Background: Barbotage (needling and lavage) is often applied in the treatment of calcific tendinitis rotator cuff (RCCT). In a previously published randomized controlled trial, we reported superior clinical radiological 1-year outcomes for barbotage combined with corticosteroid injection subacromial bursa (SAIC) compared an isolated SAIC. There are no trials midterm or long-term follow-up available. Purpose: To compare 5-year results 2 regularly treatments RCCT: ultrasound (US)–guided SAIC...
Summary Venepuncture for routine blood sampling is a very distressing experience considerable number of children. Not only do they express high levels distress during venepuncture but also in anticipation the procedure. Therefore, prevention or reduction should focus on both phases To this end, three preparation elements were combined: local anaesthesia skin, provision sensory and procedural information, involvement parent. In order to test effect integrated procedure reactions young...
Shoulder complaints are common in the elderly and hamper daily functioning. These often caused by tears muscle-tendon units of rotator cuff (RC). The four RC muscles stabilize shoulder joint. While some frequently torn others remain intact. pathological changes poorly understood. We investigated muscle pathology combining radiological histological procedures. measured cross sectional area (CSA) fatty infiltration from Magnetic Resonance Imaging with Arthrography subjects without (N=294)...
The aim of this study was to determine the effect radial extracorporeal shock-wave therapy (rESWT) on patients with chronic tendinitis rotator cuff. This a randomised controlled trial in which 82 (mean age 47 years (24 67)) diagnosed clinically were randomly allocated treatment group who received low-dose rESWT (three sessions at an interval 10 14 days, 2000 pulses, 0.11 mJ/mm 2 , 8 Hz) or placebo group, follow-up six months. and treating orthopaedic surgeon, both blinded treatment,...
The discordance between the objective and subjective symptoms of asthma has major effects on proper medication management. In 2 studies influence respiratory sounds in process symptom perception underlying breathlessness was investigated children aged 7-17 years. Experiment 1, asthmatic wheezing were recorded 16 during histamine-induced airway obstruction. Breathlessness correlated significantly with rank order amount wheezing, but not lung function. 2, after standardized physical exercise,...
Objective : To test the cultural invariance of Impact-on-Family Scale in order to make cross-cultural comparisons.
Since long-term outcome of teres major tendon transfer surgery for irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff (RC) tears is largely unknown, the primary aim this study was to evaluate transfer. We also aimed report on results a cohort patients with similar indication that underwent latissimus dorsi transfer.Patients and Methods In prospective study, we reported 20 consecutive massive RC tears. Additionally, (n = 19). The mean age 60 years (47 77). Outcomes included Constant score (CS), pain at...
An automated system has been developed for the detection of sound patterns suggestive airways obstruction in long term recordings. The first step, presented here, was tracheal recording during histamine-induced obstruction.The sounds 29 children aged 8-19 years with asthma were recorded caused by histamine inhalation using a continuous respiratory telemetry and computer analysis. Sound analysed, classified, related to measured lung function tests based on forced expiratory volume one second...
In approximately 29% to 34% of all patients with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS) there is no anatomic explanation for symptoms, and behavioral aspects and/or central mechanisms may play a more important role than previously assumed. A possible in SAPS insufficient active depression the humerus during abduction by adductor muscles. Although muscles, specifically teres major, have most contribution abduction, these muscles not been well studied SAPS.Do altered contraction patterns arm...
