Design Randomized controlled pilot trial. Setting Participant homes. Participants People with multiple sclerosis (MS) (N=37) who use a walking aid. Interventions A 12-week home PRT program or the same program augmented by NMES. Main Outcome Measures Strength using hand-held dynamometry; repeated sit to stand test; Berg Balance Scale; timed Up & Go test; 12-Item Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale; Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale-29, version 2; and Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS). The NMES group also completed a device usability questionnaire. Results Only change in MFIS score was significantly greater in the NMES group than the PRT group (P=.012). The NMES group improved significantly in quadriceps endurance (median of change, 8.5; P=.043), balance (median of change, 3.5; P=.001), physical impact of MS (median of change, −8.3; P=.001), and impact of fatigue (median of change, −17; P=.001). Participants rated the device as highly usable. Conclusions This pilot study suggests that a home PRT program with NMES is feasible, and the neuromuscular electrical stimulation device is usable by this population. Only reduction in impact of fatigue was greater in the NMES than the PRT group.

Design Observational study to assess concurrent validity, test-retest, and interrater reliability of the FAB Scale in patients with PD and to compare the distribution of the scale with the Mini-BESTest and BBS. Setting University hospital in an urban community. Participants Patients with idiopathic PD (N=85; Hoehn and Yahr stages 1–4). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures FAB Scale, Mini-BESTest, BBS, timed Up and Go test, Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, and visual analog scale. Results Interrater (3 raters) and test-retest (3+1d) reliability were high for all scales (ICCs≥.95). The FAB Scale was highly correlated with the Mini-BESTest (Spearman ρ=.87) and timed Up and Go test item of the Mini-BESTest (Spearman ρ=.83). In contrast with the BBS, the FAB Scale and Mini-BESTest have only minimal ceiling effects. The FAB Scale demonstrated the most symmetric distribution when compared with the Mini-BESTest and BBS (skewness: FAB scale: −.54; Mini-BESTest: −1.07; BBS: −2.14). Conclusions The FAB Scale is a valid and reliable tool to assess postural control in patients with PD. No ceiling effect was noted for the FAB Scale. Although the items of the FAB Scale are more detailed when compared with the Mini-BESTest, interrater and test-retest reliability were excellent. The scale is a promising tool to detect small changes of the postural control system in individuals with PD.

Main Outcome Measures Distance walked, perceived fatigue, and the physiological cost of walking were compared between walking conditions. Pre- and postwalk changes in knee extensor and ankle dorsiflexor isometric strength and standing postural sway with eyes open and closed were compared between walking conditions. Results There were no differences in distance walked or perceived fatigue between the 2 walking conditions. However, there was a reduced physiological cost of walking (P<.05 a smaller reduction in knee extensor strength and increase standing postural sway with eyes open after walking while wearing the dao compared without dao.> Conclusions Despite not increasing walking distance or reducing perceived fatigue, the DAO reduced the physiological cost of walking and maintained knee strength and standing balance, which may have important implications for physical rehabilitation in people with MS.

Design Cross-sectional psychometric study. Construct validity of the Nottwil Environmental Factors Inventory Short Form, including model fit, person and item fit, local item dependence, dimensionality, and differential item functioning (DIF), was investigated with Rasch analysis. Internal consistency was assessed with Cronbach alpha and item-total correlations. Setting Community. Participants Swiss residents aged >16 years and living with traumatic or nontraumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) (N=1549). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measure The Nottwil Environmental Factors Inventory Short Form, a 14-item questionnaire developed to assess perceived impact of environmental barriers on participation. Results Local dependencies between items addressing a similar content could be solved by creating a testlet. With 1 testlet there was strong evidence for unidimensionality of the Nottwil Environmental Factors Inventory Short Form. Although person-item targeting revealed a floor effect, indicating few perceived environmental barriers to participation in the Swiss SCI population, the item fit was good. Only a few items presented DIF. The Nottwil Environmental Factors Inventory Short Form showed good internal consistency (α=.82). Conclusions This psychometric analysis supports the use of the Nottwil Environmental Factors Inventory Short Form to evaluate perceived environmental barriers to participation in persons with SCI living in the community.

