Empirical studies evaluating stroke team rehabilitation interventions from a sustainability perspective are scarce. This paper highlights the significant role of multidisciplinary in promoting sustainable healthcare by applying principles healthcare. Climate change and air pollution risk factors for other cardiovascular diseases. Healthcare contributes to 5% global CO 2 emissions, exacerbating disease burden associated with climate change. The vulnerability individuals disabilities has been...
Objective To evaluate the effect of a moderate‐to‐high–intensity, aerobic and resistance exercise with person‐centered guidance in older adults rheumatoid arthritis ( RA ), through randomized controlled multicenter trial. Methods Older (ages 65–75 years) (n = 74) were to either 20‐week intervention at gym 36) or home‐based light intensity 38). Assessments performed baseline, 20 weeks, 12 months. The primary outcome was difference Health Assessment Questionnaire disability index HAQ DI )...
Background The digital transformation of health care is moving fast and development ways working take place in clinical practice. Objective aim this qualitative study was to explore how physiotherapists primary describe their approaches video-based physiotherapy. Methods based on semi-structured in-depth interviews with ten varying levels experience care. were analysed using content analysis. Results results show that adapting physiotherapy a new arena demanding process. Five categories...
Fatigue is described as a dominant and disturbing symptom of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) regardless the advances in pharmacological treatment. also found to correlate with depression. The objective was evaluate impact moderate-to-high intensity, aerobic resistance exercise person-centered guidance on fatigue, anxiety depression, older adults RA. Comparisons were made between (> 65 years) RA taking part 20-week intensity at gym (n = 36) or home-based light 38). Assessments performed baseline,...
Besides being health enhancing and disease preventing, exercise is also an important part of the management chronic conditions, including inflammatory joint rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, older adults with RA present a lower level physical activity than healthy adults. The aim this qualitative study was to explore aspects participation in moderate- high-intensity person-centred guidance influencing transition independent for RA. A interview conducted. In-depth interviews 16 aged between...
Exercise can improve immune health and is beneficial for physical function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the immunological mechanisms are largely unknown. We evaluated effect of moderate- to high intensity exercise person-centred guidance on cells system, focus regulatory cell populations, older adults RA.Older (≥65 years) RA were randomized either 20-weeks moderate - aerobic resistance (n = 24) or an active control group performing home-based light 25). Aerobic capacity,...
Abstract Background Physical activity and exercise are acknowledged as important parts in the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, long-term maintenance is known to be difficult. The aim this study was evaluate change physical fitness after four years older adults with RA who had previously participated person-centred guidance compared controls. Method A follow-up performed where (> 65 years) a randomized controlled trial they were allocated either or home-based,...
Digital technology has become increasingly relevant in physiotherapy, but little is known about communication and interaction video-based physiotherapy. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the experiences among patients physiotherapists, of digital,
Objective: To compare the heart rate variability (HRV) before and after a sub-maximal exercise test in women with fibromyalgia (FM) to result matched controls.Additionally, (HR) before, during test.Methods: Twenty-four FM 26 controls performed test.HRV was registered for 5 minutes at rest test.HR baseline, recovery. Results:The HRV of healthy group statistically different from but showed no such difference.HR significantly higher among than baseline up 75W lower peak (138/152 bpm,...
<h3>Background</h3> Today, more than 50% of persons with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) are over 65 years age (1). Little is known about the effects physical exercise in this group (>65 years). <h3>Objectives</h3> The aim randomized controlled study to investigate a person-centred progressive aerobic and resistance program, led by physiotherapist. <h3>Methods</h3> Seventy-four RA (24% men), mean 70 (SD 2.5), were recruited an interventions or active control group. intervention consisted...
<h3>Background</h3> RA is an autoimmune joint disease driven by complex immune dysregulation. Exercise can improve health and beneficial for physical function in elderly patients with RA, but the immunological mechanisms are largely unknown. <h3>Objectives</h3> We evaluated effect of a person-centred randomised controlled exercise programme on regulatory cell populations aged persons RA. <h3>Methods</h3> Aged were to either 20 week aerobic resistance intervention moderate-to high intensity...
