Pełny tekst źródłaOccupation-based hand therapy (OBHT) is an approach to practice that integrates multiple frames of reference while remaining rooted in an occupational therapy perspective. Hand function is important for participation in daily occupations. The current focus in assessment and treatment of clients in occupational therapy remains on body structure and function which is also true in South Africa. The gap in the literature about the effects of OBHT indicates that there is a need for a study in a South African context. This research was conducted to examine the influences of an OBHT among clients with hand injuries within occupational therapy practice in a South African context.

Pełny tekst źródła90% of all stroke survivors suffer from a hand paresis which remains chronic in 30-40% of all cases. Currently, there is an increasing research interest in neurology and technology on the effectiveness of robot-assisted therapies. Robotic training is considered as especially promising for patients suffering from severe limitations. Commonly, rehabilitation robots consist of a mechanical part and a virtual training environment with a graphical user interface, audio-visual feedback, sound, and music. So far, the effects of sound and music that are embedded within these scenarios have never been evaluated in particular while taking into account that it might influence motivation, motor execution, motor learning and the whole recovery process. This thesis investigates the role of sound in robot-assisted hand function training post-stroke. The main goals of this work are 1) to explore potentials of sound/ music for robotic hand function training post-stroke, 2) to develop specified sound-/ music-applications for this context, 3) to examine whether stroke patients benefit from these specified sound/ music-application, 4) to gain a better understanding of sound-/ music-induced mechanisms with therapeutic potentials for robotic therapy, and 5) to inform further arising treatment approaches about effective applications of sound or music in robotic post-stroke motor training.

Pełny tekst źródłaHand-arm vibrationssyndrom (HAVS) är ett tillstånd som inte är så välkänt trots att det är ett relativt vanligt tillstånd bland flera yrkesgrupper. Ökad kunskap inom området kan vara ett redskap för arbetsterapeuter i mötet med patienter med HAVS. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva den vetenskapliga dokumentationen om hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS). Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie gjordes med sökningar i databaserna AMED, Cinahl och Medline. Nio artiklar valdes till resultatet. Resultat: Beskrivning av vilka bedömningsinstrument som används för bedömning av HAVS, samt vilka konsekvenser HAVS har på aktivitetsförmågan. I en av studierna genomfördes en behandlingsmetod. Flera av artiklarna beskriver svårigheter med ADL. Diskussion: Eftersom HAVS är svårt att diagnostisera och kan yttra sig på så många olika sätt, samt att det inte alltid ger tydliga symtom krävs många olika typer av instrument för att bedöma HAVS. Då gripförmågan ofta blir påverkad yttrar sig detta genom svårigheter att utföra ADL-aktiviteter. Det finns inte några effektiva behandlingsmetoder för personer med HAVS. Slutsats: En arbetsterapeut är viktig för denna grupp, eftersom arbetsterapeuten kan hjälpa till med förebyggande arbete bland annat genom ergonomiska råd. Även efter att skadan uppkommit kan en arbetsterapeut hitta strategier för att underlätta dagliga aktiviteter för personer med HAVS.

Nilsson, Jenny, i Eva Ögren. "En beskrivning av handstereotypier vid Rett syndrom". Thesis, Örebro University, School of Health and Medical Sciences, 2007. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:oru:diva-2140.
Pełny tekst źródłaBakgrund: Rett syndrom är ett syndrom som drabbar i stort sett bara flickor. Flickorna utvecklas till synes normalt fram till ca 6-8 månaders ålder. Sedan sker en tillbakagång som gör att de förlorar förmågor och färdigheter de tidigare lärt sig. De utvecklar de typiska handstereotypierna och får så småningom ett svårt flerhandikapp som gör dem mycket beroende av sin omgivning. Dessa handstereotypier ses som ett utmärkande drag för personer med Rett syndrom och dessutom är handstereotypierna ett av diagnoskriterierna för syndromet.
Syfte och frågeställning: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur handstereotypierna kan te sig vid Rett syndrom. Frågor att besvara med studien var att se hur handstereotypierna vanligen yttrar sig och om det är någon viss situation eller känsla som gör att handstereotpierna framträder. En annan intressant fråga var att se om det genom arbetsterapijournalerna gick att utläsa hur flickorna/kvinnorna reagerar när handstereotypierna medvetet bryts av någon annan än de själva.
Metod: Studien är kvantitativ, där datainsamlingen var att studera 59 arbetsterapijournaler vid Rett Center, Frösön, Jämtland.
Resultat: Det mest intressanta resultatet visade att av de 59 journaler som studerats var det 16% av personerna som inte hade de karaktäristiska handstereotypierna.
Diskussion: Vi kan genom denna studie se att tillförlitligare svar på frågorna skulle gå att få med mer strukturerade rutiner vid journaldokumentation.