Incidence and Associations of Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain Poststroke: Prospective Population-Based Study / Zoe Adey-Wakeling in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2015/2 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2015/2 (2015) . - p. 241-247 Titre : Incidence and Associations of Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain Poststroke: Prospective Population-Based Study Type de document : Article Auteurs : Zoe Adey-Wakeling ; Hisatomi Arima ; Maria Crotty Article en page(s) : p. 241-247 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC) ; Douleur ; Epaule ; Épidémiologie ; Hémiplégie ; Pain ; Rééducation et réadaptation Mots-clés : Epidemiology  Hemiplegia  Shoulder  Stroke Résumé : Objective To provide an epidemiological perspective of the clinical profile, frequency, and determinants of poststroke hemiplegic shoulder pain. Design A prospective population-based study of an inception cohort of participants with a 12-month follow-up period. Setting General community and hospital within a geographically defined metropolitan region. Participants Multiple ascertainment techniques were used to identify 318 confirmed stroke events in 301 individuals. Among adults with stroke, data on shoulder pain were available for 198 (83% of the survivors) at baseline and for 156 and 148 at 4 and 12 months, respectively. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Subjective reports of onset, severity, and aggravating factors for pain and 3 passive range-of-motion measures were collected at baseline and at 4- and 12-month follow-up. Results A total of 10% of the participants reported shoulder pain at baseline, whereas 21% reported pain at each follow-up assessment. Overall, 29% of all assessed participants reported shoulder pain during 12-month follow-up, with the median pain score (visual analog scale score=40) highest at 4 months and more often associated with movement at later time points. Objective passive range-of-motion tests elicited higher frequencies of pain than did self-report and predicted later subjective shoulder pain (crude relative risk of 3.22 [95% confidence interval, 1.01–10.27]). Conclusions The frequency of poststroke shoulder pain is almost 30%. Peak onset and severity of hemiplegic shoulder pain in this study was at 4 months, outside of rehabilitation admission time frames. Systematic use of objective assessment tools may aid in early identification and management of stroke survivors at risk of this common complication of stroke.

Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Ambulatory care. Participants The medical histories of patients (N=145) aged ≥50 years with intermittent claudication were examined. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Sociodemographic data (sex, race, level of education, socioeconomic status, marital status), comorbidities (overweight, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, currently smoking, heart disease), and clinical variables (initial claudication distance, total walking distance, ankle-brachial index). Information on personal and environmental barriers was obtained by questionnaire. Results Low economic status was most associated with “being afraid of falling” (odd ratios [OR]=2.22; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08–4.54). Low education level was most associated with “lack of street pedestrian crossing” (OR=3.34; 95% CI, 1.48–7.52). Diabetes was associated with lack of energy (OR=3.38; 95% CI, 1.68–6.79) and other medical conditions (eg, arthritis, angina) (OR=3.44; 95% CI, 1.65–7.16). Ankle brachial index was associated with “some difficulty in getting to a place where physical activity can be performed” (OR = 2.75; 95% CI, 1.22–6.21). Walking capacity was strongly associated with barriers relating to leg pain (OR=7.39; 95% CI, 1.66–32.88). Conclusions Older patients, those with a low education level, patients with diabetes, low ankle brachial index, and those with a lower walking capacity are more likely to experience barriers to physical activity.

Design Cross-sectional survey study. Setting Community-living subjects. Participants Swedish people with CMT disease (N=44; men, 54.5%; median age, 59.5y [interquartile range, 45.3–64.8y]). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures The survey included open-ended questions and standardized self-reported scales measuring physical activity, fatigue, activity limitation, self-efficacy for physical activity, fall-related self-efficacy, social support, and enjoyment of physical activity. Physical activity was measured by the Physical Activity Disability Survey–Revised. Results Qualitative content analysis revealed that personal factors such as fatigue, poor balance, muscle weakness, and pain were important barriers for physical activity behavior. Facilitators of physical activity were self-efficacy for physical activity, activity-related factors, and assistive devices. Multiple regression analysis showed that self-efficacy for physical activity (β=.41) and fatigue (β=−.30) explained 31.8% of the variation in physical activity (F2,40=10.78, P=.000). Conclusions Despite the well-known benefits of physical activity, physical activity in people with CMT disease is very sparsely studied. These new results contribute to the understanding of factors important for physical activity behavior in people with CMT disease and can guide health professionals to facilitate physical activity behavior in this group of patients.

