Purpose
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of a dance program, combined with conventional treatments, on the motor recovery and quality of life of stroke survivors in comparison with conventional treatments alone.
Materials and methods
A total of 16 subacute stroke survivors were randomized into two groups: a dance group (D...
Objective
To examine the feasibility, the criterion, and the construct convergent validity of the 2-Minute Walk Test (2MWT) and the 10-Meter Walk Test (10MeWT) against the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) to assess walking capacity in people with cancer. The criterion concurrent validity of a self-test version of the 10MeWT (10MeWTself-test) was also eval...
Background
Smartphone use during postural-locomotor tasks is an everyday activity for individuals of all ages in diverse environmental situations and with various health conditions. Nevertheless, the use of smartphones during walking is responsible for many accidents.
Research question
This systematic review and meta-analysis examined spatiotempor...
Introduction :
Feeling pleasure while moving is essential to finding the motivation to engage in the rehabilitation after stroke. Dance is a motivating activity that includes social interaction, stimulation through music and the pleasure of moving despite disease. Nevertheless, very few studies have examined the dance practice in a subacute stroke...
Objective
The objective of this study was to assess, for individuals with hemiparesis after a stroke in subacute phase, the validity and reliability of center of pressure (CoP) parameters measured during sitting balance on an unstable support.
Materials and methods
Thirty-two individuals after stroke were included in this observational study for v...
Introduction
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a frequent side effect of some chemotherapies that can cause postural control disorders and has a serious impact on quality of life (QoL). An enhanced understanding of postural control dysfunction could help build a systematic and accurate assessment as well as specific exercises to limit t...
The psychometric qualities of the proprioception and dynamic trunk control tests have rarely been studied in individuals after stroke.
Objective:
To investigate the reliability and validity of the Trunk Position Sense Test (TPS) and Modified Functional Reach Test (MFRT) in persons after stroke.
Methods:
Thirty-two participants were included. Th...
RÉSUMÉ
Plus de 81 % des enfants ne respectent pas les recommandations d’activité physique. Or, ce
moyen préventif est très efficace pour limiter les risques de surpoids, de maladies chroniques
et mentales tout en favorisant un bon développement moteur. Les campagnes de promotion
ciblent principalement les adultes alors que les enfants qui ont un co...
Objective : The assessment of the sitting balance on a stabilometric platform allows the analysis of trunk control after a stroke. The aim was to assess the reliability (intra- and inter-rater) and the validity of center of pressure (CP) parameters measured during unstable sitting (anterioposterior - AP or mediolateral - ML) for individuals after s...
Revue Mains Libres 2021; 3:155-164.
Contexte : Après un accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC), la capacité de contrôle du tronc est liée aux mécanismes d’équilibration debout et à la marche. Elle devrait systématiquement être testée dès le début de la rééducation.
Objectif : L’objectif était d’évaluer la fiabilité intra et inter-évaluateur des paramè...
Geneva School of Health (GSoH) hosts five programs that currently train 921 students, 108 of whom in physiotherapy. Since March 2020, Europe has faced the COVID-19 epidemic. In March 2020, this well organized physiotherapy pre graduated training and the research institute were suddenly hit by COVID-19 leading to many adaptations due to general conf...
Introduction
Bariatric surgery leads to loss of fat and fat-free mass (FFM). To preserve FFM it is recommended that weight loss interventions are accompanied by physical activity. However, it remains unknown if functional capacities spontaneously improve after a substantial weight loss. Study’s aim was to assess the effect of bariatric surgery on s...
Introduction
67% des personnes âgées sont sédentaire avec des conséquences dévastatrices sur la santé psychique et physique [1]. Les personnes réalisant moins de 5000 pas par jour devraient être considérées à risque, alors que les personnes âgées sont proches de 2000 pas, ce qui peut être aggravé en cas de handicap [2]. Les personnes sédentaires se...
Les personnes âgées et les personnes présentant un handicap ont un taux de sédentarité
très élevé qui peut induire un isolement progressif pouvant mettre en péril le vieillissement en bonne santé. Les freins à l’activité physique sont principalement les difficultés d’accès, les troubles cognitivo-moteurs et le manque de motivation. Ainsi, il est né...
Introduction : Réaliser un programme d’activité physique en hypoxie serait bénéfique pour la gestion du poids et pourrait donc être un outil thérapeutique intéressant pour les per‑sonnes ayant une obésité. En plus des bienfaits sur la perte de poids, l’hypoxie pourrait améliorer certaines comorbi‑dités cardiométaboliques ou mécaniques liées à l’obé...
Résumé
Introduction
Après un accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC), les déficits sensori-moteurs du tronc doivent être testés. Cependant, les qualités psychométriques des tests au niveau du tronc ont été peu étudiées. L’objectif était d’évaluer la fiabilité intra et inter-évaluateur du Modified Functional Reach Test (MFRT) et du test de sens position...
