Background

Overweight and obesity are associated with musculoskeletal pain, particularly in the female population. However, regular resistance training may positively affect these complaints.

Objective

The present study aimed to investigate between group differences in musculoskeletal pain in previously inactive women, allocated to three different resistance-training modalities available in health- and fitness clubs.

Methods

This is secondary analysis from a single-blinded randomized controlled trial, including healthy women (aged 18–65) with a BMI (kg/m2) ≥25. The participants were allocated to 12 weeks (3 times/weekly) of either BodyPump (high-repetition low-load group session) (n = 24), heavy load resistance training with a personal trainer (n = 28), non-supervised heavy load resistance training (n = 19) or non-exercising controls (n = 21). Primary outcome was self-reported musculoskeletal pain in ten different body parts, measured with the Standardized Nordic Pain Questionnaire, at baseline and post-test. In addition, the study included sub-analyses of the participants when they were divided into high (≥28 of 36 sessions, n = 38) and low (≤27 of 36 sessions, n = 22) exercise adherence.

Results

The analysis revealed no between group differences in musculoskeletal pain in any of the ten body parts. The results did not change when the participants were divided into high versus low adherence.

Conclusions

Twelve weeks of BodyPump, heavy load resistance training with a personal trainer and non-supervised heavy load resistance training did not show any effect on self-reported musculoskeletal pain in overweight women.Clinical Trial registration number: NCT01993953.(https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01993953).  相似文献

Objective

To measure foot sensitivity and blood glucose levels among diabetic patients as measures of improvement pre and post Apiyu massage.

Method

Quasi experimental research was employed to measure foot sensitivity and blood glucose levels before and after APIYU massage for fifty-five (55) purposive sampled consented adult patients with diabetes from Rejosari and Langsat Health Centers in Pekanbaru Riau, Indonesia. The intervention was given about three times in a week for thirty (30) minutes.

Result

Revealed that there were significant differences between measures before and after massage using the Apiyu tool on: (a) mean sensitivity levels for pre-tests and post-tests on the right foot (pre-test 9.49, post-test 9.64; p-value = 0.011) and the left foot (pre-test 9.55, post-test 9.80; p-value = 0.004), and (b) blood glucose levels (pre-test 271.6, post-test 220.7; p-value = 0.001).

Conclusion

The APIYU massage was proven effective for improving foot sensitivity and reducing blood glucose among diabetic patients.  相似文献

Background

Arab cancer survivors and their caregivers often have high levels of unmet information needs. However, whether these information needs are the same for cancer survivors living in Arab speaking countries compared to Arab migrants is not clear.

Objective

To identify the information needs and information sources among Arab cancer survivors and their caregivers.

Methods

Arab cancer survivors (n = 143) in Jordan and Australia were surveyed to explore their information needs and information sources. Interviews with cancer survivors and their caregivers, and focus groups with health care providers were conducted in both countries.

Findings

While lack of information about cancer, its treatment and side effects were common to both groups, Arab Australian cancer survivors expressed greater need for information about managing their illness (P = .027), receiving explanations about tests (P = .016) and the benefits and side-effects of treatments before making choices (P = .041) than Jordanian cancer survivors. Qualitative findings revealed preferences for spoken rather than written information, and the provision of diagrams and drawings. Although information provided by doctors was a trusted source, almost half the participants indicated they used the Internet for information. Despite the use of interpreters, Australian health care providers expressed concern at whether the information they provided had been delivered and understood.

Conclusion

Arab cancer survivors and their caregivers have unmet cancer information needs resulting in them seeking information from potentially unreliable sources such as the Internet. Arab migrants may need additional assistance to ensure they receive information relevant to their disease and are linked with the most trusted source of information.  相似文献

Background

Flap surgery for deep pelvic pressure ulcers (PPUs) has been found effective, but the recurrence rate remains high and few risk factors have been identified.