A secondary question considered whether the frequency of features of neuropathic pain, kinesiophobia, high pain ratings, hyperalgesia, and allodynia differed according to subgroups of sensory phenotypes. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Higher education institution. Participants Forty office workers with NSAP, 17 people with cervical radiculopathy, and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (N=97). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Participants were assessed using quantitative sensory testing (QST) comprising thermal and vibration detection thresholds and thermal and pressure pain thresholds; clinical examination; and relevant questionnaires. Sensory phenotypes were identified for each individual in the patient groups using z-score transformation of the QST data. Results Individuals with NSAP and cervical radiculopathy present with a spectrum of sensory abnormalities; a dominant sensory phenotype was not identifiable in individuals with NSAP. No distinct pattern between clinical features and questionnaire results across sensory phenotypes was identified in either group. Conclusions When considering sensory phenotypes, neither individuals with NSAP nor individuals with cervical radiculopathy should be considered homogeneous. Therefore, people with either condition may warrant different intervention approaches according to their individual sensory phenotype. Issues relating to the clinical identification of sensory hypersensitivity and the validity of QST are highlighted.

Design Retrospective, cross-sectional, descriptive study. Setting Trauma centers. Participants Patients with moderate TBI (N=2087; age range, 18–64y) as reported in the 2010 National Sample Project. Interventions None. Main Outcome Measure Discharge destination (rehabilitation vs home with no services). Results Multivariate logistic regression models revealed that demographic, clinical, and financial characteristics influenced the likelihood of being discharged to rehabilitation. Increased age, increased severity, Medicare use, longer length of stay, and trauma center locations in the Midwest and Northeast all increased the likelihood of discharge to rehabilitation. Conclusions The decision to discharge a person with moderate TBI from acute care to rehabilitation appears to be based on factors other than just clinical need. These findings should be considered in creating more equitable access to postacute rehabilitation services for patients with moderate TBI because they risk long-term physical and cognitive problems and have the potential for productive lives with treatment.

Participants Subjects with CVI (N=41) were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n=20; mean age, 54.6+11.3y) or control group (n=21; mean age, 46.8+11.1y). Interventions The experimental group completed 10 lower extremity MLD sessions over 4 weeks and 1 educational session. The control group only attended the educational session. Outcome measures were taken at baseline (t0), at the end of 4 weeks (t1), and after 2 months for follow-up (t2). Main Outcome Measures HRQOL was assessed with the Chronic Venous Insufficiency Quality of Life Questionnaire-20, symptoms (fatigue, heaviness) were assessed with a visual analog scale, severity of the disease was assessed with the Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) (total score, score for each item), leg volumetry was assessed with perimeters, and plantar/dorsiflexion strength and ankle range of motion (ROM) were assessed with dynamometry. Results A significant interaction group * time effect was found for pain on HRQOL (F2,78=3.507; P=.035; partial η2=.087), clinical severity (F2,78=5.231; P=.007; partial η2=.118), especially for venous edema (assessed with the VCSS), fatigue (F1.67,65.21=4.690; P=.012; partial η2=.107), and heaviness (F1.57,61.32=9.702; P=.001; partial η2=.199), with the experimental group improving from t0 to t1 and t0 to t2 in all of these outcomes. No effect of MLD treatment could be found for ankle muscle strength, ankle ROM, and leg volume. Conclusions Short-term MLD treatment ameliorates CVI severity and related edema, symptoms, and pain HRQOL in patients with CVI.

