Positive Pressure Therapy to Optimize LUNG Function After Heart Surgery
The most common cardiac surgeries are myocardial revascularization and valve replacement or plastic surgery. In the postoperative period of cardiac surgeries, the incidence of pulmonary complications ranges from 30% to 50% and is associated with increased length of hospital stay and morbidity and mortality. To reduce or minimize the occurrence …
Study of Functional Magnetic Resonance Signal Variations in Patients Undergoing Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With the Application of a Dedicated Neuromotor Training
Lower limb injuries represent the majority of sports-related injuries, with knee injuries being among the most common. In particular, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are considered highly devastating and career-threatening for both professional and amateur athletes. Current surgical and rehabilitation treatments often fail to provide fully satisfactory short- and long-term …
Measurement of the Diaphragm Loading During the Training With a IMT Device
It is well known that the the training with the IMT device increases the Maximal Inspiratory Pressure. Nonetheless, there are doubts about which muscles are involved during this training. The aim of this study is to determine the diaphragm loading of healthy subjects during the training with a IMT device …
Effect of Physical Therapy and/or Platelet Rich Plasma Injection in People With Knee Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Background The anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) , one of the major ligaments in the knee joint which connects the posterior aspect of the lateral femoral condyle to the anterior intercondylar area of the tibia. It plays a crucial role in maintaining knee joint stability, preventing excessive rotation of the tibia, and …
Biomechanics and Clinical Outcomes in Responders and Non-Responders
Knee osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that affects many older adults. However, not all patients see improvements as a result of physical therapy management; therefore, a better understanding of biomechanics and assessment of clinical outcomes between responders and non-responders is required. The included participants will be provided with informed …