Pełny tekst źródłaBakgrund: Hand-fot syndrom är en form av perifer sensorisk neuropati orsakad av cytostatikabehandling. Syndromet kan ge biverkningar såsom smärta, obehag, domningar, svullnad och nedsatt balans. Utvärderade behandlingsmetoder saknas.
Syfte: Undersöka hur tolv veckors sjukgymnastisk behandling med långvågsdiametri, interferens och balansträning påverkar biverkningar i fot/underben orsakad av cytostatikabehandling hos sju patienter med hand-fot syndrom.
Metod: Gruppstudie, kvasiexperimentell resultatstudie. Sju patienter deltog. Variabler som mättes var, smärta, obehag, domningar och balans. Tre mätningar utfördes, före, efter samt åtta veckor efter interventionen. Självrapporterad skattning och fysisk mätning användes.
Resultat: Gruppens smärta, obehag och domningar minskade vid samtliga mätningar. För smärta visade mätning efter intervention samt åtta veckor efter signifikans (p=0,027), (p=0,042). Obehag visade signifikans efter interventionen (p=0,018). Domningar visade ingen signifikans. Balans visade signifikans i: Skärpt Romberg, höger, blundande, åtta veckor efter interventionen (p=0,043). Skärpt Romberg, vänster, blundande, efter interventionen (p=0,027), åtta veckor efter interventionen (p=0,028). Stående på ett ben, höger, blundande, efter interventionen (p=0,042), åtta veckor efter interventionen (p=0,027). Inga mätningar visade försämringar.
Slutsats: Restultaten visade att behandling med långvårdsdiametri, interferens och balansträning minskade smärta, obehag, domningar och delvis förbättrade balans vid hand-fot syndrom. Dock går det inte att påvisa vilken behandlingskomponent som påverkat mest. Ytterligare studier behövs för att ge resultat större giltighet.
Background: Hand-foot syndrome is a form of perifier sensory neuropathy caused by chemotherapy. The syndrome can cause side effects such as pain, discomfort, numbness, swelling and impaired balance. Evaluated treatment is lacking.
Purpose: Examine how twelve week physiotherapy treatment short-wave diathermy, interference and balance training affects side effects of the foot/lower leg caused by chemotherapy in seven patients with hand-foot syndrome.
Method: Study group, quasi-experimental outcome study. Seven patients participated. Variables measured were, pain, discomfort, numbness, and balance. Three measurements were carried out, before, after, and eight weeks after the intervention. Self-reported estimates and the physical measurement were used.
Results: The group's pain, discomfort and numbness decreased in all measurements. For pain measurement after the intervention and eight weeks after showed significance (p = 0,027),(p = 0,042). Discomfort showed significance after the intervention (p = 0,018). Numbness showed no significance. Balance showed significance in: Sharpened Romberg, left, eyes closed, eight weeks after intervention (p = 0,043). Sharpened Romberg, left, eyes closed, after the intervention (p = 0,027), eight weeks after intervention (p = 0,028). Standing on one leg, the right, eyes closed, after the intervention (p = 0,042), eight weeks after intervention(p = 0,027). No measurements showed deterioration.
Conclusion: The results showed that treatment with short-wave diathermy, interference and balance training reduced pain, discomfort, numbness and partial improvements in balance in hand-foot syndrome. However, it is not possible to demonstrate which treatment component that affected the most. Further studies are needed to produce results more valid.

