The Brazilian Practice Guidelines for Stroke Rehabilitation - Part II, developed by the Scientific Department of Neurological Academy Neurology (Academia Brasileira de Neurologia, in Portuguese), focuses on specific rehabilitation techniques to aid recovery from impairment and disability after stroke. As I, II is also based recently available evidence randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, other guidelines. covers disorders communication, dysphagia, postural control...
Objetivo: Identificar qual a importância do acolhimento pelo enfermeiro no ato da consulta de enfermagem na Atenção Primária à Saúde. Método: Trata-se uma pesquisa revisão narrativa, descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, cujo objetivo foi refletir sobre enfermagem. Resultados: O é como um quebra cabeças, demanda tempo e dedicação para realizar, mas também passível fragilidades. Isso pode ter reações bem significativas, indo desde desistência agendada até o abandono tratamento. Considerações...
O estudo desenvolveu um gel-creme com extrato de jabuticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora), rico em antocianinas, para aproveitar suas propriedades antioxidantes e regenerativas. Foram testadas formulações 0,5%, 2% 5% extrato, avaliando estabilidade, pH atividade água (0,9937 Aw) entre setembro 2024 março 2025. As amostras mantiveram características desejáveis, exceto a 2%, que apresentou colônia fúngica após cinco meses. mostraram potencial autoconservação estabilidade por cerca seis
Objective: In people with chronic stroke, we investigated the transfer of gains obtained after balance training virtual reality (VR) to an untrained task similar demands. Materials and Methods: This study included 29 stroke randomized into two groups: experimental (EG, n = 16) control (CG, 13). The EG performed three sessions VR using a platform-based videogame (Nintendo Wii Fit system™) for 1 week. CG received no intervention. Transfer was evaluated through tests on force platform Balance...
This study evaluated the impact of motor impairment (MI) on exercise capacity and quality life in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). One hundred ninety-two (≥50 years old) were divided according to Hoehn Yahr stages in: mild (stage I), moderate II), III), advanced MI IV). Exercise (6-min walk test [6MWT]) (Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire [PDQ-39]) obtained. In this context, 6MWT was progressively worse increasing severity (P<0.01). Patients achieved 39% predicted healthy subject,...
Poststroke hemiparesis presents with motor asymmetry and decreased postural control leading to functional limitations. Serious games (SG) for balance rehabilitation of people stroke may improve recovery, the visual auditory feedback provided by SGs helps explain therapeutic benefits. However, contribution SG combined kinesthetic verbal cues during training has not been investigated. The aim this study is compare effects two conditions an intervention, or without addition cues, on performance stroke.
Few studies have described physical therapy approaches to provide functional independence and reduce pain in individuals with dystonia. This report describes the treatment of a 46-year-old woman diagnosed idiopathic segmental axial For two years, patient was treated kinesiotherapy (active resisted movements stretching neck trunk muscles), abdominal taping (kinesiotaping techniques), training, sensory tricks. She assessed parts I, II III Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale...
A realização de exercícios físicos para pacientes com sequelas motoras pós-acidente vascular encefálico (AVE) é essencial a recuperação funcional. Programas educacionais podem facilitar repetição dos em casa e contribuir o tratamento. Este trabalho teve como objetivo elaborar aplicar um manual domiciliares AVE. O estudo consistiu duas etapas: na primeira foi elaborado (piloto) fotos textos simples compreensão. Foi realizada uma avaliação funcional cada paciente selecionados os mais...
A Síndrome de Pusher (SP) é uma alteração perceptual presente em 10% dos casos hemiparesia causada por Acidente Vascular Encefálico (AVE). Caracteriza-se queda para o lado parético, comportamento empurrar-se acometido com hemicorpo não parético e resistência à correção externa. Este estudo visou descrever a avaliação, tratamento evolução paciente esquerda SP, devido um AVE no hemisfério cerebral direito. Seis meses após lesão, realizou testes perceptuais (do desenho da figura humana,...
Objectives: To compare the effect of balance training performed in Virtual Reality environment (VR) with conventional on Body Functions, Activity Level and Participation level according to International Classification Functioning, Disability Health (ICF) model patients chronic sequels stroke. Study Design: A prospective, single-blind, parallel-group randomized clinical trial. Participants: Twenty-three Interventions: Fourteen sessions VR by using Nintendo Wii Fit™ games (NWF), for...
Objectives: A large number of studies have showed a positive effect training associated to virtual reality (VR) improve the function paretic upper limb (PUL) in patients with Stroke. However, there is lack evidences about transfer's potential gains obtained VR real environment. Thus, purpose this study was investigate transfer through motor PUL tested environment (RE) individuals chronic sequels stroke (CSS).
O presente estudo tem como finalidade analisar os principais riscos e desafios enfrentados pela gravidez na adolescência, partindo da perspectiva enfermagem. Objetiva investigar aspectos físicos, emocionais sociais maternidade precoce, buscando compreender a atuação enfermagem pode contribuir para mitigar esses promover saúde das adolescentes gestantes. Para isso, adotou-se uma metodologia de revisão integrativa literatura, qual foram analisados artigos científicos publicados entre 2010...
Background: Online sensory feedback has been considered fundamental for motor learning. The inputs experienced in previous attempts can be processed and compared to allow the online refinement of subsequent attempts, resulting on performance improvement. However, numerous studies have provided direct indirect evidence that learning new abilities is possible, regardless feedback. Objective: purpose this study was investigate influence a skill. Methods: We investigated immediate 28-day delayed...
Objectives: Despite the recent enlargement in usage of Virtual Reality environments for rehabilitation Stroke, potential transference/generalization gains to similar task performed real remains uncertain. Thus, purpose this study was verify obtained by training (VR) balance tasks environment patients with chronic sequels Stroke.
Aldama arenaria Baker (Asteraceae) is a species found in central-eastern state of São Paulo, with strongly thickened underground stem and roots alternate leaves several pharmacological activities [1]. In vitro antiproliferative activity studies indicate that aerial organs essential oil (EO) has potential when tested on solid cancer human cell lines [2,3]. The aim this study was evaluated the EO. Plants were collected at flowering stage Itirapina/SP submitted to EO extraction by...