Hip Stiffness Patterns in Lumbar Flexion- or Extension-Based Movement Syndromes / Jason Zafereo in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2015/2 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2015/2 (2015) . - p. 292-297 Titre : Hip Stiffness Patterns in Lumbar Flexion- or Extension-Based Movement Syndromes Type de document : Article Auteurs : Jason Zafereo ; Raymond Devanna ; Edward Mulligan Article en page(s) : p. 292-297 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Classification ; Lombalgie ; Rééducation et réadaptation Mots-clés : Hip joint  Articulation de la hanche  Low back pain  Range of Motion  Articular  Amplitude articulaire Résumé : Objective To determine whether a relationship exists between sagittal plane hip range of motion loss and sagittal plane lumbar Movement System Impairment (MSI) categories in patients with low back pain (LBP). Design Correlational study. Setting University outpatient physical therapy clinic. Participants Subjects (N=40) with LBP. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Classification into a flexion- or extension-based lumbar MSI category, and bilateral passive hip flexion and extension range of motion testing. Using predefined criteria, subjects in each MSI category were subclassified into 1 of 3 hip stiffness categories: (1) a considerable loss of either flexion or extension (pattern A); (2) a considerable loss of both flexion and extension (pattern B); or (3) minimally limited flexion or extension (pattern C). Results Pattern A occurred in 23 (57.5%) subjects, with the primary direction of hip motion loss agreeing with the MSI category 78.3% of the time (φ=.56; P=.007). Pattern B occurred in 10 (25%) subjects, with the primary direction of hip motion loss agreeing with the MSI category 70% of the time (φ=.47; P=.197). Pattern C occurred in 7 (17.5%) subjects, with the primary direction of hip motion limitation agreeing with the MSI category 42.9% of the time (φ=−.40; P=.290). Conclusions Considerable unidirectional hip motion loss in the sagittal plane was a common finding among subjects with LBP and yielded a strong positive relationship with the same direction MSI category. These results may inform future studies investigating whether treatment of hip stiffness patterns could improve outcomes in LBP management.

Visual Scapular Dyskinesis: Kinematics and Muscle Activity Alterations in Patients With Subacromial Impingement Syndrome / Andrea Diniz Lopes in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2015/2 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2015/2 (2015) . - p. 298-306 Titre : Visual Scapular Dyskinesis: Kinematics and Muscle Activity Alterations in Patients With Subacromial Impingement Syndrome Type de document : Article Auteurs : Andrea Diniz Lopes ; Mark K.

Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Laboratory. Participants Participants with subacromial impingement syndrome (N=38) were visually classified using a scapular dyskinesis test with obvious scapular dyskinesis (n=19) or normal scapular motion (n=19). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures An electromagnetic motion capture system measured 3-dimensional kinematics of the thorax, humerus, and scapula. Simultaneously, surface electromyography was used to measure muscle activity of the upper, middle, and lower trapezius; serratus anterior; and infraspinatus during ascending and descending phases of weighted shoulder flexion. Separate mixed-model analyses of variance for the ascending and descending phases of shoulder flexion compared kinematics and muscle activity between the 2 groups. Shoulder disability was assessed with the Pennsylvania Shoulder Score (Penn). Results The group with obvious dyskinesis reported 6 points lower on Penn shoulder function (0–60 points), exhibited a main group effect of less scapular external rotation of 2.1° during ascent and 2.5° during descent, and had 12.0% higher upper trapezius muscle activity during ascent in the 30° to 60° interval. Conclusions Patients with obvious dyskinesis and subacromial impingement syndrome have reduced scapular external rotation and increased upper trapezius muscle activity, along with a greater loss of shoulder function compared with those without dyskinesis. These biomechanical alterations can lead to or be caused by scapular dyskinesis. Future studies should determine if correction of these deficits will eliminate scapular dyskinesis and improve patient-rated shoulder use.

Davies Article en page(s) : p. 307-316 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Enfant ; Environnement ; Nourrisson ; Participation sociale ; Rééducation et réadaptation Mots-clés : Child  Environment  Infant  Social participation Résumé : Objective To evaluate the psychometric properties of the newly developed Young Children's Participation and Environment Measure (YC-PEM). Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Data were collected online and by telephone. Participants Convenience and snowball sampling methods were used to survey caregivers of children (N=395, comprising children with [n=93] and without [n=302] developmental disabilities and delays) between the ages of 0 and 5 years (mean age + SD, 35.33+20.29mo) and residing in North America. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures The YC-PEM includes 3 participation scales and 1 environment scale. Each scale is assessed across 3 settings: home, daycare/preschool, and community. Data were analyzed to derive estimates of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity. Results Internal consistency ranged from .68 to .96 and .92 to .96 for the participation and environment scales, respectively. Test-retest reliability (2–4wk) ranged from .31 to .93 for participation scales and from .91 to .94 for the environment scale. One of 3 participation scales and the environment scale demonstrated significant group differences by disability status across all 3 settings, and all 4 scales discriminated between disability groups for the daycare/preschool setting. The participation scales exhibited small to moderate positive associations with functional performance scores. Conclusions Results lend initial support for the use of the YC-PEM in research to assess the participation of young children with disabilities and delays in terms of (1) home, daycare/preschool, and community participation patterns; (2) perceived environmental supports and barriers to participation; and (3) activity-specific parent strategies to promote participation.

