Article Ankilozan Spondilitli Bireylerde Hangi Solunum Eğitimi Daha Etkilidir: 360-Derece Ekspanse Diyafram Egzersizleri Mi, Standart Diyafram Egzersizleri Mi? Randomize Kontrollü Çalışma(2025-09-30) Urak, Özkan; Sari, Ismail; Gurpinar, Baris; Yeşilyurt, Seda YakıtAmaç: Solunum komplikasyonları genellikle asemptomatik olsa da Ankilozan Spondilit (AS) hastalarında önemli bir morbidite ve mortalite nedenidir. Egzersizin AS yönetimindeki kanıtlanmış faydalarına rağmen, geleneksel diyafram nefesi ile göğüs kafesinin tamamını hedefleyen çok boyutlu, yenilikçi yaklaşımların karşılaştırıldığı sınırlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışma, standart diyafram nefesi ile sensör destekli 360 derece ekspanse diyafram nefesi egzersizlerinin solunum fonksiyonu, hastalık aktivitesi ve fiziksel kapasite üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirerek bu boşluğu doldurmayı amaçlamıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: AS tanısı almış 50 birey, standart diyafram nefesi grubu (DG) veya 360 derece ekspanse diyafram nefesi grubu (360DG) olmak üzere rastgele iki gruba ayrılmıştır. Her iki gruba da altı hafta boyunca haftada iki kez denetimli egzersiz uygulanmıştır. Değerlendirilen sonuçlar arasında solunum fonksiyon testleri, maksimal inspiratuvar ve ekspiratuvar basınçlar (MIP/MEP) ve AS’ye özgü indeksler yer almıştır. Bulgular: Her iki grupta da işlevsel indeksler ve solunum parametrelerinde anlamlı iyileşmeler gözlemlenmiş, ancak gruplar arası farklar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmamıştır (p>0,05). Özellikle, DG grubunda FEV1/FVC oranında anlamlı bir artış (p = 0,017), 360DG grubunda ise FVC değerinde anlamlı bir artış (p = 0,007) saptanmıştır. Solunum kas gücü (MIP ve MEP) her iki grupta da anlamlı şekilde artmıştır (p<0,05). Sonuç: Bu randomize kontrollü çalışma, AS’de 360 derece ekspanse diyafram nefesi egzersizlerini değerlendiren ilk çalışmalardan biridir. Bulgular hem standart hem de sensör destekli nefes egzersizlerinin solunum ve fonksiyonel sonuçları iyileştirmede güvenli ve etkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu sonuçlar, fizyoterapistler ve klinisyenler için kişiye özel solunum eğitiminin AS rehabilitasyon programlarına entegre edilmesinin klinik önemini vurgulamakta ve hasta bakımını geliştirmek için esnek, kanıta dayalı stratejiler sunmaktadır.Article Predictors of Gross Motor Function Level in Spastic Type Cerebral Palsy: a Retrospective Study(Turkey Assoc Physiotherapists, 2024-12-23) Ayaz Tas, Seda; Yakıt Yeşilyurt, Seda; Birinci Olgun, Tansu; Danis, Aysegul; Olgun, Tansu BİRİNCİ; Yeşi̇Lyurt, Seda YAKIT; Yakit Yebilyurt, Seda; Taş, Seda AYAZ; Birinci, TansuPurpose: This study was conducted to identify the determinants of gross motor function in patients with spastic-type Cerebral Palsy (CP) who received physiotherapy from a single center for two years. Methods: One hundred and eight children with spastic-type CP (mean age: 6.43 +/- 4.83 years) were evaluated twice, before and after the two-year physiotherapy. The outcomes were the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Manual Ability Classification System (MACS), Communication Function Classification System (CFCS), and Eating and Drinking Ability Classification System (EDACS). Binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine whether factors such as age, sex, topographical distribution, and levels of GMFCS, MACS, CFCS, and EDACS could predict the improvement in GMFCS level after the two-year physiotherapy. Results: The odds ratio of improvement in GMFCS level was found to vary significantly with the topographical distribution, CFCS level, and EDACS level (p<0.05). Compared to the children with CFCS Level I, children with CFCS Level II, Level III, and Level IV were 0.001, 0.005, and 0.006 times less likely to improve in GMFCS level, respectively. Similarly, children with EDACS Level III and Level IV were respectively 1.605 and 1.548 times less likely to improve in GMFCS level compared to those with Level I. Conclusion: CFCS and EDACS were significant predictors of gross motor function level in spastic- type CP. Healthcare professionals can use CFCS and EDACS to predict the progression of gross motor function levels, thereby providing more appropriate interventions and more realistic predictions.Article Citation - WoS: 1Practices of Physiotherapists on the Risk of Falls and Prevention in Clients Aged 65 and Older: Online Survey Results(Dokuz eylul univ inst health sciences, 2024-01-31) Tuna, Hülya; Gurpınar, Barış; İlçin, NursenPurpose: Physiotherapists frequently interact with elderly clients. We aimed to determine the physiotherapists' practices for fall risk and prevention in clients at 65 years and older. Material and Methods: Seventy-two physiotherapists responded to online survey including questions about demographic and professional characteristics, the awareness and practices of physiotherapists on falling and preventing falls. Results: Ninety-one point seven percent of physiotherapists reported that fall risk should be determined in all clients at 65 years and older. Thirty point six percent of them stated that they evaluated the risk of falling in case of necessity, 83.3% stated that they did not use a standard assessment-treatment flow chart for risk of falling. In elderly clients with low or no risk of falling, 8.1% of physiotherapists; In elderly clients with high risk of falling 83.3% of physiotherapist applied a preventive physiotherapy approach to prevent falls. The rate of physiotherapists who provide education and advice on fall prevention to elderly clients with low or no fall risk is 67.9%, while 73.5% prefer assistive device reclamation in elderly clients with a high risk of falling. Conclusion: Interventions should be planned to improve fall risk awareness and practices among physiotherapists by following a standard assessment-treatment flow chart for their clients 65 years and older.Article Function, Pain and Dynamic Balance Before and After Kinesio Taping in Older Women With Knee Osteoarthritis: a Pilot Study(2022-06-30) Hantal, Sule Badıllı; Yeşilyurt, Seda Yakıt; Birinci, Tansu; Badilli, Feyza SuleObjective: The study aim to establish the effect of single-session Kinesio Taping (KT) application upon the function, pain, and dynamic balance in older women with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Materials and Methods: Thirty-women with unilateral knee (OA) were included. A single-session KT intervention was applied to the quadriceps-femoris and hamstrings muscles. All assessments were performed three times, before Kinesio taping, 30 minutes and 48 hours after taping. Functional level and pain were evaluated with the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and the dynamic balance was evaluated with the libra-computerized balance device. Results: Symptoms (p=0.001), pain (p=0.001), function-daily life (p=0.001), quality of life (p=0.01) subscale scores of KOOS and bipedal (p=0.005) and affected side (p=0.002) dynamic balance results showed statistically significant improvements among the three time points. Conclusion: A single session Kinesio taping application provided a statistically significant improvement and a short-term positive effect, which did not cause clinically significant changes in the function, pain and dynamic balances of elderly women with unilateral knee osteoarthritis.
