The aim of this investigation was to assess resilience within an elderly population during postacute rehabilitation for orthopedic surgery and identify the role on outcomes by comparing hip fracture elective patients (total knee arthroplasty).We conducted a prospective study in department.On admission discharge, 80 aged over 60 years underwent multidimensional evaluation with Resilience Scale, Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Multidimensional Prognostic Index, World Health Organization...
Purpose: The aim of the current work is to provide a novel method for demonstrating modification single patient's performance on questionnaires and scales. minimal detectable change (MDC), statistics indicating in measure not attributable random variation, commonly used rehabilitation this purpose. However, MDC has some important drawbacks (e.g. it cannot be calculated scores from ordinal tests can only full questionnaire).Method: Review its limitations application McNemar test simulated...
Introduction: The main clinical manifestation of the novel Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is respiratory issues. Neurological manifestations are being increasingly recognized, including febrile seizures, headache, dizziness, and myalgia, as well encephalopathy, encephalitis, stroke, acute peripheral nerve diseases. Cerebral vasculitis rarely reported. We describe a case SARS-CoV-2 interstitial pneumonia complicated by flaccid tetraplegia due to Guillain-Barré...
[Purpose] This study evaluated a specific rehabilitation protocol using half squat after total knee reconstruction with distal femur megaprosthesis and tibial allograft-prosthesis composite. [Subject Methods] Squat execution was recorded by three-dimensional system before program on 28-year-old patient. duration, body center of mass trajectory, vertical range motion were determined. Step width joint angles symmetry (hip flexion, extension, rotation, ankle dorsal plantar flexion) estimated....
[Purpose] To quantitatively assess the effect of a personalized rehabilitation protocol after knee megaprosthesis. [Subject and Methods] The gait patterns 33-year-old male patient with synovial sarcoma were assessed by computerized analysis before 40 sessions. [Results] improved pattern. After rehabilitation, hip flexion was nearly symmetric, normalized affected limb flexion, ankle flexion. Ankle in/eversion asymmetric did not improve physiotherapy. Before physiotherapy, on side anticipated...
Abstract When stroke occurs in adulthood, mirror movements (MMs; involuntary occurring 1 hand when performing unilateral with the contralateral hand) paretic rarely occur. We present a case of an apparently healthy 54‐year‐old man presenting MMs his left (nondominant) hand. Further evaluation revealed diminished strength and dexterity hand, increased spinal excitability, decreased corticospinal occurrence ipsilateral motor responses, enlarged cortical representation, imaging findings...
The role of uric acid (UA) and Hyper Uricemia (HU) in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) patients have been very little studied.

Morton’s neuroma (MN) is a compressive neuropathy of the common plantar digital nerve, most commonly affecting third inter-digital space. The conservative approach first recommended treatment option. However, other different approaches have been proposed, offering several options treatments, where, degrees efficacy and safety reported. We treated five consecutive patients affected by MN through three indirect ultrasound-guided injections type I porcine collagen at weekly intervals. All were...
La sintomatologia depressiva e una problematica spesso sottovalutata nell’anziano la degenza ospedaliera puo aggravare o slatentizzare, venendo cosi ad interferire negativamente sull’esito dei trattamenti riabilitativi. Al contrario resilienza, intesa come capacita di resistere a eventi avversi quali l’ospedalizzazione, importante per ottenere un soddisfacente recupero funzionale attraverso riabilitazione. L’obiettivo del presente studio prospettico osservazionale indagare i rapporti tra...