Pełny tekst źródłaThis exploratory repeated-measure study investigated the presence of stress reactions and coping mechanisms following traumatic upper limb injuries in 70 Arabic-speaking adults in Kuwait and the influence on hand impairment status. Data were collected twice, at the time of admittance to the hospital, and at the time of therapy conclusion. The presence of overall stress reaction, avoidance stress reaction, intrusive stress reaction, and the use of coping mechanisms have been confirmed at both admittance to the hospital and at the conclusion of therapy. The expression of overall stress reaction at the conclusion of therapy was slightly less than what the participants experienced at admittance to the hospital, though the difference was not significant. Use of coping mechanisms, on average, increased between the time of admittance to the hospital to the time of therapy conclusion. A positive correlation was established between hand impairment and each of the following: overall stress reaction, the avoidance and intrusion subscales, and problem solving-based coping. Furthermore, using baseline variables, problem solving-based coping and muscle/nerve tear diagnosis were related to how participants perceived their hand impairment at the time of therapy conclusion. This indicated that sustaining a muscle/nerve tear diagnosis is related to perceiving greater hand impairment than other types of injuries when patients are discharged from therapy. The findings also indicated that the higher the perception of hand impairment the more coping mechanisms participants had to use. A closer examination of the regression and correlation analyses revealed that when stress reaction increased, participants tended to report greater hand impairment and an increased use of coping mechanisms. Suggesting that subjects may have resorted to the use of problem-solving coping to manage the stress reaction they were experiencing. Giving rise to the possibility that problem-based coping may act as a mediator in the relationship between stress reaction and hand impairment. Thus, it is important for therapists to be aware of the presence and the relationship between these factors, and need to take into consideration stress reactions and the use of coping mechanisms when devising treatment plans for their patients to optimize recovery status.

Pełny tekst źródłaENGLISH ABSTRACT: The transition to motherhood represents a critical period in a woman's life. It presents the mother with the opportunity for personal development, while simultaneously rendering her vulnerable to psychological problems. The South African low-income mother faces additional challenges in having to contend with a host of poverty-related stressors. The mother's at-risk status extends to her infant, who depends on her for the fulfilment of its needs. Current mental health policy does not consider the special needs of mother-infant dyads, despite its orientation to prevention. The current paper seeks to explore the potential of group therapy with low-income mother-infant dyads. It outlines the possible theoretical underpinnings for psychotherapeutic group work with low-income mothers and infants, by making use of attachment theory, feminist theory and community psychology. It reviews the theories' individual contributions and explores their compatibility in considering group therapy with low-income mother-infant dyads. Further, it reviews empirical studies and interventions with mother-infant dyads, with a particular emphasis on group therapy interventions. It argues that group therapy may be a viable and effective approach to psychological work with low-income mother-infant dyads.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die oorgang tot moederskap verteenwoordig 'n kritiese periode in 'n vrou se lewe. Dit bied die moeder die kans vir persoonlike ontwikkeling, terwyl dit haar gelykertyd kwesbaar maak vir sielkundige probleme. Die Suid-Afrikaanse lae-inkomste moeder moet boonop bykomstige uitdagings, in die vorm van 'n menigdom armoed-verwante stressors, die hoof bied. Die moeder se kwesbare status sluit ook haar baba in, wat op haar aangewese is vir die vervulling van sy/haar behoeftes. Huidige geestesgesondheids-beleid neem, ten spyte van 'n voorkomende oriëntasie, nie die spesiale behoeftes van moeder-kind pare in ag nie. Hierdie werksopdrag beoog om die potensiaal van groepsterapie met lae-inkomste moederkind pare te ondersoek. Dit beskryf kortliks die moontlike teoretiese begrondings van psigoterapeutiese groepswerk met lae-inkomste moeder-kind pare deur gebruik te maak van bindings-teorie, feministiese teorie sowel as gemeenskaps sielkunde. Dit hersien die teorieë se onderskeidelike bydraes en ondersoek hulle aanpasbaarheid met betrekking tot die ondersoek van groepsterapie met lae-inkomste moeder-kind pare. Hierdie werksopdrag hersien dan ook verder empiriese studies en intervensies gemik op moeder-kind pare, met 'n spesifieke fokus op groepsterapie intervensies. Daar word geargumenteer dat groepsterapie 'n geskikte en effektiewe benadering tot sielkundige werk met lae-inkomste moeder-kind pare is.

