Postural changes in patients undergoing hyoid surgery for OSAS

2017

The hyoid bone is the only â suspended boneâ in our body, and its suspension system has an important role in posture maintenance. We studied postural modification in a group of patients affected by Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndromewho had undergone surgical treatment including hyoid suspension. The surgical procedure performed was section of supra- and infrahyoid muscle and mobilization of the hyoid bone through its suspension to the thyroid cartilage. We studied the postural changes with stabilometric tests. In the early post-operative (one week) follow-up, we performed a posturography test with closed eyes and occlusal disjunction, and saw a worsening of the average parameter of the centre…

Alteraciones posturográficas en fases agudas del latigazo cervical

2017

El control postural se logra en términos generales, a partir de la integración de la información proveniente de los sistemas visual, vestibular y propioceptivo a nivel del SNC y de su acción consiguiente sobre los arcos reflejos musculares que desencadena una acción biomecánica. La aparición de la posturografía como técnica cuantitativa para valorar el control postural ofrece muchas posibilidades para valorar patologías que cursan con clínica de inestabilidad. Con estos antecedentes, parecía necesario aprovechar las últimas tecnologías para el estudio del control postural en una patología tan controvertida y desconocida como el síndrome de latigazo cervical. Sabiendo que los pacientes afect…

Relationship between static posturography and gait analysis with the dizziness handicap inventory in vestibular patients

2012

[EN] Objective: The posturography evaluates postural control abnormalities in patients with vestibular disorders. On the other hand, the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) questionnaire quantifies the impact of these diseases on the patient’s daily life. This paper has aimed to know the relationship between posturography test results and the DHI scores. Material and Methods: A total of 29 subjects with vestibular diseases underwent a static posturography and gait analysis. The system used was NedSVE/IBV. The patients also answered DHI questions. Results: We found a statistically significant positive correlation between static posturography outcomes and physical-functional DHI scores. A stat…

Il ruolo del trattamento riabilitativo nei traumi distorsivi dell’articolazione tibio - peroneo - astragalica

2005

Nello studio della traumatologia da sport, interesse meritano le lesioni del collo del piede, dovuta a molteplici e differenti sollecitazioni dinamiche alle quali viene sottopsota l'articolazione tibio- tarsica, in conseguenza del carettere esplosivo dei movimeni in particolari circostanze. Il livello di controllo posturale rappresenta la cartina di tornasole della stabilità funzionale dell'arto inferiore. Per avere articolazioni stabili serve una buona stabilità statica e dinamica, altrimenti avremo come conseguenza alto rischio di lesioni articolari e muscolari, riduzione della potenza esprimibile, gesto tecnico disturbato da movimenti parassiti di compenso, aumento del dispendio energeti…

Gli effetti della dislessia sul controllo posturale: dall'analisi della letteratura ad uno studio pilota

Introduzione: L'American Psychiatric Association ha identificato la dislessia come un disturbo neurobiologico, caratterizzato da una difficoltà nell'acquisire informazioni della lettura, nonostante un'intelligenza adeguata. Tuttavia, con il passare del tempo, i ricercatori hanno trovato evidenze di deficit aggiuntivi al problema fonologico. Questi includevano deficit visivi, ridotta velocità di apprendimento e analisi, problemi dell'area motoria e deficit del sistema equilibrio. Lo scopo di questa tesi di dottorato era molteplice: 1) analizzare la letteratura scientifica, in una revisione sistematica, approfondendo il deficit motorio e posturale in bambini con dislessia; 2) valutare gli ada…

Skull-Cervico-Mandibular Unit: Correlation between Hyoid Bone, Thyroid Gland and Posture

2010

Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the postural control of the patient with pathology or surgery of the neck area. We have examined a group of subjects with thyroid pathology and destined to total thyroidectomy. Method: Our sample comprised 10 patients (7 female and 3 male; mean age 50,9±15,8). They have been submitted to postural examination, before and after total thyroidectomy, using the baropodometric platform, the scoliosismeter and the ocular convergence test. All the values obtained from the baropodometric tests executed before and after thyroidectomy have been compared using a statistical analysis. The T Student test and a significant level of 5% (a=0,05;p£,05) have been …