Objective

We evaluated risk factors for PU recurrence after primary flap surgery in people with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Patients and methods

This observational retrospective study based on medical charts included all individuals with SCI who underwent primary flap surgery for a PPU in the Hérault department in France between 2006 and 2014. Overall, 100 biomedical, psychological, socioeconomic and care management factors were studied. The primary outcome was PPU recurrence (surgical site and/or other pelvic site). The secondary outcome was recurrence at the surgical site. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to determine associated factors, estimating hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results

We included 85 patients. Half had a PPU recurrence, and in one-third, the recurrence was at the surgical site. On multivariate analysis, global PPU recurrence was associated with colostomy (HR = 2.79) and living with a partner (HR = 2.29). Non-traumatic SCI and sacral wound were associated with PPU recurrence (HR = 3.39, HR = 0.48) and recurrence at the surgical site (HR = 3.3, HR = 0.3).

Conclusion

Risk factors of PPU recurrence are based on both biomedical and social models. After primary flap surgery, the risk of recurrence justifies regular follow-up and strict monitoring.  相似文献

Background

Excessive gestational weight gain is associated with several adverse events and pathologies during pregnancy.

Objective

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an exercise program throughout pregnancy on maternal weight gain and prevalence of gestational diabetes.

Method

A randomized controlled trial was designed that included an exercise intervention group (EG) and standard care control group (CG). The exercise intervention included moderate aerobic exercise performed three days per week (50–55 minutes per session) for 8–10 weeks to 38–39 weeks gestation.

Results

594 pregnant women were assessed for eligibility and 456 were included (EG n = 234; CG n = 222). The results showed a higher percentage of pregnant women gained excessive weight in the CG than in the EG (30.2% vs 20.5% respectively; odds ratio, 0.597; 95% confidence interval, 0.389–0.916; p = 0.018). Similarly, the prevalence of gestational diabetes was significantly higher in the CG than the EG (6.8% vs 2.6% respectively; odds ratio, 0.363; 95% confidence interval, 0.138–0.953; p = 0.033).

Conclusion

The results of this trial indicate that exercise throughout pregnancy can reduce the risk of excessive maternal weight gain and gestational diabetes.  相似文献

Background

Although the efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and bladder training are well established, there is a paucity of patient centered models using these interventions to treat women with UI at primary level of health assistance in Brazil.

Objective

To investigate the effectiveness of a physical therapy intervention to treat women with UI in primary health centers.

Methods

Pragmatic non-randomized controlled trial in which women with UI from the community participated in a supervised physical therapy program consisting of bladder training plus 12 weeks of PFMT, performed either at home or in the health center. Outcome measures were amount and frequency of urine loss measured by the 24-h pad-test and the 24-h voiding diary; secondary outcome was the impact of UI on quality of life measured by the ICIQ-SF. Outcomes were measured at baseline, at the 6th and 12th weeks of the intervention and 1 month after discharge.

Results

Interventions reduced the amount (pad-test, p = 0.004; d = 0.13, 95% CI = ?0.23 to 0.49) and frequency of urine loss (voiding diary, p = 0.003; d = 0.51, 95%CI = 0.14 to 0.87), and the impact of UI on quality of life (ICIQ-SF, p < 0.001; d = 1.26, 95%CI = 0.87 to 1.66) over time, with positive effects from the 6th week up to 1 month for both intervention setting (home and health center), and no differences between them.

Conclusion

Interventions were effective, can be implemented in primary health centers favoring the treatment of a greater number of women who do not have access to specialized physical therapy.Trial registration: RBR-8tww4y.  相似文献

Background

With an ageing population and chronic illness the leading cause of death, challenges exist in meeting the healthcare needs of older people. For older people, care may be provided in subacute care services where, although the focus is on rehabilitation and optimisation of functioning, many older people will die.

Aim

To investigate end-of-life care provision for older people in subacute care.

Methods

A retrospective clinical chart audit of all subacute inpatient deaths in one year.

Results

54 inpatients died in subacute care and almost all had been transferred from an acute care setting. The mean age was 83 (SD = 9), patients had multiple diagnoses and were admitted for assessment or to establish a safe discharge destination. None were identified as ‘terminal’ on admission and none had an Advance Care Plan to guide care preferences. Prior to death, more than half (57.4%) received terminal care compliant with the Promoting Improved Care of the Dying (PICD) guideline. 53.7% were referred for specialist palliative care review, and despite a mean wait time of 0.6 days (SD = 0.8), 11.1% of patients died before specialist palliative care review. Documentation of communication with patients/family of the likelihood of death occurred in two key sequential time points; the first was information-related and the second decision-related. When these time points occurred impacted end-of-life care provision. Ambiguity in language used to communicate patient deterioration and dying with clinicians and family, impacted understanding and provision of end-of-life care.

