Aivohalvauskuntoutujien kävelykuntoutusta täydentävä fysioterapia

2011

Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tutkia aivohalvauskuntoutujien (AVH-kuntoutujien) kävelyharjoittelua täydentävän fysioterapian sisältöjä varhaisen akuuttivaiheen ja kroonisen vaiheen kuntoutuksessa ja eroavatko ne toisistaan. Lisäksi tavoitteena oli selvittää täydentävän fysioterapian yhteys kuntoutujien kävely- tai suorituskykyyn kuntoutuksen jälkeen. Tutkimusaineisto koostui kahdesta AVH-kuntoutujien intensiivisen kävelyharjoittelun satunnaistetusta ja kontrolloidusta kuntoutustutkimuksesta, joissa analysoitiin kävelyinterventio (yhteensä 300 min) ja tutkittiin kuntoutettavien saama täydentävä fysioterapia kolmen viikon kuntoutusajalta (Peurala ym. 2005, Peurala ym. 2009). Varhaisen a…

Reliable clinical assessment of stroke patients' postural control and development of physiotherapy in stroke rehabilitation

2007

The main goal of the long-standing clinical research project in the district of East-Savo was to develop an active role in physiotherapy for patients with stroke. A novel assessment instrument, the Postural Control and Balance for Stroke (PCBS) test, was developed side by side with the activating treatment. Present physiotherapy for stroke patients the emphasis is on the physiotherapist’s role, leaving no room for independent participation by the patient. In clinical work there are no systematically used methods either for the evaluation or follow-up of functional capacity, or for balance in stroke patients. This thesis includes reliability and validity studies of the Postural Control and B…

Recovery of mobility function and life-space mobility after ischemic stroke: the MOBITEC-Stroke study protocol

2020

Abstract Background Stroke is a major cause of disability and stroke incidence increases with age. Stroke frequently results in permanent limitations of mobility, and, consequently, the need for the help of others in activities of daily living. In order to optimize rehabilitative efforts and their functional outcomes, detailed knowledge of the functional recovery process, regarding mobility, is needed. Objectives of the MOBITEC-Stroke study are: 1.) To characterize mobility, including lower extremity physical function (LEPF) and life space (the geospatial extent of all of a person’s movements), and changes in mobility within the first year after stroke. 2.) To identify and characterize subg…

Rhythmic exercises as tools for rehabilitation following cerebellar stroke: A case study integrating music therapy and physiotherapy techniques

2022

Introduction: This article explores the use of music and multisensory stimuli in the construction of compensatory neural networks for motoric functioning in a patient recovering from cerebellar strokes (CS). This study aimed to address the real-world clinical concern of patients having a passive role in therapy, by arousing the client’s interest and self-motivation in rehabilitation. Method: The article presents a case study of a CS survivor, using data derived from rehabilitation sessions combining music therapy techniques with physiotherapy techniques to improve the fluency and accuracy of his motor performance. Qualitative and quantitative data are used to identify, describe, and evaluat…

European evidence-based recommendations for clinical assessment of upper limb in neurorehabilitation (CAULIN): data synthesis from systematic reviews…

2021

Abstract Background Technology-supported rehabilitation can help alleviate the increasing need for cost-effective rehabilitation of neurological conditions, but use in clinical practice remains limited. Agreement on a core set of reliable, valid and accessible outcome measures to assess rehabilitation outcomes is needed to generate strong evidence about effectiveness of rehabilitation approaches, including technologies. This paper collates and synthesizes a core set from multiple sources; combining existing evidence, clinical practice guidelines and expert consensus into European recommendations for Clinical Assessment of Upper Limb In Neurorehabilitation (CAULIN). Methods Data from systema…

Understanding physical activity in adolecents with cerebral palsy from a self-determination theoretical perspective : a mixed method case study

2018

Ruiz Egea, Alfredo, 2018. Understanding physical activity in adolescents with cerebral palsy from a self-determination theoretical perspective: a mixed method case study. Master´s Thesis in Sport and Exercise Psychology. Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences. University of Jyväskylä. 75 p. The amount of research in cerebral palsy has augmented considerably during last twenty years. Increasing functional capacity in population with cerebral palsy, through physical activity has been the main goal of the research in this field during the past decades. Research sustains its effort in a basic assumption, that an increase in functionality will be followed by an increase in physical activity behavi…