Design Cross-sectional semiquantitative survey. Setting Five specialized neurologic rehabilitation facilities. Participants Consecutive sample of primary family members (N=44) of patients with DOC as determined by the Coma Recovery Scale-Revised, surveyed 6 months after the patient's brain injury. Intervention Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Perception of level of consciousness as compared with the medical diagnosis; assessment of communicative status and prognosis; and practice of treatment decision-making. Results The study included 44 family members of patients, most of whom had sustained global cerebral ischemia. Six months after brain injury, 36% were in a vegetative state (VS), 20% were in a minimally conscious state (MCS), and 39% had emerged from an MCS. In 76% of cases, the relatives assumed the same level of consciousness that diagnostic tests showed. In the other cases, consciousness was mostly underestimated. While relatives of patients in a VS, and to a lesser extent of those in an MCS, were more skeptical about the patients' chances to advance to an independent life, all had high hopes that the patients would regain the ability to communicate. Yet, 59% of family members had thought about limiting life-sustaining treatment. Most of them base treatment decisions on the patient's well-being; very few relied on previously expressed patient wishes. Conclusions According to our sample, family members of patients with DOC largely assess the level of consciousness correctly and express high hopes to reestablish communication with the patient.

Postural Control in Response to Altered Sensory Conditions in Persons With Dysvascular and Traumatic Transtibial Amputation / Prasath Jayakaran in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2015/2 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2015/2 (2015) . - p. 331-339 Titre : Postural Control in Response to Altered Sensory Conditions in Persons With Dysvascular and Traumatic Transtibial Amputation Type de document : Article Auteurs : Prasath Jayakaran ; Gillian M. Johnson ; John S. Sullivan Article en page(s) : p. 331-339 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Amputation ; Complications du diabète ; Membre inférieur ; Proprioception ; Rééducation et réadaptation Mots-clés : Amputation chirurgicale  Diabetes complications  Lower extremity  Peripheral Vascular Diseases  Maladies vasculaires périphériques  Postural balance  Équilibre postural Résumé : Objective To compare the postural control of persons with a dysvascular transtibial amputation and traumatic transtibial amputation with able-bodied adults with and without a dysvascular condition in altered sensory testing conditions. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting University balance clinic. Participants The study participants (N=35) included: participants with a dysvascular transtibial amputation (n=9), participants with a traumatic transtibial amputation (n=9), age-matched able-bodied adults without a dysvascular condition (n=9), and able-bodied adults with a dysvascular condition (n=8). Interventions Six Sensory Organization Test (SOT) conditions, which included standing with eyes open (condition 1) and closed (condition 2) on a static force platform with visual surround; standing with eyes open on a static force platform with movable visual surround (condition 3); standing with eyes open (condition 4) and closed (condition 5) on a movable force platform with static visual surround; and standing with eyes open on a movable force platform with movable visual surround (condition 6). Main Outcome Measures Bilateral anteroposterior (AP) and mediolateral (ML) center of pressure variables, namely root mean square distance (RMSD) and mean velocity (mVel), for each of the 6 SOT conditions. Results The dysvascular transtibial amputation group demonstrated a higher AP RMSD (P≤.04) on the sound side than did the able-bodied adults without a dysvascular condition and the able-bodied adults with a dysvascular condition in SOT conditions 1 and 2, respectively. Both the dysvascular transtibial amputation group and the traumatic transtibial amputation group demonstrated a higher AP RMSD (P≤.002) than the able-bodied adults without a dysvascular condition in SOT conditions 3 and 4. The dysvascular transtibial amputation group showed higher AP mVel (P≤.002) on the sound side for SOT conditions 2 and 3, whereas both amputation groups showed higher AP mVel for SOT conditions 1 and 4 than the able-bodied adults with and without a dysvascular condition. Conclusions Postural control of the dysvascular transtibial amputation group was not different than the traumatic transtibial amputation group in challenging sensory conditions. However, when compared with the groups of able-bodied adults with and without a dysvascular condition, postural strategies distinct with amputation etiology were observed.