Pełny tekst źródłaWith improvements in actuation technology and sensory systems, it is becoming increasingly feasible to create powered exoskeletal garments that can assist with the movement of human limbs. This class of robotics referred to as human-machine interfaces will one day be used for the rehabilitation of paralysed, damaged or weak upper and lower extremities. The focus of this project was the development of an exoskeletal interface for the rehabilitation of the hands. A novel sensor was designed for use in such a device. The sensor uses simple optical mechanisms centred on a spring to measure force and position simultaneously. In addition, the sensor introduces an elastic element between the actuator and its corresponding hand joint. This will allow series elastic actuation (SEA) to improve control and safely of the system. The Hand Rehabilitation Device requires multiple actuators. To stay within volume and weight constraints, it is therefore imperative to reduce the size, mass and efficiency of each actuator without losing power. A method was devised that allows small efficient actuating subunits to work together and produce a combined collective output. This work summation method was successfully implemented with Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) based actuators. The actuation, sensory, control system and human-machine interface concepts proposed were evaluated together using a single-joint electromechanical harness. This experimental setup was used with volunteer subjects to assess the potentials of a full-hand device to be used for therapy, assessment and function of the hand. The Rehabilitation Glove aims to bring significant new benefits for improving hand function, an important aspect of human independence. Furthermore, the developments in this project may one day be used for other parts of the body helping bring human-machine interface technology into the fields of rehabilitation and therapy.

Introdução: A Osteoartrite (OA) de mãos é uma doença articular com alta prevalência no Brasil e no mundo. É caracterizada por desgaste dos tecidos articulares e sintomas de dor, rigidez e limitação do movimento. Tem um alto potencial limitante por prejudicar a função manual e, consequentemente, a participação do indivíduo nas atividades do dia a dia, o que resulta em impacto negativo na qualidade de vida. O tratamento é voltado para o controle dos sintomas e, entre as modalidades não farmacológicas, estão as indicações de recursos de tecnologia assistiva, como por exemplo, os dispositivos de assistência (DA). Este recurso é utilizado com frequência na prática clínica dos Terapeutas Ocupacionais a fim de proteger as articulações adoecidas durante a realização das atividades do dia a dia, no entanto, poucos estudos que avaliem o efeito deste tratamento são encontrados na literatura. A nossa hipótese foi que os indivíduos com OA de mãos que usassem esse recurso, teriam melhora na função manual e no desempenho ocupacional. Objetivo:Avaliar os efeitos do uso de DA no desempenho ocupacional e na função manual de indivíduos com OA de mãos. Método:Tratase de um ensaio clínico randomizado, prospectivo, paralelo, cego para avaliadores, no qual foram comparados os desfechos antes e após as intervenções com os participantes que receberam os DA (grupo intervenção) e os participantes que receberam folheto de orientações (grupo controle), assim como comparados os resultados entre os grupos. A intervenção foi realizada através de um grupo de autocuidado que tinha como objetivo promover o conhecimento da patologia, ensinar técnicas de proteção articular com ênfase no uso de DA e treinar o uso dos dispositivos ofertados a fim de incluí-los na rotina dos indivíduos. Foram considerados desfechos primários o desempenho ocupacional, mensurado pela Medida Canadense de Desempenho Ocupacional (COPM) e a função manual avaliada por meio do Índice de Avaliação e Quantificação das Afecções Reumáticas Crônicas das Mãos(SACRAH). Os desfechos secundários foram dor medida pela Escala Visual Analógica (EVA) e a qualidade de vida mensurada pelo WOQHOL-bref, além dos dados obtidos pelos diários de analgésicos e diários dos DA. Todos foram avaliados no momento basal, 30 e 90 dias após a avaliação inicial. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa.Resultados: Dos 39 pacientes incluídos, 19 foram alocados para o grupo intervenção e 20 para o grupo controle. Apenas 2 pacientes do grupo controle não concluíram o seguimento. Mostrou-se que a função manual, o desempenho ocupacional, a dor e a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos com OA de mãos melhoraram após a intervenção (SACRAH – p< 0,001; COPM – p< 0,001; EVA – p < 0,001; WHOQOL – bref – p< 0,026). Quando comparados os resultados entre os grupos, houve diferença estatística no COPM (desempenho – p<0,001 e satisfação– p < 0,001), na primeira reavaliação realizada. Conclusão: O uso de DA se mostrou uma estratégia não farmacológica eficaz no tratamento da OA de mãos, apontada nesse estudo pela melhora do desempenho ocupacional e da função manual dos indivíduos.
Introduction: Hand osteoarthritis is a joint disease with high occurrence in Brazil and all over the world. Articular tissue wear characterize the disease, as well as symptoms of pain, stiffness, and limitation of movement. It has a high limiting potential as it harms regular hand function, hence harming the individual’s participation in daily activities, resulting in a negative impact on quality of life. The treatment aims to control symptoms and, among the non-pharmacological methods, there are recommendations of Assistive Technology resources, such as Assistive Devices. This resource is typical on Occupational Therapists’ clinical practice, with the goal to protect the affected joints during the execution of daily activities. However, few studies evaluating the treatment effect are available in the literature. Our hypothesis is that individuals with hand osteoarthritis and using this resource would have improved hand function and occupational performance. Objective: Verify the effects of a self-care program focusing on Assistive Devices in occupational performance and hand function with individuals having hand osteoarthritis. Method: A random, prospective, parallel, blind for evaluators, clinical trial in which were compared the results before and after the interventions of volunteers who received the Assistive Devices (intervention group) and the volunteers who received the orientation booklet,as well as the results between the groups. The intervention was implementedthrough a self-care program that had the objective of promoting knowledge of the pathology, teaching about joint-protection techniques with emphasis on the Assistive Devices usage, and training the users of the offered devices with the goal of including them inthe individuals’ routine. The primary results were the occupational performance, measured by the COPM – Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, and the hand function evaluated using SACRAH. The secondary results were pain, measured by the Analogical Visual Scale (EVA), and quality of life measured by WHOQOLBREF, in addition to the data obtained in the analgesic diaries, and assistive devices diaries. Evaluations occurred in the initial moment, 30 and 90 days after initial evaluation. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Results: From the 39 patients included, 19 were assigned to the intervention group and 20 to the control group. Only 2 patients of the control group did not finish the segment. It was shown that hand function,occupational performance, pain and life quality of the individuals affected by hand osteoarthritis improved after intervention (SACRAH - p < 0,001; COPM - p < 0,001; EVA – p < 0,001; WHOQOLBREF – p < 0,026). When compared to the results between the groups, there was statistical difference on COPM (performance - p <0,001 and satisfaction p < 0,001), at the first reevaluation. Conclusion: The self-care program with emphasis in the Assistive Devices showed itself as an effective non-pharmacological strategy for hand osteoarthritis, chosen in this study by the improvement on occupational performance and individuals’ hand function.

