged 3–7. With early childhood...
The MiniMovers (MM) APP combines motor development theory with creativity expertise and has been designed to provide parents developmentally appropriate activities support children’s skills. This study investigates how enabled their physical development. Families participated in an 8-week MM programme of from the (Mini, Mighty Mega levels), pre- post-intervention data collected using multiple tools (e.g., motion capture system, force plate, eye-tracking glasses, videos). Mixed research...
Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) is approved by the FDA for treatment of both epilepsy and depression. Recent work has shown that VNS acutely affects pain perception in humans, actually increasing sensitivity momentarily while device firing. It unclear how this increased might change over time with it relate to longer-term therapeutic effects on pain. We describe a patient treatment-resistant depression history severe lumbar degenerative disease resultant chronic low back His symptoms seemed...
Patients discharged from Critical Care suffer excessive longer term morbidity and mortality. Physical mental health measures of quality life show a marked immediate fall after admission to with some recovery over time. However, physical function is still significantly reduced at 6 months. The National Institute for Health Excellence clinical guideline on rehabilitation critical illness, identified the need high-quality randomised controlled trials determine most effective strategy critically...
A 49-year old male with a past medical history of myocardial infarction and compartment syndromes requiring fasciotomies presented on five occasions hypovolemic shock. We describe his admissions presumptive diagnoses which required large volumes intravenous fluids, admission to intensive care for vasopressors renal replacement therapy. The presentations were always precipitated by prodrome fatigue pre-syncopal episodes. On last admission, diagnosis Idiopathic systemic capillary leak syndrome...