Conclusions

Education is needed to aid clinicians in subacute care to identify patient deterioration and dying and communicate the likelihood of death to the multidisciplinary team and with patients and families. Nursing and allied health clinicians are well placed to have greater involvement in communicating patient deterioration and likely death.  相似文献

Objectives

this study aimed to identify the influence of health education about HIV/AIDS towards enhancing knowledge and HIV prevention efforts in household wives.

Method

A quasy experimental design with pretest and posttest nonequivalent control group study was conducted among housewives in Rumbai Pekanbaru, Riau Province from March to August 2018. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select 144 housewives. A total of 72 intervention groups and 72 control groups. The intervention group was given health education with videos and leaflets. A questionnaire that it tested for validity and reliability has been applied. The Paired-Samples T-Test and Independent Samples T-Test were applied to analyze data.

Results

There were differences in pretest and posttest preventive knowledge and prevention behavior scores on HIV in the intervention group (p-value = 0.000). However, there was no significant difference in prevention behavior in the control group (p-value = 0.0120). Based on this results, it can be concluded that health education can increase the knowledge and behavior of prevention of HIV/AIDS in household wives (p-value = 0.000).

Recommendation

The health education on HIV/AIDS counseling and testing are key interventions for reducing number of HIV/AIDS cases. It is recommended that housewives to conduct HIV status on health services, and for HIV program holders are expected to increase the frequency of health education by using attractive media and VCT mobile services in order to reach more housewives.  相似文献

Background

Insulin resistance is a determining factor in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Exercise is known to improve insulin resistance, but a systematic review of the literature is lacking.

Objective

This systematic review and meta-analysis focused on identifying evidence for the effectiveness of a structured exercise intervention program for insulin resistance in T2DM.

Methods

We searched MEDLINE via PubMed, CINHAL, Scopus and Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for reports of studies on fasting insulin, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (Homa-IR), fasting blood sugar, glycated hemoglobin and body mass index in patients with T2DM and healthy controls that were published between 1990 and 2017. Data are reported as the standardized mean difference or mean difference with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results

Among 2242 records retrieved, only 11 full-text articles were available for meta-analysis. Data for 846 participants were analyzed, 440 in the intervention group, and 406 in the control group. The mean difference for fasting insulin level was ?1.64 (95% CI; ?3.38 to 0.10), Homa-Ir 0.14 (?1.48 to 1.76), fasting blood sugar ?5.12 (?7.78 to ?2.45), hemoglobin A1c 0.63 (?0.82 to 2.08) and body mass index ?0.36 (?1.51 to 0.79).

Conclusion

The evidence highlights the effectiveness of a structured exercise intervention program for insulin resistance in T2DM with a moderate level 2 of evidence.  相似文献

Objective

The aim of this study was to identify the perception of students, lecturers and staffs on smoke-free campus policy.

Method

Samples, including 880 students, 102 lecturers and 209 staff, were taken from all faculties in Universitas Riau using convenience sampling technique. A survey was conducted for these respondents through the distribution of questionnaires. Information pertaining to demographics, smoking and non-smoking behaviors and experiences, and perceptions regarding smoke-free campus policy was obtained.

Results

It was discovered that 58% of survey groups and respondents were females, 84.3% were non-smokers, and 66.1% reported exposure to cigarette smoke in university campus every day or several days in a week. All groups reported that they were affected by cigarette smoking with no significant difference in the proportion (p = .540). The rate of students and lecturers were similar in terms of their agreements on smoking prohibition in campus environment (81.7% and 84.3% respectively), while it was different with staff (p = .004). Further ANOVA analysis revealed that there was a significant difference between groups regarding agreements on smoking prohibition (p = .007) such that staff differed from lecturers and students (p = .014 and p = .028), while lecturers and students showed no significant difference (p = .502). All groups strongly agreed on establishing a smoke-free campus (81.9% of students, 85.3% of lecturers, 77.7% of staffs) with no significant difference in their proportion (p = .079).