Pełny tekst źródłaDistal radius fracture is the most common type of injury found in emergency of orthopedic department. It requires effective rehabilitation that can be made with contributions of current technologies. For this, a mobile and interactive mechatronic system was built from the expertise of specialists in healthcare and engineering. The system was tested in thirty healthy people, the professionals of these areas and the population most affected: young men and postmenopausal women. The data and the social cues presented by the participants were analyzed. They answered a questionnaire to evaluate the system. The results showed that the system meets many rehabilitation requirements, but improvements are necessary.

Pełny tekst źródłaE.Taub, S.Wolf, S.Page and other researchers lately presented fast-track exercise method that improves impacted hand’s movements after stroke. This is a “constraint-induced movement therapy”(CIMT). Key words: constraint-induced movement therapy, impacted hand, stroke, acute period. Hypothesis of this study: we think that in recovery of impacted hand function the application of CIMT in acute period after stroke is more effective method than application of common physical exercises. Purpose of this study: to evaluate the effect of the CIMT to the impacted hand movements in acute period after stroke. Goals of this study: To evaluate impacted hand function before and after application of physical exercises for the subjects who had strokes. To evaluate impacted hand function before and after application of CIMT for the subjects who had strokes. To compare the effect of CIMT and physical exercises for recovery of impacted hand function. This study took place in neurological department of Siauliai hospital in 2006-2007. 30 subjects who had stroke participated in this study: 16 men and 14 women. The subjects were assigned in two groups. Control group subjects received CIMT. Applying this therapy not impaired hand’s movements are inhibited with a special glove. Subjects had to wear this glove 6 hours a day except the sleep time. Every hour they had breaks for 10 minutes. The treatment course lasted 10 days. There was an agreement about cases when the subject could take of the... [to full text]
