  4. 12. Shoulder pain after stroke: prevalence, contributing factors and consequences in daily life

    Author : Ingrid Lindgren; Rehabiliteringsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; sensory thresholds; range of motion; arm motor function; outcome; Stroke; shoulder pain; life satisfaction; participation; activities of daily living;

    Abstract : Post stroke shoulder pain, PSSP, is a common type of pain after stroke, but still further knowledge of this condition is needed. An increased knowledge of prevalence, contributing factors and impact on the individual’s life could enhance the possibility to find more effective treatments and therefore more studies are needed.

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mathematical models; biomechanics; range of motion; ankle injury; injury mechanisms; ligament failure; center of rotation; ankle and subtalar joints; ankle fracture;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to acquire better knowledge of foot-ankle injuries because of their increasing importance in car crashes. Three approaches were used: epidemiology, biomechanics and mathematical modeling. READ MORE

  6. 14. Early Physiotherapy in the Neurointensive Care Unit - Passive Physiotherapy Interventions

    Author : Annelie Thelandersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiotherapy; Brain injury; Stroke; Intensive care unit; Prone position; Range of motion; Continuous passive motion; Intra cranial pressure; Cerebral perfuison pressure; Haemodynamics;

    Abstract : Background: In critically ill patients, treated in the neurointensive care unit (NICU) because of severe brain injury or stroke, physical activities have been restricted to a minimum due to the potential risks of complications and adverse events. Nevertheless, passive physiotherapy treatments are widely used without conclusive evidence for their safety. READ MORE

  7. 15. Fractures of the distal radius : Factors related to radiographic evaluation, conservative treatment and fracture healing

    Author : Albert Christersson; Sune Larsson; Bengt Sandén; Karl-Åke Jansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are one of the most common injuries encountered in orthopaedic practise. Such fractures are most often treated conservatively, but surgical treatment has become increasingly common. READ MORE