Conclusions

Interventions can be introduced to enhance support gotten from the staff group, however, majority of the students, lecturers and staffs were very supportive of creating a smoke-free campus. Therefore, there is a call to action for university leaders and decision makers to implement the policy.  相似文献

Objective

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of oral stimulation on breastfeeding on infants.

Method

This study uses the design of one group pre-test–post-test. The population was mature neonates aged < 14 days who were born without complications at a midwife clinic in Pekanbaru city. The sample consisted of 16 respondents. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling with criteria, mothers did not have breast problems and were willing to become respondents. The implementation of intervention was carried out by pre-test, 5 min oromuscular stimulation, then a 5-minute pause, then waiting for the next breastfeeding time and post-test. Breastfeeding ability is assessed with Latch score.

Results

The results of the univariate analysis showed that the majority of respondents aged 25–35 years (56.3%), the majority were housewife (87.5%), more than half were multiparous (62.5%) and most of the neonates were male (68.8%). The mean of Latch score before the intervention was 7.3 points and after intervention was 9.3 points. The results with the Wilcoxon test showed an increase in the ability of breastfeeding after an intervention of 2 point (p-value = 0.001).

Conclusion

Oromuscular stimulation can be suggested as an alternative therapy to improve breastfeeding ability in neonates.  相似文献

Background

Nursing workload remains an issue in current health care contexts. The use of quantitative methodologies, methods and tools to measure workload has not produced adequate data to inform workforce policy to resolve workforce concerns about workload.

Objective

This study aimed to identify the influence of both culture and climate as factors in nursing workload.

Methods

This research used an overall critical ethnographic methodology to investigate the real lifeworkload issues of nurses. Methods included fieldwork observations and informal discussions over a 3 year period and 11 in-depth interviews.

Results

The study identifies the impact of safety mandates on nursing workload as an invisible phenomenon within current workload methodologies. Such mandates add to nursing roles and routines, and become a ‘taken-for-granted’ activity that is not always directly related to patient care, nor is a visible factor in workload measurement.

Conclusion

Given that workload measurements are formulated on direct patient care activities, indirect and unrecognised activities may create additional nursing workload.  相似文献

Objective

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between spirituality and health status outcome in nursing home (PSTW Khusnul Khotimah) in Pekanbaru, Riau-Indonesia.

Method

This study methods was a cross-sectional study with 36 elderly people as samples and it was taken by total sampling technique. JAREL Spiritual Well-Being Scale was used to assess elderly people spirituality level. Univariate and bivariate use non-parametric analysis were performed to determine the relationship between elderly people spirituality and self-reported health status.

Results

Majority marital status of respondent (85.8%) were divorce with their couple. Seventy two point two percent elderly health status was not good and 52.8% (the results spiritual statement of indicates: When I was sick, I reduced spiritual welfare 33.3%, I cannot accept changes in my life 27.8%) of them have less spirituality. This study also found that the elderly people who has low spirituality level more likely have health problems. There was significant correlation between spirituality and elderly health status in nursing home (p = 0.035).

Conclusion

It was important to increase the elderly people spirituality to prevent health status degradation in elderly people in nursing home.  相似文献

Objective

Chronic musculoskeletal pain and disability is common in adults with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC), but validated outcome measures of its related disability are lacking. This study aimed to determine the content and construct validity of the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) for an AMC-appropriate low-back and lower-extremity pain-related disability questionnaire.

Methods

A mixed methods approach was used to investigate the nature of AMC-related low-back and lower-extremity pain and disability. We included 50 adults with AMC from an international arthrogryposis study. Participants completed 5 pain and disability questionnaires and an interview. Content and construct validity of the ODI in the AMC population was assessed by the proportion of participants who stated ODI domains during the open-ended interview and by R2 values and Pearson's correlation coefficients (r-values), respectively.

Results

The content and construct validity of the ODI were considered moderate to high for measuring low-back pain and lower-extremity disability in the adult AMC population. Participants independently identified many activities of daily living (67%), such as walking, standing, personal care, sitting, lifting and sleeping, already included in the ODI. R2 values were > 0.25 for all 3 measures, demonstrating the strength of construct validity of the ODI in individuals with AMC.

Conclusion

The ODI is a valid outcome tool for low-back and lower-extremity pain-related disability for patients with AMC. Upper-extremity issues were not addressed by the ODI, which will be further addressed in future research.  相似文献