Design Cross-sectional study. Setting University balance clinic. Participants The study participants (N=35) included: participants with a dysvascular transtibial amputation (n=9), participants with a traumatic transtibial amputation (n=9), age-matched able-bodied adults without a dysvascular condition (n=9), and able-bodied adults with a dysvascular condition (n=8). Interventions Six Sensory Organization Test (SOT) conditions, which included standing with eyes open (condition 1) and closed (condition 2) on a static force platform with visual surround; standing with eyes open on a static force platform with movable visual surround (condition 3); standing with eyes open (condition 4) and closed (condition 5) on a movable force platform with static visual surround; and standing with eyes open on a movable force platform with movable visual surround (condition 6). Main Outcome Measures Bilateral anteroposterior (AP) and mediolateral (ML) center of pressure variables, namely root mean square distance (RMSD) and mean velocity (mVel), for each of the 6 SOT conditions. Results The dysvascular transtibial amputation group demonstrated a higher AP RMSD (P≤.04) on the sound side than did the able-bodied adults without a dysvascular condition and the able-bodied adults with a dysvascular condition in SOT conditions 1 and 2, respectively. Both the dysvascular transtibial amputation group and the traumatic transtibial amputation group demonstrated a higher AP RMSD (P≤.002) than the able-bodied adults without a dysvascular condition in SOT conditions 3 and 4. The dysvascular transtibial amputation group showed higher AP mVel (P≤.002) on the sound side for SOT conditions 2 and 3, whereas both amputation groups showed higher AP mVel for SOT conditions 1 and 4 than the able-bodied adults with and without a dysvascular condition. Conclusions Postural control of the dysvascular transtibial amputation group was not different than the traumatic transtibial amputation group in challenging sensory conditions. However, when compared with the groups of able-bodied adults with and without a dysvascular condition, postural strategies distinct with amputation etiology were observed.

Differences in Quality of Life Outcomes Among Depressed Spinal Cord Injury Trial Participants / Denise G. Tate in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2015/2 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2015/2 (2015) . - p. 340-348 Titre : Differences in Quality of Life Outcomes Among Depressed Spinal Cord Injury Trial Participants Type de document : Article Auteurs : Denise G.

Bombardier Article en page(s) : p. 340-348 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Dépression ; Qualité de vie ; Rééducation et réadaptation ; Traumatismes de la moelle épinière Mots-clés : Quality of life  Randomized controlled trial  Essai contrôlé randomisé  Spinal cord injuries Résumé : Objective To assess the role that treatment response plays in a randomized controlled trial of an antidepressant among people with spinal cord injury (SCI) diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) in explaining quality of life (QOL), assessed both globally as life satisfaction and in terms of physical and mental health-related QOL. Design Multivariable analyses were conducted, controlling for demographic, neurologic, and participatory factors and perceived functional limitations. Setting Rehabilitation centers. Participants Of the 133 persons who were randomized into the Project to Improve Symptoms and Mood after Spinal Cord Injury randomized controlled trial, 124 participated in this study. All participants were between the ages of 18 and 64 years, at least 1 month post-SCI, met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition, criteria for MDD, and completed the core measures used in this study. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures The Satisfaction with Life Scale and the physical and mental component summary scores of the Medical Outcomes Study 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey. Results Reduction in depressive symptoms over the course of a 12-week trial was predictive of increased QOL, which was measured as life satisfaction and mental well-being, within the context of other explanatory factors. However, reduction in symptoms did not explain differences in physical well-being among those with MDD. Perceived functional disability explained all 3 indices of QOL. Conclusions Greater recognition has been given to QOL outcomes as endpoints of clinical trials because these often reflect participants' reported outcomes. Our findings support the association of QOL to the reduction of depression symptoms among trial participants. This association differs depending on how QOL is defined and measured, with stronger relations observed with life satisfaction and mental well-being among those diagnosed with MDD. The lack of association between depression and physical well-being may be explained by participants' subjective interpretation of physical well-being after SCI and their expectations and perceptions of improved physical health-related QOL based on the use of assistive technology. Consistent with our findings, pain is likely to play a role in decreasing physical QOL among those with incomplete injuries. Practicing caution is suggested in using physical well-being as an endpoint in trials among people with SCI.

Design Randomized controlled trial with single blinding. Setting Athletic club. Participants Asymptomatic volleyball players who are women with glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (N=60). Interventions Subjects were randomly assigned to either horizontal adduction stretching with manual scapular stabilization (n=30) or horizontal adduction stretching without stabilization (n=30). Passive stretching was performed for 3- to 30-second holds in both groups. Main Outcome Measures Range of motion measurements of PST and IR were performed on the athlete's dominant shoulder prior to and immediately after the intervention. Results Baseline mean angular measurements of PST and IR for all athletes involved in the study were 62°+14° and 40°+10°, respectively, with no significant difference between groups (P=.598 and P=.734, respectively). Mean PST measurements were significantly different between groups after the horizontal adduction stretch, with a mean angle of 83°+17° among the scapular stabilization group and 65°+13° among the nonstabilization group (P<.001 measurements of ir were also significantly different between groups with a mean angle among the scapular stabilization group and nonstabilization> Conclusions Horizontal adduction stretches performed with scapular stabilization produced significantly greater improvements in IR and PST than horizontal adduction stretching without scapular stabilization.

Data Sources We performed a systematic review of the PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and PsycINFO databases from 1950 to August 13, 2013. Study Selection PRO measures were defined as outcomes that capture the subjective experience of the patient (eg, symptoms, functional status, health perceptions, quality of life). Two independent reviewers selected studies that used PRO measures in clinical vestibular research. Disparities were resolved with consensus between the reviewers. Of 2260 articles initially found in the literature search, 255 full-text articles were retrieved for assessment. Of these, 104 met inclusion criteria for data collection. Data Extraction PRO measures were identified by 2 independent reviewers. The 4 most commonly used PROs were evaluated for their applicability to the condition of age-related vestibular loss. Specifically, for these 4 PROs, data were collected pertaining to instrument test-retest reliability, item domains, and target population of the instrument. Data Synthesis A total of 50 PRO instruments were identified. The 4 most frequently used PROs were the Dizziness Handicap Inventory, Activities-specific Balance Confidence scale, Vertigo Symptom Scale-short form, and visual analog scale. Of these 4 PROs, 3 were validated for use in patients with vestibular disease and 1 was validated in community-dwelling older individuals with balance impairments. Items across the 4 PROs were categorized into 3 domains based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health: activity, participation, and body functions and structures. Conclusions None of the most commonly used PRO instruments were validated for use in community-dwelling older adults with age-related vestibular loss. Nevertheless, the 3 common domains of items identified across these 4 PRO instruments may be generalizable to older adults and provide a basis for developing a PRO instrument designed to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions targeted toward age-related vestibular loss.

Data Sources MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and SPORTDiscus were searched for human studies written in the English language between January 1980 and April 2013. Reference lists of relevant articles were reviewed for citations to expand the data set. Study Selection Prospective experimental studies assessing nonpharmacologic interventions for management of orthostatic drop in blood pressure in various patient populations were included. All studies identified through the literature search were reviewed independently in duplicate. Of the 642 studies, 23 met the selection criteria. Data Extraction Two reviewers independently extracted data for analysis, including systolic and diastolic blood pressure and orthostatic symptoms in response to postural challenge before and after the intervention. All 23 studies were assessed in duplicate for risk of bias using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale for randomized controlled trials and the Downs and Black tool for nonrandomized trials. Data Synthesis There were 8 identified nonpharmacologic interventions for management of orthostatic hypotension under 2 general categories: physical modalities (exercise, functional electrical stimulation, compression, physical countermaneuvers, compression with physical countermaneuvers, sleeping with head up) and dietary measures (water intake, meals). Owing to the clinically diverse nature of the studies, statistical comparison (meta-analysis) was deemed inappropriate. Instead, descriptive comparisons were drawn. Levels of evidence were assigned. Conclusions Strong levels of evidence were found for 4 of the 8 interventions: functional electrical stimulation in spinal cord injury, compression of the legs and/or abdomen, physical countermaneuvers in various patient populations, and eating smaller and more frequent meals in chronic autonomic failure. However, this conclusion is based on a limited number of studies with small sample sizes. Further research into all interventions is warranted.
